Download or read book The Annals of the Town of Guelph written by C. Acton Burrows and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-13 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Annals of the Town of Guelph: 1827 to 1877 In the preparation of this little work, the object has been to give, as succintly as possible, a general outline of the history of the Town of Guelph, with some reference to the principal events which have, during the titty years of its existence, absorbed the public attention. That many matters, which might be of interest to some of the older resi dents, have been omitted, will be seen at a glance; but this has been done for what were considered, after careful reflection, to be good and sufficient reasons. In the earlier years of the settlement, as is the case in all newly settled districts, many things occurred which, under more favorable circumstances, could not have happened, and which, while they formed fertile themes of gossip at the time, it would serve no good pur pose to reproduce now, even if all that is said to have taken place could be substantiated, which is far from being the case. In fact, so con tradictory are the recollections of some of the early settlers with regard to many alleged events, more especially in reference to matters of a pri vate and personal nature, that it was felt to be the wiser plan to reject the great bulk of these traditions, and to adhere to what could be reasonably relied upon as being the truth. Had even this been all made use of, the work would have grown to at least ten times its present size, and would, probably, not have given so much satisfaction as it is hoped will be afforded now. On the other hand, there may be, and doubtless, are some things omitted more worthy of notice than many of the events referred to, and for this defect it is hoped the reader will show some in dulgence, in consideration of the great difficulty which attends the glean ing of information relating: to times so long past, when few or no records were kept of even public proceedings. All that persevering effort and discriminating research could do to make the work reliable, has been done, and though some may feel disposed harshly to criticise it, the gen eral public, it is hoped, will extend to it a generous reception.

Excerpt: ... in the management appeared to be bent on a policy of " masterly inactivity," doing nothing which could by any means be postponed till the future, the consequence being that money was scarce and a general depression brooded over the entire settlement. Among the works which was forced upon them, in self-defence, was the completion of the grist mill, which Mr. Galt had commenced; for, without it, the hold the Company had on the farmers, as their bankers and general agents for the sale of their produce, and for almost every other communication with the outsice world, would pass into other hands. Accordingly they set to work, in a dilatory, half-earnest sort of a way, to get the mill into running order. Mr. Strickland, who was then at Goderich, was instructed to engage a miller who had come there--an American, and said to be characteristically shrewd and cunning--with whom he started for Guelph in the Spring, but there is no record of h1s having arrived, or if he did, of his having worked at the mill, for the builder and practical miller was Horace Perry, of Port Hope. The building was a substantial frame structure, containing every appliance for gristing, with three run of stones and ample store-rooms. In a short time the premises passed into the hands of Mr. James Allan, father of Mr. David Allan, the late owner, who from time to time made additions, until, in course of time, the frame was taken down to make room for the present stone buildings, and removed to a farm on the York Road, where it still stands, being used as a barn. When Mr. Allan purchased the mill, he put in another run of stones, making four runs in all, three of which were used for gristing and one for chopping. In 1835 he built a distillery in connection with the mill, and...

Book Synopsis Canadian Economic History by : M.H. Watkins
Download or read book Canadian Economic History written by M.H. Watkins and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2000-02-17 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Contemporary methodologies include the "cliometric" style of historical analysis, econometrics, labour and regional study, and the changing parameters of government spending and public finance. The juxtaposition of classic theoretical statements with works by "outsiders" such as G.S. Kealey, B.D. Palmer, R.T. Naylor, R.E Ommer, among others, makes this a solid yet innovative record of the progress in economics over the last forty years. Canadian Economic History remains an essential classroom text.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More of a Man presents the only known diaries of a skilled craft-worker in Victorian Canada: Andrew McIlwraith, a Scottish journeyman who migrated to North America during a tumultuous period marked by economic depression and early industrial change. McIlwraith's journals illuminate his quest to succeed financially and emotionally amidst challenging circumstances. The diaries trace his transformations, from an immigrant newcomer to a respected townsman, a wage worker to an entrepreneur, and a bachelor to a married man. Carefully edited and fully annotated by historians Andrew C. Holman and Robert B. Kristofferson, More of a Man features an introduction providing historical context for McIlwraith's life and an epilogue detailing what happened to him after the diaries end. Historians of labour, gender, and migration in the North Atlantic world will find More of a Man a valuable primary document of considerable insight and depth. All readers will find it a lively story of life in the nineteenth century.
Book Synopsis The Canada Company and the Huron Tract, 1826-1853 by : Robert C. Lee
Download or read book The Canada Company and the Huron Tract, 1826-1853 written by Robert C. Lee and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2004-08-20 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canada Company was responsible for the opening and settling of over two million acres of land in Upper Canada. Author Robert C. Lee focuses his attention on the extensive parcel of land on the shores of Lake Huron that became known as the Huron Tract. His comprehensive research explores the underlying forces leading to the formation of the Company, the intriguing mix of people charged with responsibilities for the Company and the overall impact of its operations, leading to its present-day legacy. The politics of the day, coupled with diverse and colourful personalities – such as John Galt, Tiger Dunlop, William Allan, Thomas Mercer Jones, Frederick Widder, Sir Peregrine Maitland, Bishop Macdonnell and Bishop Strachan – introduce an interesting blend of vision, intrigue, mischief and day-to-day survival strategies that make for compelling reading. Add to this the shareholders perspective of the Company versus the settlers perspective and you have a fascinating glimpse of pioneer conditions. Included are descriptions of early towns such as Guelph and Goderich, as well as background on the Huron Tract township names. "Robert Lee’s outstanding book brings to life the unusual assemblage of characters who were instrumental in the development of Upper Canada’s largest private settlement scheme – the Huron Tract. Their relationships with each other, and especially with the Canada Company for which many of them worked, make a great story." – Lutzen Riedstra, Stratford-Perth Archivist "Robert Lee has vividly recreated the personalities and the political intrigues that were part of the Canada Company’s operation – the largest one of its type in Ontario’s history. The most comprehensive work to date on this fascinating era, this book is eminently readable and a must-have for history lovers. – Ron Brown, author of Ghost Towns of Ontario

This book was released on 1933-12-15 with total page 854 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

The volume divides the period into two eras, 1783-1850 and 1850-85. The basis of classification of entries is by topics and geographic sections. It is hoped that the material which follows will amplify and illustrate the blend of materialistic and non-materialistic factors which has determined the nature of Canadian history and will allow students in Canadian universities to study with some degree of fullness the development of the economic institutions of their native land.
