REMAINS: |
Only the old church and its cemetery survive.
The town was located at the end of the Hastings road and offered little
to the early settlers. There were several sawmills and a plentiful supply
of timber. Hauling timber was the railway’s only business. When the
timber supply diminished, so did the population. When the sawmills stopped
operating, the rails were lifted and Wallace became another ghost town.
