When our family moved to Brad¬ ford in 1965, we took up residence on Hurd Street. At the time, I was 15 years old, and looking for summer Not being able to bring our pets with us, I soon noticed a dog out in the yard at the comer of Church and Hurd streets. I finally went over, and met Mrs. George Gibson Green. We became friends immediately. Spending evenings there, I listened to many stories of Bradford past, and the grand old homes that made up Bradford society. Stories of gas-lit lamps, Hurricane Hazel, parties at “The Pines” (the Mark Scanlon estate), and the clearing of the marsh were some of the tales that provided an evening’s entertainment. Jessie Elaine Rae came to Bradford from Oshawa to play in an Easter cantata forming in the cantata was George Gib¬ son Green. He met Jessie, and told his fgririle!n ds that he was going to marry that Jessie Green and grandson Scott.
