Throughout 1916 there had been little interest in the cricket club at Crowle so, in late February, at the cricket field, ‘the substantially built, white painted, lock-up, wooden, cricket pavilion’ went for auction. The pavilion had been built in sections and stood on heavy sleepers, surrounded by gates and railings. It was advertised as a possible storeroom or as a shop for a butcher, joiner or shoemaker.

More prosaically Mr. F. J. Long of Crowle was fined 10/- for driving a motor taxi without exhibiting the words ‘hackney carriage.’ Mr. Long accepted the fine with some ill grace being at pains to point out that he had been too busy lately to put the plates

The excluded individuals are usually racially discriminated against. Discrimination has recently impacted my life due to the way I dress in order to fulfil my religious beliefs.

Robert Davis was an African American man. He was not a “thug,” he was not a “drunk,” he was a retired school teacher from New Orleans who was in his sixties. He was brutally attacked by three police officers. He suffered a broken nose and other broken bones in his face. The incident was recorded and went viral. Davis was arrested but faced no charges. Three police officers were charged but only two went to trial. In the end, two of the police officers were fired — the third never made it to trial because he had committed suicide. Davis was compensated for the assault.

Owned at one point by George and Lillie Cook, my maternal great-great-great aunt and uncle, part of Lot 44 of the First Borden Edition, now better known as Cricket’s, passed through their hands to go on to influence the history of the Town of Birdseye. Sadly, the portion they owned, the south end-- a beautifully ornate, red brick, Italianate structure-- is no longer standing, its former glory now replaced by an empty lot. However, in more recent years the family connection was reestablished by Bill Golden, a recently deceased family member. Spending most of his adult life discovering the history of Birdseye, he devoted much of his time centered around unearthing the story of this beautiful building because of to its connection
