Lot 6, con. 12, Alex. McNab:--This is one of the most infamous characters in the township. Lot 7, con. 12, Jas. McNee:--This person is my old family Piper, to whom I granted a lot of land and deed, but never received any value. He has a large family of sons. Lots 18 and 19, con. 13, Alex. McDonell:--Originally granted these broken fronts and deeded for building a good inn and store for the benefit of the township and the public, which Mr. McDonell did, much for the comfort and accommodation of that part of the country. It is a pity that Mr. Allan should state what he is not perfectly certain of. Lots 20 and 21, con. 13, Michael Roddy:--This original grant was to one Walter Beckwith, under an agreement to build a comfortable inn for the accommodation of the public. In this he failed to cover what McNab had advanced; he sold the lot to one Michael Roddy, who is deeded for it. It is here particularly to be observed that McNab was obliged to make many sacrifices, and in order to encourage an infant settlement, was induced to make several gratuitous grants of land to encourage tradesmen to settle in this remote quarter. McNab cannot conclude these remarks upon Mr. Allan's report, without regretting much the spirit in which it is made or drawn up, and in more points than one, its total deviation from truth. For instance, obviously from a desire to deteriorate the value of the township, he states positively that there is no grist-mill in the township. Now the truth is there has been a very extensive mill establishment in active operation for these ten years past, both saw and grist, at Arnprior; that there has been a saw-mill in operation upon Waba River, for some time past, and a grist-mill erecting; also a third upon the very same creek (being reference to Mr. Hugh McGregor, who saw these mills frequently in operation). He takes also the liberty of remarking, under what consideration does Mr. Allan value the spot on lot McNab has built his cottage, at 15 shillings per acre?--by much the highest price he has valued (but which comes the nearest to the real value of any one he has valued), for MacNab most positively avers, and that without doubt, that the one-half of the township as settled is as good, if not better, than it.
