Now, Martha, just came back from the Hamilton Library "Book Sale",
where they sell their 'discard' and unwanted books. Bought 7 books,
7 bucks, I'm so happy, I will be going back tomorrow for more. Anyway,
last year I bought the whole set of the Grolier Encyclopedia, called
'Canadiana' 1958 edition for $15., what a steal that was, and in it ...

"Brosseau Station, Que., community in Laprairie County, a residential
suburb of the town of La Prairie, nine miles S.E. of Montreal on the
CNR. It is situated in a market-gardening area."

There is also a village named Brosseau in Alberta.
And that is it, John
