The deceased has been a long sufferer ft= the ravages of that dread disease,consumption the primary cause of which was a severe hemorrhage of the lungs, consequently his demise was not in the least unexpected. The disease made itself manifest about two years ago and from. that time to that of his death he has been practic- ally tillable to do his farm duties. Ile was a son of the late Richard Box and previous to his illness was an ambit- ious, industrious and hard working young men. Some few- years ago he married. it Miss Petterson, daughter of Mr. N. Petterson,then of this place, but now of Barwick, Algoma District. Besides the sorrowing widow he leaves to mourn his loss one son, eleven months old and a.little babe six weeks old. To the bereaved the genuine sympathy of the whole community is extended. The funeral takes place to- day (Thursday) to the Exeter ceme- tery.

Her marriage proved it singolarly happy one, the old home being: known far for the hospitality and gond will of Mr. and Mrs. Itandford. Eleven children were born to them, eight of whom, Janet's and Richard, of Centralia, Silas' and Thomas He. of Exeter, Samuel, Caleb and Mrs. John Hicks, Manitoba, autl Mrs. W. F.

Mrs. Handford early embraced Christianity and was a consistent and devoted member of the Methodist ehurch,her life being an exceptional one for Christian zee' aud acts of charity. The funeral ,which took place on Saturday, 19th inst., WAS largely attended, the services at the house awl at the grave being conduct- ed by Rev. B. L. Hutton, of Centralia. The services at the house were of a very impressive character, Mr. Hutton, speaking very feelingly of the devoted Christian character of the deceased and used her favorite hymns,"Rock of Agee," and"Jesus Lover of my Soul." The remains were laid in their lnst rest- ing place in the Exeter cemetery beside those of her hnsband, the pall bearers being six old friends and neighbors, viz: -Messrs. Thomas May and John Essery, of Exeter; Thomas Essery, Richard Hicks, Williarci Baker and Richard Neil, of Centralia. Thus, ver- ily, a mother in Israel has been called home and one of the hest examples of a life of industry and devotion to her family and all who needed her sympa- thy and attention has gone to her re- ward, rejoicing in the hope of a glor- ious resurreption. Her name- willIong be cherished and held in sweet remem- brance by those amoteg whom her life was a blessing. - M*', 41414 • 14 N 711 au. 0 Itraeat. a eine AttneiteoXe-In 10.itt0. 011 Apri1:13, tat 31e. end Mae IL N.
