o While walking through the dark
corridors of 'the 'Ontario parliament
buildings in Toronto, an artist made
a remark about a *tinting of Laura
Secord hanging on the Walls. He re-
tailed for The benefit of a Toronto
newspaperman the legend of the
painting which was said to have ori-,-
ginally_ bbenrirortralt- Gebr
Ross,. once -•premie sof--Ontario,: -Th
legend has been known for years; but
not until this week was it investigat-
ed. The legend was that Sir George
Ross' portrait was painted by Miss
Mildred Peel, a sister of the great
Paul Peel, But -when the Ontario
legislature refused to 'pass the ex-
penditure, the picture was sent back.
Later, Sir George succeeded in hav-
ing the government purchase a paint-
ing of Laura Secord. For 31 years
the legend that the picture of the
famed heroine of Niagara had been
painted over Sir George's figure has
been known. The painting was taken
down and an X-ray photo made. Sure
enough, there was revealed the por-
trait of Sir George Ross with Laura
Secord's cap on his head. The paint-
ing as it appears under the searching
X-rays are shown ABOVE. Mr. F.
Worrell; the X-ray specialist, says
the.painting of Sir George is a much
finer piece of art and has offered to
remove the Laura Secord superim
position.

again, on Sunday, March 1st, and
called a much loved and respected
citizen in the person of Mr. John
Raithby. He had been in poor health
for some time, but until. Friday of
last week, no immediate danger was
felt. Mr. Raithby who was in his
73rd year, was born in the Walker -
burn section, and attended school at
No, 9, Hullett. On March 20th, 1889,
he was married to Miss Matilda Lan-
sing, who survives him. They first
lived on the farm now occupied by
S. Lansing, then moved to, where Mr.
E. Raithby now lives, then • to the
place at present owned by. Joseph
Miller, and for several years before
they moved to the , village, eight
years ago, they farmed where Mr.
Frank Raithby, their younger son
now lives• more or less of a hoax, as the origin-

ful member of the Baptist Church,
being a deacon for forty years, and a
Bible class teacher for some 25 years.
Mr. Raithby felt his call was com-
ing, and made plans for his funeral
service, and chose his bearers, as well
as the text, "John 3. 16". His favor-
ite hymns; sting- at- h i s request, were:
`There is a fountain filled with blood',
"Jesus Lover of my soul," "All hail
the power of Jesus name"; Mr. El-
mer Robertson being requested to
sing a solo. The bearers were Glen
Raithby, Sidney Lansing; Lloyd Fer-
guson, Tom. Johnston, Robert Phil-
lips, and Elwin Raithby of Guelph.
Service was in the Baptist Church at
2 p.m., Tuesday, conducted by Rev.
Mr. Loney, Preston. Interment took
place in Ball's cemetery.
Besides his widow, he leaves two

one daughter, Mrs. Stanley Johnston
of East Wawanosh, and three broth-
ers: ,James, of Walkerburn; George,
of Auburn; and Rev. Wm. Raithby of

He will be greatly missed by all
who knew and loved him, and espe-
cially by the members and adherents
of the Baptist church, where he took
such a prominent part in all Church
