Coal oil was used for cooking in the boats and cottages at this time. The coal oil drum was in the shed behind the store and it cost 19 cents an Imperial gallon. One had to be very careful when filling American cans because they were smaller and sometimes you had ONE BIG MESS! The store also sold wieners and baloney at 39 cents a pound. Mayme provided provisions for the campers and yachtsmen, sold stamps and took campers' news for The Squ'iler. It was a busy little place, so, when William Atkinson had to have one leg amputated in later years, it seemed the natural place for him to 'hold court'. He sat to the left of the door where he would be out of the way, yet as accessible as possible. Everyone knew him and he greeted the campers as they entered the store. He sat, looking quite comfortable, in a large rocking chair. Many friends and customers would draw up a chair nearby and they would have a lengthy chat." from page 78 of "Presqu'ile" by Susan Brose & Bonnie Browne.8

    "WILLIAM H. HELMAN; (Article 1) Mr. Hellman was born in the City of Bristol, England in 1858 and with his brother, Mr. C. Helman, came to Canada when quite a lad 27 years ago. He first settled in Brighton and was married in 1881 to Miss Mary Lawlor, who with an only daughter, Mabel, survive him. For five years he resided in Newtonville, returning to Brighton in 1886. For many years he was in fellowship with the Methodist Church and was an Ex-president of the Epworth league of Christian Endeavor. He was an enthusiastic member of the Canadian Older of Oddfellows, having filled many of its most important offices, having joined the order in Oct. 1888, being a charter member of Presque Isle Lodge. For some five or six years he had been ailing in health, and for this time had been fighting the dreadful disease, consumption, which was gradually robbing him of strength and life. He passed quietly away on February, 11th, 1897. His funeral was very largely attended on Sabbath last, the town band, of which he had been a member, accompanying the procession, and the Oddfellows conducting the funeral service at the grave. The religious Service was held in the Methodist Church conducted by his pastor Rev. Mr. Watch.
    (Article 2) The funeral of Mr. W. H. Helman was held on Sunday, Feb. 14th, under the auspices of the Canadian Order of OddFellows. The brethren from Trenton, Colborne and Codrington attended in large numbers. Mr. Helman was one of the most active members of the order, beloved and respected by all. The band, of which Mr. Helman was a member for many years, turned out and the combination made one of the most imposing processions ever seen in the village. Mr. Lewis of Trenton marshalled the brethren in an easy and impressive manner. The service was held in the Methodist Church which was crowded to its utmost capacity thus indicating the regard for the deceased not only by his brethren but the whole community. The Rev. C. W. Watch preached an effective sermon to the living and, spoke in eulogistic terms of the departed. At the grave, the solemn services of the church and the order were read. The brethren who took part at the grave were J. Dyer, D. D. G. M., A. P. German N. G., and C. A. Lapp, P. N. G. On returning to the Lodge room, resolutions were passed thanking the pastor, choir and members of the band for their kindness." from pg. 004 of Newspaper Clippings, a collection donate by Shawnee Spencer to the Brighton Digital Archives, 2022.

Predeceased by his wife, Mr. Dowler is survived by three sons: Robert and Lloyd of Mulhurst, and Tom of Winfield, B.C.; nine grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.
