Being much ad- mired and beloved the bride received a number of useful and handsome pres- ents. Mr. and Mrs. Aberhart have taken up their residence at the home of the groom, on the Mill road, amidst the well -wishes of a large circle of friends and acquaintances. DEATH.—We have referred on dif- ferent occasions to the failing health of Mr. William McNaughton, council- lor of this township. Indeed it has been known for some time that he was suffering from cancer in the stomach and that recovery was impossible. The disease culminated in his death on Friday at his home on the 7th con- cession. He was just, we might say, in.the prime of life, -being 50 years and 13 days, and by industry and good management had succeeded in mak- ing his surroundings most comfortable and had his life been spared to the al- loted span was in a position to enjoy the remainder of his days in compara- tive leisure. But for some reason an all wise Providence decreed otherwise. Although not a native of Tuckersmith, Mr. McNaughton had been a resident of the township most of bis life. With his father and other member of the family they settled on the farm on the 2nd concession, now owned and occu- pied by Mr. John McNaughton, the only surviving brother. He had lived on the farm on the 7th concession for about 28 years and succeeded in mak- ing it one of the most comfortable homesteads in the township. He bad been a member of the township coun- cil for several years and proyed him- self a most conscientious and efficient official, while his straightforward, hon- orable disposition secured him the con- fidence of all who knew him. Mrs. McNaughton, a daughter of the late D.Ferguson,of Tuckersmith, and a son survive. The sincerest sympathy of all will be extended to them on ac- count of their irreparable loss.
