Two persons whose pioneer rela- tives were buried in the almost century -old. cemetery, Miss Helen Clark, of Clairmont Farm on the ninth concession, and William Sal - lows, clerk of Colborne ToWnship, placed a plaque on the cairn. Two brothers and three sisters of Miss Clark were buried in the cemetery during the diphtheria epidemic of 1873. They - all died within a week. At the ceremony, Miss Clark recalled that at the time of the epidemic her father's uncle was making first use of anti- toxins. He was Sir James Clark, physician to Queen Victoria and whose likeness is familiar to .mil- lions in the painting, "The Doctor." Although township officials have no record as to how many were buried in the cemetery, the names from uncovered tombstones . and names recalled by elder township residents were placed in the cairn along with various other docu- ments. The documents were plac- ed by Harry McCreath, who was active in the restoration of the cemetery and the container, fash- ioned from a World War I shell case, was sealed by J. H. Neill, curator of Huron County Museum. Prayer of dedication was offered by Rev. D. W. Williams, of Victoria Street United Church, Goderich.

Qpe of the tombstones uncovered dateld back to 1847 and was apparently moved to the ceme- tery after it was opened. Another, dated 1876, marked what may have been the last burial in - the ceme- tery. Ten years ago, the township was asked to consider reclaiming the two -acre plot, which had become overgrown with brush.

Mrs. Watts, who succeeds Mass S Pauline Patterson in the post, was formerly on the staff. of the Bell Telephone Company office in Godc rich. She will assume the new position officially on October 13. Miss Patterson has served as Deputy -Sheriff for the past five years: She was recently presented with an electric clock by Sheriff Hill on behalf of employees of tht Guest preacher for the occasion was Rev. Prof. Robert Lennox, M.A., Ph.D., principal of Presby- terian College, Montreal, and guest soloist was Ronald Stewart, of Toronto. At the evening service, at which the minister and congregation of Nortn Street United Church were in attendance, Dr. Lennox took as his topic "The New Society." Society, Dr. Lennox said, was the relationship man has with man in everyday living. In the Gospel of John, he said, Jesus is dealing with individuals, whereas in the other Gospels He deals with the multitudes. Jesus singles out people personally and individually and comes to each of us singling us out from the crowd. "It is thus," he' said, "that we become part of the mystic circle of fellowship, which is one of the aspects of Christianity." The Christian faith, Dr. Lennox said, is also the most socializing factor in all human relationships. "God is ready �to give himself to us completely," he said, "and we in turn come to Him. All that is God's becomes ours and all that is ours becomes His." Thus within ,,.the Christian church, he concluded, a new soci- ety is formed—a society of hope and confidence.. "Here. is a fellow- ship of community of various peo- ple who have been brought to- gether from varied sources, since the Christian Church transcends racial and social barriers." At the morning service, Dr. Len- nox preachtui oar the subject "Pre- paring the Way of the Lord." Mr. Stewart was heard in three solos at the evening service, "Down From His Glory," "Lead Me To Cal- vary" and "God Be With You." At' the morning service he sang "0 Worship the King" and "The Love of God" and the choir was heard in "The Lord Is My Light." Dr. Lennox and Mr. Stewart were welcomed at both services by Rev. Robert G. MacMillan,- minister of Knox Church.
