They left the farm in Pakenham Township 1932, locating in Almonte where Mr Lindsay established the present premises of Lindsay Farm Equipment on Bridge Street, selling International Harvester products. Mr Lindsay was a life member of the Masonic Order, having joined in 1916. He was also an avid curler and was a member of the Almonte Curling Club for many years until failing health forced him to give up the game.

Mr Lindsay semi-retired in 1963 when his son-in-law, the late Archie Lockhart took over the farm implement business.
