What were the circumstances that led to that?
81:00
We were obviously one of the last clubs to leave the junior and join Eastie Scotland.
81:07
East of Scotland have been good.
81:08
They've given us Scottish Junior Cup games.
81:10
It's now the Communities Cup.
81:11
We've done well in the morning at half past two.
81:13
We played Dundonald Bluebell in our Premier League game.
81:48
Scott, were their wage packets significantly bolstered?
11:33
I look for Barbara and Terry in these interstices.
11:41
She told me something really interesting once about San Francisco in that period.
11:48
And she said that, you know, those of us who were in Berkeley who were so politicized, who were so interested in political change, we did not respect them.
12:00
the the hate ashbury hippies who were um you know just all there for sex and drugs and rock and roll i mean that this this is supposed to be a movement that was supposed to change the world not just make yourself feel good all the time right and and the reason i mentioned that is i think that if she found someone in san francisco like barbara who was an intellectual peer was somebody who was interesting and dynamic and had something to offer both Terry and the world, well then pursue that.
12:40
Why not engage with that? And so it makes sense that they could have had a connection.

There were draft dodgers and hippies and just generally people getting the hell out of the states.

Clearly, I guess now that I've seen these photos, the relationship, it meant that Hornby must have represented a special connection, almost a fulfillment of a creative spirit combined with a utopian sensibility about what a community could be and what life could be.
28:48
And one of the reasons Terry had chosen to go to vancouver and not take the position at stanford was because of the vietnam war because of her bitter disillusionment with social change and the american government and the risk i think honestly raising a son in an environment where she saw it as a neo-fascist military industrial complex state.

And then, of course, the confinement of things like the Indian Act and the reserve system and all of those things limited people to where they could be and where they could go.
18:19
There's two or three books on Harvard, and they always begin with the Fords and the Hots.
18:29
It's not crisp or clear when they came, either in 1869 or 1870.
18:33
I think the records say both things.
18:37
But both of them came from Comox.
18:41
Both of them, George Ford and Mr. Maud, arrived at the Comox Valley in 1860. within months of the smallpox epidemic, which allowed the preemptions to take place.
18:59
You could claim what is now called crown land.
21:38
I believe 1864 the grappler came.
