LESSLIE & SONS (Brit.). A firm of Upper Canada, made historical, says Mr. R.W. Mc Lachlan, through a token bearing its
name. These coins, which are plentiful, show that the main
business house of the firm was located at York, with branches at
Kingston and Dundas. A later and larger token, issued by the
same firm in the year 1832, anticipated the renaming of the capital
of Ontario, Toronto, by two years. It had heretofore been known
as "little York", often qualified by the derisive term "muddy"
