DEATH. -One of the saddest deaths
which it has been our duty to record,
occurred at the residence of Miss Mc-
Innis, Ann street, on Friday evening,
when Miss Mary McInnes, daughter
of Mr. Daniel McInnis, formerly of
Stephen township, but now of Mar-
quette, Mich., .passed to her reward.
The deceased girl was the victim of a
pectiliar accident, which was the cause
of death. It appears she was in her
aunt's stable about three weeks ago
bunting for eggs, and when jumping
off a box landed on a board from which
a rusty nail was protruding. This en-
tered her foot, and although remedies
were provided and the wound seemed
to heal, blood .poisouing set in on the
Monday previous to her death and
lockjaw soon followed, bringing terri-
ble agony and untimely death. The
deceased bas been living evith her aunt
for some years, her mother being dead
and has been attending High School
here, being a bright and cheerful schol-
ar, and will be greatly missed by her
young friends at school. Mr. McInnis
arrived here about two hours before
the end came, and has much sympathy
hi his affliction. Two sisters, one from
Ressemer, Mich., and one from Minne-
apolis, Minn., also attended the funer-
al, which took place on Monday to the
church of the Sacred Heart, where the
pastor, Rev. Father McRae, celebrated
a solemn requiem mass, the solemn
cortege afterwards wending its way
to Mt. Carmel cemetery, where the in-
terment took place in the plot where
her mother was laid away soine ten
years ago. Among the many beauti-
ful floral decorations laid on the casket
was a handsome floral. cross, a last tri-
bute from the High School teachers to
a faithful scholar. '

DEATH or WM. BAKER -There pass-
ed away at his peaceful home here on
Monday morning last, William Baker,
one of the early settlers of Stephen
township, a, successful farmer and a
man noted for his strict integrity. Mr.
Baker had been in failing health sever-
al months from stomach trouble, but
the seriousness of his trouble was not
manifest until a few days previous to
his death, when the gravity of his
situation was unmistakable and sink.-
ing, slowly but sorely the curtain was
rung down on his brave and kindly
life. Deceased was born in England,
and came to this country when quite
young, and was among the early
settlers who did so much towards
transforming the unbroken forest into
well -tilled fields. He was a man of un-
usual strength and energy and had
every appearance of a long life ahead

date desk for his post office work.
