DEATH OF WILLIAM GIt IGG
We have once more to chronicle the
passing into the great beyond of one of
ou • oldest residents, whose face for more
than half a century hal. been familiar
to our town. Mr. Grigg was born July
29th, 1620, In Launceston, a quaint old
town in Cornwall, England. Here he
spent seven years in apprenticeship,and
three years of further- improvement to
the trade of a tailor, and at the age
of 21, as a finished tradesman occur -
ti a position with a leading house in
London. England. On Sunday morning
Ju'y 281h, 1944, he was married to
Katherine Ilooper of Plymouth, who for
sixty-three yeara was the partner of his
life, and who predeceased him March
8th, 1907. in the eprLng of 1855 they
carte to Exeter. Canada, where the re-
mainder of their lives were spent. He
leavea to mourn his loss six sons and
one daughter. Mr. Grigg was an earnest
Crristlan. His words have been the
means of cheering and strengthening
many souls. and he gave to all who
knew hint wo-de, thbughts and ideate
of the beet. He never feared doubt in
:c1.3 reveres:cc for truth and he always
to eked from earth onward to the Immor-
tal Life. His remains were laid to rest
on afonday last in the Eteter cemetery,
the Rer. D. W. Collins of the Trivitt Me-
morial Church officiating.

Last Sunday morning Quarterly
Meeting wag held in the Methodist
Church. when the pastor was assisted
by the Rev. L. W. Wichett of London,
who preached it most excellent son•
anon. There was a fair attendance,
especially when we consider the state
of the weather. The sermon in the
evening by the sante rev. gentleman
was n toaster piece and many wondered
why n ratan of his mental calibre
should he superannuated, but his hear-
ing is defective, which disqualifies hire
for pastoral wet k. The business meet•
ing at the parsonage on Tuesday even.
ing was largely attended and finances
were found in good shape. Mr. John
Essery, the recording stett•ard, was
appointed delegate to the district
meeting. which is to be held at Wood-

Mr. and Mrs. Wnt. ('ave', who re-

on Tuesday evening, when a large

themselves at horse for a few hours.
Mr. John Essery was made Master of

dre•s of appreciation and goodwill to
the aged couple. Mr. Fred Litxton,
Mr. Richard ('oaten and Mrs. F. Lox.

replied in terve language, expressive of

BURNED TO DEATII.
A very sad accident happened about
three o'clock Saturday afternoon last, at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Hodgins,
Concession 8, Stephen, when their little
son, Harvey Raymond, was burned to
death. Tee parents had gone to the barn
only a eholt time before, where they
were engaged fanning grain, leaving the
t vo little sons, aged 13 n mths and
three years, in the house. On returning
to tho house and opening the door the
mother was horrified to find the house
full of smoke- She immediately called
the husband and together they entered
the building, only to find that by some
means the younger son had been burned
to death, while the other little fellow
was none the worse. How it occurred
is a mystery, but it is supposed Ole
clothes had caught fire In some way, as
the parte of the body covered by the
clothes were the most severely burned,
the hands, face and hair being only
lightly touched by the flames. The
shock to the parents was very severe and
they have the sympathy of the entire
community. The remains were interred
in the Fairfield cemetery on Monday.
Nine. Egan went to London Monday
owing to the Illness of her sister, Mrs.
S. A. atreal' um.
