Recollection of Robert Mullen and Mary Scobie

Photo: Elizabeth (1908-1976) and Loretta (1910- )Mullin circa 1930

As told by Herb's cousin Loretta Leavoy (Mullin)

When I was quite young, my father took my sister and me to visit my grandparents were they lived at Haley's Station. We went by train from Braeside (where we lived) To Haley Station.

I remember of a man, who drove a team of horses and a high topped buggy called "The Stage", meeting the train and drove us to our grandparents farm. I remeber they lived in a log house, and my Uncle Dan and Uncle Henry was there.

I don't think my grandmother had very good health. My grandfather was a very kind man witha very white beard.

Elizabeth and I who sang together at home and at Sunday School, told our grandmother we knew some songs. So on Sunday afternoon, everyone put aside what they were doing and and listened to us. I know they enjoyed the singing and praised us and everyone seemed so happy.
This is a very nice memory I have of my grandparents.
