About this listen
This week, Kate brings more reminisces from Marjorie Clarke. Marjorie brings her 1890's child's eye view to give insights to a local character, Fred Freeman. Fred had been the proprietor of one of the oldest original buildings in Haliburton village that still remains. Plus, Paul talks about the fears and rumours that led to anti-German and Austro-Hungarian sentiments that swept the world during WW1. The result was discrimination against loyal citizens and riots in some Canadian cities, including today's story of a pair of riots in 1916 Calgary, Alberta.
