The dread destroyer, consumption, has levied a heavy toll on the family, the lit to succumb being Martin, though it was really heart failure rather than lung trouble that caused his death, Mince September last his heart had leen getting weak and the heart action weakened rapidly since about the middle of November. Him death took place on Thursday evening, December letb, and the funeral was on the fol. lowing SaturiHy morning, the inter- ment being (made at St. Augustine. High wows was sung by Fattrsr Ilan• Ion and Father l.aurendean preached a short but very consoling sermon.

Campbell, Albert Don• ovan and Edward Donovan. The fun- eral was largely attended by friends and neighbors and M. L. McCan, cousin of the deceased',', carne from Buffalo for the nt1sequiee. It is with- in only the short period of five yeast** that the another of the family, three brothers and a sister have been called away, and the sincerest sympathy of all is with the sole surviving sister in her heavy bereavement.
