This is the last of the post for 1942. I have a few from 1936 to post and then will take a break until I decide what I want to do next. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx The Eastern Chronicle, New Glasgow, N.S. Tuesday, 22 Dec 1942: Malcolm Murray for several years C.N.R. police officer at Stellarton and now a former resident in Bridgeville was a visitor in New Glasgow yesterday. Mr. Murray says that the rural life is the one worth while. Plenty of wood and coal and lots to eat, all as cozy as can be, he is truly enjoying life and looks as if it was good to him. Joe O'Brien, the successful driver is home from Toronto with his four horses, plus two others that he added to his string there for some of the local admirers. They are domiciled at the Trotting Park and do not seem much worse of the busy trip to Dufferin Park and back. Miss Katherine MacIssac left for Antigonish today and will go to St. Andrews to spend Christmas with her brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. A.H. MacPherson. Mr. MacPherson is manager of the Co-Operative Store at St. Andrew's. Collard Copeland, son of Mr. and Mrs. John E.
