look for return of higher temperature,
falling barometer and more falling

Death of John Preszcator.
One after another the pioneers of
Stephen are departing from among us,
leaving only those marks and evidence
of the toil and hardships they endured
in transforming the unbroken forest
into the well -tilled fields, excellent
farms with their beautiful homes and
surroundings, and the lustre of their
untarnished names for the guidance
and emulation of the younger genera-
tion. This week it becomes our duty
to record the death of Mr. John Presz-
cater, Sr., of the 3rd concession of
Stephen, who passed to his reward on
Thursday evening last, at the great
age of 77 years, 3 months and. 17 days.
The deceased had been ailing for about
three months from no particular dis-
ease any more than ageneral breasting
upof the system. Mr. Preszcator was
a native of Germany and came to Can-
ada with his parents when about four
years old, settling near Guelph, where
he remained about twenty years. He
then moved to the township of Step-
hen, took up the farm or homestead on
which he died, living therecontinuous-
ly ever since., His nature was singu-
larly reserved and unobtrusive but he
was a man of stirling qualities, a good
neighbor and true friend. In politics
he was Conservative and when health
premitted was a regular attendant at
Che 'means:of grace, being a member
of the Main Street Methodist church.
Besides a sor rowing widow he is sur-
vived by two sons and three daughters
all of whom were at his bedside when
the end came Samuel, of Stephen, John
on the homestead; Mrs. Chris. Luker,
Exeter; Mrs. John Prang, Goderich;
and Mrs. Wrn. Wilson, Tuckersmith.

cemetery Saturday,
