Another respected pioneer passed
peacefully away to the great major-
ity, at the home of her son, Mr. Jos-
eph Grasby, Morris, where she had
gone for a visit about six weeks ago,
on Friday evening, May 5th. Mrs.
Grasby was born near Enniskillen,
Ireland, 89 years ago, coming out to
Canada, first taking up ber residence in
the County of Peel, where in Septem-
ber,1852, she was married to Mr. Gras -
by, who predeceased her nine months
ago. Shortly afterwards they moved
to the Township of Hullett, settling
on lot 14, con. 10, where they lived con-
tinuously for nearly 63 years. Of a
family of nine children four remain.
Joseph and James, of Morris, Charl-
es, of Blyth, and Thomas, on the
homestead. Mrs. Grasby was a
woman of sterling worth, a conscien-
tious christian, consequently she
had a good influence upon all who
came within the circle of her ac-
quaintance. She was a life long
Methodist and much respected, in
whose home hospitally was meted
out unstintingly all these years.

Some people have a tendency to be-
come thin -blooded just as others have
an inherited tendency to rheumatism
or nervous disorders. The condition
in which the blood becomes so thin
that the whole body suffers comes on
so gradually that anyone with a natur-
al disposition in that direction should
watch the symptoms carefully. Blood-
lessness can be corrected more easily
in the earlier stages than later. It
begins. with a tired feeling that rest
does not overcome, the complexion
becomes pale, slight exertion produce
breathlessness and headaches and
backaches frequently follow. In the
treatment of troubles due to thin blood
no other medicine had such a great
success as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills.
They go right to the root of the trou-
ble, make rich, red blood, thus restor-
ing the weakened system to health
and strength. Mr. R. F. Ashford,
Peterboro, Ont., says: "Four years
Our clothes are the produc-
tions of the best makers.

Successor to W. A. Campbell.,

that it seemed to me I poss

down my const'tu

ed every

I had been
avement added
essary to break
n. 1 had a severe
ever-present i deckle and pains in
the back of the eyes, and at the same
time I was seldom free from severe
neuralgic pains. I was rarely hungry,
and when I was it seemed to create a
morbidness which made my other ills
harder to bear. • Of course I consulted
a doctor, and he told me a rest and
change of air, just the thing I was un-
able in the circumstances to take. I
had a particularly bad spell on the day
my daughter returned from college;
and she insisted that I should take Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills. I was decidedly
skeptical, but she go: some and to
please her I took them. The result—
After the first day 1 was compelled to
admit that I really did feel better.
After the second box I ungrudgingly
admitted that they were doing me
good, and after the sixth box• I felt free
from every ache and pain and in grati-
tude I began to praise the pills to
others. I am feeling as fit as I did
twenty years ago and I owe it to Dr.
Williams' link Pills."
You can get these pills from any
medicine dealer or by mail at 50 cents
a box or six boxes for $2.50 from The
Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Brock-
ville, Ont.
Wednesday afternoon, May 3rd, the
community was sadly surprised to learn
that John Mason, an old and highly es-
teemed resident of Si Lot 26, Con 3,
Morris township, had been called to his
reward, at the good old age of 84 years,
6 months and 17 days. He left his home
to go across a field to where members
of the family were fixing fences and
after chatting said he would walk along
the line toward the Concession road to
see where repairs were necessary. A
half hour later the men following up
the fence found deceased's body cold in
death. Apparently he had climbed
over the fence, about 20 or 30 rods
from where the folk were working, on
to the sideroad, supposed with the in-
tention of getting the mail from the
box at the gate and the little exertion
proved too much for his heart, which
had troubled him for same time and he
passed away without a struggle. A
little hill intervened so that the exact
particulars will never be known by those
who were near by. It was a great
shock to the family, especially Mrs.
Mason, who has attained her 80th y ear.
Mr. Mason was born at Papa, Westray
Isle, one of the Orkney Islands, on
October 16th, 1831, and after following
fishing for a few years came to Canada
when 21 years of age, making his home
in Beverly township, Waterloo County.
He worked on the railroad for a time,
then followed farm laba.r in the winter
and sailed on a boat running from
Toronto to Kingston during the summer.
In 1855 he came Westward to Hullett
township, Huron Co., and on August
18th, 1860, he was married to Miss
Jane Watt, settling on Lot 5, Con. 9,
where they made their home until 1882,
when they moved to Loc 26, Con. 3,
Morris township, where they have con-
tinuously resided. The subject of this
notice vas a kind husband, loving father
and good neighbor. He was a member
of the Presbyterian Church and a
Liberal in politics. In addition to his
widow he is survived by 3 sons, (John,
Wawanosh; William, Hullett, and Alex.,
at home) and 5 daughters, (Mrs. Jas.
M. Martin, Clinton; Mrs, Hugh
Moses, Morris; Mrs. John Hill,
Portage la Prairie; Mrs. Joseph Hogg,
Morris; and Mrs. Hugh McEachern,
Holstein,) all of whom were present at
the funeral, excepting Mrs. Hill. Mr.
and Mrs. Mason celebrated the 55th
anniversary of their mariage last sum-
mer. His health had not been very
vigorous for the past year, but it was
not to be wondered at when his age was
considered. He was an honest, honor-
able man and respected by a wide circle
who sympathize with the bereaved
family.
