This is a week - later than usual, which is is in con- sequence of representation from the Montreal board of trade to the effect that the practice of fixing the third Thursday in November as. Thanksgiv• ing Day works detrimentally to trade. It was stated that it particularly effects the forwarding trade, whose represent- atives pointed out that navigation is not over by the third Thursday in No yember, and the absence 'for the whole day of the men from the canals is an injury to trade at a time when even Sunday is not excepted from work, The Government therefore decided on the fourth Thursday in Novemleee as Thanksgiving Day.

Speers, Jr,, is asking the divisional court at Toronto to de- clare• invalid the will of his father, Joseph Speers, made in 1893, which left him a little of his $10,000, and to de . glare valid a former will of 1390, which the son says was the only will he was, mentally capable of making, and which left him all. Heirs who come under the last will say that Judge Doyle, of Huron County, was right in .declaring the last will valid, but Mr. Speers, Jr., says Judge Doyle was not the : senior. judge of Huron county, and had no power to adjusticate the matter. Seaforth: A once familiar figure has been removed from.our midst by the. death of Mr. C. M. Dunlop, which ,took place at his residence, in this town, on Tuesday last. The event was not un- expected, as he had been confined to his residence for about seven months, and had been iri failing health for over a year. He was a severe sufferer and on account of the nature of his disease was unable to rest in bed, and for sev- eral months was obliged to sit in a chair night and day, He .leaves a widow and two sons to mourn the loss of an affectionate 'husband and ever kind and indulgent parent.
