Louis Gunner - Ottawa Peddler
Louis Gunner and his wife Rachel were about 20 years old when they left the Ukraine and traveled through Romania to England, and then on to Ottawa in the early 1920's.
To make ends meet, Louis took up peddling using a horse and wagon. He specifically sought out rags, old textiles, scrap metal, etc... all to be recycled, repaired or sold for scrap.
Where they lived on Murray Street there were already quite a few peddlers in the area, as it was a very common occupation for Jewish immigrants in the city. These peddlers sold their goods to the Baker Brothers Iron and Metal Works, a scrap metal plant owned by Manny Glatt located off of Scott Street in LeBreton Flats.
Louis continued his profession until he was well into his 70's. He never learned to drive, but was devoted to his horses that pulled along his wagons.
His son Sol recalled, "It's an interesting thing about his horses. He always gave them regal names like "King" or "Prince." I don't know what was the reason, but I'm sure it was kind of ironic. But, he always took care of his animals, he fed them before he ate. He would go to the stable on the back of the house feed the animals first. He used to travel through Lowertown, and he'd travel out to what is now Hintonberg, and he'd go into the Glebe and those areas, and he'd head back around 5 o'clock [when] you'd see the horse coming down Friel and Murray Street and into the yard. He'd put the horse in the stable behind the house at 361 Murray Street." | Gunner, Louis (I19379)
