This is the Orange Walk nearing the CPR Station in Chalk River about 1900.
Many of these settlers were Irish Protestants, and carried with them into their new location the Orange tradition dating back to the King William of Orange's reign in Ireland. An Orange Lodge was established followed shortly by the building of an Orange Hall in the area known as the Tennant settlement. The Orange Road received its name due to it's proximity to the Orange Lodge. This organization later moved into Chalk River as the settlers did and continued to celebrate the battle of the Boyne each 12th of July with parades etc

I think we had both gotten new suits and we went out to show them off! Sunday morning, I think it was, or afternoon. We thought we were pretty good I guess.
