Both of these deaths were in the family of Mr. and Mrs. James Wilson. Quebec street. Their eldest daughter. Hazel Irene, in her twentieth year. passed away on Monday, and on Wednesday the second deughter, Retta Elizabeth. eighteen years of age. succumbed to the disease.

Graham, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Graham of town, which occurred early that morning at Hamilton. Mr. and Mrs. Graham were at Hamilton at the time. having gone down on Thursday to visit their son. On Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock he went to the city hospital, having contracted the "Spanish influen- za: uen- za,' and Saturday morning at 3 o'clock he passed away. Dr. Graham was born in Ashfield October 17. 18134, and was thus in his thirty-fourth year. He at- tended Goderich Collegiate. Institute. took his medical course at the University of Toronto. and a post -graduate course of two years at King's County hospital, Brooklyn. He had been practising at Hamilton the last seven years and had won for himself a splendid partition in the medical profession of the city. He was the only child of Mr. and Mrs. Graham. and they have the heartfelt sympathy of all who know them in their sad and unex- pected bereavement. The remains were brought to Goderich One a funeral service at Hamilton, and we interred in Maitland cerpetery on Wednesday afternoon with Mnaaoit` hon- ors. The service at the family home, Newgate erect, was conducted by Rev. Dr. Rutledge. The pallbearers were members of Maitland Lodge, A., F. and A. M.: L. L. Knox. A. J. Cowper, L. M. Mabee. 1. H.
