The latest plan reported is to call on a farmer and beg poverty and request a feed of oats for their horse which is rarely refused. When the donation is salely stowed away on the waggon another farmer is called on and the same old story told. When the haps are' filled the artist drives to the nearest village and sells out.

DEATH OF W. P. PATERSON At His Home 4th Concession of Kin- loss, on Saturday, Oct. 21st On the morning of Saturday, Oct. 21st, at his home on the 4th con. of ► Kinloss, Mr. W. P. Paterson, senior elder of Lucknow Session, peacefully passed to his rest, after a severe illness of five weeks duration, though he had been evidently failing for the past two years. He will be sorely missed by the Pastor, the other, mem- bers of Session, the whole congregation and the entire community, as he was ever alive to the best -interests of all with whom his lot was cast. Mr. Paterson had reached the ad- vanced age of 85 years, having been born on August 21st, 1814, at Temple Hill Farrn, Parish of Loudon, Ayr- shire, Scotland. In 1841 he was married to Margaret Hunter Pierson. Having left Scotland for Canada in 1854 with their family of two sons and three daughters, they spent three years in Ingersoll and thirteen years in Missouri, after which they moved in 1870 to Kinloss, where, with the exception of a short time spent in Kincardine, deceased continued to reside till his death. Death of Mr. McCrostie The sudden death of Mr. John McCrostie, of West Wawanosh, one of the most widely known and highly respected residents of the township, cast a sad gloom over the whole .Community, on` Friday afternoon last. Mr. McCrostie and his daughter, Mrs. Hetherington, had driven to St. Helens to attend the preparatory services in the Piesbyterian Church. Mrs. Hetherington got out of the buggy on reaching the village, and her father drove to the church but a few rods away, but before reaching the place, his son, Mr. Hugh McCrostie, who was standing on the sidewalk, saw the lines drop from his rathera hands, ' hdand the old gentleman , suddenly fell back as though in a faint. He was lifted from the buggy and taken into the basement of the church. but his spirit passed away in a few minutes, from heart failure Mr. McCrostie was born in Bohalay. Perthshire, Scotland, in 1822, and was in the 79th year of his age, and up to the time of his death had enjoyed his usual good # health. He was twice married in Scotland before corning to this country. His first wife was Mies Margaret McGregor, by whom he had two children, Mrs. McGrory, of Michigan, and Mr. Hugh McCrostie. of West Wawanosh. His second marriage was to Miss Margaret Stewart, sister of County Councillor Alexander Stewart, of West Wawanosh, by whom he had eight children, and five of whom still survive him, being Mrs. 1: _;therington, Mr. :William McCreit je, Township Clerk ; Miss Isabella McCrostie, Mr. John !McCrostie, of West Wawanosh, and Mrs. (Dr.) J. K. M, Gordon, of Ripley. M r.

H3 often expressed his thankfulness to God' for the early religious instructions he received in his home, and was ever faithful in urging parents to train up their chil- dren in the fear of the Lord and in the study of His holy word. When a young man he received great benefit from at- tending a bible class conducted by two pious brothers in a private house rear his home. His appreciation of this privelege and his interest in the spir- itual. welfare of others led him to establish bible classes, Sabbath schools and prayer meetings in the different places where he resided and many can testify to the good they received at those meetings. Although living four miles from the Lucknow church, Mr. Paterson was never absent from Sabbath morning services excpt when sick, or when the roads were impossible; and he was very rarely known to disturb the devotions of others by entering the church late. He was a living illus- tration of Rom. 12 : 11. "Diligent in business, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord". Industry, frugality, honesty, punctuality, with fervency of spirit to do good to all with whom he came in contact, characterized him. Many shall feel the blank caused by the death of this aged servant of Christ, by more especially will it be felt by the surviving members of the family—the loving faithful wife with the two daughters, Mrs. McCullough, of Harwood, gear Peterboro, and Mrs. Alex.
