However, on September 19th, 1908, Federal Conservative leader R.L. Borden visited Cowansville and a huge picnic was hosted for him, in celebration of his visit. It was the largest gathering the town had ever seen. It is possible that souvenir spoons were made up to sell to visitors on this occasion; Total of 4 pcs.
