resident, died at the home of his eon Jno.
Farrow, at the advanced age of 00 years
and 6 months, Deceased was born in
Stickney, Lincolnshire, England, in

ronto on Christmas day. Mr. Farrow
took up a farm in Clarke township,
Durham county, where he resided until
Doming to Huron County in 1878. Mrs.
Farrow died in the year 1800. The eub-
jeOt of this notice was a worthy Metho-
dist of many years standing and as a
°lase leader and Sabbath School teacher
pointed many to the better land. He
was a Liberal in politics, but being of a
retiring disposition never sought public
office. Although so well advanced in
years be was wonderfully active and hie
eyesight and hearing were excellent.
About three weeks ago in Dotting his toe
nails he pared too close, causing them to
bleed. Blood poisoning ensued from
which death resulted. The closing scene
wee calm and peaceful, verifying the
Scripture, "He giveth his beloved sleep."
Mr. Farrow's children are :—John, Blue -
vale ; Postmaster Farrow, Brussels ;
Mrs. Wm. Smith, Bluevale ; Asher,
Customs collector, Goderioh ; Jesse and
Mrs. Willis Farrow, deceased. Mr.
Farrow knew nothing about sickness,
having bad a freedom uncommon to the
general rule. The funeral took place on
Tueeday and was largely attended. Rev.
W. H. Mose oondaoted the service. The

family is Asher Farrow, J. P., of Guelph.

GARDEN Palma—The garden party
which came off last week at Mr. Christo-
pher's near Walton, oould not be galled a
perfect sueoeas financially or otherwise,
the proceeds amounting to $80. We may
state as reasons the weather had a
very threatening appearance, which no
doubt kept some people from coming,
and the Convention which was going on
at the same time in Brussels and which
was entirely forgotten when that even-
ing was being appointed for the garden
party. To make matters worse there
was uo program, the parties who promie.
ed to take part in it broke their word and
did not show tip leaving all for the Band
to dc, the members of which did their
parts well.
On the evening of the Queen's Birth-

The concert given Monday night under

terian ohurch was largely attended.
Mrs. and Mies Sage, the musical glass
players, rendered several selections very
prettily. -The numbers that elicited the
greatest applanes were "Annie Laurie,'
Nearer my God to Thee," "The Irish
Washerwoman," "Theo 'You'll Remem-
ber Me," and others of similar popular
repute. Perhaps this ie the first time a
St. Thomas audience bad the opportunity
of hearing the glasses—not only glasses,
but bottles and nleighbells—and in every
number the audience ebowed their ap•
prsoiation by hearty encores,
