Dna.T0.---Although this sad event was not unexpected, the announce- ment of the death of .Mr.-Seldon Ross caused a feeling of deepest 'sorrow. Mr. Ross passed peacefully away at the parental home on Friday, at the age of 27 years. He was the fourth S00 of Mr. Alexander Ross and was born on the homestead farm near here. Alter leaving home he learned the business of carriage blacksmith and worked at that in Seaforth and other places for a time. A few years ago he went -to Chicago and studied dentistry there and was practising in that city when the illness which resulted in his early death overtook hini. He came home a few weeks ago xvith the hope that the change and rest would 'prove beneficial, but the d;sease had become too firmly seated to be eradicated and he gradually grew weaker until the end ciune. He was a most 'exemplary young man, who was liked and re- spected by all who enjoyed his ac- quaintance and had his life been spared he would, undoubtedly, have come rapidly to the front, as he was natural- ly clever and was well skilled in 'his profession. His death is a severe blow to his parents and -friends, who have the sincerest sympathy of the eetire community. ember and officer in the ehitrelheonn ntends retiring to Exeter.

ENTERTAINMENT. -The entertain- rxient given in the Methodist church of this place, on Friday night last was a decided success. The night was beau- tiful and the people gathered ingood- ly nninbers to hear the program. The chief entertainers were Prof. McKay, of Toron to, assisted by a quartette from Tames street church, Exeter. Prof. Mcliay is a marked' xnan in his day, and has few equals as an entertainer. His Manner of attraction consisted in short, pointed speeches and recitations together with many illustrations of Irish and Scotch huinor, which were quite novel and up-to-date in their de- sign. They were clean and free from anything that might mar the feelings of the most fastidious. Mr. McKay excells in his line. At interstate the Professor's remarks wet e i nterspersed by selections from the Exeter quar- tette, which consisted of solos, guar- tetts and glees, These selections were bright and cheery and were beautiful- ly rendered. The singing by the quar- tette was that of much satisfaction and appreciation of their hearers, in evi- deece, of which could be seen from the continuous applause and in some in- stances nothitig short of an enehore would gratify the wishes of the people, u natty last week.

He leaves a Wife, four setts and three daughters, to Monett theloss of a loving husband and kind parent. The sympathy of the community is ex- tended to the bereaved family. The funeral ceremony was conducted by Father Pudd'homme, of St. Peter's church, Drysdale, the resident priest, Father Valentine, being still at Lon- don Hospital. tritium L. PEINE DEAD, -Word was received here Thursday announcing the death of Peine, a forraer res- ident of this place. He was proprietor of the Commercial Hotel for some years and about four pears ago remov- ed to London, taking charge of "The Richmond" wbich he -managed for a few'years. Owing to ill health be bad to retire from active business and was living retired at London at the time of his death. The London Free Press of Friday, speaks of his death thus:- Mr. 11. L. Peine, grocer, of South Lon- don, died yesterday. His death came as a sad surprise to many of his friends, who were unaware of the serious mal- ady from which he suffered. Mr. Peine was about only a few days ago, and though not apparently robust, he iwas cheerful and able to attend to business. Bright's Disease was the fatal illness.
