Description : John Metcalfe had never felt in quite his former good health since a seizure overcame him near his home in Bradford about a couple of years ago, yet he had been about and appeared to be a remarkably well man for his age. Recently he had been with his son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Ivan Metcalfe, on the farm adjoining Bradford, and he was in Bradford on Tuesday afternoon, September 2. A few hours after returning home he became ill and passed away the following day. Born on the old Metcalfe homestead in West Gwillimbury, in the Hollows district, Mr. Metcalfe had spent his entire life in the township and Bradford. In 1905 he moved from The Hollows to the Scotch Settlement and in 1920 purchased the farm on which his son, Ivan, now resides. He married the former Charlotte Tindall at Tottenham, who survives him, as do two sons and four daughters, namely, Mrs. Wm. Jelly (Lila), R.R. 2, Bradford; Ivan, Bradford; Misses Pearl, Ruby and Laura Metcalfe of Toronto; and Clarence of R.R 1, Bradford. Mr. Metcalfe is also survived by one brother, Herbert R. Metcalfe of Cambray, Ontario. He was predeceased by three brothers and two sisters, namely, Dave, William, and Bolton Metcalfe, Hannah (Mrs. T. McAfee) and Elizabeth (Mrs. George Bell). Mr. Metcalfe farmed in the township until his retirement to Bradford in 1937. He was in his 89th year, and was a member of the United Church. The funeral was held on Saturday afternoon from the Lathangue-Kilkenny Funeral Home in Bradford. Rev. F. G. MacTavish conducted the services and interment was in Mount Pleasant Cemetery.Six grandsons acted as pallbearers, namely, Lorne, Earl, Edgar, Allan and Donald Metcalfe and Murray Jelly.

The old Hollows schoolhouse on the Middletown Sideroad of West Gwillimbury. In 1863, this school was built by John Garbutt on his lot (Con. 12, lot 11) so his children would not need to walk as far. The school burned down in 1888 and a new, brick one was erected very soon after by William Bingham (pictured here), with William Tindall as the first teacher, later minister in the Methodist church. The new school opened September 29, 1888 with celebration and games. Like many around it, this school was closed and sold in 1960, though the building later became the Hollow Community Centre. The renovated school house is currently the home of Mr. and Mrs. George Skitteral. The mature maple trees on the property were planted by the students in the photo.
