This photo was taken at the 1958 Carrick Centennial and Mildmay Old Boys Reunion. Six year old Dan Durrer is pictured with the goat. The man pictured in the background is thought to be Willard Siegner.  Thanks Dan for sending in the photo!

This photo was brought into the Town Crier with the hopes that someone might recognize the building. The sign on the post (as shown in the close up photo) indicates that the building was in Mildmay and the posted speed limit of 12 miles per hour certainly meant for some slow moving traffic! Any information would be appreciated… thanks to Chuck Wendt for sharing the photo with us.

A peek from the Town Crier’s February 16, 1973 issue – Mildmay residents and local organizations were concerned over the condition of the above store on main street and had requested Village Council to see that something was done “before someone got hurt”. Better known as “Howard’s Grocery Store”, the windows had been broken leaving loose jagged pieces and a shopper received a flat tire from the pieces of glass around the building.   – Town Crier photo
