It was moved here in the winter of 1912-13 when the Canadian Northern Railway was being planned and some loggers figured they could get the contract for the Clearwater River bridge at Baileys Chute if they had a donkey on site.

The men had already cut 9000 cubic meters of timber when the railway was confirmed along a different route.
