Greetings, my reading friend. How are you this week? May I offer you the caption of the photographs you just saw, my reading… Err, why the puzzled look?

Yours truly would like to begin this issue of our blog / bulletin / thingee with an apology. Contrary to the gentlepersons agreement agreed to many moons ago, I did not include an agricultural topic among those published in April 2022 in said blog / bulletin / thingee. I hereby remedy this failure on my part with what follows. Please rest assured that the what follows in question is actually quite interesting. Really. Edwin Delevan Tillson was born in March 1825, in Normandale, Upper Canada
