Adult rats emit 22 kHz ultrasonic alann calls in aversive situations. This type of call
IS a component of defensive behaviour and it functions predominantly to warn
conspecifics about predators. Production of these calls is dependent on the central
cholinergic system. The laterodorsal tegmental nucleus (LDT) and pedunculopontine
tegmental nucleus (PPT) contain largely cholinergic neurons, which create a continuous
column in the brainstem. The LDT projects to structures in the forebrain, and it has been
implicated in the initiation of 22 kHz alarm calls. It was hypothesized that release of
acetylcholine from the ascending LDT terminals in mesencephalic and diencephalic areas
initiates 22 kHz alarm vocalization. Therefore, the tegmental cholinergic neurons should
be more active during emission of alarm calls. The aim of this study was to demonstrate
increased activity of LDT cholinergic neurons during emission of 22 kHz calls induced
by air puff stimuli. Immunohistochemical staining of the enzyme choline
acetyltransferase identified cell bodies of cholinergic neurons, and c-Fos immunolabeling
identified active cells. Double labeled cells were regarded as active cholinergic cells.

Ridley College was conceived in 1888 by a group of Anglican clergy and laymen eager to establish a school for boys in Ontario that emphasized strong academic and religious values. The school was originally known as Bishop Ridley College, in tribute to Nicholas Ridley, a 16th century English churchman who was martyred during the Protestant Reformation for refusing to renounce his Anglican faith. The first facility was the stately and spacious Springbank Sanatorium; shortly thereafter, construction was begun across the old Welland Canal on a lower school for boys age 5 to 13 on the present-day campus site. The name “Springbank” stems from the name of the hotel constructed in 1864 by Dr. Theophilus Mack on Yates Street. Fortuitously, the directors of what would become Ridley College were looking to found a new boys’ school. The sale of the building was completed in 1888 and Ridley began operations in September 1889. In October 1903, the Springbank building complex was consumed by fire forcing the school to move across the canal to its modern western campus. The Ridley campus grew dramatically during the 1920's, and new buildings and facilities were added in each of the following decades. The school became co-educational in 1973; just over a dozen girls enrolled in the inaugural year, while today almost half of Ridley's students are girls.

Survey map of the Second Welland Canal created by the Welland Canal Company showing south Merritton along the boundary between the Grantham and Thorold Townships. Identified structures associated with the Canal include Locks 19, 20, 21, and 22, Lock Tenders House, and the towing path. The surveyors' measurements and notes can be seen in red and black ink and pencil. Local area landmarks are also identified and include streets and roads (ex. Pine Street and Macadamized Road), J. Brown Cement Mill, W. B. Hendershot Saw Mill, W. Parnall Spoke and Sash Factory, W. Beatty Saw Mill, W. Beatty Tannery, a number of structures (possibly houses) belonging to: Mrs. Aikins, J. Battle, and E. Keefer, and a foundry, smithy, and machine shop (all of which possible belonged to J. Dobbie). Properties and property owners of note are: Concession 10 Lots 9 and 10, W. C. Loan Company, P.H. Ball, and J. Keefer. Two small properties belonging to W. B. Hendershot and W. Beatty exist and are outlined in red. A half acre property reserved for a lock lot exists and is outlined in blue. An additional property reserved for a quarry is also identified, but not outlined.
