Death removed .one of Seaforth's old- estand most respected residents on Sunday, June 6th, when Mre. Henry Town passed away. Mre, Town suffer- ed a severe attack of paralysis the Sunday previous, which was followed on Monday by a second stroke, and she gradually sank until the and came on Sunday. Mrs. Town was born in Lon- don, England, 72 years ago and spent her early married life there, coming to this country, with her husband, 43 years ago. Poi a short time they resided in Woodstock, before coming to Seaforth. where for over 30 years they have been well-known and greatly respected resi- dents. She was of a bright amiable disposition and her death will be a distinct loss to her many friends and neighbors, to whom she was endeared by her cheery council and kindly deeds, and especially will her loss be felt by her aged partner in life and her family to whom she was so deeply attached. She is survived by her husband and a family of five sons and one daughter: Thomas, of South Bend, Indiana; George, of Wroxeter; William, of Hamilton; Lieut. Percy, of Clinton; Sidney, of Chicago, and Mrs. Bertram, of New York, to whom the sincerest sympathy is axtended in their bereave- ment. MINISTERS AND THE AUTO. A despatch from St. Marys where the Methodist Conference was held, to a city paper read as follows: -Pioneer preachers in Upper Canada covered their extensive circuits on horseback. With building of roads came the two - wheeled cart, and then the top buggy, which for 30 years has been the stand- ard vehicle of the country minister. To -day the automobile is entering the field. About ten ministers of London Methodist Conference own motor cars. Rev. E. G. Powell travels over Huron County as agent of the Temperance League, and Rev. John Morrison, of Sarnia, is engaged in lecture work, but the remainder use their cars in the or- dinary way in place of horse and buggy. Efficiency considered, they find it economy to do so. Among those whom the high cost of oats does not affect are Rev. Frank Reycraft, of Springfield; Rev. J. 13. Osterhout, of Thedford; Rev. Joseph Cook, Grand Bend; Rev. Leonard Bart- lett, Belmont; Dr. W. L. Rutledge, Clinton; and Rev. W. R. Vance, of Merlin. Rev. F. Louis Barber, who moves from Listowel, will be looking for a garage around the parsonage of Colborne street, London. Only those charges receiving aid from the sustentation fund get any horse feed allowance, which might be applied to gasoline, so conference "should worry." OVER THE HILLS [New York Sun.] Ofte when the world and I were young- er Oh, we are old, so old today, I longedeto go over the great hills yon- dInto the world, so far away. When the years came I met them glad - Oh, but they seemed so long to stay, I hoped that each over the hills would lead me Into the world, so far away. Care they brought me and bitter sor- row, Long grew the nights, and long the day. But I dreamed of the path the great hill over, Into the world and far away. "Soon thou shalt seek it," my heart said to me, "Bide thy time till the happy day; Thou shalt go wandering the great hills over, Into the world and far away." Ah, but still I bide in the valley, Darker the nights and longer the day And I never shall pass the great hills over, Into the world so far away. Many a dream had I of its beauty, The great, fair world, so far away, And many a song I wove about it, I have forgotten them ail to -day. The Grampian, with more than 1.500 troops from Winnipeg, Brandon, British Columbia and other points, arrived safely at an English port.. Essex County Council decided to con- tinue its $500 monthly grant to the Canadian Patriotic Fund. HOMESEEKERS EXCURSIONS.

LIVE STOCK 1)LUUKETS Toronto, June 14 -Union Stock Yards -120 cars, with 1,5u0 cattle, 133 calves, 151 hogs, 133 sheep and lambs The market was good and steady to strong for handy, weight butcher cattle, but trade generally slow and inclined to drag on the heavier stuff. Fat cows were also a little on the easier side. Choice loads of butcher steers sold steady to firm from $8.25 to $8.3d, and several lots at $8.40 to $8 45. But there were a good many loads of medium quality selling around $7.75, and at the close still a good few cattle left over. Stocker trade was again quiet. Good veal calves were firm, extra choice up to $10.50. Spring lambs steady to firm at 11}zc to 12.;c by the pound. Heavy sheen very dull and not want- ed. hogs were quoted lower by the pack- ers at $9 50 off cars, but prices were very irregular, ranging all the way from $11.50 to :1;9.90. The run was very light, scarcely enough to make a market.
