byterian church, Bayfield, was held in
the town hall on Friday evening, 5th inst.
Miss Maggie Foster failed to put in an
appearance. The singing of our old
friend, Professor Jones, of Seaforth,who
never fails to meet his appointments,
was grand, and with Master Fred Foster
and Miss Sarah Morgan, thrilled the
audieuce with delight. Miss Morgan
looked as beautiful as a rosebud. Dr.
Stanbury also favared the audience with
an excellent reading. Mr. John C. Cur-
rie, of Goderich, was there also, and ex-
ercised his well-known abilities in selling
a quilt, of which Mr. McDonald be-
came the envied possessor. atter a spirit-
ed contest. The audience empathised

interruptions he 'tet with. The pro-
ceeds of the evening amounted to $130.

met with a rather serious accident here
the other day. His horse, which proved
to be but poorly shod, missed its footing
whilst crossing the bridge, and in falling
completely overturned the cutter, bury-

O'Connor, who happened to be crossing
the bridge at the moment, succeeded in
securing the horse which was becoming
very fractious, and with the assistance
of some friends, who speedily rushed to
his aid, enabled Mr. McGregor to extri-
cate himself from his rather awkward po-
sition. Mr. McGregor sustained some
p sinful injuries, which, however, will
not prevent him from attending to his
usual duties
