Principal Cavan, D. D., of Knox College, Toronto, and the afternoon service •y the Rev. 1'. Musgrave, iVloKillop. The ervices were very nnpressive and were listened to with wrapped attention by large and appreciative congregations. A very successful tea meeting was held on Monday evening. Tea was served in the basement, when the tables were (as the preacher said) groaning under their load. Short and ap- propriate addresses were delivered by the resident and neighboring clergy. On TIER - day evening a social was given, when again the church was filled to its utmost capacity, when a spicy programme consisting of read- ing:, recitations and singing was presented causing much merriment.

On Wed- nesday morning, March 2nd, the news flashed across the wires that John Dagg. was dead.. It .could hardly be believed to be true. He had. been in good spirits and quite hearty a few days before. The old anxiom, "in life we are in death," was never more truly exemplified than in the present case. In politics he was a staunch and consistent Conservative. The deceased exposed himself to the wea- ther considerably during the late election campaign and it is thought that he, being pf a very active temperament, so exhausted his whole saistem that inflammation of the bowels set in—this being the third severe attack—and resulted as stated above. Deceased resided on his farm—probably the location • will be better known by stating that the property on whiph the famous Donnelly tragedy took place cor- ners on it—and at the time of his death was 51 years and 11 months old.

Deceased was in his thirty-seventh year and leaves a wife and four children to mourn his loss.

He left the stable and went 'to the hotel, but returned at the appointed hour 10 o'clock., when rig and driver were in waiting. Soon he was borne out of Park- hill into the country, and while driving along the lonely road leading through Miller's flats, four men sprang inbo. sight, two of whom caught the horse, while others pulling revolvers, demanded his "money or Ins life." He gave themhis pocket book, and they allowed him to de- part, believing they had secured his money. Kuneman, it is said, told the driver to urge his hoase, lest the robbers might again molest, them. This the driveierefueed to do, and allowed the ani - mai to jog along.

The various and num- erous positions of honor and trust the deceased has held in life go to show the sterling worth of the man. Nob only was he well thought of by his neighbors, by the township of Biddulph, by Middle- sex, Bruce, Perth and Huron, but he was a popular favorite wherever he was known. In the community in which he lived he had been honored as a eouncil- nutn,as deputy -reeve, school trustee,presi- dent of the N.
