Law and Order in Lucan

From the 1850s through to the 1880s, Lucan, Ontario had a reputation as "the most lawless town in Canada" and "the wildest town in Canada."

Exeter Times, 24 Sep 1874, page 2.

No mention of whether any Culberts were involved in these stonings, either on the throwing end or the receiving end.

The stonings took place in 1874, the same year as the Whiskey Riot

Never a dull moment in old Lucan town.
