Our village is again without a doctor.
There is a good opening for a good,
active man in that profession.
Mrs. Hillyard has been suffering for
the past week from a severe attack of
illness. We hope to see her around as
usual ere long.
"Intemperance r.. War" was discuss-
ed by the members of Maitland Temple
at their meeting last week. Intemper-
ance won the day.
Rev. A. Hillyard has a pair of old can -
Aries, which have hatched three broods
of young ones since January, but unfor-
tunately they all died.
Active work has commenced at the
new Auburn House, and the contractor
expects to have the old building moved
before long. Mr. Marshall has also
commenced building operations.
The waters of the Maitland still re-
main high, being fully two feet above the
average summer depth. A few of the
boys, who are too busy to go to school,
have found time to try their hand at
fishing, but so far their efforts have met
with no great success.

Sabbath last. His place here was tilled
in the morning by Rev. J. A. Turnbull.
