After all had assembled, Overman Bernie MacLellan asked the guest of honor to step forward. He then addressed Mr. Weir in a nicely worded speech, expressing the regret of the company and employees that the harmonious relations which had existed between them must come to an end. Coupled with their regret at his departure, was a feeling of pride in the fact that he was willing and ready to fight again for King and country. The friends assembled wished him every success. Overman Matt Mahoney then presented him with a handsome military style money belt. Mr. Weir, in his own witty manner, thanked the boys for their many expressions of goodwill and the lovely gift. All joined in singing "For He's A Jolly Good Fellow." xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx INDIAN MILL STONES FOUND While clearing out a woodlot at College Grant, near River John, Victor Langille, of West Branch, discovered two large stones, which are believed to be Indian relics. One stone has a reproduction of an Indian head on it. The two stones, almost buried in moss, stand about two feet high and weigh about 150 pounds altogether. They were discovered about four feet apart. The surface of one stone has a ball like protuberance which fits exactly into a depression in the other stone and on close examination by Mr. Langille and others with him at the time, it is believed that the stones were used as mill stones by the Indians many years ago for grinding corn. The Indian head on the larger stone may have resulted from a freak rock formation but it is believed to have been carved. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Carolyn Wallace
