the late Mrs. Elliott Miller and her.
.nfant daughter, Dorothy, last Friday

respect for the departed and their
sympathy for the bereaved.
Mrs. Miller, formerly Miss Lavina
Sherwood, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Samuel Sherwood, of Ashfield, and a
oride of last November, died on Oct.
18, following the birth and death di
her daughter, Dorothy.
Of a kind and sunny disposition,
Mrs. Miller made friends among both
young and old wherever she went,
and her death at the early age of 25,
has left a blank in the lives of many
that it will be impossible to fill.
Sympathy was expressed by many
beautiful floral offerings, including
one from the Guild of the Presbyter-
an Church.
Besides her husband and parents,
are left three brothers in the West,
and one at home; three sisters, Mjrs.

That some men are 'out of work
and out of money was made plain to
County Constable Moore last Mon
day night, when, on information giv
en him, he visited a young man who
was camping out among the cedar
bushes just beyond Torrance’s corner,
a mile east of town. On visiting the
camp, Constable Moore learned that
the young fellow, who was going no
where in particular, having no mon
ey to pay for lodging, had decided
to do without supper and pass the
night in the scant shelter of the ce
dars, warmed by a fire which he had
kindled. But so many “spooky” men
have appeared between here and
Whitechurch in recent years, that the
inhabitants of that district have be
come suspicious, and readily report
to the authorities. Moore took the
wayfarer to his own lodging, gave
him supper, bed and breakfast and
sent him on his way, if not rejoicing,

if he had slept in the open and, had
water from the brook for his break-
