00 Friday, Nov, 15th, John Morris
passed away in hie 86th year, Siuoe
August he had beau ailing, but it was not
until the 8th inst. that he was oompelled
to take to his bed, from which it was de-
creed that be should not rise again.
John Morris was a well-known figure in
Colborne for more than sixty years. He
was born in Westbury, Wiltshire, Eng-
land, Aug. 28rd, 1810, and 00310 to Can-
ada in 1882, first residing in Hamilton,
but in 1884 he moved to Colborne and
settled upon the farm on which be died.
Huron sixty years ago was almost a
trackless waste, and of the band of hardy
pioneers who contributed to reclaim the
wilderness and bring it to its present state
of high cultivation none did more than
Jbhn Morris. Ou more than one occas•
ion in the early dive it was his lot to
walk to Hamilton and return, forrail-
ways then were unknown, and staging
being both unsatisfactory and expensive,
was not largely patronized by the ragged
pioneers of the West, whose hank Re-
count was as small as their energy was
great.
Three years after his arrival in Col-
borne the rebellion of 1837 broke out, and
at 014 call for volunteers sturdy John
Morris was one of the first to respond,
and marched from Goderioh to Sarnia to
do service in the cense of hie adopted
country. Returning from the seat of
military operations, he at once settled
down to the task of improving his farm,
but bie neighbors had by .this time dis-
covered that the young Englishman was
a man of sound judgment and integrity,
and, so, when the districtingwan made
under the municipal act, John • Morrie
found himself unanimously selected as a
member of the first oouuoil board of Col-
borne township. He was re-elected for
eleven years, when he retired, having
done excellent work for the "township
during his time of servioo. For many
years he was a county magistrate, and
proved himself to be an efficient officer in
that regard.
During the years of hie residence in
Colborne no name has been more familiar
than that of John Morris. Hospitality
was a oharaoteristio of ,nearly all the
pioneers, but bis house was always open
to the wayfarer, and a helping hand to
others less euooeesful than himself was
part of his creed. In religion he was a
consistent Methodist, and he died In the
hope of a blessed immortality. In early
days before churches were so numerous
aa they aro to -day, his house was always
open for divine worship.
In polities he was an ardent Liberal,
and, although tint givento controversy,
cvas alwaye willing and able to give a
reason for his political faith, He was
married in 1880 to Mime EllzabethPiaroe,
who died in Ootober, 1874, and the union'
was blessed with a familyof eight daugh-
iers and three dons, of whom the follow•
ing enrviv0 ;-George, Joseph and Harry,
all farmers of Colborne totvuehip ; Mee,
Reid, Mrs. Harris, Wire. Holland and
Mrs. Beck, of Goderioh ; and Mrs. Cliff-
ord, of Louisville, Ky. Twenty-three
grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren
also survive.
In his long life illness: had troubled
hien little for he was naturally of a strong
oonetibotion, active temperament and
Cheerful disposition, and so it was that
hie passing away was ofthat oharaoter
where the power of motion gradually
ceases, and the pendulum of time swings
slowor and alowor, until after years of
nsefulnoss and well•doing the last stroke
ie made and the final beat has been re-
corded. Tbue quietly at the oloee of a
long life passed the spirit of John Morrie
from hie earthly todetnent. Hie work
bad been done, and well done, and he on•
ly awaited the summons of the Master to
leave hie tarrying place and go Home to
enjoy the welcome awaiting the faithful
servant,
Outside of ilia own family there aro
many who will drop n eympathetie tear
over the death of 'oltr) orrie.

' The funeral on Monday of last week,

to the univerest regard in which the de•
ceased had been held, The religious ser=
vines were 5onduoted by Peva. Pring, of

derson, of Auburn, all of whom visited
him in his illness, By hie own appoint-

Freeman has been frequently heardfrom
through the various newspapers, and al-
though a resident Of a comparatively
recent date, he has exerted muoh public
influence, which has been increased by
the fact that be was ten years ago on a
oomminmion appointed in England to in-
vestigate the troublesome question of the
vice of great cities.
He has preaohed before cultured audi•

the Rooky mountains, and his utterances

line of progress and liberality, well sea.
Boned with practical common sense.. Dr.
Freeman has written this paper a letter
which will be read with interest. He
says :—
"Some five years since I found that
deep study and excessive literary Work,
in addition to my ordinary ministerial
duties, were undermining my health. I
detected that I was unable to understand
things as clearly as I usually did ; that
after but little thought and study I suf.
fared from a doll pain in the head and
great weariness, and all thought and
study became a burden to rue. I lost
appetite, did not relish ordinary food,
after eating,suffering acute pains in the
chest and balk. There was soreness of
the stomach, and the most of my food
seemed to turn to sour water, with most
sickly and suffocating feeling in vomit-
ing up such sour water.

At this time I consulted several physi-
ofane. One said I was run down, an-
other said I had ohrouio indigestion ;
but this I do know, that with all the pre
soriptions which they gave me I was not
improving ; for in addition I bad pains
inthe region of the kidneys, a very slug-

mnoh like a yellow man, was depressed
in spirits, imagined all sorts of things
and was daily becoming worse and felt
that I ehonld soon beoome a confirmed
invalid if I did not soon understand my
oomplaicta. I followed the advise of
physioians most severely, but with all I
was completely unable to do my minis-
terial duties, and all I oould possibly do
was rest and try to be thankful. After
10 month's treatment I found I was the
viotitn of severe palpitation of the heart,
and was almost afraid to walk across my
room, Amid all this I was advised to
take absolute rest from allmental work.
In fact, I was already unable to take any
ditty for, the reason that the feeling of
oomplate prostration after the least exer-
tion, precluded me from nny duty what-
ever, and it appeared to lay mind that I
was very near being a perfect wreck, As.
for taking absolute rest, I could not take
more than I did unless it wail 00 absolute

have been absolute enough,

which I oudured, I found creeping upon,

tried to walk I. had to drag the left foot
along the ground. The power of loco.
motion seemed to be gone, and I was oon-

partial paralysis. Whether it was or nob
