Yorkton's First Fair - Robt. N. Taylor is seated in the front row, right, with hat in hand. The others seated include Joel Reaman and his three daughters. Three fiddlers are seen in the second row-not identified, but a fiddler was always a welcome guest at any gathering in the early days. The oxen seen were also a very necessary part of any gathering.
