Messrs. David Richards and John

had an unpleasant experience on Mon-
day. When driving along the 2nd
concession of Usborne in front of the
.farms of Messrs. James Frayne and
Thoneae, Bissett, the horses 'became
frightened and ran away throwing the
occupants violently to tbe ground,

to town where the horses Lima been
caught after distributing parts of the
wagon along the way. The team ip

We are not given to boasting but
we are proud of the farmer boys of
this vicinity, They are, with rare ex-
ceptions, a healthy, intelligent and

like taking our hat clear off when we
meet them upon our areas, and no

Too many boys leave the farm where
they would have made substantial and

fairly drive their boys away.' There
is no excuse for this. The farmer boy

Rev, Going Builds a Canoe. ,
We had occasion on Monday 'after-,
noonto. walk over eo the parsonage
where lives Rev. A. H. Going, pastor
of the James street Methodist church,
and we found him in his holiday
clothes out working in the garden.
On passing the stable door we noticed
inside a. beautiful canoe; of larger than
usual dimensions; beautifully made,
handsomely finished and ready for the,
water. , On enquiry we found that Ma.
Going had made it himself in his spare
hours during the past winter. The re-
sult shows the 1138ker is no tnean me-
chanic and is posbessed of much more
than the ordinary ability with A set of
tools. The canoe is 10 feet, 3 inches
long; and 2 feet 10 iticbee wide at the
centre; is made of * inch basswood
with finishinge of oak. It. weighs
about 50 lbs. The wood in covered on
the outside with canvas, while the
whole is painted and varnished in
pleasing colors. It io 8o evenly balanc-
ed, that it will rest perfectly on an ineh ,
.board. The material foivits manufac-
ture was all purchased in Exeter and
the i'l inch basswood partieubirly re-

furnished it. ° About $20 covers the

"How old are you John?" He replied,
am half as old as my father. He is
two years older than my mother. 'My

young man replied that the five child-

Death of Mrs. Elixaboth Bryant. •
The following taken from a Forest
paper refers to a former Exeter lady:
"Elizabeth McMahen relict of the late
Richard Bryant, died her home in
Forest, on Tuesday, May 15. She was
born in London Tp., Middlesex 00.,
Sept. 8, 1834. Her father. Win. Mc-
Mahen; was one of London's first sett-
lers—coming to London from Armagh:
county, Ireland, in 1818. London was
then known, as The Forks, and at that
time consisted of a few log.honses. She
was married to Richard Bryant Sept.
8, 1858, and lived for yeaes in McGilliv-
ray township and Exeter, where her
husband ran a grist mill for years; then
moved to Luca n where Mr. Bryant
died. Mrs. Bryant came to Fewest 14
years ago and has resided here since.
,She had two paralytic strokes, the last
one eight years ago, when she lost
bower of her speech and left her as
helpless as a child. Her surviving
children are: Mrs. W. Cunningham,
Denfield; Capt. W. Bryant, Thedford;
R. Brant, Petrolea; Dr, A. E. Bryant,
.State Veterinary Surgeon, oe Wiscon-
sin, and Miss Anne at home, who has
had the constant charge of the home
and mother. She has also eight broth-
ers and sisters living—Jas. McMahen
and Mrs. McWhinney of Lucane 'sane
McMahen, Michigan; John and Mat-
thew McMaheh, Red Deer, Alberta:
Adam L MeMithea, of McMahen &
Granger; wholesale ditygoods. London;
Samuel McMahen of Detroit; and Mrs.
Isaac Brown of Ohathern. Heartfelt
sympathy is extended to the bereaved
family. The remains were taken to
Lucan and interred in Flirt -cemetery
on the following Friday."
