In come the deer eh? At night, the old Chuckey (inc) supper that night 'cause the young lad was only sixteen years old. He went to the liquor store and bought twenty-six (inc).

Now tell her the story on the turkey. You don't have to let it go any further. The young lad, my son, he lives in Woodville and he's got horses and he was down here cutting the hay.

Oh yeah. Yeah I know a lad down here, his last name was Spence.

So we went to go down. Anyways dad went to reach up in the cow and couldn't get in him. So we told the guy, he was a German lad. He said, "Your calf is turned over in the cow, she'll never ever have it."

The young lad- he was so excited, oh the young lad shooting that deer eh? That big deer.

They, my oldest lad he knows what farm work is.

And this old lad died here. Chuckey-Wilt. We called him one-shot-chucky.

Yup. I can prove it to you. The young lad was home. Teeth marks are still in that gun stock.

Yup. My young lad's got a gun when we were kids. We'd take her out rabbit hunting...

And ah, so this guy said, oh my God, he said, and there's a good book available on this here, too. He said, "I can get you lots of young lads in Italy. All you got to do is pay their passage and teach them how to cut wood".

I can remember one time that was. I forget who come. Ah, Ed-Linden come, an old lad from over in Blairhampton come and helped us with that time. And a cow having a calf and the calf didn't come right and- and we went and got the old fellow with h horse and sleighs and brought him over here and he helped get that calf born.

Interviewer: Who's Harold? Speaker: Harold, he's a little lad that works for me.

Oh golly, yeah. That was something. I remember dad when we're young lads, young ah- he used to take us to the Casino, that was a big theatre in Toronto.

Oh gosh yeah. Yeah that's- yeah we up- young lads that ah, help and whoever helps more gets to taste the syrup.

Oh yeah, yeah we log in the winter. I cut seventy-five (inc) of wood and the lad that works for me drive my truck. He come and (inc) for me, just in the mornings he'd fill and then I'd skid them out and get them cut up and split and- our woods sheds are right full.

Yeah we did, we did, we really did. I remember night as a young lad and-that mum said "You better get a fish" and so down to the lake I went and I come back with two trout. One was four and one was five pounds.

And one old lad would sit there and keep turning the drill and this fellow would keep hitting it.

Five or six years. We kept the house heated and water on and-everything for the two old lads.

Yeah, but anyway, um, th-- um, Ian-Hamilton came and it was his first school and he was a big lad and he was tall and you-know lots of muscle and-everything, you-know? And of course, the first day of school, usually the other teachers let you come 'til noon hour, and then you had the rest of the day off, but Ian didn't.

And they didn't have to do dishes or-anything 'cause all the foam plates and-everything was donated. But that's what we do, that's what's special about this road. And there was a lot of new people that hadn't even met the young lad.
