The display reads:
Verity Sulky Plow
Manufactured by W.H. Verity
in a little shop in Exeter Ontario
starting in 1857 until 1915.
It was made to accommodate
"Grampa"
who could no longer walk for miles
to plow the fields.
This allowed everyone to contribute
to the farming operation.
Restored in 2017 by Keith Miller
