NOTES. -Mrs. Neil McKellar, who
has been ailing with a ling,ering can-
cer for tee 00 twelve years, is now con-
fined to her bed. The disease that ap-
peared to be working about the nose
and face during this long period of
time has now extended its operation to
the throat. She has the syinpathy of
the vicinity in her painful illness. -
Mr. Geo. Stacey, who sold his farin
to Mr. Anthony Allan last fall, pur-
chased another one of 150 acres in Fill-

he went to Manitoba, but not caring
for the place he retux.ned and intends
remaining in Ontario. A few clays ago
he moved his stock, implements and
houseeold goods unto his new lama.
DRAM -While the angel of death
has been making sad havoc in this sec-
tion during the past few -months, yet
nearly all that have passed away have
live the alloted three score and ten.
This week we are called upon to chron-
icle the death of Miss Emma Rosetta,
Conch, which sad and melancholy
event occurred on Good Friday. De-
ceased had just budded into woman-
hood heing only in her 191h year. The
deceased had been in poor health for
some time and was unable to with-
stand the fell destroyer of grip. She
was a universal favorite with her com-
rades and friends, and her untimely -
demise has cast agloom over this place.
The funeral Sunday was largely at-
tended.
Win. Leask, a well-known resident,
who lives six miles north of Dominion
City, Man., fatally shot himself Mon:
day morning at his home. The cir-
cumstances point to a case of suicide.
The deceased was about 40 years of age
and leaves a, wife and one child.
