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.

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.

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- ham on the 20th inst. Mr. and Mrs. Wnt. ('ave', who re- cently moved into the village from their farm in Uaborne, were surprised on Tuesday evening, when a large number of their Eden friends came trooping in and took possession of their house and prepared to make themselves at horse for a few hours. Mr. John Essery was made Master of ('eremonies, and called upon his (laughter, Miss }tette. to read an ad- dre•s of appreciation and goodwill to the aged couple. Mr. Fred Litxton, Mr. Richard ('oaten and Mrs. F. Lox. ton then presented the couple with a pair of handsome. easy chairs and a beautiful mantle clock. Our Mrs. Caves replied in terve language, expressive of tho kindness shown and Ow long and tend.•r relations of past tyears. Re- fre-shrnents were served and games in• dulged in till or.e o'clock in the thorn• ing. when the gathering broke up by singing the National Anthem. The Citi1••ns of nor little berg will give a glad welcome to Mr. and Mrs. (',Ives and wish them many years of peace and tltiiet in their cozy little home. CENTRALIA afess►•s. C. H.

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.
