DM) Am FORT WILLIAM.- Last
Sunday James 'Barr Nichol, fcnmerly
of this locality, died at Fort William,
of typhoid fever, at the early age of
24 years, 11 months and 25 days. He
was only ill for about two weeks.

Fort William last March. He was a
son of David Nichol, Lot 20, .Con. 14,
Hallett, from whose home the funeral
took place to the Union cemetery on
Wednesday afteanoou. Mr. Nichol
was a member of the Odd Fellows at
Shelburne, Ont. He was a fine young

ly with the beieaved relatives in their
unexpected sorrow.
DROPPED DBAD.-The sad news of
the sodden demise of Edward Little -
fair came as a great shock to the
people of Blyth. He had gone to Tor-
onto to visit his two sons and other
old friends and take in the Fair and
Saturday morning while walking on

family who will be deeply sympath-
ised with in their sadden bereave-
ment. Mrs. Neil Taylor. of Morris
township, is a daughter of the deceas-
ed. Truly in the midst of life we are
in death.
BY -Lew VOTING TnIESDAY NEXT, -
On Tuesday of next week the property
owners of Blyth are asked to express
their opinion on a By -Law whose pro-
visions propose auch needed exten-
sion and mimprovement along fire pro-
tection lines. No one doubts the in-
adequacy of the tank system with a
fire of any size. In the long stretches
of hose necessary, plus the heavy up-
hill pressure front the creek, there is a
big load carried by both Fire Engiue
and hose and unless thousands of feet
of the latter are kept in stock a por
service with one line will be the result
if fire is distant from supply. Hose
loses about as much by want of use as
where it is regularly in service owiug
to climatic changes, &c.,and some-
times ,
t
tinges the life of it is vernbrief. It is
a costly department of the fire system.
New hose is lIo'av required. Per-
manency and usefulness are two
points aitned at in the new proposal
as metal piping once down 1s p
rac-
tical1Y thee fee a lifetime and with 10
han •
hy t -peeper of

question is solved. By a pumping
station an immediate service, day nt
night, would be in readiness. The
By -Law calls for $4,000, but $900 of
that is for now oiler and repairs c b t pa s ko
fire en gine nowbeing made and as
g,
debentures tun 30 years nobody
will be burdened as only $260 will be
required annually. Blyth debenture
debt is only $23,555$7 and with 5% on
new debentures they should sell with
a margin. Every property owner is,
or should be, interested, as modem
fire protection is a prime necessity.

was the question ever more carefully
