  • Samuel Pedlar Manuscript
    Samuel Pedlar Manuscript Transcribed from a microfilm of the original By Sharon Stark & Margaret Egerer July/August 1970 Samuel Pedlar Manuscript This small collection consists of material collected and compiled by Samuel Pedlar (brother of the founder of Pedlar People, a prominent Oshawa industrial establishment). It covers the period 1790-1904, and includes: notebooks; a map of Lake Simcoe watershed; photocopies of clippings; a typescript copy of an 1878 census of Oshawa; a copy of the Oshawa Vindicator, 1894, containing industrial history; and manuscript and typescripts copies of "From Cornwall to Canada, 1841", being facts collection by Sam Pedlar and rewritten by Charles H. Wethy (Toronto), regarding the Cornish immigration to Canada. The material was purchased from Samuel Pedlar (Oshawa) in May, 1904 and May, 1905, and borrowed from Mrs. Oscar Mills (Oshawa) in April, 1963. Dec. 10, 1969 R. Nickerson la FRAME 1 Clinton, November 21, 1894 S. Pedlar, Esq. Toronto Dear Sir: Your letter of the 9th inst relative to the name of Oshawa was duly received. I have been studying the question at this time suggested in Mr. Bateman's letter but find various difficulties. An interpretation not mentioned by him, but offered by good authority makes the word mean FRAME 2 "ferry him over." The word in Indian (i.e. Ojibway) would bear that interpretation: but how about the local application? I know little of Oshawa except what I learn from the directories. There mentions Warren Creek as a stream flowing through the town. Would this creek before it was bridged have required a ferry? And do you happen to know if there was once a ferry at Oshawa? Next, then an Indian village at or near the site of the present town? If you can give the information on these points I may be better able to find a satisfactory answer to your inquiries which I shall be happy to do.

  • SRHE Newsletter
    SRHE NEWS NO 2 May 2010 The world to come This issue of SRHE NEWS will be circulated just before the UK general election on 6th May. The financial prospects for UK higher education seem bleak, whatever the election result, and this reflects the situation in much of the developed world, as ‘Cutswatch’ in this issue shows. Echoing 1997’s election-straddling Dearing Inquiry, Labour and Conservative parties have postponed the difficult question of whether to raise undergraduate fees by commissioning a review which will not report until after the election. Liberal Democrats plan to phase out fees and the National Union of Students has persuaded 1000 Parliamentary candidates of all parties to oppose fee increases. But all parties talk of public expenditure as if it were synonymous with ‘waste’, higher education has already taken a financial hit, and the Institute for Fiscal Studies estimates that HE must take a further 24% cut to make the parties’ budget arithmetic work. Gloom abounds, but let us take a longer and broader view. On 22/23 April SRHE and the Council for Industry and HE staged a seminar at St George’s House Windsor on the theme of Trust, Accountability and the World to Come. Educationists and industrialists explored not only our difficulties but also our responsibilities and our opportunities in the post-credit-crunch post-election world to come. The discussions emphasised that as we enter difficult years of restricted funding, growing workload pressure and (perhaps) higher student fees, it will help to stay focused on why we do what we do, and what matters most.
