Found Child on the Doorstep.
Wingham, Oct. 23.-A family by the
name of Stapleton, who live near the
brickyard. were treated to a sensation
about midnight of one day last week,
when investigating the source of a noise
they discovered a two-year-old child
lying on the doorstep. J.'he infant was
cared for and next day the matter was
placed in the hands of County Con-
stable Phippen, who found that the
mother, an unmarried girl, had dis-
appeared. The girl's mother could
give no explanation of her daughter'.
strange act. It was a fortunate chance
that led to the discovery of the tot, as
the night was a cold one, and it is
quite likely the child would have per-
ished.

SUCCESSFUL AUertoe Scut. -On
Tuesday. the 17th inst., Wesley Har-
vey held his auction sale of farm stock
and implements. Though it was rain-
ing all afternoon a large crowd was
present and the bidding was spirited.
The stock was good and the im-
plements in good repair. The sale
realized over $3,700, a goodly sum for
the necessaries of a farm. Mr. Har-
vey retained a small portion for him-
self, as he intends to retain the old
Cudmore farm, wnich he has rented
for another year. Mi. Harvey sold
his farm a few weeks ago to a Mr.
Fowler, from Toronto, for 118,700.
After putting in the crop in the spring
he intends to go West on a prospect-
ing tour with the likelihood that be
will move there, as he has numerous
friends in that land of promise. He
will be missed here in many wave.
DIED IN LONDON. --On Thursday,
toe 12th inst., after a gradual weaken-
iMdt_t of some months. Mrs. Robert
sills departed this life. 8he and her
bereaved husband after living here for
about fifty years left last August for
London to reside with their daughter,
Mrs. (Rev.) McKibbon. It was evi-
dent when she left that she bad not
long to live, but her many friends
hoped she might be spared a little
longer. She had, however, reached
the good old age of eighty-four. For
more than a generation she and her
husband kept the postoMce store here,
trusted and beloved by all. As a
member of the Methodist church she
was always to be relied upon to do her
part.. Her Christian character was
above reproach and with her death
meant the entrance into the glory
land. She was born in Scotland and
in the only years taught school in
Tuckers pith. Fifty-five veers ago
she was married in Lonaou to her
now bereaved husband and it seems e
strange coincidence that her death
should take place in the same city so
many yearsafterwards. Her daugh-
ter. are Mrs. H. Ivison, here, Mrs.
(Rev.) McKibbon, London. Mrs. (Rev.)
Gauld, Formosa, Mrs. John Balfour,
