Self Guided Tour
The Toronto Ghosts & Hauntings Research Society Present s… About This Document: Since early October of 1997, The Toronto Ghosts and Hauntings Research Society has been collecting Toronto’s ghostly legends and lore for our website and sharing the information with anyone with an interest in things that go bump in the night… or day… or any time, really. If it’s ghostly in nature, we try to stay on top of it. One of the more popular things for a person with a passion for all things spooky is to do a “ghost tour”… which is something that our group has never really offered and never planned to do… but it is something we get countless requests about especially during the Hallowe’en season. Although we appreciate and understand the value of a good guided ghost tour for both the theatrical qualities and for a fun story telling time and as such, we are happy to send people in Toronto to Richard Fiennes-Clinton at Muddy York Walking Tours (who offers the more theatrical tours focusing on ghosts and history, see Image Above Courtesy of Toronto Tourism www.muddyyorktours.com) We do also understand that at Hallowe’en, these types of tours can Self Guided Walking Tour of fill up quickly and leave people in the lurch. Also, there are people that cannot make time for these tours because of scheduling or other commitments. Another element to consider is that we know there are Downtown Toronto people out there who appreciate a more “DIY” (do it yourself) flavour for things… so we have developed this booklet… This is a “DIY” ghost tour… self guided… from Union Station to Bloor Street…. -

Initially a group of farms, the property was bought in 1742 by William Peters, an upper-class English lawyer who served as a land management agent for the Penn family. Peters designed and built Belmont Mansion, the finest example of Palladian architecture in America, and created extensive formal gardens surrounding the Mansion. With the coming of the American Revolution, Belmont Mansion passed to William’s son, Richard Peters, who served as the Secretary of War for the Revolutionary Army, Pennsylvania Delegate to Congress under the articles of the Confederation, Speaker of the Pennsylvania Assembly, Pennsylvania State Senator, and Judge of the United States District Court of Pennsylvania. During his residence, Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Lafayette, and other “Founding Fathers” visited Belmont Mansion. As an early environmental scientist, Judge Peters converted the Belmont Estate into a working model farm to promote scientific agriculture. -
Founding of the Episcopal Church, Title Page
Founding of the Episcopal Church A Series of Six Articles Plus an Epilogue In the Newsletter of All Souls’ Episcopal Church, Stony Brook, NY 2007-08 Tony Knapp The text of each article is in the public domain. All rights to the illustrations are retained by the owners, who are listed in the references. Founding of the Episcopal Church, Part I Note from the Editor This is the first in a series of six articles containing some background information about the Episcopal Church and the Anglican Communion that affects Episcopalians in the United States today. The topic is the founding of the Episcopal Church, and the time period of the story is the 1770s and the 1780s. The Revolutionary War forced at least a partial cut in ties of the Church of England in the United States with that in England. The process of thereafter creating a unified Episcopal Church in the new country involved surprisingly great differences in values, differences that at times must have seemed unbridgeable. It might be tempting to think that the formation of the church government ran parallel to the formation of the civil government, but it did not. The issues were completely different. In church organization some people wanted top-down management as in Great Britain, while others wanted bottom-up management as in the theory behind the new United States. Some wanted high-church ritual, while others wanted low-church ritual. Some wanted maximum flexibility in the liturgy, while others wanted minimum flexibility. The six articles describe the process of reconciling these values. -

A Primer on the Government of the Episcopal Church and Its Underlying Theology
A Primer on the government of The Episcopal Church and its underlying theology offered by the Ecclesiology Committee of the House of Bishops Fall 2013 The following is an introduction to how and why The Episcopal Church came to be, beginning in the United States of America, and how it seeks to continue in “the faith once delivered to the saints” (Jude 3). Rooted in the original expansion of the Christian faith, the Church developed a distinctive character in England, and further adapted that way of being Church for a new context in America after the Revolution. The Episcopal Church has long since grown beyond the borders of the United States, with dioceses in Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador (Central and Litoral), Haiti, Honduras, Micronesia, Puerto Rico, Taiwan, Venezuela and Curacao, and the Virgin Islands, along with a Convocation of churches in six countries in Europe. In all these places, Episcopalians have adapted for their local contexts the special heritage and mission passed down through the centuries in this particular part of the Body of Christ. “Ecclesiology,” the study of the Church in the light of the self-revelation of God in Jesus Christ, is the Church’s thinking and speaking about itself. It involves reflection upon several sources: New Testament images of the Church (of which there are several dozen); the history of the Church in general and that of particular branches within it; various creeds and confessional formulations; the structure of authority; the witness of saints; and the thoughts of theologians. Our understanding of the Church’s identity and purpose invariably intersects with and influences to a large extent how we speak about God, Christ, the Spirit, and ourselves in God’s work of redemption. -

Toward 1756: the Political Genesis of Joseph Galloway
By Bruce R. Lively Los ANGELES COUNTY MUSEUM OF NATURAL HISTORY TOWARD 1756: THE POLITICAL GENESIS OF JOSEPH GALLOWAY T HE PARTNERSHIP formed in 1756 by Benjamin Franklin and Joseph Galloway dominated assembly politics in pre-Revolu- tionary Pennsylvania and influenced both of their careers. Together they transformed a weak association of Quaker representatives into the most powerful assembly party in America, challenged the pro- prietors with a sophisticated campaign for royal government, and offered daring solutions for the turbulent problems of Anglo- American relations. But their association has perplexed scholars because Franklin's voluminous papers, personal charm and staunch patriotism seem to overshadow the accomplishments of his younger partner. Galloway's sparse correspondence, abrasive ways, and eventual flight as a Tory also detract from his importance as a leader in his own right. Galloway emerges in Pennsylvania politics as an inexperienced newcomer who admired Franklin and matured only under his tutelage. Most historians view him as a "bland" or "narrow" intellect and see little need for examining his origins to determine what assets he contributed to the powerful alliance.' This is unfor- tunate because Galloway was an independent thinker of exceptional 1. Benjamin H. Newcomb, Franklin and Galloway: A Political Partnership (New Haven, 1972), pp. 7-8; William S.
