One of the pioneer settlers of the 1st line of Morris township, passed to his reward Wednesday morning of last week, in the person of Joseph Smillie. He was in his 82nd year and is survived by his wife, 4 sons, (Robert and Stewart, of Nelson, B. C., and Walter and William at home) and daughter (Miss Mary at home).

An old and highly esteemed former resident of the 6th line, Morris, died in Saginaw, Mich., on Friday, October 22nd, in the person of Thos. Russell, at the age of 82 years and 2 months.

Messrs Bainton Bros. received a car- load of sheepskin, and have started up their tannery for the winter, having quite a force engaged at wool -pulling. The Flax Company have been very successful in getting all their flax lifted before the snow falls, and as soon as they get the mill rigged up they will engage a large gang at the scutching operations • Sunday anniversary services were preached in St. Andrew's Church by Rev„ Prof. Davidson of Knox College. He gave two splendid orations, which were listened to with great attention by the large congregations. At the evening service the church was packed on account of the courtesy of the Meth- odists closing their church. The music was well rendered by the,^hoir, assist- ed by Miss Ada McClinton of Goderich who sang a solorat both services. The church was beautifully decorated with flowers, and the collections were large. Capt. R. R. Sloan of the 38rd Regi- ment, London, spent a few days of the past week with his parents here, and superintended the drawing of 800 bar- rels of winter apples from his Goderich fruit orchard to Goderich for shipment, he having sold them to Mr. Cantelon of Clinton.

At an informal meeting of the mem- ber of Kinloss Township Council Mon- day evening it was decided that a grant of $1,500 should be made to the Red Cross and Patriotic Funds. The grant will not be actually made until the next regular meeting of the Council, but there seems little doubt but that it will go through without opposition A very melancholy and fatal accident occurred in Clinton, Thursday, forenoon. As the eleven o'clock train was back- ing up to the station, it struck Mr. Arthur Forbes as he was crossing the track, and killed him instantly. Mr. Forbes was very deaf and short-sighted and it is supposed he failed to hear or see the train. The sincere sympathy of many friends will be extended to Mts. Forbes and family. The Dungannon Evaporator Com- pany's plant was burned down at about 6 o'clock Friday night. The buildings destroyed were valued at about $1,000, but the stock was worth considerably more. The plant has been running full time and had just closed down for the night and the hands had left. The night-watchman was on his way to the premises when he noticed the blaze. The fire may have originated in the bleaching room. John Weighter, a retired German farmer, wandered away from his home, in Walkerton, on Thursday forenoon and was without food and shelter for almost two days. He was found early on Sunday morning under a railway bridge near Hanover without a hat and with only one shoe, and was in the act of picking grass to cover himself. Mr. Weighter is a man of means and moved into town a few years ago, building himself a fine residence, but of late his mind has been wandering. Jack Black, five-year-old son of Mr, Chas. Black, of Goderich, while making a bonfire of leaves with other boys in a neighbor's yard on Saturday last, met with a serious mishap which nearly cost the little fellow his life. One of the boys got some coal oil and started throwing it around, with the result that Jack was suddenly a mass of flames. His screams attracted the attention of the neighbors, who ex- tinguished the flames, but not before his clothing had been burned from his waist down William Proudfoot jr., who has ob- tained a commission as .Lieutenant in the 33rd Battalion, was home at Gode- rich last Friday night saying good-bye, having come from London, where he has been taking his officer's course. The occasion was taken by the Town Council, of which he is the youngest member. to tender him a banquet and • to present him with a purse.

Last week he was tined by a Kincardine magistrate, $400 for a similar offense, making a total of nearly 31,300, count- ing costs.
