The fire discovered about 4 o'clock in the morning and by that time two central blocks in the town had been completely gutted. ...The places damaged were: McMaster's Hardware Store, Frise Dry Goods Store, Brighton Whitewear Co., Hydro Electric Shop, Ross Grocery and Dingman 's Barber Shop. Two houses. two or three blocks away, were set afire by sparks, but the incipient blaze was extinguished without much damage having been sustained. (29 to 41 Main Street)
February - A few changes have occurred since the big fire on Main Streel. Mr. A.D. Bullock promptly bought out Mr. J.J. LaTour and incidentally the premises now occupied by Mr. A.O. Bullock are the same that his father Mr. D. Bullock before Brighton 's big fire 30 years ago. Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Sanford are located in the Sanford block, corner of Young and Dundas streets, where Mr. LaFay had his shop. Mr. La Fay very obligingly moved his stock out to let Mr. Sanford in. The Hydro Electric staff is quite comfortably situated upstairs over G.H. Roblin's hardware store. Marshall and Dingman are giving their customers the same close shaves across the road in the Tire Hospital. The Bank of Commerce were fortunate in securing Butler's fine show rooms, which, while they may not be fitted with the necessary cages, etc., required for banking are handy and substantial.

H. Frise store was robbed. (47 Main St.)" from page 270 of "History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose, 2009.⁵ He lived in July 1925 at 47 Main St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "Among the industries of Brighton is the Brighton Nightwear Co., which was established just five years ago and is not only still going strong but growing stronger still. The Company is three progressive Brighton men: J. H. Frise, S. D. Ross and W. W. Porte. The employees are ten Brighton people who are taking pride in their work and interest in the whole concern.
The fine combination of business management and skilled workmanship means that several clothiers who handle the products of the Brighton Nightwear Co. have said, "These are the best made goods we get." You consider that leading clothiers in Toronto, Hamilton, London and Ottawa are handling their goods regularly. One Toronto house sent to have a particular line of pyjamas, in which they specialize, made. Some Montreal and Winnipeg firms arc handling the Brighton Nightwear Co. products. Clothiers in Oshawa, Whitby, Bowmanville, Cobourg, Peterborough, Lindsay, Napanee, Kingston, Picton, Belleville, Campbellford and numerous other towns are retailing the goods steadily. (47 Main Street)" from page 273 of "History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose, 2009.⁵ He lived in October 1928 at 47 Main St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "October - A bold robbery occurred in Brighton in the early hours of Sunday, when the dry goods store of J.H. Frise and the boot and shoe store of J.A. Bird were entered by thieves and hundreds of dollars worth of goods were stolen and mysteriously whisked away.
At the Frise store, entrance was gained to the cellar; and access to the store then made thru a trap door in the rear of the store. This trap door was fastened down by a stout bar propped from a sunken iron ring in the door to a nearby partition and so great was the force required to push up the door far enough to allow anyone to crawl through, that the partition was literally torn away from the floor and the prop imbedded in it. The back door was then opened from the inside and the rest was easy.
The marauders evidently considered themselves safe enough to go about their business leisurely and they showed their good taste by taking the best in the store. Among the missing things are over twenty women's and girl 's dresses, five men 's suits, five overcoats and a quantity of underwear, blankets etc.
At the store of Mr. Bird, it was found that they had again taken time to choose the best in the store and besides boots and shoes had taken a quantity of sox, shirts and general men 's furnishings, coming right to the very front of the store for some of their goods. They had made entrance into this store by breaking thru a fanlight over the back door, having first tried so desperately to force open the door that the door casing was sprung out of place.
The thieves had chosen a most propitious time for their work because after the stores were closed up about midnight on Saturday, neither one was opened again until on Sunday evening when Mr. Frise entered his shop to get something from his office desk and discovered what had taken place. Mr. Bird was not at his store until Monday morning, he having been away attending the funeral of a friend at Madoc on Sunday. As soon as Mr. Feise discovered his loss he notified Provincial Constable McBrien, who took charge of the investigation and has been following up various clues since then." from page 277 of "History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose, 2009.⁵ He lived in September 1929 at 47 Main St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "September - J. H. Frise was a victim of robbery again in the tune of about $500 dollars and the Butler service station across the street had their till rifled and other things taken. The second time within a month robbers again visit Brighton. About 3:30 Tuesday morning Mrs. Clarence Clouston, who lives over her place of business on Prince Edward Street was awakened by noises coming from the premises below, getting up and looking out the front window she saw a car parked in front of the pool room door and two men loading goods into it from her tobacco store. The robbers had made their escape in a westerly direction but before going they wrenched open the front door of Roblin's hardware store, taking there from the contents of a large self salesman show case, dressed with silverware, cutlery, pocket knives, two rifles and ammunition, etc. The loot taken from Clouston poolroom amounted to about$ I 00 and Roblin's loss about $20." from page 279 of "History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose, 2009.⁵ He lived in January 1930 at 47 Main St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "To be robbed three times in sixteen months is no joke. Mr. J. H. Frise who conducts one of the largest retail dry goods and ready to wear stores in Brighton has had that unique experience. The first robbery occurred in October, 1928 and was followed by another in September, 1929. The latest burglary took place sometime between 12 and 6 o'clock on Monday morning. The thieves gained an entrance through the rear door, after boring a row of holes in one of the panel so the door, they then reached in and slipped the bolt and removed a heavy iron bar which fitted into sockets on each side of the door.
Mr. Frise stated that the robbers had taken over $300 worth of stockings, thirty or more fine new dresses, just put in stock, boots, underwear, overcoats, suits and everything of value that they could lay their hands on. Altogether the takings will amount to about $2,500.
After gaining entrance they removed three overcoats from the east window five fine dresses from the west window, ransacked the store systematically from front to rear. They evidently knew their business as only the very best articles were taken, what they did not want was thrown on the floor and walked on. Brighton Nightwear Company is remodeling their factory to make more room for their growing business. (47 Main Street)" from page 280 of "History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose, 2009.⁵ He lived in March 1930 at 47 Main St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "Mr. Frise has remodelled the front of his store.

This makes the fourth time that the store has been burglarized in two and a half years. The glass in the rear clear window of the store was broken and must have made considerable noise. Entry was gained through the broken window and by a trap door into the store. Mr. Frise was working in the store until about eleven o'clock on Monday night and the robbery must have taken place between that time and the opening of the store on Tuesday morning. The goods taken were of small sizes. Shoes, shirts, trousers, braces, etc. are among the articles missing and their value is estimated to be about $20 or $25.

No damage resulted from this. (47 Main Street)
" from page 306 of "History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose, 2009.⁵ He lived in 1945 at Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "49 Frise, Harry, merchant, Brighton" Canada Voters Lists, 1945, Northumberland Co., Brighton Village, pg 74 of 178, ancestry.ca.⁹ He lived in 1947 at 47 Main St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "The Brighton Nightwear Company is closing after 27 years located on Main Street above J. H. Frise's store. On rows of machines 7 or 8 girls work on quality nightwear which later graces the shelves of Canada's best stores. The story behind the company now run by Mr. Frank T. Tougas is an interesting one. The seeds were sewn in 1920 when J. H. Frise and I.B. Solomon went as partners into a new venture called the Brighton Whitewear. They manufactured pyjamas, nightshirts and nightgowns, which sold from Kingston to Oshawa and points north. Mr. Solomon dropped out the following year and Mr. Frise carried on alone, only to be burned out by the disastrous fire in the early nineteen twenties. Actually, the fire was put out in the nightwear building but since it was located on the top floor at that time all goods were ruined and machines were blackened and scorched. The roof was half gone. Mr. Frise had to employ 14 men to lay new floors and clean the machines. Burned goods were sold at a great loss. By 1923 the Whitewear Company was back on its feet and Sam Ross and W. W. Porte came in as partners with Mr. Frise. The goods produced sold very well and in the mid twenties about 15 girls were employed as compared with the few Mr. Frise had when he was alone and had to do cutting far into the night to have work for the girls the next day. In 1926 the name Whitewear was changed to Brighton Nightwear Company Limited, since it was deemed the earlier name was misleading. Mr. Frank Tougas came from Peterborough to be a cutter in March of 1927. The Company continued the same under the new name till 1930, when Sam Ross sold out to Paul Houghton, son-in-law to Mr. Frise, who had been in the oil fields Of Oklahoma and Arkansas. He came to Brighton in 1934 and became active in company affairs. It was in 1936 that several local men joined with Messrs. Frise, Porte, and Houghton in the Nightwear Company. The new men were Y. C. Chapman, A. S. Miller, George Raymes, R. J. Taylor and Russell Philp. The following year the whole company folded up and production ceased. The owners sold thousands of dollars worth of machinery at a great loss to a buyer who trucked it away to Toronto, leaving little evidence of the once flourishing business. Frank Tougas, cutter with the old company, moved in new machinery in 1938 and started the Brighton Manufacturing Company on the second floor of the building. It is this company, still under, Mr. Tougas's ownership, which is flourishing today and whose goods are in such demand far and wide. The garments are considered by those in the know to be the best in Canada, which accounts for their popularity in the leading stores of the country. Mr. Frise, the originator of the Whitewear Company, recalls that in early days the motto was "Nightwear as mother made" at that time a Miss Morden was floor lady. Now Miss Mabel Carr holds that position and has done so since the days of the old nightwear company. (47 Main Street)" from page 328 & 329 of "History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose, 2009.⁵ He lived in September 1947 at 47 Main St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "One day recently Mrs. Dora Sandford dropped into Mr. J. H. Frise's store to buy a piece of material to be used in her dressmaking business. The cloth Mrs. Sandford chose was certainly not of cheap, wartime quality, for the bolt of material in question is 100 years old. Mr. Frise has had it for 50 years and the Smith and Webb stores had it before him. The material is ivory colored more in a faint wave crest pattern, and the strength seems perfectly normal. There is still some of the material left, and there are buttons for sale in the Frise store which are as old as the cloth. The old Webb store which flourished in the middle of the last century had a big wooden case full of buttons and those on Mr. Frise' shelves are a remnant from that case. Mr. Frise says the buttons would break a clothes wringer before the wringer could break them. (47 Main Street)" from page 329 & 330 of "History of Brighton Businesses by Susan Brose, 2009.⁵ He lived in April 1955 at 47 Main St., Brighton, Northumberland Co., Ontario; "April (1955)- Mr. Frise began work in a store in Lakefield on July 2, 1889, and at that time was hired for three years to learn the trade and remained two years longer with the same company. From there he went to Toronto and was employed by the T. Eaton Company for six months. Mr. Frise returned to his home in Lakefield, where he was born and came to Brighton on April 1, 1895 and began work for J. B. Smith. The store was located where the Dominion Store is now, (1 Main Street) the last store on the south side of Main Street, and included Archie Edwards shop. At that time there was no business carried on in the west part of town. For that reason, in 1898 Mr. Smith and Mr. Frise moved to the present location. They got six months rent free for bringing business to the west end.
The building they took over had been intended as a department store but the venture under Bryson and Graham, failed in the eighties. The dead business had been called the "Glasgow Warehouse" and Mr. Frise left the sign until it wore out. Remaining with J.B. Smith for five years, Mr. Frise then worked in the grocery business for Mr. Sam Nesbitt for two years but found the lifting of vinegar barrels and coal oil kegs was straining his heart and he went back to J. B. Smith in 1903. J. B. Smith died in 1910 and Mr. Frise continued alone. At the time, $5,000 worth of staples (bolts of cloth etc.) was carried and three clerks were employed. ln the millinery, six clerks were kept busy. Now, with a greater demand for ready to wear, one person can handle the store. A tailor, Mr. V. C. Chapman's father, was also employed. In I 920 Mr. Frise opened up a new department on the third floor of his building. This was a factory producing pyjamas and nightwear. It flourished until the great fire in January 1921 burned off the third storey roof and soaked machinery and supplies to the point of uselessness. Even the stored three stories below were soaked with water and floors had to be replaced. At that time, he had to have a new roof and new flooring. The nightwear plant was resumed with different men in partnership, and continued till 1937, when Mr. Frise and his colleagues gave it up. Though ready to wear is in greatest demand now, patterns for dresses still sell fairly well. Mr. Frise has old pattern books which are interesting to look at now. The dresses have gone from floor length to above the knees, and are now well on the way to the floor again.
Asked to compare the dry goods business now with that of 60 years ago, Mr. Frise said, "Quality is about the same but prices are way up." He recalls when he sold a set of clothes for $5.00 and threw in a pair of braces with the deal. The store has been robbed three times, and the one time he was practically cleared out. Truly it is a wonderful record to serve for sixty years and it is hoped Mr. Frise will long continue with his business, for this gentleman's genial countenance would be greatly missed. People shopped in a more leisurely and thoughtful manner, intent on making every nickel count, and believe it nor not, a nickel did count in those days. Mr. Frise says good print for dresses and aprons could be bought for five cents a yard, fine gingham for 10 cents and unbleached cotton for five cents or less. Folk bought this cotton for webbing for hot beds. Shoes were around a dollar to two dollars a pair. A fancy pointed toe boot was fastened with sixteen buttons. Men's boots boasted a high toe called a Bull Dog toe. Merchandise was displayed in a different manner than it is today. Although the windows would have a nice display, the caps, and perhaps boots, would be strung up from the ceilings. Long handled umbrellas would be on display in stands made for that purpose. Mr. Frise is still using the same counter he had when he started at the shop in 1898. Sometimes it would take Mr. Frise the whole afternoon to serve one customer because, in those days, people would buy all the goods in one shopping trip to last an entire season. An order might be as much as $200 and this account would be paid as soon as the farmer's crop was harvested. Electric lights have, of course, been installed, but fancy oil lamps were in use in the olden days. Some lamps hung from the ceiling, others stood in wall brackets.
