week we record
the death of Mrs. Boll, wife of Robert
Bell, of Saskatchewan, and daughter-
in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Andrew Bell,
of this place. What makes the afftics
tion seen] so sad on Mr. Bell's part, is
that mime eleven months ago he was
married to his now departed wife, who
was his second partner. Mr. Bell has
the heartfelt sympathy of all, and,
while far from home, our best hopes
are that he MAY be strongly'supported
by a Higher Hand, Who never snakes
mistakes.
