Sills, of Seaforbh, of the death of Thos, A. Sharp, which occurred ie Cleve- land, very suddenly. Me. Sharp was one of the oldest residents of Seaforbh and left here a little over a year ago. He was first engaged iu the livery businese, and afterwarde was widely known se en extensive borne buyer. Before leaving here ho was ongogod in the grocery buss. noes in company with Mr. Livens, Many old friends throughout the country will regret bo learn of his death. The Cleveland News Saye :—"A body stretch- ed upon a marble slab in a medical col- lege was identified Monday morning by Colonel D. L. Sills, of No. 81, Common• wealth avenue, as that of his brother -in. law, Thomas A. Sharp. The body was that of the men who was found in an unconscious condition at the Sherman Route at Rockport one day last week, and who died without recovering his senses. It was ab first supposed to be a wase of suicide, bub the coroner's exam• illation revealed the feat that the man had died of heart disease or apoplexy. The body was removed to Hogan cb Har- ris' morgue, where it remained for a few 'days. It was then annonnoed to the newepepor reporters thab, inaernnoh as the dead man had not been identified, the body bad been interred in the Potter's Field. On Sunday Colonel Sills went to the undertaking rooms of Hogan ie Har- ris and eked to see the body. It was not there, bub he identified the clothes as the property of Mee. Sills' brother, Thos. A. Sharp. He asked a member of the firm where the body was. He was told that it had been buried in the Pobtor's Field. Colonel Sills was not satisfied, however. Ile had grove suspicions that it had been removed to a medical college. An investigation was begun, and it was learned that Coroner Bell had given n college professor an order for the body, and that ib had been taken to the medioal department of Wooster 'University. Colonel Sills went to the college on Mon- day morning and there found the body. It had not been mutilated, and was promptly identified. Colonel Sills said that the dead man was formerly a resi• dent cf Seaforbh, Canada. He was a Canadian of English parentage, and was sixty-two years old. He had property valued ab 620,000, most of which was in real estate. His wife died two years ago last May, and he came to this oily in- tending to enter in some small Wetness. He boarded at No. 438, Superior street, and it was hie custom to dine with Colonel Sills and his sister on Sundays and Wednesdays. A week ago yesterday be didnot appear as usual. Nor did he opll on Wednesday. Colonel Sills went to hie rooms mud there learned that be had been absent eiase Tuesday. All hie effects, however, were in the rooms. Mee. Ri11s on Sunday noticed the story of the death of the man in the Rockport hotel, and she feared that the stranger might bo her brother. Her husband than went to the undertaking rooms and identified the olothes. Colonel Sills was very indignant at the discovery of the body in the college. He said the coroner gave the order to the college physicians thirty hours after death, and that in view of the faot that the clothing indicated that the dead man had been well-to-do, should have been sufficient reason to make strong efforts to identify the body. Colonel Sills intimated that he might prosecute those who were responsible for the removal of the body to the college. He said that Mr. Sharp occasionally sof• farad from i, rush of blood to the heed. He thinks that be sustained such an attack, and while dazed by it boarded a oar intending to go to his sister's home. He made a mistake, however, and board• ed a Lorain street oar. On arriving at the terminus of the railroad, Colonel Sills thinks, Mr. Sharp walked out Lorain street and, coming to himself, saw the hotel, entered it, and paid for his room that he might rest."

Mrs. Beaton has sued the Stratford Herald for putting some telegraphic -news about her in the paper some menthe ago whichsheclaims refleoted on her good name and fame.

D'Alton McCarthy and his colleagues invaded North Perth for the second time last week and held a meeting in Strat- ford on Friday night, and if a torchlight procession, an immense audience, two addresses, a handsome bouquet and a pretty little mise to kiss count for any- thing he is a dangerous man to other parties in that oonstibuenoy. No politi- cal leader visiting Stratford has had more distinctions showered upon him. Mr. McCarthy dealt almost .altogether with the National Policy, hie epeeoh- be• ing largely a reiteration of his remarks on the same question in other places. He also dealt trenchantly, as usual, with the Manitoba school question. Rev. Dr. Wild, for the first time in public, appear- ed as a champion for Mr. MoCarthy's cause. He urged Protestants to stand by one another as the Catholics of Que- bec do and they would Bemire their rights. The other speakers were Col. O'Brien, M. P., Alexander Fraser and J. M. Godfrey. At the close W. B. Free- born, reeve of Mornington, and Duncan MoEwan, a Stratford merohaat, moved a strong resolution of confidence , in Me. McCarthy and approval of his course and platform, which was carried hand- somely, the bulk of the audience voting therefor amid (sheers. Mr. McCarthy seized the opportunity to ask why such a large and representative meeting could not then and there choose a candidate in order that praotioal expression might be given by North Perth to the sentiments of the people, which indioatiots (showed to be strongly in his favor. The proposal caught, and Moses Lang, of Mornington, moved, seconded by 'P. 61. Harrison, a young Stratford barrister, that Reeve Freeborn, of Mornington, be the oandi• date under the 111o0arthy platform. This resolution also carried with prao• tidally no dissent, and Mr. Freeborn promptly excepted, this portion of the proceedings not 000upying over ten minutes. Cri,11wit ,n1 Ne ova. The O. P. R.
