Iver. -i, a farmer front near Dun- gannon, was found Tuesday morning beside a culvert, opposite the farm of J. G. Hetherington, near Nile. Dur- ing the night's storm, while driving onte front Goderich • with a• lead of lumber, the team either became fright- ened at the sharp lightning, or went too near the edge of the culvert, and the driver and load were thrown off the wagon, the former being pinioned under the lumber.Deceased tvas mar- ried and has a family.

President Bailey lute lodked closely after the welfare of the society,, and it has tnaintained its hold on popular favor. , Noens.-There is no place of its size in the county that does as much gener- al business as Dangannon. A lady in the village, who is active and hearty for her years -about 80 e has never at- tended the fall fair here for the last 27 years there is no reason why she shonld not, save the fact that she- hits lost interest. The establishment of a breech of theSterling. Bank here has proved a great convemence to business men and farmers alike, and the cour- teous manager, Mr.Russel E Manning, has won the confidence and reepect of the.community. A fall fait or a Liberal* convention taxes to•the utmost the ac- commodation of our two excellent hotels here, the crowd attending the .faltfair on. Friday being pretty large.

Foy.. daughter of Mr. and Mrs. john J. Foy, for many years faithful attendants al that church, and noted among its benefac- tors.

She was a member of the various societies of the cnurch-the Se Agnes' Sodality, the League of the Sacred Heare And the Sodality of the Blessed, Virgin- and a•lso one of the prime movers in organ- izing the Dramatic Club. She was also very popular with the girls of the' Clover Club, of which she was a mem- ber.

For the last seven years Miss Foy had been teaching in Public School No 147. During the past vacation season she sought rest and recteation in the coun- try, where she contracted typhoid fever. She lingered for ten days, and died a most beautiful death on Friday, t. 14, the vigil • of the feast of her patron saint, After having been forti- fied with the last sacraments of the Church."
