4814	NEWSPAPER CLIPPING 1940 DAYTON Aug 26 - It is our sad duty today to tender the sympathy of our community to Mrs. Frank Preston and her daughters in the loss of husband and father. Thessalon, on Friday, lost one of her finest citizens when Frank passed on to receive his Master's "Well done! Good and faithful servant!" We have known him since boyhood, in fact he was an old pupil and we have never known anything but good of him. A genial chap, he was a general favourite in his varied lines of work: work which has always kept him meeting the public. For years he drove bus for John Jackson - to and from station to town. As a storekeeper he was always popular, and he was one car salesman about whom no wisecracks could be made. The car he sold was exactly as he declared it to be. Deer hunting this fall will not be the same to alot of the boys because Frank will not be there. Six of his best friends carried his casket today. Steve Mills, his partner in Mills Motors, Mac Clark, Doug McCrea, N. C. Smith, Tim Coyne and Fred Meyers.	PRESTON, Frank (I6)

4816	Newspaper Obituary: Mrs Allen, who died at her residence, Farewell, on the 23rd of March, 1905, was a native of County Sligo, Ireland, and was in her 72nd year at the time of her death. She came to Canada in the year 1852 [s/b 1853], and lived in this vicinity until her death. She was married over 50 years ago to her husband who, though a few years older than herself, is quite smart and healthy considering his age. She was of a mild and most kindly disposition, well and widely known, highly esteemed and respected by all who knew her. Of a family of eight sons, six survive her - viz: - William in Manitoba, Robert, in North Dakota, George, John, Joseph and Alfred at Farewell. She is also survived by one sister and two brothers - Mrs. Joseph Reid, near Mt Forest, Hugh Morrison, Farewell and Dr R. Morrison, M. D., Victoria, B. C. The funeral on Sunday, March 26th was largely attended considering the dreadful condition of the roads and occasional showers during the day. The pall-bearers were here four sons at Farewell, John Morrison her nephew and John Brooks, her near neighbour. Her remains were first taken to St John's Church, Farewell, which is quite close to the residence of the deceased, and the service was conducted by Mr. G. Gwilym, Rector of St John's Church, Farewell and Church of Good Shepherd, Riverstown. After the service, the funeral proceeded to Riverstown Cemetery, Mr. Gwilym also officiating at the grave.

John, who never married, ultimately inherited the Hall and with it the ancient title of Lord of the Manor of Linford and Wilds. Will in hand.He left everything to Mary Ann Webb his illegitimate daughter (who also never married and lived with him throughout his life) Bernard Allen has a sale catalogue of Stalham Hall. Death certificate in hand. He died on 30th November 1865 at Stalham. He was 77 years old and his occupation was given as Yeoman.

Webb 10th April 1866 Effects under 1500. The Will of John Craske Webb late of Stalham Hall,Stalham in the County of Norfolk Esquire Deceased who died 30th November 1865 at Stalham Hall Aforsaid was proved at Norwich by the oath of Mary Anne Georgiana Webb of Stalham Hall aforesaid spinster the sole executor. Mary Anne Georgiana Webb was born March 1816 (Linda Bourne) Worstead and buried Stalham 16 Feb.1894(LB) her mother was Mary Keeler(LB) Beryl Rogers: "JohnCrask Webb was adopted by a spinster daughter of a doctor who lived at Stalham Hall, he came from a poor family and ended up Squire and Lord of the Manor, quoting my Grandmother who may have known him as a child (Catherine Allen who married Walter Dew-Pettingill) "he was not a man to be proud of". He firstly had a daughter Mary-Ann Georgiana Webb daughter of a Mary Keeler, born Worsted May 26th 1816, she went to live with him at the hall, she never married either, and is buried with her father in Stalham churchyard. I did find the grave but the name is getting very hard to decipher." Beryl also says that there is a book "The Story of Stalham Hall" but nobody has tracked down a copy in recent years. (NB.PFD write NGS) My letter to N.& N.G.S. has resulted in a letter from a Mr.Peter Cooke who although he does not have the book I am searching for it seems that he knows the Hall very well,he lives in Stalham,and could probably give me details of it's history. I have written back to him and sent a printout of the details regarding John Craske Webb. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------	WEBB, John Craske (I26875)

4834	Not sure if this belongs to this James Johnston - from Ancestry. This brief history was written by James Johnston's grandson, J. A. Johnston. JAMES JOHNSON, in 1879 accepted a government appointment as a farm instructor at Crow Stand, Fort Pelly, in the North West Territory (Saskatchewan). His wife remained at their home in Billings Bridge, Ontario with the younger children and James, accompanied by his two sons, Robert and Adam and daughter Margaret, travelled by rail south of the Great Lakes to St. Paul. There they obtained a wagon, three Red River carts, horses and oxen as well as supplies, and headed north on the Pembina Trail to Winnipeg. There, restocking their supplies with enough salt pork and staples for the trip, they set out once more, northwestward, via the Dawson Trail, eventually intercepting the Pelly Trail and following it northward. Swollen streams hampered their travel - just crossing the Minnedosa River had taken a full day - a raft had to be constructed using the four wheels of the wagon to ferry the supplies across the swirling water. They arrived at Crow Stand thirty-two days later after existing almost entirely on a diet of salt pork and flapjacks. On finally reaching their destination, they constructed a small shack of logs with a pole roof packed with long prairie grass to keep out the rain. Their winter's supply of food was brought in a month after their arrival: 52 sacks of flour, 13 barrels of pork, 3 chests of tea, 3 barrels of granulated sugar, 100 pounds of baking powder, 4 barrels of dried apples, bags of raisins and currants, and boxes of rice and dried vegetables. There were over two thousand Crees in the Crow Stand vicinity, including three chiefs; "Caty" representing the Presbyterians, "Keys" the Church of England and "Keetchato" the Roman Catholics. The one schoolteacher was "Cub" MacKay. Teaching the Natives to farm, however, was somewhat a dismal success; believing their job was to do the hunting, most of the men refused to do farm labour. The women were left to do the farming as well as their traditional tasks; they threshed grain with flails and cleaned turnips and other vegetables for stews - to which sometimes even entails and rawhide were added. Buffalo were rapidly disappearing, food was a constant concern and even young boys, six to ten years of age were expected to help provide. They'd whittle dozens of willow branches to a sharp point, plant them firmly in the ground with the point slanted in the direction from which the rabbit would approach; then run into the bush barking like a dog, chasing the rabbits along the runs. As many as a dozen rabbits were sometimes pierced and killed in one drive. Four years after their arrival, James Johnson's teaching assignment came to an end. He and his two sons and daughter packed up their meager belongings, said farewell to their new friends, and left Crow Stand. They retraced their steps southward along the Pelly Trail to the point where it crossed the Boggy Creek, not far from where the creek emptied into the Assiniboine River. Here they stopped, looked around, liked what they saw and decided it was the perfect spot in which to settle and build a home. They set up a camp and James registered for homestead SW 28-26-29 (please note that at the National Archives, Land Records reflect that his name was spelled with a "t": Johnston). Felling logs to build a more permanent home before winter arrived, the three men hitched horses to the logs and pulled and floated them home, some from as far away as the Duck and Riding mountains. Beams and flooring for their house were cut using a sawpit. Logs were laid on a frame above the pit and, with one man above and another below; a saw was pulled up and down on a carefully marked chalk line and thus planks were made. Eventually, the log home was completed and Mrs. Johnson and the younger children arrived from Ontario. By this time the CPR had reached Moosomin; here they disembarked and were transported to their new home in a wagon. Pioneers leaving the end-of-the-line to seek homesteads were always welcomed at the Johnstons. Their home soon became known as a place where overnight accommodation and meals were available. It was referred to as the "Boggy Creek Stopping House".	JOHNSTON, James (I3373)
