The William Douglas Tug Boat was named after the Mill Superintendent who worked at Carleton Place and Braeside from approximately 1892 – 1942.  In 1908, the Almonte Gazette reported that he invented a new undercut gang saw for use in lumber mills. He appears here with members of the Braeside Baseball Team circa 1897.
