Original Toronto Star caption: Part of the crowd of more than 2,000 people who joined historian Donald Jones on his walk yesterday, stroll down Beverley St. to George Brown's house. The tour ended at the Grange. The Royal Regiment of Canada band marched along with the crowd playing various regimental tunes between stops. And there'll be another tour over same route tomorrow, beginning at University of Toronto's Convocation Hall at 2 p.m. - but without yesterday's free birthday cake.
