About a week :ego Mr. McLeod contracted a cold. which developed into inflammation of the bungs and latter to pneunienia, and owing to his system been rundown (having been raring for beam stepson, who t has been dangerously ill,)hegrad- nl y grew wore until early Tuesday morning, when he suceumbetl to the nlahady-. Mr. 1. Leod was well-known by all, and his sudden and unexpected demise was learned with deep regret.. He always had a kind word for every- body and will be missed by all. The funeral took plaee Thursday to St. James church for service and inter- ment. The sympathy of the comn4un ity is extended to Mrs. McLeod and bereaved friends, There passed away at his father's residence on Tuesday, Oct. 27th, one of our young and re- spectedcitizens in the person of Mr. John Robinson, in his 22nd year. De- ceased had been ailing for about three months, but for some time slight hopes were entertainedfor his recovery, and the last three weeks he has sunk rapid- ly and passed away to join the silent majority. Deceased was an exemplary young man and much thought of by his associates. Although his death was not in the least unexpected yet it leaves to sting, and to -day he is missed from his home, where he was much beloved, He leaves to mourn his de- mise his grief stricken parents, three sisters and five brothers, who have the genuine sympathy of the community in their sad affliction. The funeral on Thursday was largely attended, there - mains being laid to rest in St. Jaynes' cemetery. BIRTHS. SHIRRAY—In Hay, on Oct. 30, to Mr. and Mrs. David Shirray, a son.
