Che gentleman referred td, who is a man
of deeds. rather than Words, was a grate-
ful recipient of the kind words and the
highly prized gift and the act was an
edded tribute to the thoughtfulness of
the people of bis old home locality
Mr. McD:maid did not need this fresh
token to place a proper valuation on the
worth as long, happy years in the com-
munity had proved them to possess the
qualities of bead and beart of true man-
hood and womanhood. The good
wishes are heartily reciprocated, Mr.
McDonald sold his 200 acre farm recent-
ly to Mr. Brown and is waking his
home with his brother and sister in
