Interviewer: Where were they when they were touring around? Speaker: In Virginia. Interviewer: Oh, they were in Virginia sorry. Speaker: Yeah. Interviewer: Keeping it straight.

He just sa-- remembers seeing a glow of this headlight obviously. The other train coming around this rock cut. Anyway, they hit, that's all he remembered. He woke up in a fence. It catapulted him right out of the thing and right out of the rec really and into a wire fence. So he had a sore back and a few sprains but he walked away from it. The rest were all killed.

I still remember the one ah fellow that was helping him ah he was chasing us. We ah swung over top of the wire fence and he didn't realize and he was coming full tilt after us and he tried to jump it and his feet caught and how he didn't break his neck because he just went (non-lexical sound) right up (laughs)-

And ah this one guy I yacked with quite a bit and ah he's (inc) the odd thing to- to me after we moved and got our own place

I'm six-and-a-half years older than my wife so I was gone when she started. But I met her through a church ah, group that was called in those days Young-People's and she went to United-Church in Manilla, a small church which is closed now and now we go to the United-Church up the hill, it's a large church and that's where I was christened in nineteen-thirty-seven and we were married in her church in nineteen-sixty-four but it's been closed now for about eight years so- Her mother is still living and she's ninety-two and she lives in a house in Manilla.

And I think that was only a one-year term and, um, being in the minor hockey and the Boy-Scouts and then I was um- um a member of the Beaverton-United-Church women and I was also in the Beaverton Presbyterian church choir and I also, ah- attended the Beaverton and Gamebridge young people's group, um, in the nineteen-fifties, I would think.

W-- well, we had baseball and hockey. Ah church and young- church and young people's. Young people's group that met once a month I guess. Ah for religious reasons but also for entertainment and enjoyment, which was ah- which was good.

Speaker: No no, and we always went um, to Young-People's together. Interviewer: Oh. Speaker: Young-People's- they used to have Young-People's in the church group. Interviewer: Mm-hm. Speaker: And I went toyoung-People's in Toronto too so, that was sort of as a common thing and- you-know?
