Deceased was the daughter of the late Wm. Oke, of Usboi•ne, and leaves, besides a sorrowing husband, three brothers and one sister. Mrs. Barton was of a reserved nature but kind and true and a woman in the true sense of the word. Her numerous friends will learn of, her demise with profound regret.

She was ten- dered encores after each rendition to ail of which she responded with grace and gond will. The selection, ,There's a Land'.

After a course of four or five years in which Mr. McPhillips proved himself able and bright, he went to Toronto, and was admitted to the bar and began the practice of law in the firm of Cameron & Appleby. Later, upon the death of Mr. Appleby, Mr. McPhillips entered into apartnership with the senior part- ner, Mr. Hector Cameron,the firm name being Cameron & McPhillips, In this firm Mr. McPhillips continued for sonie years, and made a name for him- self in all points of law.
