Twelve jurymen have said that Ger-
ald Sifton, the roan charged with hav-
ing murdered Ws father iu London
township about two and a half years
ago, is innocent of the crime. and con-
sequently he has been released from
the prison cell, To the Timis of marry
the verdict is surprise and contrary
to their expectations, however, Igo
matter what a person's opinion may
}ii they have no legal right to say or
assume that he was guilty. As the
Woodstoelt Le
ss zeuar s, the
re-
sult of the trial leaves the situation
complicated in as manner unique in :the
aamalsof crime. Did Walter Herbert
confess to a. crime which was never
committed, and if so, why did he do
so: Will he Le punished, ou itis own
confession, for as ninnrtier which at ,jatry
has virtually said ut-ver tool: place?
Instances are unknown of people con-
fessing to crimes that had no existeiace
but usatally nudes the influence of
threats or torture. Assuming the jtiiy
to be right, how is l'Ierbert's conduct
to be accounted for? He was not tar•
Owed into snaking a>r eonfessaonr he is
not mentally weal:, The result of the
trial is interesting, too, as showing the
value which jurors sometimes place
on direst evidence, In two of the
utast sensational trials ever held in
Loudon the ,motes acquitted in the face
of direct evidence. In the Biddulph
tea+gedy there was the evidence, tin
shaalterr, of Johnny O'Connoi, who
claimed to lave been an eyewitness
of the terrible deed, yet the s;nry .ac=
quitted. In the Sifton trial the jury
has refaced to believe the evidence of
a man who pieced his own neck in the'
halter when he gave it. It appears to
be causing to this, that if a• anau wants
to commit ai. murder and escape his
safest plan is to secure au eyewitness,
;and take the ammo of the jury Wes.
ing to believe the witness' ,story.

The solving of the Tarte-Silton row
has been the least of Sir Wilfrid Lads
lei's troubles, since his l'eturn home,'
The retirement of Mr. Tarte was the
signal for all sorts of pranks on the
part of the prentiea'sso1id (?) following.
Han. L. 1?. Brodeur, Mr. Raymond
Prefeantrtine, and Zion. James Suther-
laud inm edietcly started in to seize the
vacant portfolio. All have friends,;
and the several factions are having a
righb:•oyaI fight as to who shalt con-
trol the great spending department.
Of course Sir Wilfrid isgetting the full
benefit of all this din, and in the mean-
time public business is looking after;
itself to a very considerable extent,
Some =augment will be made so as
to effect a temporary truce at least,
but the ultimate elect of the appoint-
ment of one or other of *,.be contest-
ants is bound to be felt. The Liberal
party has a whole lot of things to'
straighten out when it all gets togeth-

McGillivray
GOLDEN' WEDDING.—On Tuesday,
Oct .Stb,a very Pleasant event took
lace at the borne of Mr.and Mrs. Wm.L. O'Neil, of the 13th concession, the
occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of
their wedding day. There were pres-
ent their children and grandchildren
and other friends and neighbors from
Merton, London, Grand Rapids, Cor-
bett and Olandeboye to bestow con-
gratulations on them, upon the attain-
ment of the jubilee of their married
life. Rev. and Mrs. L. W. Diehl. and
Rev. and Mrs. S.Knott, of Ailsa Craigg,
were present to convey the usual con-
gratulations. There were about forty
guests, all told. A number of beauti-
ful and useful presents were presented
to the venerable couple. At the close
of a most sumptuous dinner, a delight-
ful and enjoyable time was spent in
i nusic, vocal and instrumental, and ap-
propriate addresses. Mr. O'Neil was
born in London township in the year
1825 and carne to McGillivray in the
year 1847, settling on the farm where
he still resides. In 1852 he was married
to Miss Mary J. Beamer, stepdaughter
of the late Wm. Baynton. She minis-
ter, Rev. Mr. Williams; of Exeter, who
ffi
ociated at the marriage ceremony,
did not have the luxury of a horse and
buggy as the clergyof now -a -days have,
but rode on horseback a distance of fif-
teen miles. Mr. O'Neil has since com-
ing to McGillivray, followed his pres-
ent occupation, that of farming, but
not only this, he did a. great deal of
carpenter work in his day, and about
twenty years ago went most extensive-
ly into beekeeping, which undertaking
he has carried on most successfully.
As a sportsman he had no equal and
took no small pleasure in hunting and
trapping.: Mr. and Mrs. O'Neil are still
both hale and hearty and surrounded
with the comforts of life. They bid
fair to realise the wish of their children
and friends, that they may be spared
for many years to enjoy the blessings
which a kind Providence has given
them. Their family consisted of six
children -five daughters and one son.
Two of the daughters-Clemintine and
Johanna -died some years ago. Of the
remaining daughters, Matilda Jane is
'married ,.to, Mr. Bobt.'Haardy, of Brins
