Death of Joseph Snell.
The news of the death of Mr. Joseph
Snell, which was circulated on Satur-
day night last, was received with keen
regret by his many friends in town
and surrounding country, notwith-
standing the fact that his demise was
not in the least unexpected. For over
three months deceased has been con-
fined to his home, and the greater part
of that time to bis bed, from that much
dreaded disease called pernicious ante-
tuia, from which very few ever recover.
THE LATE JOSEPH SNBLL
The disease took its characteristic
course, one day the patient showing.
signs of improvement. while in the
next he was not so well; bat the rav-
ages of the disease were gradually per-
fortuing'theirdeadly nlission,and, laps-
ing into a state of unconsoiousness
Saturday about nine o'clock in the
evening, the curtain was rung down
upon his kindly life,
Mr. Snell was a native of Exeter,
having been born hete in the year 1854,
and, if he had Lived into the following
day (Sunday) would have been W years
of age. At the age of ten he, with his
parents, settled near Dashwood, where
they located on a bush farm. 'these
surroundings he shared with his par-
ents, at the same time taking advant-
age of the school privileges theft af-
forded. At the age of seventeen he
had qualified himself fora teacher, and
followed the profession for sixteen
years, teaching the greater part of the
time one and one-quarter miles north
of Dashwood.
At the age of twenty-five he married
Miss Christina Sinton,, and the union
was blessed with two children, Oscar
W. and Miss Florence.
Twenty years ago be embarked in
the private banking business, opening
up an office at Dashwood. By his up-
right dealings and excellent business
principles the utmost success attended
his efforts and venture. Five years
ago he disposed of his banking inter-
ests in that place to the Sovereign
Bank, which bank mule him manager
of the Dashwood'and Zurich branches.
Recognizing his abilities in this capac-
ity the officials of the Bank appointed
hint to the management of the Exeter
and Crediton branches. It was at this
time he moved with his family to Exe-
ter, which was about three years ago.
In January last this branch of the
Sovereign Bank was taken over by the
Bank of Commerce and at that time
Mr. Snell was appointed its manager,
which position he held up to the time
of his demise.
The deceased was also identified
with the Board of Directors of the
Exeter Canning Factory. of which he
was their esteemed President.
The subject of this sketch was one
of the best known and also one of the
most highly respected men of the com-
munity. in everything to which lie
put his hand he applied the qualities
of thoroughness anti integrity, which
were cardinal principles of his char-
acter. Although cut off at a conipara-
tively early age. he bas left behind
him a clean record. As it banker he
well sustained the reputation of his
hank for probity and prudence, and as
a Christian he was sincere and true
to its teachings.
In his death Exeter has lost a citizen
whose memory all classes will preserve;
the bank has lost an ofltcer, whose
place it will not readily supply; and
those who had the privilege of know-
ing him have lost a friend, whose un-
failing patience and courtesy endeared
hint above ordinary .nen. In his do-
mestic life be was particularly lovable
and generous in all his impulses. Be-
sides the eorrowing wife he is survived
by one son. O. W., of Boston, and one
daughter. Mies Florence, at horse;
besides three brothers and three sisters
— William and John, of Dashwood;
Charles, Of Cavalier. North Dakota;
Mre. Neel), Mre. D. Tiernan and .Diss
Letitia Snell, of Dashwood.
The family, and especially his mourn-
ing widow, have the sytnpathy of a
host of friends in this period of their
trial. By them he will be peculiarly
missed and lamented, and for them
our kindest sympathy is extended.
The floral tributes of affection and
esteem for the deceased laid upon and
surrounding the casket were many
and of great beauty.
The deceased was a valued member
of the Masonic Order and also of the
independent Order of Foresters, the
former of which conducted the fun-
eral. which took place on Tuesday
afternoon to the Exeter cemetery.
Upwards of seventy-five of the hreth-
ten were in line and marched in the
funeral procession. The ceremony of
the Methodist Church, of which he
WAS a member, was condtieted by Rev.
A. 11. Going. while the Masonic rite
WAR conducted 1.y Rt. Wor. Bro. I.. H.

held.

men of the township passed to the
Great Beyond. We refer to the death
of James Ballantyne at the age of 62
years. Deceased had been ill for some
months of Bright's disease, during
which time ho had been to a large ex-
tent confined to the house, although
at tithes he was able to be out around.
On occasions he suffered extreme pain,
and again he rested in comparative
ease. Born in Scotland lie cause to
Canada when quite young. He com-
menced farming on the Boundary
where Mr. Wm. Stewart now resides,
but later moved to his present farm on
the Themes Road, As a farmer he
was an eminent success and accumu-
lated considerable of this world's goods,
as a than he was trustworthy and
honest to a high degree, and as a citi-
zen he took an active pat t in the gov-
ernment of his township and the wel-
fare of the community. He was ass-
essor for several years and later took
a seat as councillor. which he occupied
with credit and honor, until two
years ago when he resigned. For
26 years in succession he was a dir-
ector of the Stephen & Usborne (now
Exeter) Agricultural Society and at
the time of his death was first vice-
president. He was president in 1887-
88-89. In politics he was a Liberal
and in religion a Presbyterian. He
was a member of Farquhar Lodge In-
dependent Order of Foresters. He
married Miss Elizabeth Gardiner, who
survives him, together with four sons,
James on the boundary, William,
Thomas and John at home, and three
daughters, Mrs. Hamilton of Hibbert,

eral took place Monday afternoon the
