He was born October 10th> 1867, on the farm now occupied by . Wm. Ford and Gordon Heywood and has resided in this community all his life, spending most of his life in Exeter where he tva© a canpen'ter and builder. After the death of his wi:e; whose maiden name was Caro­ line Finkbeiner/ in 1934, he came to live with his sister, Mrs. H- Par­ sons, James Street. The night be­ fore Thanksgiving of the same year he had a stroke and after seven weeks io bed was able to be around with the help of a cane and friends. On August 3rd, he had another stroke rendering him helpless and seriously ill until October 3rd, 1935 he was taken to Victoria Hospital in London for 4 weeks and 3 days and then transferred to the Parkwood Hospital where he received the best of care during his long illness, pas­ sing away on September '1'5th. Mr. Heywood Ayas converted under the pastorate of the late Dr. Willoughby of James Street church, and lived and died trusting in his Saviour with a firm faith. He was a lover of music and song; he loved good poetry and wrote it himself, Dur­ ing his illness he asked that the fol­ lowing beautiful poem “Instead” be printed following his death- notice. The funeral service, Friday of last week was conducted from the home of his sister Mi’s. H, Parsons, con­ ducted by Rev. Arthur Page, of James Street United church. Mrs. Geo. Williams and Mrs. Doupe .sang one of Mr. Heywood’s favorite songs “Saved by Grace” with tender ex­ pression and feeling. Interment took place in the Crediton cemetery. Instead When I am dead, forget me dear, For I shall never know. Though o’er my cold and lifeless form Your burning tears should flow. I’ll cancel with my living voice The debt you’ll owe the dead; Give me the love, you’d show then, But give it And bring no grave, For I shall Though al] the ’flowers I loved most Should grow and wither there. I’ll sell my chance of all the flowers You’ll lavish when I’m dead, For one small bunch of violets now; So give them now, What saints we are ■gone, But what’s the use Of praises written on frry tomb, For other eyes to see. One little simple word of praise By'lips we worship said, Is w-orth a dozen epitaphs, Dear, say it now, instead. And faults that now are hard bear, Oblivion then shall win; Our sins are soon forgiven us, When we no more can sin*.

In 1893, Isaac Ratten'bury, Sr,, who had conducted the hostelry for many years, sold the business to brother, Joseph, who leased it to Michael -Stanley. Later Alexander Robinson was the proprietor who oc­ cupied the house until the fire of 1903, when t'he hotel and contents were totally destroyed, along with a number, of • other buildings.

W.0 es­ and sired Seventy-two per cent, of all fa­ talities in Ontario, according to, the Department of Highways, occur when the weather is clear and, the sroads are dry; 70 pen1 cent, of all acci­ dents happen when clear weather conditions prevail and 66 per cent, when the roads are diry. The fact that most accidents occur in clear weather and on dry roads may seem surprised at first glance. It will prove less baffling if you remember that speed tod fast for conditions is the chief cause of accidents. Most drivers have learned that they1 must slow down when weath&r or road conditions bre bad. What they have yet to learn is that a little less speed under all conditions is good driving practice, Childish Candor Several members of a Women’s drawing-room working party were chatting to a little their hostess. “I suppose you are to your mammal” said one. . “Oh, yes,” replied the child, so is joan; but today it’s,my to count the spoons after you are all gone.” daughter of a great help '‘arid turn 711 In again seeking the support of my fellow-electors on election day, October 6th, I am remindful and grateful for the splendid vote that was given me in the last elec­ tion and I also appreciate the confidence again placed in me at the Liberal conven­ tion. During my term as member I have ever been mindful of the interests of the ' tax-payers of Huron County and have supported Mr. Hepburn with his program of tax reductions. Much has been accomplished .in the matter of Highways, Roads and Bridges for Huron. Under Premier Hepburn the provincial government has assumed the total cost of all Highways and has increased by ten per cent, the .grant on all Township roads. The government has assumed the entire cost of Mothers’ Allow­ ances. and of Old Age Pensions. The amusement tax, a source of annoyance, has been lifted. A subsidy of one mill on the local assessment has been given to each municipality. The reduction in Hydro rates has meant dollars to the consumers and is . enabling of the extension of this utility to the farmers of this county. The latest sav­ ing, which benefits all motorists, is a $5.00 reduction in automobile license fees. Regardless of political affiliations, every citizen must admit, if he is sincere with himself, that the administration of Premier Hepburn has relieved the drain and strain of the tax-payers’ Pocket-books in many ways. On October 6th you will have the opportunity of showing how much you appreciate the handling of the finances of this province. The savings that havebeen effected for the people of the County of Huron since the Hepburn Administraton took office amounts to the amazing sum of $336,- 175.55 and is made up as follows: 20% cost of Prov. Highways, now assumed by Govern, to Mar. 31, ’37 $ Highways assumed by Govern., amount since spent by Govern, less 50% Increased Grants Township Roads 40% to 50% —10 per cent, equals 2 Years Savings Registry Offices, municipality refunded Old Age Pensions assumed by Government ......................
