Oisir.-One of the oldest pioneers of
Crediton passed from amongst us last
week in the person of Wm Sweet, batter
known as Grandpa Sweet. Mr Sweet
arrived in this country from Cornwall,
Eng , in the year 1817, and Stook up his
home in Darlington for one and a half
years, andthen moved here as one of the
Bret settlers, hewing out a hcnie for him-
self where a portion of the village now
stands. In the early days it was nothing
unusual for hint to walk to London or
Goderich and home again, carrying hie
iu.,dh with bin.. Tio nwu cuuiueu liete
about torty.five and a half years, and died
at the respectable age of 85 year and 6
months. His first wife died about 15
years ago, and some time ago he married
agr.in to hie widow, who survives hint et
the ripe age of 94 years. He leaves fur-
ther surviving him one daughter and one
son. Two ot his children, one daughter
(Mrs Isaac Hill) and one son (William
Sweet) haying died some time ago. Mr.
Sweet, during his life -time was a very
honest and honorable man, a person of
strong religious inclinations, being a faith-
ful member of the Methodist church, and a
man of strong temperance habits. In
polities he was a' Reformer, and always
took great pride at Parliamentary and
Municipal elections of being the first per-
son to cast his ballot as soon -as the poll
was open. Last Sunday Mr Sweet at-
tended church as usual, and started in the
afternoon to walk to a church 3 miles sou th
of here, but was overtaken by J. Clarke,
who gave him a ride, and apparently was
as well as ever, but during the night, took
afck and shortly after became speechless,
and lingered in that state until Thureday
morning at 3 a. m. He was buried in the
Exeter cemeterylast Friday. Rey. Baker
preached the funeral sermon in the town
hall. Text: Proverbs xxvii, 1. There
was a large attendance at the : funeral of
friends and relatives.

in the lake at this place during the past two
weeks. The victim this time was Mr,Benj,
Brown, son of Mr, Geo. Brown, merob
ant of Btineley, and the accident tinctured
on Friday last. Mr Brown, accompanied
by another young man, dressed in their
bathing suite, had rowel a oonsiderabie
distance out into the lake to where a largo
party were bathing: They jumped into
the water with the others, but Brown pot
being a swimmer commenced to drown
Mr. Geo. Snell of 'miter, roseued him and
placed him candy int o the beat, telling his
companion to row Brown to the shore.
Getting to within a short distance of
land,"Brown, thinking he could "bottom
it," again got into the water, but it being
deeper than anticipated he went down. He
gave the al arm, but before anyone could
reaoh him he was drowned. The yonng
man was about 21 years of age, olever and
