"Sheep killed or mauled by dogs earlier this month in the Newton Robinson area are going to cost West Gwillimbury taxpayers more than $1,200. The attacks occurred on the farms of Donald Ramsay, William Row, Jr., and Alonzi Aurora, and left 21 sheep dead and several more injured to the point where they have to be destroyed. The attack on the Ramsay farm on the Ninth Concession, was totally unexpected because the sheep were in the barn. The family awoke the following morning to a scene of carnage."

"The Newton Robinson anniversary fair on Saturday featured something for everyone. There was a large crowd out to enjoy the many tings a country fair has to offer many people enjoyed the display of artifacts of a bygone era, and Gwen Taylor was on hand at the display to point out things of interest to the visitors. Women at the tea tables were busy serving tea and coffee, giving many people a chance to renew acquaintances. The history of the Newton Robinson United Church was also on sale, along with hasti-notes with the church's picture on the front."

The celebration will be for the long, lively past, the country-quiet present and a re-dedication to wider community service in the future."
