FRIDAY, DECEM.BERM, 1996
.Death of' an .ohl. Clintonfan
Mr. Holmes druggist, received word
yesterday _of 'the death: of his grand-
father, Wm. T. Hohnes, which oc-
curred at Edmond, Oklahomit. De-
ceased formerly lived on the 16th con,
of Goderich township, and catne into
town tu go into partnership with Mr.
Leslie, in the carriage business. He
afterwards erected a factory where
Wesley church now stands, and with
his son, the late W. .T. Holmes, as
partner, carried on a carriage and bent -
stuff factory. About 27 years ago he
left here, first going to Kansas, and
later settling in Oklahoma. For years
he has been troubled with rheumatism,
and was compelled to use crutches.
He was a devout Christian worker,
and often walked three miles on Sun-
day, on crutches, to preach the gospel,
his heart being so thoroughly in the
work. His wife predeceased him about
eight years ago. Two sons, Philip and
Fred, and t wo daughters,Mrs. Al organ
and Mrs. Taylor, survive him. Mr.
Holmes was 82 years of age.
The Wardenship
In order to eliminate politics, the
County Councillors in 1900unanimous-
ly passed a resolution to the effect
that the Wardenship, should be held
alternately by a Liberal and Conser-
vative, no matter what the political
complexion of the Council. This reso-
lution. has been faithfully adhered to,
and has proved very satisfactory, and
we presume it will be adhered to by
the Incoming council. This will give
theposition to a Liberal next year.
Of course it is early to prophecy, be-
cause one Ines not know who will he
members of the Council, but should
Mr J.. N. McKenzie, one of the repre-
sentatives of Ashfielcl be a member of
the new Council, we would like to see
him get the Wardenship. He has•the
'ability to fill the.position with credit,
• to the county, his experience in muni-
cipal matters combined with good
judgment and plenty of back. bone -
making him a good executive officer.-

he duti not know of any actual suffer,

once is the shortage of cars for ship-
