On this tour you will hear about the tragedy of the Turnbull Building collapse and discover details about the 1916 Quaker Fire that you may not know. Additional stories center on the untimely demise of little Freddie McMaster, the amazing life and career of strongman Daniel McDonald, and the burial of Col. Alexander McDonell, a Catholic, who was supposed to be interred outside St. Peters Cemetery but now has a prominent place near the Little Lake Cemetery Chapel.
