OBITUARY Mrs.j Peter Fowler This community was saddened on JMonday when it was learned that Eu- phemia Davidson, widow of the late Peter Fowler had passed suddenly •away at the family residence Bluevale Road. Mrs. Fowler had suffered from heart trouble for a number of years. ■On Monday morning she arose as us­ ual and was apparently quite well, when she was seized with an attack •about 7.30 a.m. and passed away im­ mediately. The deceased who was in her 65th .year, was born near Galt. As a small •child she moved with her parents, the late Mr. and Mrs. Gavin Davidson to Harriston and in 1894 they came to Turnberry residing on the McLaren farm on the Bluevale Road. In Jan­ uary 1902 she was married to her late husband, who died in November 1931 following an accident, when his team ran away on Diagonal Road. Mrs. Fowler was a member of Knox Presbyterian Church, Bluevale and ■took an active interest in the affairs •of the church. She was a member of the Women’s Missionary Society and of the Ladies’ Aid. She leaves to mourn her passing two sons and one daughter, George .and Isabel at home and Jack of Lon- • don. She is also survived by three sisters and three brothers, Mrs. Jos. .Smith, Turnberry; Mrs. H. B. Elliott, ’ Wingham; Mrs. Andrew Leggatt, Hamilton; John of Ayr; Alexander of Hannon and Walter of Regina, Sask. The funeral is being held to-day (Wednesday) July 7th at 2 p.m. from the family residence, Bluevale Road. The service will be conducted by Rev. J. R. Greig of Bluevale. Interment in Wingham Cemetery. Mrs. John Mundell The entire community was shocked •when it was learned that Annie Gil­ mour, wife of Mr. John Mundell, had passed away suddenly on Tuesday might at her home, Bluevale, at the •age of 56 years. Mrs. Mundell was the youngest ‘daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Gilmour of the 9th Conces­ sion of Turnberry Township, where she lived until her marriage 32 years ago when she came to reside on the farm adjoining Bluevale. During those years she made many friends. She was an active, interested worker in the W.M.S. and Ladies’ Aid of Knox Presbyterian Church. Although not enjoying good health for some time, she was around as usual until Tuesday afternoon when she suffered .a severe chill and laped into uncon­ sciousness from which she never ral­ lied. She leaves to mourn their loss, her husband, one daughter, Hazel, and three sons, Will, Gordon and Hugh. Three brothers and two sisters also •survive. The funeral, which was largely at­ tended, was held on Thursday after­ noon from Knox Presbyterian Church the service being conducted by Rev. J. R. Greig and a former pastor, Rev. W. J. West of Stratford. During the service a solo “The Throne of Grace” was beautifully sung by Miss Margar­ et Garniss, of Brussels. The floral tributes were beautiful, showing the esteem in which she was held by relatives and friends. The re­ mains were born to the grave by three nephews, Messrs. Fraser Haugh, George Mundell and West Haugh, and three friends, C. Hetherington, jas. E. Nichol and W. S. Davidson. Interment took place in Wingham Cemetery. „ DROP SOFTBALL OPENER TO RIPLEY There was a large crowd of excited fans on hand Monday evening to see the opening game in the South Bruce Ladies’ Softball League. Ripley de­ feated the local Eagles by the narrow margin of 2 runs, the final score was 22 to 20, That the fans get a kick out of watching the’ girls play is evidenc­ ed by the large numbers that are pre­ sent at these games. The game was a seven innings affair and runs galore came in certain in­ nings, while other innings went out one-two-three. At the end of the 4th the local lassies were leading 9 to 8. The fifth was a big inning for both teams, Ripley getting 11 and the Eagles 9 to put them one down. Rip­ ley scored one in the 6th and 2 in the 8th. The best out girls could do was 2 in the 6th and no score in the 7th. Line Ups Ripley — Lillian Funston 3b; Jean MacLeon p; K. Kendrickc; G. Ferris lb; S. Finlayson cf; B. White rf; T. Fulston ss; W.

Ethel has never had a fire­ fighting apparatus. One had been or­ dered, and had arrived that day, but had not been put together, so could not be used. A bucket brigade battled the flames.

Fifty men had searched almost dail# for the farmer. The body was found by Edna Armstrong, a nurse living on a near-by farm. Dr. J. R. Riddel said examination indicated Burrough died about the day he disappeared. He had been ill for three months. No inquest will be held.
