Around About Vs.
Kippen: The death of Jas. Mac-
dougall took place at his residericehere
on Saturday morning. Mr. Macdougall
had been in poor health for sometime,
brit able to be around until about ten
days ago, when he wastaken with par-
alysis, became unconscious and gradu-
ally grew weaker until death ensued.
He will be missed by his very many
warm and old friends. A betterknown
and- rwore respected old resident was
not to Pie found His remains were
interred at Clinton on Monday.
• Clinton: The grim reaper, death,
has been busy the past week garnering
the old folks. Mr. Henry Smith, who
was one year short of fourscore, was
in good health until Wednesday of last
week when he was seized with paraly.
sis and never spoke again though he
lingered on the brink of eternity -until
Friday. For years Mrs. Leslie suffer-
ed more than words or tongue can tell
from inflannnatory rheumatism; for
months she was confined to bed and
almost entirely helpless. But she bore
the agony and the weariness with
Cli.iistian resignation.
Brucefield: The blowing of whistles,
ringing of bells and the exploding, of
bombs on the railroad track, Wednes-
day morning of last week, made us
almost think' that a detachment ot
mounted Boers Jaad suddenly swept
down on our tcrwn. After sdme in-
quiry we cliscocered the cause Of the
commotion was that two of our young
people, in the persons of Miss Ida
Simpson and Mr. Hunt, Grand Trunk'
Railway' section foreman bad that
morning been united in the holy bonds
of matrimony, the ceremony being
performed by Rev. E. H. Sowers.
The happy couple left on the morning
train to spend their honeymoon visit-
ing friends in Toronto and other
points.
Kirkton: On Wednesday evening,
Nov. 6, the residence of Mr. and Mrs.
Wm. Hazelwood, .Kirkton, was the
seetie of a fashionable event, it being
t1). marriage of their daughter, IVIary
C., to William Hill, a prosperous
young farmer of near Wooclharn. Allthe hour of 6 o'clock, to the strains of
Mendelssohn's wedding. march, played
by Mr. Geo. H. Cameron, the bridal
party entered the parlor and took
their place under ft brilliant horse-
shoe arch made with white and pink
roses and white carnations with a fine
attractive fern back-g,rouncl. The
bride was given away her father in
the presence of some seventy invited
guests. Rev. A. S. Anderson tied the
nuptial knot.
Mitchell: Mr. G. G. McPherson has
completed arrangements with capital-
ists for the construction of an electric
road Iron] Stratford to Mitchell- AP -
plication for a charter will be inade at
once to the Legislature. Stratford
council has already been asked for
such rights and privileges over the
streets of the city as the company
may deem necessary. Exemption
from taxation or rental, until the
population reaches 20,000, is also asked
form
. The company agree to carry
freight and baggage, as well' as pas-
sengers. Before final arrangements
are completed, Mitchell will have CO be
consnited in the matter, and as it is,
rather questionable whether, such a
road would in any way benefit our
town it would boas well to rnove,slow
in the matter. As it is, too much of
our ligitirnate trade goes to the county
town, and an electric read would be
sure to still benefit Stratford, to the
m
delaien f. of Mitchell. Strong argua
ments can no doubt be used in fearer
of the undertaking-, but at present we
cannot view the building of auch it
line other than as it direct injury to
'Mitchell. If the terminus was, say at
Goderich or Monkton, the circum-
stances would be different, but uncler
the present proposed plan, if carried
into edect, Mitchell would certainly
suffer.

DEAD IN A FIELD.
Tottenham, Ont., Nov. 14. --Patrick
McGovern, a highly respected farmer,
, of Adjala, left his honae on Thursday
morning, and not returning by even-
ing his friends became alarmed, and
after searching for him, he was found
dead in a field on it neighboring farm.
The night being very dark it is thought
he must have lost his way, and acci-
dentally fallen, stunned himself and
did not regain consciousness. Deceas-
ed, who was 55 years of age, leaves a
wife and nine children. iVIcGovern's
brother, Thomas, was killed by a train
in Toronto about two years ago.
-The deceased came from England 20
years ago and spent most of her life
in Seaforth. 'She had resided NVith
her son ,during a portion of last year
and left in the spring to visit her
daughter. She returned here a few
weeks ago but has been in poor health,
and contracting a cold at the evangel-
istic meetings in the rink pneumonia
set in and carried her off. The funeral
took place on Tuesday •afternoon to
the Methodist Church, and on Wednes-
day morning by train to Tilson burg she
leaves six daughters and two sons to
mourn her loss. '

Morris:—A particularly sad occur-
rence is the -death of Mrs. Archibald
Kerr'which took Place on Saturday
last: Deceased had been working pretty
hard during the sumn-rer, and got lain
down; while under the doctor's care,
about a month ago she took a slight
dose Of carbolic acid by mistake for
medicine; she instantly discovered the
error, and the doctor did all he could
to relieve her sy•stein of the poison's
effect, but apparently without success;
for she never left her, bed after the ac-
cident, passing peacefully away on
Saturday afternoon. Deceased WAS
very highly esteemedandleaves a hits -
band and four ehildren who have the
sympathy of the entire commimity.
What makes the event all the 'More
sad, is the fact that Mrs.' Kerr's father,
Mr. A. McAlpine, of Dutton, also died
sriddenly last week. •

The
Croup.
Its a terrible thing, isn't
t• it? Somehow, that awful
t cough, that hard struggle
Lu for air, can never be for-
gotten. Be a little fore-
handed and prevent it.
Keep Vapo-Cresolene in the house,
and when the children take cold let
them breathe -in the vapor during the
evening. It goes right to the thrbat)
just where the croup lies. All
irritation subsides, the cough quiets
down and serious trouble is prevented.
It never ta:Is to cure whooping coug,11.12
