Land & Property:
The Ashby home, now in 1969, belongs to Morris, son of John Ashby - Lot 22 of the 10th and 11th concessions. To the left hand side, high up from Bolton Creek, runs the old 11th concession known as the MacKay line, because of two brothers by that name who owned a double section of land. It still goes by that name.

(There was) A log boarding house, once owned and assumed to be built by Sandy Bain, who owned a mill by the Bolton Creek, operated by Jack Bolton. The first mill to be built in what was originally called Bolton's Mills, then changed to Fallbrook. It has been assumed this log building was used as a store as well as a boarding house, as there were shelves and partitions built in, similar to stores in those days when William Asby and his wife Charlotte Morris, moved there. Prior to that Bill Gallagher had lived there.

William Ashby had lived in the McDonald house (now in 1969 belongs to Roy Beach) then in Drummond, from there to what was known for years as the Murray House, but had at that time (the Murray's time) been down on the banks of the Fall river near John Blair's.

William Ashby bought the Gallagher property and house from Bill, consisted of 130 or 140 acres.
The family were Jim Ashby 1887, John Ashby 1899, Bill Ashby, Lizzie 1891, Lottie, Esther.

William Ashby died in 1913. His son John lived with his mother and worked the farm.
Jim Ashby married Bessie Thompson.
Lizzie married Herb Gallagher.
Mae married John Watt.
Lottie married Herb Watt.

In 1927 John Ashby with Mick Flood as carpenter built a large house directly behind the old one.
In 1928 Mrs William Ashby died.
In 1932 John Ashby marrried Lillian North, daugher of Mr and Mrs Thomas North from the 11th line, Bathurst, previously from Bennett's Lake.
They had 2 sons, Morris 1932 and Ivan 1939; one daughter and one son died in infancy.
Morris married Shirley Burke in 1959.
Ivan married Phyllis Foster.

In 1965 John Ashby died, Lillian moved to Perth, Morris and family moved from the Watt farm at Playfairville, which he had bought, to the home farm and lives there with his wife and one son and two daughters.
Besides farming, Morris has worked for ---- years with the County.

Mr. William Ashby
A life-long resident of Bathurst, in the vicinity of Fallbrook, was Mr. Wm. Ashby. Death summoned him away last Thursday, March 13th, after an illness with pneumonia.

For two years past heart trouble had given him much annoyance, and it was thought by his friends who were closest to him that this affection of the heart would be the cause of death. But, strange to say, it proved altogether otherwise, for the attack of pneumonia developed strongly and quickly proved fatal.

Wm. Ashby was born in Bathurst 51 years ago. His occupation waa farming, which he followed with much success. Twenty-eight years ago he married Charlotte Morris. There are six children, all at home - James, William, John, May, Elisabeth and Lottie. Anglican in religious matters and Conservative in politics Mr. Ashby led a consistent and honorable life, true to his church and party. The funeral last Saturday from Fallbrook to Playfair cemetery was largely attended, Rev. T. L. Aborn conducting the services.

The Watt Murder Case!
Acquittal of Prisoner!
This was an indictment against George Watt, Jr, for the murder of his grandmother, Jane Campbell, an old woman living, at the time of her death, with George Watt, Sen, the father of the prisoner.The circumstances tending to establish the guilt of the prisoner being of a purely circumstantial nature, every effort was made on the part of the Crown, both by D Fraser, Esq, the County Crown Attorney, at the preliminary examination, and by J Deacon, Jr, Esq, the Crown Counsel, on the trial, to supply all the links necessary in the chain of evidence to afford a fair presumption of the guilt of the accused. Plans showing the section of the country in which the alleged murder took place, and of the spot in which the body was found, were prepared from actual survey and produced on the trial. The trial, from the large number of witnesses examined, occupied more than two days, but the ingenuity and ability displayed in the examinations of the witnesses by the Crown Counsel as well as in the searching cross examinations of W M Shaw, Esq, Counsel for the prisoner, rendered it anything but tedious or uninteresting, while the addresses of both Counsel were masterly in the comprehensive manner of dealing with the long train of circumstances given in evidence on each side. Seldom has a trial of this nature presented greater difficulties and seldom have such difficulties been handled with equal skill and ingenuity. The jury, after a very able and impartial charge from the learned Judge, retired to consider their verdict, and after some hours brought in the verdict of "Not Guilty."

The following is as brief a statement as can be given of the evidence.
George Watt, Sen, sworn - Am father of prisoner; I examined the hand of deceased on the Monday morning before her death and she had no ring on then.
**Information found on Paper of Record
