A little waterfall came toppling down it amid maples, aspens, cedars and spruce. During breakfast of apple juice, sausages and eggs, I asked quest- ions of the waitress. She said the building has been in her family for many years, from her great grandfathers time. The owner now is Ned Basher from New York. Trains only stop at Rossport now on special order since the 1970's. Lorraine gave me the name of Mrs. Anne To- desco and stated that she knew a great deal of the history of the vil- lage. I wrote Mrs. To- desco and even though I sent her a_ U.S.A. stamped envelope she was kind enough to re- place it with a Canadian one. She wrote me some history of the Village of Rossport. The population of the village averages 150 to 200 according to the season. Formerly the livelihood was solely a commercial fish indust- ry, plus fur trapping. The fishing is down to only one steam tug now owing to the lamprey eel invasion and more tour- ists fishing and taking home tons of fish. There used to be about twenty fishing vessels opera- ting out of the village (W.D. and I didn't fish any but when we walked down to the dock, we could see a school of fish swimming in the deep water) "*Local people work on the highway now since it started construction in the 1930's" she con- tinued "Before then, the only entrance to the village was by train or boat. Some villagers work at the Terrace Bay pulp mill or on the rail- road". The school was closed in the sixties and the children bussed _ to Schreiber. There are two churches, the Roman Catholic and the Union church used by all pro- . testant religions. Both were built in the 1880's. In winter when the temperature is down to 50 degrees below zero or above, the islands in the bay continue to stand like sentinels, guarding the harbour and village. They remind -me of Psalm 121 "'I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills - The Lord shall pre- serve thy going out and thy coming in." p.m. Tony and Carmel Zborowski are pleased to announce the forthcoming marriage of their son Alain to Carol Squire. The wedding ceremony will take place on Dec. 8. 1984 at Holy Angel Church at 3
