Mr. James Jeckell, London Road

By a misplacing of copy our local
last week regarding the death of
Reeyo Bobier's mother in Detroit did
not appear. The lady died the pre-
vious Thursday nt the age of 76 years,
from a paralytic stroke. The greater
part of her life had been spent near
Chatham but she had resided with her
daughter, Mrs Jos. Wells, in Detroit
for the past ten years. The husband
died over 15 years ago. Reeve Bobier
attended the funeral which was held
in Dresden.
Mr. H. E. Keddy, a former Usborne
boy, who is now abuilder and contrac-
tor in Cypress River, Man., writing
from that place on Sept. 21st says:—
"Business in the West has been good
this year and the fall building trate is
opening up tine and promises to be
good until Christmas. Regarding the
crops they have been good in this local-
ity, the wheat averaging 25, the barley
35 and oats about 50. Threshing is
about half done and 'nen here are
scarce. In closing I may say we eager-
ly look for the Advocate from week
to week and we feel we could not do
without it."
On Wednesday afternoon of last
week at the home of the bride's par-
ents, Spading avenue, Toronto. the
marriage took place of Miss Pansy
Julia Mason, B. A., youngest daugh-
ter of Dr. and Mrs. Wallace Mason, to
Mr. Samuel Lorne Fear, eldest son of
the Rev. and Mrs. E. R. Fear of Exe-
ter. The officiating clergymen were
the groom's father and the Rev. Chan-
cellor Burwash of Victoria College.
The bride, who was given away by
her father, wore her graduating dress,
a Princess gown of white silk mull
over taffeta and veil with lilies of the
valley, and carried a sheaf of bride
roses. Miss Lillian Mason of Winni-
peg, who attended the bride, wore
white silk with touches of pink, and
carried bridestnaid roses. Mr. J. P.

wanda, N.Y., and the wedding hymn,

held for the relatives and intimate
friends of the bride and groom. Mr.
and Mrs. S. L. Fear left shortly after
for their future home near Detroit, the
bride travelling in a dark blue tailored
costume.

A quiet wedding took place at 8:30
o'clock Thursday morning. Sept. 21th,
at the home of Mrs. Stephen hicks,
Exeter, when her daughter, Miss Eva.
was married to Mr. Harold Peters of
Attwood. Only the immediate rela-
tives of the bride were present at the
ceremony which was performed by
Rev. A. I1. Going, pastor of the James
st. Methodist church. Bride and
groom were unattended. The bride
was dressed in cream silk, and her
travelling dress was of blue. After a
wedding breakfast they took the north
bound train for Attwood, where the
groom owns
a fine farm and where
ce
they will in future reside. Best wish•
es are extended to them.
Mrs Russel Manning Dead.
The death occurred in Clinton on
Monday of last week of Grace A. Boles,
wife of Russell Manning, manager of
the Sterling Bank at Dungannon, and
formerly a resident of Exeter. The
New Era says in part: "For a consid-
erable time she has suffered from tub.
ereular trouble, and went to London
for treatment, returning to Clinton
abort five months ago to the home of
her mother, where she had every pos•
e ihle attention and the care of a train-
ed nurse continuously, but it was real-
ized that little could be done for her,
and she accepted the inevitable with
the same Christian confidence and re-
signation that had characterized her
life. In addition to her bereaved hus-
band. and one son, she leaves two
brothers. a sister, and her mother,
N icks' Forecasts For October.
.'t Regular Sun in Period beginning
um September, will extend at least two
days in October, during which days
storm areas will be over sections to-
ward the Atlantic, and sharp anti -
storm conditions—that is, rising barn -
meter, northerly winds and change to
colder will be advancing front west to
east behind the atoms. it is quite
probable that early snow squalls may
come with the northern and western
tangent.% of these storms. A reaction
ary storm period is central on the lth.
5th and lit b. The chance. are that dis-
agreeable, autumnal weather will con-
tinue into this period from the preced-
ing period, with an increase of cloudi•
nes., fall of the barometer and quick•
ened rain and snow storms on and
touching the 5th. The Moon is at ex-
treme south declination at this time,
tl.o at flet quarter. hence winds will
.turally flow from northerly three -
ns in most p•arfp, adding bleakness
and autumnal chill to the weather.
Mre. Itichard Davis, Sr.. is confined
to her room with a severe cold. We
hope to hear of her speedy recovery.
The Trivitt Memorial church Sun•
day school service in future will be

The trophy of silverware won by NV.
W. Taman's rink of bowlers at Credi-
ton has been an object of attraction
and much favorable comment at the
skip's tailor shop this week, and the
winners feel justly proud,
Mr. Willis Powell treated the family
of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Taylor to an ex-
cellent phonographic concert on Fri-
day evening. The instrument was
placed on the lawn and the renditions
were much enjoyed by their neighbor;
and friends.
Chief Bissett is chuckling just now
over the week's work he and a number
of experts put in at the town gasoline
engine without succeeding in making
it do the work required. As a last re-
sort the chief changed the quality of
gasoline and he reports that it has run
satisfactorily ever since.
The drought of the past month was
broken on Monday and we were treat-
ed to a heavy rain. not nearly enough,
however. to be of any practical benefit
to the farmers, the land being still too
hard for plowing. The rain was tol-
lowed by a cold snap ani ageneral
hustle was made Monday night and
Tuesday for wraps and overcoats.
The W. M. S. of James st. church
gave a delightful evening at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. John Pedlar Monday.

lent ten served and a choice program
rendered. Among the selections were
the male quartette, Messrs. Geo. Snell
S. Rowe, %V. Ford, H. Shapton; vocal
solo, Miss Nina Carling; instrumental
duets, Misses Louise Carling and May
Wood, Flossa Sweet and May Wood,
Ida Rowe and Gladys Bissett; readings
by Mrs. C. Snell, sr., and Miss Bessie
Hartnoll.
The Sunday school Rally of the
James St. church proved a great suc-
cess on Sunday. The morning service
which the children attended in mass
was addressed by Rev. Walter Mill -
son of Kingsville, an Usborne Old Boy,
while the afternoon service also held
in the body of the church was address-
ed by Mr. Millson, Mr. Weidenham-
mer, principal of the Exeter School,
and Mr. Frayne, the superintendant.
Mr. Stinson also preached in the even-
ing to the older people on behalf of the
children and the strangers. The
speaker made it very plain to all that
they are responsible for the careful
training of the children and the wel-
coming of the strangers to the church.
The Late Mrs. Tait.
The remains of the late Mrs. Sinclair
Tait, of whom we made mention last
week a• having died in Detroit on
Sept. 23 after a short illness and while
on a visit to her daughter Mrs. Lane•
mie, were brought here on Thursday
evening and conveyed to the residence
of Mr. E. Christie, from where the
funeral took place to the Exeter ceme-
tery on Saturday afternoon and was
largely attended. Deceased was aged
78 years, 2 months and 3 days. Her
maiden name was Susan Marriott.
She was born in Bershwick, Yorkshire,
Eng., and came to this country with
her first husband, Mr. Wm. Carling. a
cousin of the late Isaac Carling, fifty-
seven years ago. living a short time in
New York and London before settling
in Exeter. From the first marriage
three children survive, Mrs. E. Chris-
tie of Exeter, Mrs. Ed. iloward of Lon-
don and Mr. Wm. Carling of St. Paul,
Minn. After the demise of Mr. Car-
ling she tnarried the late Sinclair Tait,
and it son and daughter of this union
survive, David S. Tait of St. I'nul and
Mrs. Launncie of Detroit. During the
last number of years she resided with
Mrs. Christie. Of a kind and loving
disposition she was beloved by her re-
latives and friends and highly esteem-
ed by all who knew her. Nothing but
the kindest of memories remain of her
uniformly kind and sympathetic life.

tended the funeral were, Mr. Win.
