The circumstances attending the accident are such as to need a little explanation, lest of wrong impression should get abroad.

Last Saturday Mr.. T. B. Mitchell was driving his Ford car along the road when he noticed deceased, driving a team of horses approaching. Mr. Mitchell stoped the car about 60 yards in front of the horses which did not appear to mind the car until they got right up to it, When they suddenly swerved to one side and through deceased to the ground. Everything possible was done but with no avail for he passed away on Sunday.

Mr. Sararas ha attained a ripe old age, being 74 years, 6 months, and 12 days old. The last 20 years of which he spent in the district where he died.

He was always an industrious hard-working man and success had reported his efforts. Highly esteemed but those who were intimate with him, his death will be regretted by the whole community.

He leaves a wife and grown up family.

Notes:

"I have a bit on Hannah. She married Frederick Yandt in Dec 15,1870 at Normanby, he was 56 and she was 24 years old. They had Jacob, Elizabeth, Martha, William (my gg great grandfather ) and Johannes. Sometime between 1877 when she became pregnant with Elizabeth and the 1881 census Frederick died ( I have the cemetery transcription and if it is the same Frederick he died 1880).

After his death in July 26, 1883 at Normanby, she married a John McLeod, son of Duncan McLeod and Ann McArthur. In the "Farm Lanes of Bentinck" history book. at the back it ha s a list of the cemetery transcriptions for the area and it lists a Mrs.Hannah McLeod 1845-1939 buried with John Yandt and his wife Elizabeth. I do not know if she had any children with John McLeod or not.

I also have Frederick Simon Yandt's military file and it lists a Mrs. Hannah McLeod as his mother and living in Indian Head Saskatchewan. When he enlisted in Feb of 1916 she was living in Neustadt, Ont and by October of 1916 she had moved to Oakre River Manitoba and then to Indian Head Sask. I don't have a Frederick listed as one of Hannah's kids but I may have missed one. I have another Hannah Yandt that married a Dan McLeod as well so I am not sure which one is the Hannah that is his mother."

New Dundee's Grand Old Lady Celebrates 98 Birthday, at Home.

(By Chronicle Correspondent)

NEW DUNDEE-New Dundee's "Grand Old Lady", Mrs. Hannah Sheard celebrated her 98th birthday at her home on Bridge St. on Tuesday. Despite the fact that she has been bedfast for over 6 years, the merry twinkle in her eyes reminds one of the fun-loving girl she must have been almost a century ago. Mrs. Sheard still takes a keen interest in the activities about her and is always pleased when her neighbors and friends call in to chat for a few minutes. As a special treat for her birthday this year, Mrs. Sheard is favored in having one of her granddaughters, Miss Mary Johannes of Saskatoon, Sask. visiting her. Miss Johannes arrived on Monday in time to help celebrate the occasion and in the evening a family gathering was arranged by relatives from Kitchener as is the custom each year on her anniversary.

Mrs. Sheard who is the oldest resident of the village and surrounding community, was born Oct. 21, 1849 on the old Sararas homestead, one mile east of the village which had been settled by her father, Andrew Sararas. The farm is now owned by Alfred Sararus, Mrs. Sheard is probably the only living person who can recall the village in its very early days. She vividly remembers the opening of the New Dundee "Lane", the road which adjoins the dam and is the connecting link between Main and Bridge Streets.

Her girlhood years were lived during the time people did most of their travelling on foot and walking to Kitchener or Haysville was considered to be all in a day's work. Her father purchased his first buggy when she was 17 years of age. Prior to that time, Mrs. Sheard made several trips with her parents in an open wagon to visit relatives in Hay Township, a distance of 60 miles which was travelled in one day.

Much of Mrs. Sheard's life was devoted to nursing and as a girl of 12 years she looked after her first patient. She was also noted for being an expert spinner When 20 years of age she married Arthur Sheard and they settled on the old Sheard farm in this community now owned by Herbert Becker.

Her husband passed away more than 60 years ago. Mrs. Sheard had four children, two of whom are still living, Mrs. Conrad Johannes of Saskatoon, Sask., and Titus Sheard of this village. A daughter, Mrs. John Lint died in 1927 and a son Alvin passed away a few years ago. She also has 13 grandchildren and 5 great grandchildren.

Honor Mrs. Sheard on Her 96th Birthday.

New Dundee's oldest resident, Mrs. Hannah Sheard, observed her 96th birthday on Sunday and in spite of the fact that she has been bedfast for more than four years still retains her cheerfulness for which she has always been known. Mrs. Sheard looks forward with keen pleasure to the visits with her friends and neighbors which are the highlights of each day to her since she is no longer able to be up and around. Possessing an active energetic disposition, Mrs. Sheard still loves to recall her early life when as a child she walked to the neighboring village of Haysville and to the town of Berlin, now Kitchener, in the days when most of the travelling was done on foot. Much of Mrs. Sheard's life was devoted to practical nursing and she vividly remembers waiting on her first patient as a girl of 12 years.

She was born Oct. 21, 1849, on the old Sararas homestead and one mile east of the village which was settled by her father, Andrew Sararas. At the age of 20, she was married to Arthur Sheard and they took up residence on the old Sheard farm northeast of the village which iis now owned by Herbert Becker. A widow for more than 50 years Mrs. Sheard has lived much of the time in her present home on Bridge St. She had four children, only two of whom are still living namely Mrs. Conrad Johannes of Saskatoon, Sask. and Titus Sheard who resides with his mother in the vilage. Mrs. Sheard also has 13 grandchildren and five great grandchildren. It is interesting to note that the well-known concert pianist, Thelma Johannes of Saskatoon, who often broadcasts over a CBC network is a granddaughter of Mrs. Sheard. A large number of friends and relatives called to extend congratulations to Mrs. Sheard on Sunday. During the day she was the recipient of numerous lovely cards.

The grim reaper has called from the midst of this earthly sojourn another well-known business man in the person of Mr. Aaron Surarus, who died at about 10 o'clock Saturday evening after a lingering illness. Mr. Surarus had not been in good health for some years and months ago his condition had necessitated his retirement from actual participation in his business.

Subsequently he was in business in New Hamburg, conducting an undertaking establishment in that town. Twenty-one years ago [1897] he removed to this city, where he has since conducted successfully his undertaking and picture framing business. As an able undertaker, Mr. Surarus was well-known, he understanding the art to the degree of the highest efficiency. Respected as an able business man, Mr. Surarus also enjoyed the good words and wishes of not a few friends. His amiable and conversative nature won many admirers. The loss sustained by his widow and children is also a loss to all who knew him. The city mourns his passing. On May 14^th, 1891 Mr. Surarus was married to Adriana Stengel of Freeport, who with two daughters Stella and Gertrude at home, survive him. Two brothers and six sisters also survive.

Kitchener to spend $730,000 to move heritage house, reuse as park washroom
NEWS 07: 04 PM by Catherine Thompson Waterloo Region Record

KITCHENER - Kitchener councillors voted unanimously Monday to spend $730,000 to move an 1861 heritage house and renovate it as a washroom and change room for the new South Kitchener District Park .

The stone cottage at 1664 Huron Rd. is right where soccer fields are planned in the new park at Huron and Fischer-Hallman roads. Drainage, grading and other issues make it difficult to move the soccer fields, so the house must either be moved or demolished.

While the price tag for moving the house seems high, said Coun. Scott Davey, "the reality is we're potentially saving $80,000 by reusing a heritage building ... I think this is as good a solution as we're ever going to get in a situation like this."

Reusing a heritage building is better for the environment, noted Coun. Yvonne Fernandes. "We're reusing materials that would go to a landfill if demolished," she said.
A heritage study determined the house was worth saving, since it is one of about a half-dozen stone houses built between 1850 and 1870 in a unique Scottish-English enclave in southwest Kitchener.

But councillors delayed a decision last fall when preliminary estimates suggested it would cost anywhere from $640,000 to almost $1 million to move the house, compared to $600,000 or $700,000 to build a new washroom. There was enough money in the park's budget to cover the cost of either option.

Firmer cost estimates presented on Monday say the house could be moved and renovated for about $730,000, while building a new structure would cost about $810,000, roughly $80,000 more than reusing the stone cottage.

Under the plan approved Monday, the stone cottage would be moved this year, but sit boarded up until 2022 when there is money in the budget to carry out the renovations to transform it into a washroom building. Crews would demolish modern additions and strip the interior this year, then move it to a concrete slab near a planned splash pad, playground and basketball courts.
The move would include the construction of a "haul road" along which the cottage will travel for about 200-300 metres.

The history of the cottage and the families that lived there would be explained in commemorative plaques, said Leon Bensason, the city's co-ordinator of cultural heritage. Having the building reused and recognized, in a well-used public space such as a park, is " a unique and good opportunity for the city," he said.


The Cober family, which lived in the house for many years, told council last September they weren't thrilled to see their old family home used as a public washroom. Coun. Kelly Galloway-Sealock voted in favour of the move, but asked staff to notify the Cober family before council the issue comes to council for ratification on Feb. 25.

The park is to be built in phases. The $10.3-million first phase of the park will include a splash pad and sports fields. The house will be repurposed as washrooms in the second phase, which is budgeted at $5.5 million and will also add trails and sports courts. Phase 3 will add a bike track and skateboard park for $3.2 million, with an indoor pool and arenas coming later.

Pte. Cober Gassed

A letter has just been received who was Jerome Cober, who from Pte. Jerome gassed on March 9 last, and is of interest to Hespelerites because the writer tells how he became gassed.. At the time of writing he was in No. 24 General Hospital, France. An extract from the letter follows:

"Old Fritz got me at last. He couldn't hit me with shrapnel or bullets, so he gassed me. He sent the gas over in shells early Saturday morning and I left the trenches the following Sunday noon. They carried me out. I was as blind as a bat, but I could talk all right.

Pte. Cober is a well known Hespeler boy, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Cober.
