Without a doubt it was the finest game of the season. Errorless basebal-l kept the fans on the jump from start to finish and when Strat­ ford came back in the seventh in­ ning to tie the score excitement ran high among the players and fans alike. 'The Hensail team deserved to win as they outhit the Stratford team 11 to 4 but in the fielding the teams were. even. Welsh was on the mound for Hensalfl and was in­ vincible. He struck out nine men be­ sides getting two hits and scoring two runs himself. Stratford used two pitchers. Tunney relieved Fie- big in the fifth inning but neither were equal to Welsh. Five hits in the fifth inning netted the winners two runs. Stratford tied it up in the seventh when Gardiner singled to -score after Welsh had walked three men to fill the sacks after two1 were out. Hensall won the ball game in ■the ninth. With one man down. Welsh hit to the left field and stole second. The next man fanned. At this stage Carrick was put in tc pinch hit. He socked -the first one down the first base line foul. On the next ball he sent it sailing over second for a clean single and Welsh scored easily. The infields -gave (their pitchers good support and made some good plays to first base. Stratford .had one double play. The Umpires were Forgue and Legg, of London. The batteries were .Hensall, Welsh and Joynt; Strat­ ford, Feibig, Tunney and Gardiner.

J. Cornish is 90 years Of age and can boast that lie has rode on everything from a wagon drawn by a yoke of oxen to an air­ plane, with the exception of a motor­ cycle. He expressed his desire to have a ride on one of these in the near future. Mr. Cornish said he was nothin the least nervous while in the air, he wished he could take a trip of some length such as an oceanic hop. Mr, Cornish- was born in Devon­ shire, England, in 1-843. His father came out to this country in 1850 in 18-52 he, his mother and older brother and sister came out, They were six weeks from the time they lef-t Plymouth until they landed at Quebec, from there they journeyed to the sixth of Usborne where they found his father had cleared a small space in the forest and built a small shanty about ten feet square. In five years a log house was built in which ten children were raised, Mr Cornish being the only surviving boy he was the third oldest child. During the early days there were no roads, people followed a blazed trail through the forest; in later years corduroy roads were built Oxen were the first means of trans­ portation on the Cornish’s farm. Mr Cornish recalled driving the yoke for his father while he was plough­ ing he recalled now the plough would break a root which would fly back and hit hi,m on the leg almost breaking it. His father traded a yoke of oxen for a. three-year-old colt. This paved the way tor ban­ ishing the oxen from the Cornish farm. The drive of twenty-two miles to London was recalled, this trip took two days to go and return; They were forced to drive twenty miles to -St. Job with>their grist. He recalled the abundance of wild ani­ mals, bears and deers being the most prominent. He recalled of often hearing the bears walking on the cabin roof at night.
