Speaking preventively Mr. 1.1, E. Tom, of Goderith. Editor we hope that the, ()Maids. of. Si. Marys foot ba'l club will not give occasion for references such as we have been compelled to make at this time, and. in passing netting the reference to Observer being ashamed to sign his name we may say that greater minds than Observer or in fact greater than the author of last week's epistle have seen fit to adopt a pseudonym in place of their own. In conclusion I may say regarding my prev- ious communication that the chief official of the Kirkton club was fully coznizeett of the fact that it was sent to the St. Marys Journal for publication, and expressed himself as well eatisfied with the contents thereof, and we would be pleased indeed to see the explanation referred to, which is stated was proffered by a member of the Kirkton foot hall altib, for we fail to see any explanation of the affair in the outpourings of wrath with which the eearetery of St. Marys team visited upon ns in your issue of last week.

The long looked for deoision of ,the bridge appeal case of Morrie Township ye. Huron Co., was rendered reoently ars follows; -"Township of Morris -vs. County of Huron. Judgment in action tried without a jury at Goderich. Action to recover 40 per cent, of the amount expended by the plaintiffs in the maintenances of certain of their bridges, founded on 011 award, Judgment for plaintiffs with ooste, for 90 per teat. of the expenditure made by them for the maintenance of the bridges mentioned in the award before the 1st September, 1894. If the parties cannot agree as to the remount there will be a reference made to ascertain it." Reeve Mooney is making enquiry as to the new bridges erected or in course of erection in .895. This decision will probably settle the question as the county has paid more in lew than the full amount claimed. NINDLYFACTS. In Jan. 1892 113Y son was taken with Kidney disease.
