For the past two weeks, Thomas Russell and his daughter, Mrs. John , Haley, both of Saginaw, Mich., have been visiting relatives and friends and renewing old associations Mr. Russell came to Morris township about 40 years ago and farmed until 5 years ago when: he removed to the American city. Mrs. Russell died since he left Morris. Al- I though 81 years of age the old gentle- man is ati bright as a dollar and can get' about as lively as many a person 20 years his junior. At 7.30 o'clock Monday evening, Aug- ust -24th, the spirit of an old and highly I esteemed resident was summoned in ' the person of Allan Ramsay. He was born in Lachute, Quebec, and after a sojourn in Glengarry county for a time he came to the Province of Ontario when 25 years of age. As a millwright and an excellent mechanic, he was em- ployed in vaEous places, arriving in Morris township in 1860 when he bought the 100 acre farm upon which he lived and died, North half Lot 25 Con. 2, Morris, from David Hart, an acre or so being cleared at the time. Two years later he was married to Jane Marks, of Wilmont township, Waterloo county, and they lived on the farm continuously until called away to the Better Home. Mrs. Ramsay passed away February 18th, 1898. By industry, economy and thrift the farm was cleared, comfort- able buildings replaced the ones of pioneer days and younger hands came to their help in eons and daughters. The children are, David, on the home- stead; Samuel, at Wiarten; Allan, of Tara; Mrs. John Pugh, Mitchell; Mrs, Jas. Pugh, Delisle, Sask.; Mrs. J. Eamer, Elgin, Man., and Mrs. Frank Wood, of Brandon, Man. Although Mr. Ramsay was blind for the past six years he enjoyed comparative good health the most of the time and was able tcebe out of bed a few days before his demise. Old age was the cause of death, the end coming peacefully. His age was 84 years, 1 month and 10 days. The subject of this notice was a Liberal in politics, a Presbyterian in religion and lived a quiet life, declining public office. He was a great reader. Mr. Ramsay was the last of his gener- ation and died enjoying the respect of all who 'knew him. After a. life of 54 years in Morris few of those who were his neighbors and associates are left to tell the story of the hardships and toils of those pioneer days. None of the late Mr. Ramsay's brothers. or sisters are alive. Mrs. John Pugh and the sons were home for the funeral, which took place Wednesday afternoon, August 20th, to Bluevale cemetery. Rey. Mr. Tate. deceased's pastor, spoke com- fortng words at the home and took the service at the graveside. Pall- bearers were the three sons, and Jno. Pugh, Jno. Cochrane and Duncan'Orimp- bell. JADIEST()Wic. . • • issinvAr.,11C. I present. The final event of the day t. ox o Boys' RBBNIoN —The Old Boys' took place after supper when Misevale ,Reutfon of thievale school on Saturday,. Sept. 5, was favored with the only fine day in the we. -k of rainy weather. The afternoon was ideal and the bright, mild sunlight, the :mil -Rated crowds and the gay clec:ratiens of llags, pennants, bunting and evergreens gave the old school in its farewell a more festive as- pect then netlieps it bad ever known Miss Annie Hamilton, who has been staying with her cousin, Mrs. D. Mc- Donald, returned to her home at Shakespeare this week. Last week George Johnston left fox. Pelee Island where he is instructing the young idea in educational affairs wit- tuccess. Tuesday of last week Miss Fern Eckmier commenced her duties as teacher of the Howick and Grey Bound- ary school. She will fill the bill to a nicety. Ralph Shaw, son of Anson and Mrs. Shaw, who was home for a holiday, left last Friday for Irvine, Alta., where h has a good position as teacher. We wish him success. Miss Beatrice Harris, of Brussels, commenced her engagement as teacher in the Bryans school. There has been a long line of good teachers in this school and we expect Miss Harris will maintain the past record. We wish her well. TO RN before. 1 .sicle the school was exhibited a collection of photographs of former teachers and pupils which „revived old memoriea to mane who viewed them ' during the afternoon. On the grounds there was a conetant succession of in- teresting event. Visitees arriving by train on Saturday were met by auto- mobile and the Reception Committee wearing badges of school colors, white and blue, received the ,guests in the reception tent at the entrance to the grounds where a large number registered in the visirtors' book, which makes an excellent memento of tile occasion. The first event of the afternoon was a base pall match betwe,n theold boys and the single men in which the former won by a score of 9 8, in five innings. The line-up of the old boys was as follows:— Pitcher, Ed. Coultes; back stop, Billy Haney; ist base, Charlie Elliott; 2nd base, 13ob Musgrove; 3rd base, Geordie McDonald; right field. Jack 'Musgrove; left, Harry Diamond; Centre, Joe Breckenridge; short stop, Jack SteWart. Amy Musgrove was umpire, Following the baseball match an interesting program was given on a platform erected under the school windows. Piper McDonald provided music for the afternoon and his daughter, Miss Vera McDonald delighted the audience by her graceful Scotch dances. Rev. D. B.Thompson was chairman and among the numbers on the program were an historical sketch of Bluevale school read by Mr. Robt. Black, and addresses by three former teachers, A. H. Musgrove, M.L.A., Mr. A. MacEwen Township Clerk of Morris, and A. L. Posliff, Principal of Wingham Public School. Mies Barbara Thynne of Palmerston who was alio a teacher here, sang an expressive solo, "Cam' ye by Athol", and letters were read by Miss Cora M. Messer from two other ex -teachers who were unable to be present, Mr. Thos. Farrow Ex -M. P., of Collingwood and Inspector, E. W. Bruce of Toronto. These letters were very interesting, recalling the people and incidents of the past in connection with the school. Other numbers on the program were an address by Rev. C. Tate; a solo, "School Days" by Miss Carrie Diamond; a duet' "Hark to the Mandolin" by Misses Aitcheson and Duff, and a reading, "A Modern Ser- mon" by Miss M. Duff. At the close of the program an agreeable little ceremony took place in the presentation to the School Trustees by the Executive of the Literary Society of two beautiful pictures, one a copley print of "The Plough Horse" by Carleton Wiggins, the original of which hangs in the 'Lotos Club, New York; the other, a colored reproduction.of "The Goatherds', by the great French artist, Corot. Mr. W. H. Haney and Mr.A. L. Posliff spoke on behalf of the Society and Miss Alice Paul and Mrs. W. S. Masters unveiled the pictures. Mr. George McDonald accepted them on behalf of the ratepayers. The afternoon's sports were in emerge of A. MacEwen, Sport- ing Director; R. Musgrove, Judge.; and George McDonald, Convenor of Athletic Committee. The prize winners were as follows: - School girls' peanut race, Rettia Turvey; sack race (boys under ten), King McDonald; sack race (boys free-for-all), Harvey Robinson; young ladies' thread and needle. race, Miss Lillian McCall; married ladies' nail driving contest, Mrs. J. W. King; put- ting the shot, Stewart McNaughton. The Tug-of-war between Morris and Turnberry proved to be very exciting. To the martial strains of the bagpipes, the two teams mailehed around the grounds before taking their places. It was a close 'struggle but Turnberry won by a hair. Craik Cleghorn was captain of the victorious team and Gordon Hall of their opponents. One of the most striking events of the clay took place just before supper when a parade was formed to march from the old school grounds co the new grounds. north of the Methodist church, for the purpose of planting a tree in honor of the old boys and girls of the school. The.tree, gaily decorated with flags and streamers was borne by the school children on a litter sand the boys and girls gave the school yell' as they passed along the street. At the bead of the procession were two boys c,n ponies, Jack McMichael arid Cameron McDonald. Then followed the ex - teachers and the receptir n committee is three autemobiles precedad by the piper. Other sections of the parade were the echool trustees, the Women's Institute, the Literary Society and the Old Boys and Girls, At the new sehool grounds the tree was ably planted by A. H. Musgrove, M.L.A., assisted by the other ex -teachers mid after looking over the new school which presents a very net and pleasing appearance, the crowd returned to the old school where refreshments were served and a pleasant time was spent by old friends together. The social spirit of the a2ternoon was its greatest pleasure to many of those Minutes of Council meeting held in Bluevale, Monday, August 31st. Mem- bers all present, Reeve in the chair.

CASTOR IA For Infants and Children, the Kind You Have Always Bought Dears the 4;1gnature of 417‘.7-127.., Ps LIVE STOOLV MARKETS Toronto, Sept 7—In addition to a re- turn to nine -cent steers the market this morning resumed a briskness which has been lacking for some time All sorts and conditions found buyer, more or less readily, and on account of a comparatively light run quotations increased from 10 to 15 cents Quality alone was not responsible for the in- crease, but in eases might have had a little to do with it. Several dealers had the market stronger by a quarter, but it was here that quality came in. To give an instance, there was a den in fat cows at $7.40, but the stuff was exceptional, and any alteration in prices could not be based on this. The trade in sheep, lambs and calves was steady to firm, but hogs suffered a decline of 25 cents on a moderate run. The receipts for the morning were: 99 cars, with 1,703 cattle, 316 calves, 1,936 hogs and 851 sheep and lambs.
