Howard Baker was a much appreciated part of the 100 year anniversary celebration of Merritt. In particular the play that dramatised a part of the local history, in particular characters about the historic Douglas lake cattle company. Howard wa s much involved in the stage dynamics for the play written bu local college librarian JIm Bruce.
Merritt has an interesting history short in the scheme of the world dynamic in the sence of a small population living in the tension of at least two empires. And trying to stay current with a big world.
