Oldest resident remembers when Mississaugas had their own reserve

Original Toronto Star caption: Oldest resident remembers when Mississaugas had their own reserve. Arthur B. Harris, who is in his 88th year and lays claim to be the oldest resident in Clarkson, remembers the day when the Mississauga Indians had their reservation on the banks of the Credit River. He regrets that the old log council house and church were not preserved as figures of historical interest.
