=MacAulay, Brock=, was born in Southampton, Ont., March 14, 1871. He is a son of Donald MacAulay and Annie McLeod, of Stornoway, Scotland. He is a merchant in Southampton and also interested in two fishing tugs which fish out of that harbor. In the realm of sport the name of Brock MacAulay is known from one end of Canada to the other. His two great pastimes are bowling and curling. In years gone by he and his great rink of curlers have brought honor and fame to Southampton. No big bonspiel was complete without these hardy men from the Bruce Peninsula, and they demonstrated, under the guidance of Brock MacAulay, that they knew the roarin’ game to perfection. When they were not winners, they were runners up, and seldom have they returned home without annexing a good share of the trophies. In bowling it was the same, and they also brought the name of their town to the fore. Brock MacAulay in both games, is a skip of rare judgment, and it is in the tight places that his brilliancy shines. He seldom fails to draw to the T or kitty when it is required of him. He is a good sportsman, and win or lose he has always been noted for his great good nature. In private he is a good story teller and an interesting companion. He is a member of St. Lawrence Lodge, No. 131, A.F. & A.M., of Southampton, the Sons of Scotland, and the I.O.F. He is a Presbyterian in religion and a Liberal in politics. He married Miss Jean Webster, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Webster, of Lion’s Head. They have one daughter, Helen, and one son, Douglas.
