It should be stated that Mr. Jacob Brooks carried the first mail from Toronto to Markham right through to Uxbridge and Mariposa Township, which he continued for over twenty-one years. He was a native of Devizes, Wiltshire, England, and came to Canada before the War of 1812- 14, in which he took a part. During the Rebellion of 1838 his son, Peter, now deceased, carried the mails at the time they were stolen by the Rebels. The sword is in the possession of the family which was carried by Mr. Brooks at the time. He was a man highly respected and very upright in all his dealings. He was a strong Conservative in politics
