THE OTTAWA CITIZEN MONDAY, JULY 13, 1987 D5 Farm From page D1 story: Rest for the weary It was to encourage people to move away from the water that the Opeongo Road was built. If you want to find its beginnings today, you have to know where to look. But with a minimum of coaxing, Clayton Scharfe will take you out to his cow pasture to show you. There are two parallel ditches, and if you use your imagination to get rid of the trees and brush swampy areas; one day, while Ginna's husband John was trying to push over a tree with a bulldozer, one tree just wouldn't be budged. When it was finally pushed over they saw why.

"All the roots of that tree had grown up around the cedar logs of the corduroy road," said Ginna. How a bulldozer would have been welcome a century ago; many settlers went in with little that have grown up, you can see how it would have run right down to the river. And there's a spot, just behind the rebuilt pioneer house inhabited by the Scharfes' daughter Gin-na and her husband and son, where some of the original corduroy road remains, hidden undera thick carpet of greenery. They made a corduroy road by laying down logs side by side over more than they could carry. Not that settlers couldn't be colorful about their trials.

A 1955 booklet, recalling the early days of the parish of St. Bruno-de-Guigues near Lake Timi-skaming recalled in rather curious terms one of the early settlers' major problems: "On the trails of the African jungle, the traveller fears the elephant's trunk; here, the pioneer fears the mosquito's trunk which sucks up his blood and lights fires in his veins, day and night And then there is the black fly which with its pincers tears the skin, and there is the sand fly which burns. "We, in 1955, when on our paved roads we drive comfortably seated in the upholstered seats of our luxurious automobiles, let us see what the old settlers gave us." people were trying to sell logs." would come up with an axe and very little else. They would settle on a piece of land and they all wanted to be on the water." Social Notes Anniversaries Engagements I rp 1 )''.
