We clip the two following obituary
notices from the Algoma Advocate,
published at Thessalon, referring to
the demise of two elderly gentlemen
who were both well known in this vi-
cinity several years ago. The former
has reference to Mr. Geo. F. Dyer, of
whom mention was made in theses ol-
umns last week. The latter refers to
Mr. James Hagan, father of Mr. Robt.
Hagan, who married Jessie, eldest
daughter of Mr. James Ramsay one of
our respected citizens.
"On Sabbath last the community was
shocked by the intelligence that Geo. F.
Dyer of Portage City had died very
suddenly, He was at 'thee funeral of,
the late Jas. Hagan on Saturday in
his usual health and on Sunday after-
noon was suddenly called away. Mr
Dyer came from Plymouth; England,
years ago, and settled in Exeter. Hav-
ing amassed a considerable fortune at
his calling in England, being a jewel.

loss of his wife, prefering a retired and
secluded life, he came

1888 and built a residence in Portin
Portage
City on the bank of Basswood Lake,
one of the most beautiful spots in Al
gonna. Being an enthusiastic sports
man, Mr. Dyer found his choice of a
home a very happy one, as Basswood
Lake abounds with fish and the . sur-
rounding woods with game. Aithougb
preferring a retired life, his home was
visited be• many people who always
found a cordial welcome, and in spite
of his so called eccentricities, he pos
sensed a manly dignity and strict
sense of honor which won for him
many friends intheDistrict, and he
was very much respected. Mr. A. G.
Dyer, of Exeter, brother of deceased,
arrived on Wednesday evening and
on Thursday the funeral took place at
the McArthur Cemetery, Portage City.
The Masons took charge of the service
and he was buried with masoaic
honors."
"The death of Mr, James Hagan, of
Sowerby, was very sudden and unex-
pected,He was an old pioneer of Ash-
field, in the County of Huron and an
Orangeman for over thirty years and
for some time past has been an elder in

Magistrates, Court.

Snell and Clarke on a charge of assault

of the two parties and one witness, Mr.
Geo. Mantle, he (Brawn) was fined $4.00

seems the whole trouble arose from a
disputed account defendant had against
complainant, the latter claiming the
said account was paid to defendant's
brother, and on meeting on the street
an altercation arose which finally de-
veloped into blows, the complainant re
ceiving a pair of black . eyes. It is to
