Mr. Alex. Mitchell's Death.
The following particulars of the death of
Mr. Alexander Mitchell, father of Mr. Wm.
Mitchell, of this town, we take from last
issue of the Listowel Banner : A sad event
was the sudden death early on Monday
morning last of Mr. Alexander Mitchell,
one of the oldest pioneers of this district.
Deceased, who was in the 77th year of his
age, has been waiting on his aged wife,
who has been lying near the point of death
for some weeks, but had recovered some-
what the last few days. About one o'clock
on Monday morning he rose from his bed
upstairs and in coming down stairs by
some means fell and sustained injuries
from the effect of which he succumbed
almost immediately. The deceased,
Alexander Mitchell, was born on the 11th
gf May, 1829, in the county of Armagh,
Ireland. He came to Canada in 1849 and
lived for a year in the township of Fuller-
ton. In 1850, 45 years ago, he took up
land in Elms, of which township be was
one of the first pioneers. He owned a fine
farm on the corner of the Ord concession
and the Mitchell road, on which his son
James, at present resides. • klis family
consists of William, marble cutter, Wing-
ham,
inceham, James, on the farm, (George, Detroit,
and a widowed daughter, Mrs. Geo. Mit•
ohell, living at home. There were also.
Alexander, deceased, and Mrs. Benj.
Mitchell, Barriston, deceased. Mr. Mit.
obeli had enjoyed good health and but fol'
this unfortunate accident was apparently
good for many years yet, The remains
were interred in the oemctery on the town -
line west, on Tuesday, 20th, and were
followed by a large concourse of sorrowing
relatives from the neighborhood, and from
Mitchell, Dungannon, Wingham, Detroit,
Milverton and Harriston, and by many of
his old friends from town and township.
Rev. Mr, Gunner, in the absence of the
pastor, Rev. Dr. Willoughby, conducted
the obsequies in a very impressive manner.
The deceased was highly esteemed as a
good citizen and was held in high regard
by all who knew him. He was an affec-
tionate husband, kind parent, and a con-
sistent member of the Methodist church
for about 35 years, and a sincere Christian,
he will be much missed in the community.
The bereaved widow and children and
other relatives have the deep sympathy of
the entire community in the sudden bereave-
ment of a beloved husband and kind
father. The pall bearers were: Messrs,.
W. Dunn, C. Travis, A. Douglas, W.
Clothier, J. W. Boyd and W. Hutchison,
His sons William and George were at the
funeral from Wingham and Detroit, as
also was a brother-in-law, Mr. J. G. Ward,
J. P., of Dungannon, Out.
The Salvation Army "Harvest Thanksgiving
Festival."
In 1892 Commandant H. H. Booth hit
upon a new idea for raising funds, by in-
augurating a plan for clearing poor corps
and officers of debt. The plan was an an-
nual " Harvest Festival Scheme," to be
held all over the Dominion and Newfound-
land on certain dates. This year the
dates are : Saturday, Sunday, Monday,
and Tuesday, August 31st, September lst,
2nd, and 3rd. In this scheme it is possible
for all who appreciate the Army's work to
assist in some way or other. The ofdders
of the various corps are instructed to visit
friendsg
and collect from them anything
they are able to contribute, whether it be
in cash or otherwise. Gifts of produce,
groceries, fruit, grain, cattle, poultry, 'or
anything of any description which is sale-
able will be acceptable. After the collec-
tion of these various articles a sale of tiie
same is arranged for the Monday night,
and the proceeds placed into one common
fund to help out the debts mentioned4
Commandant Booth hopes by this scheme,
also, to replenish the 'storehouses of his
various institutions, such as Rescue Homes
for fallen women, Men's Shelters, Chil-
dren's Institutions, Home for Sick Officers,
also his Industrial Farm, so that it will be
unnecessary to spend money on these arti'
cies during the fall and winter. He con-
tends that, though money is scarce, the
land is laden with good things, and he
calls upon those who have enough and to
spare to remember those who are not so
favorably circumstanced.
