Carroll, an englishman, took over the business. The American settlers continued to trade at the store. Mr. Carroll had open accounts for all of them. He provided all sorts of services. He paid my father's taxes for years and put it on the account."

Fairview - Home of Levi IV and Ella Moore Pearce and children, Bennett, Lawson, Mason, Levi V, Lois, Charles H. (died as an infant) & Harry Francis. This was a large building with many bedrooms to accomodate the family and visitors. During the period 1909 - 1924 my aunt Maria brought several groups of school teacher friends for summer vacations. My mother, Eula Hartley met my father this way. Bennet Pearce met and later married Julia Chester. For entertainment the visitors went horseback riding and made overnight visits to the nearby cave for fishing and swimming. Levi IV made his money with sugar and cattle. He later cut mahogany. In 1918 he put up $50,000 of his own money, mortgaged his home for another $50,000 and with $17,000 from son, Bennett for a large mahogany cutting operation. He was on a boat from Puerto Barrios to Belize to make the final sale of the timber to a British outfit when World War I started. The deal fell through and he could not find any other buyers, so the mahogany rotted and he lost everything. Levi and Ella Pearce continued living at Fairview. The children had gonve to live in the US except Lawson, who lived with his family at Shinn Cottage. About 1925 the Levi Pearces, Lawson's family and Mason and Charlie Moore moved to Texas. Lawson remained at Shinn Cottage until he died about 1933 from cancer. The Palatine order of the Catholic Church bought the house portion of Fairview and the sister established a church and Parochial school as well as a noviate training school."

1Frank McKamie Mason, Homesteads in the Toledo American Settlement, 1985, p. 5-7 #12, 14, 15. "12. My grandfather, James R. Mason bought 400 acres of land including "Rocky Run" and 80 acres of Spice Hill and 80 acres of Dixie. Date 1880 back dated to 1872 ?. Probably an earlier settler started to buy the land but left. In 1886 he sold the 160 acre, Rocky Run plus 8 cattle to Mr. Ed Watrous (no kiin to Theodore). Ed Watrous married widow, Marie PPetet Johnston. She and brother, Paul Peret were children of Pierre Peret, an early settyler in Toledo Settlement. Mr. Bob Johnston, brother of ???.. Marie Carroll were children of Mr. Rob Johnston, brother. Dick, and sisters, Anna Moore and Mary Carroll were children of Marie Perets marriage with Johnston. Cousins Tom and Anza Moore bought Rocky Run from Mrs. B. Watrous and built a new home. Tom made a living with sugar cane and later mahogany cutting. he sold to Mr. Carroll, his brother-in-law and moved to USA in late 1920s. Marie young inherited Rocky Run from her step-father and presently lives there.
14. (large paragrph here about Mrs. Wood, Joe Lester, Mollie Copeland) ... One grandaughter, Rose Lester married Julius Payne. Julius Payne sold the 157 acre Hope Estate with plant, machinery, implements and cattle in 1885 after a mortgage on the land was cleared up, to my grandfather J.R. Mason. I am sure that he took possession of the land 5 or 6 years. earlier. The Paynes then moved to a 4 acre plot of land on Spice Hill. A Mr. Wilson, descendant of Julius Paynes currently owns Spice Hill. Alma Baker's daughter, Mrs. Ruth Crum looks after Dixie. Her aunt, Ruth Lester is in a nursing home.
15. Fern Hill - James Rogers Mason arrived at Toledo Settlement in 1876 kept 80 of the 400 acres of the land he bought with The Rocky Run land. He added the 157 acre Hope estate, bought 80 acres from Frank Pearce, and bought two 40 acre parcels from Paul Peret (Peret Place). Grandfather probably built the original house or it may have been built by Julius Payne. At any rate, he turned the house around to face North as he acquired land north of old Hope Estate. According to Ade Wilson's letter he put up his mill shed and between his own sugar operation and sugar from Ed Watrous's Rocky Run mill was pretty well out of debt in 1879 when he married Miss Julia Pearce. Their children were Maria, Annie, James II, and Julian. Julia, who suffered from an enlarged heart and was under her brother, Dr. Frank's care did not survive Julian's birth. Grandfather died in 1889 of amoebic disentary and the orphans at Fern Hill were cared for by uncles Harry and Levi. Julian died at age 11. (... continued under James Rogers Mason II)."2Frank McKamie Mason, Homesteads in the Toledo American Settlement. "Grandfataher died in 1889 of amoebic dissentary and the orphans at Fern Hill were cared for by uncles Harry and Levi."
