A PIONxEa GONE,—There passed away on April 23rd, in Hale, Iosco county, Michigan, Wm. Little, form- erly of the 4th line, Morris. Sixty- one years ago, this pioneer and his brother, James, located on 200 acres of land in Morrie, where he lived until a short time before his demise, when he went to reside with his daughter in Michigan. His early life was full of the incidents usual in the life of a pioneer. Morris then formed part of the Quotes Bush. There were . no roads, and he cut out a road for several miles, when he moved on to the land, and built a small shanty on the banks of the Maitland, where he and his brother had more than one bat- tle with the wolves, who were deter- mined to hold possession. One night, the wolves were bound on feasting on the oxen, the only team the brothers had. Deceased kindled a fire at a big, dry pine stub, and the wolvesretreat- ed. Some time after, one of the oxen died ; the other a remarkably power- ful and intelligent animal was used alone to clear and till the land, draw supplies, and used in place of a ferry boat to take passengers across the river, Old or young, male or female, they were placed on the back of the ox, and swimming across, the faithful animal would land the passengers safely on the other side. Mr. Little had an iron constitution and great will power. He was particularly sought for at raisings, and will be remembered for yeare. He was kind in his disposition and would go miles to dress a wound, and could attend the sick with such tenderness that many times he took the place of a doctor, when none could be had. His many kind acts will not be forgotten, Mr. Little's remains were brought to the residence of his son, Mr. John Little, on Wednesday, and. interment took place in Brandon cemetery. He was 82.
