#OTD in 1847 – Horrific Report | Irish Genocide.

Lord Dufferin (a twenty-one year old student at Oxford) and the Hon G.G. Boyle publish a report after visiting Skibbereen, Co Cork. “The scenes we have witnessed during our short stay at Skibbereen, equal anything that has been recorded by history, or could be conceived by the imagination. Famine, typhus fever, dysentery, and a disease hitherto unknown, are sweeping away the whole…

Pagan Pride 2023

pull up a chair The weather for this years Pagan Pride Day Harvest Fair was excellent. Public transit was trouble free & Tim Ho’s sour cream glazed were the right snack on our walk down from the Dufferin station to the park where it was being held. I went, as I did last year, with my witchy friend L. She had come to my place to drop of a Mabon cake (beet & chocolate) before we subwayed over to…

“DUFFERIN CO. ASSIZES,” Grand Valley Star & Vidette. November 20, 1930, Pg 1. --- Jury Throws Out Slander Action—Cattle Thief is Given One Year—Judgment Reserved in Harkies vs. Lord Dufferin Hospital Case: ---- Dufferin County Fall Assizes closed at Orangeville on Friday afternoon, Justice Raney having been on the bench since Tuesday. The slander action brought by Mrs. Lottie Nixon, of Melancthon Township, against John Wallace, a neighbor, was concluded when the jury brought in a verdict to the effect that the jurors were unable to say which side was telling the truth, and recommended that the action be thrown out and each side pays his own costs.

The case against a young Mono farmer, Arthur Rutledge, charged with theft of three cattle from Hamilton McKim, of Camilla, was commenced on Wednesday. Harry Whittaker, formerly of Toronto, but who is at present servicing a term in Kingston Penitentiary, was the chief witness for the Crown and told of having driven the cattle to the Rutledge farm and then, in company with Rutledge, taking them to a Toronto abattoir and dividing up the proceeds, $139.

One year in the reformatory was the sentence meted out to Rutledge on Friday, the accused having been found guilty of the theft of three cattle.

Counsel in the Harkies vs. Lord Dufferin Hospital case, made three attempts to settle the action out of court, but was unsuccessful and the trial was completed on Friday. Justice Raney reserved his decision but will announce it within a month. The action was brought by Clifford Harkies, father of Ralph, a three-year old infant, who allegedly was severely scalded while a patient in the institution last June. The child was suffering from congestion of the lungs and on orders of Dr. C. I. Scott, steam treatment was applied.

Nurse Dynes swore that the outfit was working efficiently when she left the room. A few minutes later she heard a cry and discovered that the infant had met with the accident.

Royal Jade Restaurant located at 2100 Steeles Ave W, Concord After a visit to our favourite liquidator store, we stopped by Royal Jade Restaurant for a late lunch.  The ratings online were high and I hadn’t had Hakka food in a while so we decided to check it out.  Upon walking into the restaurant at around 2 p.m., I was surprised to see it completely empty.  Continue reading Untitled

XV Heavy seems their boat returning, weighted with a world of care. Oh, ye blind ones, none discerning what the spectral freight ye bear. Glad they hear the sea-beach grating harsh beneath the small boat's stem; Forth they leap, for no man waiting, but the black death lands with them.

...

IX Sad the search, and fearful finding. On the deck lay parched and dry men who in some burning, blinding clime had laid them down to die. Hands prayer clenched that would not sever, eyes that stared against the sun, sights that haunt the soul forever, poisoning life, till life is done

I started the kit so that the last one…
