Henry Clay Cole & Olive Beebe
Henry Clay Cole, who this General Store is named for, was known by many as the Grand Old Man of Summit Township. He was born in 1841, in the State of New York & came to Mason County in 1867. He Married Olive Beebe in 1875, & their pictures hang together in the General Store. They had six children.
Mr. Cole enlisted in Co. M., Third Michigan artillery of the Union Army at Hillsdale, Michigan in 1862 when he was 21 years of age. He became ill with pneumonia & was discharged, but re-enlisted in Detroit in 1864. Mr. Cole saw action in several major engagement of the Civil War, among them Chickamauga & the fighting at Knoxville, Tennessee. At the time of his death, he was Mason County's oldest War veteran.
After his service in the Civil War, he came to this region in search of land for a farm. In the company of Martin Hitchcock, he walked from Whitehall in 1867, & they examined the location & the soil of several tracts before deciding. Finally, Mr. Cole purchased 80 acres in North Summit Township where he built his hand-sewn log home & lived there until after the death of his wife in 1917. The Mason County Historical Society moved the structure to the Village in ????, in one piece from the area near the Pumped Storage Project.
During his lifetime, Mr. Cole served on the county board of supervisors from Summit Township for 40 years. "His was more likely than not to be the deciding voice on important questions & that his decisions were usually right & in accord with public welfare as attested by the habit his constituency formed of sending him back" (Ludington Daily News 07/03/34).
He also served two terms as sheriff of Mason County, which at that time was as long as the law permitted a man to serve in consecutive years.
Mason was a gift for my wife's birthday in 2004. My good friend Ron helped us pick him out of a litter of twelve other pups. He was picked because of the streak going down his nose. Mason loved the snow, playing in it and eating it. He would carry huge logs we cut for firewood around the backyard, so they would go from a neat pile to being scattered all over the yard. Being ninety pounds he thought he was a lap dog. We had to quickly break him of that. Every chance he got he would go swimming in lakes or rivers no matter how cold the water was. Sometimes he would get out shivering, you would just have to scratch your head. Honestly he wasn't the smartest of dogs, but what he lacked in smarts Mason made it up with love. He was always fun to be around, even being around his stinky farts. Oh man, some of them were bad. I can go on and on about Mason. It's going to be weird camping without you. You're going to be missed buddy!

Shirley Mason (1901-1979) was an American actress of the silent era. She was a sister of Viola Dana. She made her film debut at the age of 10. Between 1910 and 1929, she made more than 110 films.
Shirley Mason was born Leonie Flugrath in Brooklyn, New York, to Emil and Mary (née Dubois) Flugrath. Her father was a printer. She and her two sisters, Edna and Virginia, became actresses at the insistence of their mother. Emil helped out with the process by building his daughters a gymnasium for them to work out and 'train' in. Mason and her sister, Virginia (Viola Dana), made their film debuts at the ages of 10 and 13, respectively, in the film A Christmas Carol (J. Searle Dawley, 1910) for Edison. The film runs 13 minutes and is one of the earliest film adaptations of Charles Dickens' famous 1843 novella. It featured Marc McDermott as Ebenezer Scrooge and Charles S. Ogle as Bob Cratchit. Shirley and Viola appeared as the daughters of Bob Cratchit in the final scene. Mason's next film was The Threshold of Life (Director unknown, 1911) with Mary Fuller. She appeared with her sister Edna in the short, Uncle Mun and the Minister (C.J. Williams, 1912), and appeared with Viola in Children Who Labor (Ashley Miller, 1912) and The Portrait in the Attic (John H. Collins, 1915). As a child actress, Mason was not in high demand. It was not until 1915 that she played the role of the young Becky Sharpe in Vanity Fair (Eugene Nowland, Charles Brabin, 1915). She acted for Edison Studios in 1916, starring in The Littlest Magdalene (Burton George, 1916). In 1917, her career saw a major advance as she was cast in 13 films that year alone, and was given the title role in the film The Awakening of Ruth (Edward H. Griffith, 1917). One of her most well-known roles was as Eve Leslie in the Seven Deadly Sins series (Theodore Marston, Richard Ridgely, 1917). Jessica Keaton at Silence is Platinum: "It started with Envy, then Pride, Greed, Sloth, Passion, Wrath, and finally The Seventh Sin. The last installment should have been 'Gluttony' but the term was deemed too offensive by the producers so the title was changed. The same goes for Passion as 'Lust' was considered offensive as well." Mason continued a vibrant acting career through the 1920s, landing substantial parts in films such as Love's Harvest (Howard M. Mitchell, 1920), The Lamplighter (Howard M. Mitchell, 1921), and Very Truly Yours (Harry Beaumont, 1922). In 1929, she appeared in her final role in The Flying Marine (Albert S. Rogell, 1929), along with Ben Lyon and her sister Viola Dana.
The Flugrath sisters were a talented trio, and all three graced the cinema with their silent films. Edna Flugrath was the eldest daughter, born in 1893, and was the only sister to maintain her original name upon entering the film business. Virginia, who later changed her name to Viola Dana, was born in 1897, followed by the youngest, Leonie, who one day became Shirley Mason. The mother of the Flugrath sisters was the one who first dreamed of their stage careers and, at a very young age, had them enrolled in dance classes. The sisters spent much of their childhood touring with companies at Coney Island, Elks Clubs, and other venues. Eventually, their mother's efforts paid off; all three sisters were hired by Edison Studios. Viola met her husband, John Collins, at Edison, and the young director and actress became a successful husband-wife team. Edna also met her future husband, Harold Shaw, at the Edison Studios, and when he went to the UK in 1913 to direct at the London Film Company. Edna accompanied him; however, they did not marry until 1917 when they were producing films in South Africa. Shirley had appeared in several films and had met her future husband, Bernard Durning. Durning was a fellow actor and also director, and although eight years her senior, the two were married in 1917 when Mason was only 16 years old. Mason and Durning enjoyed a very happy marriage, with his directing films back East, and Shirley acting in them. All was well until 1923, when Bernard Durning reportedly drank some tainted water while working on a film in Brooklyn and got typhoid fever. He died, leaving 22-year-old Shirley a widow. Mason was remarried once more in 1927 to director Sidney Lanfield. The two remained married until Lanfield died of a heart attack in 1972. In 1979, Shirley Mason died of cancer in Los Angeles. She was interred at Westwood Village Memorial Park. Like her sisters, she never had children.

Masons of Cheddington Van Hool Astron T916 YJ09 CUU is seen in Brighton on 29th September, 2016. It was new to BM Coaches.
Late July 1974.
My mates, Robert Mason, Bob Wilson and Me.
This was the day Mum, Dad, Karen, Kevin and I flew to the UK, aboard a BOAC Super VC10 flying to Darwin, Singapore, KL, Abu Dhabi and eventually London (Heathrow).
It was really good of Robert and Bob to come up to the airport to see me off.
I used to sit next to Robert in grade three in Henry Palasczuk's English class. Henry was really strict. He'd sorted the class into rows according to ability. If you didn't do well on your weekly spelling test, you'd have to go down a row. Eventually, if you didn't do well while you were in the lowest row, you ended up getting moved to lower level English class next door.
Robert and I used to do science experiments in our spare time, mixing up whatever chemicals we could find, or wiring up old radios to see what we could do.
Robert and I discovered our love of Science together.
When my mum and Dad needed some time alone together in the early seventies, Roberts parents (Brenda and Marshall) kindly let me stay with them for a while.
Bob was a ten pound pom like me, but he arrived in 1972. His family were from Nelson (near Manchester) in Lancashire. I actually visited Nelson in 1997 when Liz and I went back to the UK. Where their family moved to in Rosella Street Inala was much nicer than Nelson, although the view of some of the green hills around Nelson was quite pretty.
Bob and I used to ride our bikes down the bush and smoke cigarettes that Bob used to magically procure. He and his brother Graham were brilliant at soccer, and I think Graham actually went on to play it profesionally.
Bob was the main reason that I decided to go to Oxley State High School instead of Inala High or Richlands. That decision changed my life.
The schools in Inala were rough. As a result, most kids under achieved. I went to primary school at Serviceton South in Inala. I found it very difficult since I was younger than most kids in my class, and smarter than most of them. So in their jealousy they made life tough for me.
So Oxley High was a big step up for me.
I ended up being School Captian of Oxley High, and am very grateful that I did well academically, eventually being able to get into Uni.
It was at Oxley High that I eventually ended up getting mixed up in the church, which in a way was a good thing, because it's how I got to meet my lovely wife, Liz.
So Bob, I owe you a hell of a lot, mate. You changed my life, and neither of us realized it at the time.
I am so glad I met both Robert and Bob, and I very much regret not keeping in touch with either of them.
