One of the cleverest and most dar-
ing robberies ever reported in the
county of Essex was committed last
Saturday on the M.C.R.R, train be-
tween Tilbury and Fletcher. Mr. P.

drafts for the branch recently opened
at Fletcher. Shortly after the train
left Tilbury two well-dressed men,

one of them stopped, and without any
words of introduction, said he had a
parcel which he would like McArthur
to hand to the station agent at Flet-
cher. McArthur paid rio attention
to the stranger at first., but when he
addressed hint the second brae he
arose to take the parcel. Few words
wore exchanged, when McArthur re-
sumed his seat, thinking nothing fur•
er of the incident. When Fletcher
was reached, McArthur left the train.
taking with hint what be supposed
was his own yellse, containing this

he discovered that the grip was one
which had been substituted for his
own. Tho branch here has received

bank will not be the loser, as it ie in-
sured in the Lloyd's against such loss-

Word was received here last week
of the death by drowning of Lorne
White, of Alaska. The late Mr.
White was married two years ago to
Mies Maria Pickard' of London, form-
erly of Exeter, who with her little
son survives him.
Mr. Sam'l Kellaway, of Killarney,
Man.. and a former resident of Exe-
ter, has sent us several photos of
scenes around that northwestern
town, also a souvenir booklet. entit-
led "Killarney Illustrated." The book
let is nicely gotten up and contains
photos of prominent men, business
places and residences, besides adver-
tisements of the different stores.
Exeter and surrounding country
was favored with an eight inch fall of
snow Sunday night and on Monday
the ground and housetops were
completely covered with the beautiful
The fall was sufficient to make excel-
lent sleighing and those who were
fortunate enough to have their win-
ter vehicles in readiness took advan-
tage of the good sleighing.
Clerk. Joseph Senior has searched
diligently for some time for the min-
utes and by-laws of the Exeter Coun-
cil from the time of the incorporation
up to the time he took office. The
hooks were in the hands of Mr. Geo.
H. Bissett, the former clerk and now
residing in the Northwest, but Mr.
Bissett failed to turn them ever when
he resigned his ofllce. The hooka are
invaluable to the town and if they
have been destroyed, cannot be re-
placed. When the gentleman who
lives in the home vacated by Mr. His-
sett's family, moved in, he found sev-
eral books, but thinking them of no
value, burred them, add it is thought
they were the much wanted books.
The removal ot ladies hate in nearly
every place of public entertainment
has become a custom and the removal
of hats at. a public worship meeting
would meet with general approval.
White the ladies desire an opportunity
nt showing off their latest styles of
millinery and usually do so at church
service. still a vote of thanks would
be tendered them if they would re-
move their headgear during service.
Some of the styles are pretty and are
also becoming, hut to thoroughly en-
joy a speaker, it is necessary to be
able to keep your eyes on him, with-
out trying to assume several positions
at the one time in order to get a gond
view behind a profusion of artificial
roses and drapery.
Mr, Geo. Powell was in Wroxeter
last week attending the funeral of his
sister, the late Mrs. James Paulin, of
that place. Mrs. Paulin was horn in
Harlington 70 years ago and at the
age of 7 moved with her parents to
Woodstock. She spent 2) years of
her life there when she was married
to Mr. Paulin and moved to tieborne
where they settled on a farm on the
8th concession, the Winchelsea school
being nn a part of the original farm.
Mr. and Mrs Paulin overcame the
hardships of life anti had it well culti-
vated farm. After conducting the
farm for several years, Mr. Paulin
rented his property and moved to
Woodstock where he went into the
foundry business, and in 1870 sold out
there and went to Wroxeter, where
he and his wife continued to live. The
deceased is survived by five eons and
two daughters. Many of the older
residents of Winchelsea will remem-
ber Mr. and Mrs. Paulin. The former
at one time was a member of the Us -
borne Council.
