Following the 1916 fire which destroyed the Parliament buildings and damaged the Library Mr. Anthony was hired as a foreman with the restoration crews. Until 1920 he was involved in the rebuilding of the Peace Tower and the installation of new windows at the Library of Parliament. He later worked with various builders in the Ottawa area retiring in the late1940s. After his death in 1966 the tools were given to his son Jack who in turn donated them to CSTMC.
