From the Echo Newspaper Archives plus Canadians in the WW2 French Resistance

This week, Kate dives back into the archives of the Haliburton Echo newspaper and comes up with Marjorie Clark who wrote a series of columns called 'This I Remember' where she reminisced about life in the County. Marjorie was born in 1882 and her recollections give a first-hand window into life in early Haliburton County. Plus, during WW2 there were many Canadian men and women who worked as secret agents behind the lines with Resistance cells for British Intelligence. Their lives were in constant danger from betrayal, capture and execution. Yet they contributed so much to the war effort. Today is the story of two of those agents.
