for light goods is growing less
and', there will,.. soon be .a call.
for heavier articles. ... Fall
goods are beginning to arrive,

find that we have made ample
provision for -their wants at
right prices. Considerable
boots' and shoes are selling
and by the way we think, it a
good idea to Purchase in this
line -before the wet weather
sets in. It .gives the .leather
time to season, and the result
is much better satisfaction in

the action of the civic authorities for-
bidding the delivering of speeches . or
preaching in all public park, ()neon's
Park had l(•(;onte .;u(:1, a 11otl,ori .f
blai;phetny, cliabaldry, and clamor, on
Sunday afternoon, that it was felt that
liberty had degenerated into:license ;
and at length the strong, arras of • the
law was invoked, sweeg,:tlg away with
absolute impartiality, though not with-
out some small show of resiattirtee,' the
noisy declaimer and his little stance
and the 'more pleasant find. peaceable
preacher of the Worn.
For the. past fifteen years, when
weather ermittecl, Queen's Park has
been a favorite stumping -ground, of
the amateur orator and the resort of
the mor 3idly curious. Every one over-
burdened with -second-hand ideas,
every one with a grievance to air,
every one with a fancied mission to
fulfil,. every one that knew. more. than
everybody else, have lifted up their
uaices--3r1 all these bygone years.
What a motley aggregation they have
been ? Persons and ,peoples of all
shades of thought and opinion—
Protestani,s and Romanists. ; infidels,
and 3hristians ; pantheists and deists ;
agnostics and skeptics ,; social and_
vIc re -formers ; prohibition and tem -
ranee advocates ; Salvationists and
ission woe*kers ; and a host of minor
ghts whose names outrun the memory:
ere they , have found 'congenial 'soil
nd flourished in wild profusion from
aliny springtime until the dreary
X

autumn days.
Enjoying 'so long a period '.of '
irnniunity, many 'of the park orators
considered it an 'inalienable right to
discuss subjects each to his taste,
unmindful alike that the language used
was sometimes shockingly coarse and
even blasphemous, and that' it ill -
accorded with . the sanctity of the
Sabbath as upheld bylaw. Thousands
of people , visited the park every Sun-
day
afternoon, impelled by a desire to
hear the "battle royal" of the shouters.
Each speaker had a coterie of support-
ers ; and like the fungoid growths of
'plant life,,• that feed on decayed
material, they fed on world -old argu-
ments, and. applauded every witty
statement and' irreverent' or coarse
allusion. Theiryision.seemed bounded

' There were exceptions to this genera
classification, however. There wer
thcfrie whose evidentpurpose,-aiid desir

Reformation Society, who -held a stance
at the. entrance to the park fol , fifteen

Since writi:,,,; cur last report to the
SENTINEL, the relentless hand of death
has entered one of the oldest house-
holds in this part of the township and.
removed from our n ids[ •one much be-
loved :arid respected. The illness of
Amelia Smeltzer, beloved wife of •Mr.
W. H. Reed, Sr., reported in the SEN-
TINEL . some time ago, • terrniriaLed in
death en Friday, the 1 4th of August,
at the ripe old age of 74 . years, 2 -
monthsand 6 days, Deceased was a
native of Ireland, being • horn in
Kilkenny. on June .8th, 1817. In
1826 she, with the rest of the family,
left the land of their birth, and came -
to.,seek a home in the wilds of Canada.
In 1836,.-at,.the-early age .of,.'nirreteen, .
she was married to William Harbourn
Reed, and for a number of years re•
-
sided in the township of Esquesing,
In 1859, the, faintly moved tai, Ash-
field, and ever since have been identi-
fied .with the history of the township.
The funeral which took place on Sun-
day, the 16th inst., showed the high
feelings of respect in which deceased
and members of the family were held
by the entire community. Tlie-.£une___
eral was one of -the largest ever seen
in this section. The remains were in-
terred in the Dungannon cemetery,
the burial, services being conducted by
Rev. J. Kenner.. The family, which
consists of nine sons all living, have in
her death lost a kind and affectionate
mother, and .her. aged partner in life,
who survives her. at the advanced age
of 84, mourns: the loss of a sympathizing •
and loving wife. The deepest feelings
of sympathy. ofthe .many friends and
neighbors. are extended to the bereaved c•
..family, but the patient endurance of
suffering, and the strung assurance of
a better and brighter life,' which she... •
left behind, proves that What is their
loss is her eternal gain.
