Dr. Hobert Harbottle, , of Burford, Brant County, Wednesday morning shot Herman Stewart, a wsll.to•do farmer, who lime a mile South of the village on the P1 airfield road, The shooting was not aooidental. Dr. Harbottle deliher. ately pulled the revolver from hie pooket when he was standing only a foot from Stewart, and pointing the weapon at Stewart's bead, palled the trigger. The bullet entered Stewart's head at the trniple and passed out just behind and alightly above the ear. Although the victim bled profusely, the wound ie not at all dangerous; and be will recover without a doubt. The bullett did not enter the eoalp, but glanced off, . One- quarter of an inch more and Stewart would have died instantly, according to the dootor who dressed the wound. The shooting is the outcome of a some. whet bitter feeling that has existed against Dr. Harbottle beoauee of the views be entertained ae to the war in South Afrioa. It is stated by dozens of the Burford villagers that the dootor would receive news of British reverses in South Africa with manifestations of delight and that he was openly pro Boer in hie atti'ude. This feeling against him oommeneed at the time that the war. broke out, and was intensified when some young men were brought to tack for their demonstrations. Dr. Harbottle bad few sympathizers in the village, and he wan ridioaled in almost every way. Bober minded people in the village gay that he was very often taunted, and it is certain that hie views did not make him any friends. Stewart, the man who was shot, is a well-to•do farmer. He went into the village Wedneedaymorning, and, as Dr. Harbottle was going from the corner where Ludlow's general store stands to the pogtoffioe to get his mail,' Stewart Paw him and followed, the two walking almost abreast. Several persons were watching the two, to see whether or not Harbottle would take any offense, it being, a well known fast that they were not on speaking terms. No word passed between them from what is known, The dootor went into the poetef5oe, .rand then started booktowarde the corner, a distance' of about fifty yards or thereabouts. Some one in the orowd shouted, "Brace tip, Stewart," the purpose being to call the attention of .the doctorto the fast that Stewart was walking behind him. At the oorner, within full view of half a dozen spectators, Harbottle palled a revolver from his pooket and shot at Stewart, who wag then not more than a foot from him. The bullet, as said before, entered about the temple, and, glancing on the skull, oame oat behind the ear! Dr. Harbottle+e house resembles a miufature fortress. The windows of the two upper storiesare barricaded by being completely boarded over, and the doors and windows on the ground floor are so fixed that they can instantly be closed' effectually with sheet -iron barricades. The side of the house bears marks of the regard some of the villagers have for Dr. Harbottle, half a dozen big spots, ebowing that paint in varying quantities hos been thrown against it. Harbottle was arranged before Jaetioee of the Peace Rutherford, Cox and Gray, on a °barge of shooting with intent to do bodily harm, and was committed for trial at Brantford. HURON'S OLDEST OFFICIAL. Sketch of Ira Lewis, the Patriarch of the Court House. Perhaps the best and most widely known man in the county today, ie the subject of this eketob, Ira Lewis, M. A., B. 0. L., County Attorney and Clerk of the Peace for Huron, and it may also be said that there are few county ofEdiale eo generally known throughout the Province. The Court House is familiar to him, and hie long 000upancy of an office in that building makes him the guardian of ite other occupants. Although he has held the pooltion of County Attorney for 42 years he paeoee in and out of the build- ing with the step of a you, and when, during the warm days of Summer the officiate enjoy the afternoon siesta on the North poroh, Ira Lewis is recognized as patriarchal preeident. In 1875 the gentleman beeame Clerk of the Pease through the death of Mr. Lizare, an aot having bees passed oo bining this officio with that of 0o. Attorney, and from that day until the present he has been a dnal official, Forbytwo years official life would wear out most men, bat Mr. Lewis passed the four deoadeo without wishing to resign, and today is freed, vigorous and painstaking, and It can be truly said of bim that he never neglected a olent and never lost one, through abeenoe from his offioo or inattention to business. On the etreete of Goderioh no man is better known, and hie uprightness and elasticity of step are eeeminglyao they were 42 years ago. We may mention that Mr. Lewin wae born at Lynn, County of Leede, 8 point then known as 'Coleman's Corners, and that in the early years of hie boybood he was a student at the Brookville Grammar School. He .after• wards attended Oazenobia Seminary, Oneida Cy., N. Y., and the Wesleyan University, Middleton, Conner:Meat, and in 1841 became an undergraduate of Yale, at that time, se now, the foremost ani. varsity in the U. S. He graduated in a slaw of 104 in 1844, out of whish number 27 were living recently. Among those of hie glass mane still in the flab ate Hon, Edward H. Averyr preeident of Auburn Bank, N.

Exooediogly gratifying and enoonrag- ing reporte were given by the various. members of the Presbytery, showing this department of ohuroh work to be in a very flourishing condition, signed the 1844 diplomas are ooneidorecl 05101010 heirlooms today, Leaving •gale, Mr. Lewin proceeded to Tomtit! and entered the law office of the then Premier Robert Baldwin, He resided in the Queen City four yore, and, judged by the reoord, be must bate bon a hard rvm1kee, fee he took !moo in law from Hama Blake, attended to his oflioe duties, took a R.

Q. 1. in 1818, he moved eo Gode. rich, end the day following hie arrival hie shingle was seep ou the Square, near Montreal street. From the day of hie arrival in Goderioh Mr. Lewia hoe always praotie04 his profeesion, but 110 could always epees time to help along a project snob ae the Northern gravel road. From the reoord of the Toronto Uuivereity we find that our old citizen was appointed to the Senate of that Uulversity to 1859 by Sir Bdmuud Head, evidently as a tribute to the gentleman's eoholarehip, Shortly after settling in Goderioh Mr, Lewie was married, 1849, to Julia, daugh ter of William and Elizabeth Dwight, of New Haven, Oonneotiout. Mee. Lewis died nearly 3 years einoe, but of the mar. tinge 8 children survive, Jerome Dwight, of Buffalo, and Edward Norman and Miss Alice May, of town. That this well known Government oflroial, who was a B, A, 57 years ago, attends regularly to his otiiae work, ie no wonder, for be writes his own lettere without the use of epeataclee, hie hearing ie excellent and his appearance in court is iodioative of health and long lite. Mr. Lewis, it may be mentioned, is a member of Maitland lodge, No, 33, A. F. & A. M., and though, on amount of long memberehlp, the lodge a'tew years since elected' him an honor. ary member, he still attenda the meet. inge. • Presbytery of Maitland. This Preebytery met in the Presbyter: ian thumb, Wingham, 00 Tuesday, 19111 inet•, and was constituted by Rev. S. M. Whaley in the absence of the Moderator. The minutes of previous meeting were read and eeebained. Commieeiunere'ere entitled to be Bent to the General Aeeem• bly from the following congregations :- Ministers -South Kinloee, Wingham, St. Helens, Aehfleld, Brussels ; Elders -- North Kinloss, McIntosh, Riley, Moles. worth and Dungannon. On account of 111 health, Rev, J. Max. well tendered hie resignation of the charge of Kinloss. Delegates spoke in the high. eat termsof the good work that has been done during Mr. Maxwell's pastorate.' Under exieting circumstances, the Pres• bytory could not do other4vise than accept his resignation. Rev. Jas. Mnloolm was appointed Moderator of the vaoanoy, the pulpit to be vacant' the first Sunday in J0000ry., It was moved by Rev. R, B. G. Ander. eon, seconded by Rev. A. McLennan that the Preebytery accept the resignation of Mr. "Maxwell; to take plane. Deoember 31st. In doing so the Presbytery would express its deep regret that in the Prov idenoe of God, they should be compelled to do eo, and theirheartfelt sympatby with Mr. Maxwell in the affliction, whish has rendered tbie step neoeeeary. In' partingwith him, they would put on record their high appreoiation of him both as a Christian man and a minister of hie earnestness in his culling -of the work which he has been enabled to acoomplieh in the oharge of Kinloss, Rules For Success' In Life.
