8 HP Byers Star engine that the late Emil Jones gave to me for
being an ash monkey and helper. My two sons, Ben and Adam, are
pictured alongside me. I’ve been VP of the Mad River Steam and
Gas Show in Urbana, Ohio for the past tow years and we are having
fine shows for the way times are.
Mr. Westing and his 50 HP Case at the Central Alberta Antique
this year making is look like a 110 case. He nearly always had it
loaded down with young folks. The 1/3 size was one of two that came
over from Cam-rose and were dandies. The 1/3 Case and separator was
owned by Clarence Skaling, the other Case and sawmill was owned by
his partner.
