The Studebaker dealership Showroom was just diagonally across the street. I lived at 5 Locust and shared a driveway with them. My back yard ran the length of the Studebaker dealership rear parking lot at the west side and the width of the Mt Dennis Firehall parking lot on the south side. When the Firehall closed we would go in the back window and slide down the pole for hours.

Sergt. Major Rigglesworth has seen considerable military service. He was in South Africa three years with the Telegraph Engineers and
Mounted Police; four years with the Governor General's Body Guards, three years with the Medical Corp, and two years and three months in the present war —
twelve months with the Royal Canadian Dragoons and twelve months with the 126th Peel Battalion.
He was twice wounded and is only sorry he cannot fight any longer.
There are five brothers'in the Sergt. Major's family.
All volunteered to fight for the Empire.
The two youngest brothers have made the supreme sacrifice.
The oldest brother was severely wounded last winter. The other is with the 2lst Middlesex Regiment, now in France. The Major was first wounded in Belgium on July 17, 1915. He has been unable to do much since that time, but is now engaged on munition work.
