Lost A bunch of keys between St Joseph’s Hall and Edgar Brock’s.on Tuesday evening. Finder will please leave at the Journal office Stanstead Journal Nov 14 1912 Last Thursday the finder to a bunch of keys lost between Rock Island and Dufferin Heights was invited to return them to the journal office. By noon Friday three bunches of keys had been turnrd in and one of them was shortly afterwards identified by the advertiser. That is good advertising, but with the advent of snow the Journal cannot guarantee a continuance of such results. One would naturally infer that people were getting careless of keys out Dufferin Avenue way. At this season a little more caution is desirable . Stanstead Journal Nov 21 1912
