WANTED STRAIGHT CASH --An
amusing circumstance occurred in
town last week, showing .that all per-
sons are . not familiar with ordinary
business methods. A man had made a
sale, involving a considerable sum, the
condition thereofbeing that he was to
be paid cash; When the sale was cern-
meted,• the purchaser made out his
cheque for the amount, and handed it
to the other, who objected to its ac-
ceptance on the ground that it wasn't
"cash."• He was relieved on being told
that all hehad to do to make it cash,

the President 'and: Secretary are to

AN OLD RECORD. -In St.= Paul's
churchyard there is lying on the
ground a broken tombstone, that calls
to the memory of old residents a very
sad event that .occurred on the 20th of
April, ISM. .. That day Frederick Rye
and two persons named Jenkins (rela-
tives of Messrs Thomas, John and Rol-
and Jenkins) went fishing for suckers
in the river Maitland, off from Holmes-
villa ; the river was • high and they
drove their team in the water. Two
of the parties were drowned, the sur-
vivor, so we are informed, being Rich-
ard Jenkins, who inanaged to reach
shore by the aid of the tears. The re-
mains of Mr. Jenkins were interred at
Holmesville, and. those of Rye here.
The interment was one of the first, if.
not thefirst, in the•.ehurehyard; the
tombstone being brought herr from
Detroit. The inscription is roughly
cut, but can easilybe read, the word
"hear" in the first line of the verse.
being a mistake for "here." The in-
scription is as follows : •
