The house of Mr's, Annie Colelough

one day recently when all her chil-
dren were under the family roof: Mr.
and Mrs. Arthur Colelough of Turn-.
bury, Man.; Mrs, W. H. Pickett and
children of Goderich tp.; Rev, :and
Mrs. J. H. Colelough of Dutton,lOnt.;
Mr. and •Mrs. Albert Colelough of
near Bayfield.
BRIDE -TO -BI,
Mr. and Mrs. David Carter an-
nounce the engagement pf their se-
cond daughter, Margaret J., to Mr.
'Charles F. Lockwood, son of Mr.
Fred Lockwood, Clinton, The mar-
raige to take place, early in Septem-
ber.
The foregoing item taken, from the
Blyth Standard will be of interest
to our readers, as the lady to whom
reference is made, has been a resi-
dent of Clinton for a number „of
years, having been employed in H.
Bartliff's restaurant where her uni-
form courtesy made it a pleasure to
buy from her.
The groom -to -be is a native of
•Clinton, so that we have an added in-
terest in the coming event.
THE LATE MRS. MARSHALL.
Ong Thursday horning last Mrs.
Robs, Marshall departed this life af-
ter nearly a year's illness. She was
born at Ba'rnataplc, Devonshire,
,England. 81 years ago. She was
a -niece of the late Jonas Gibbings,
who was the first white child born
in Huron Co.
Fifty-eight years ago she came to
Canada to visit frienas and was
shortly afterwards mairiecl to Mr.
William Churchill. He died six
years later. In 1873 she was married
to Robt. Marshall and for forty-three
years she lived on the farni on the
Bayfield Road. Eight years ago her
husband died and she came to town
and has lived with her daughter,
Mrs. Jas. Livermore, where she has
enjoyed a conplet'p rest. Though
very frail for a number of years she
was able to keep about until De-
cember last, since then she has been
confined to her bed most of tho time.
Sha bore her sufferings cheerfully,
never would complain and always had
a smile for everybody. She leaves
to mourn the loss of a good mother:
Samuel G„ of Marpole, B. C., Mrs.
Anne E. Cook of Brussels, Mrs. T.
H. Cole, Mrs. J. Livermore and Mrs.
E. Jac)cson and John all of Clinton.
One son died six years ago.
The funeral took place from the
home of Mrs. Livermore on Sunday
afternoon and was largely attended
by sympathizing friends. Beautiful
floral emblems were placed upon the
casket, including a pillow from the
family. The services were conduc-
ted by the Rev. S. Anderson of Ont,
St. Church where Mrs. Marshall went
with her daughter since coating to
Clinton.
Thus one by one all the old resi-
dents of Clinton and Goderich Tp.
are passing away till very few re-
main indeed.

WEDDED AT REGINA.
The Regina Leader gives the follow-
ing account of the wedding of a ne-
,1tive Clintonian that of Wilfred Hey-
wood, youngest child of the late Ri-
chard Heywood ,of Clinton.
The bridal couple spent part of
their honeymoon with the groom's
sister, Mrs`. A. J. Butt of Saskatoon.
A very pretty wedding took place
at St. Paul's church, Regina, Monday,
Aug. 2nd at 9.30, when Miss Olive
Berger, recently the matron of the
Melville municipal hospital, became
the bride of Mr. G. Wilfred Heywood,
of Melville. The ceremony was per-
formed by Rev. J. K. Irwin, of Bal-
earres. The bride entered the church.
with Mr. Jas. Hindson, to the strains
of the wedding march played by B,.
M, Laubach. She was charmingly
attired in a snit of sand -colored tri-
colette, with hat to match, trimmed
in old rose and gold, and wore a
corsage bouquet of roses. Miss Ma-
deleine IIindson, the bridesmaid, was
prettily gowned in old roses and
white tricolette, with picture hat in
the same tones, and corsage bouquet
of carnations. The groom was at-
tended by `Chas. McCloy of Melville.
Tile gift of the bridesmaid was an
onyx ring, pearl -set; and to the best
man' a tie pin. Following the cere-
mony a reception was held at the
home of Mrs. Jas. Hindson, 2220
Lorne street, The prettily -appointed
table was presided over by Mrs.
Blanchard, of Long Beach, assisted by
Miss Florence Hastings. Kr. and Mrs.
Heywood left on the Imperial Limit-
ed for Vancouver and Seattle, amt on

DEATH OF A FORMER RESIDENT.
The following, taken from the
Lloysminster Times refers to a for-
mer Clintonian, of whose sudden
death at Lloychninster, we made re-
fereitce two weeks ago:
The town was shocked on Sunday
morningwhen h me a
the shag was
flashed into many times by phone that
Mrs, John Bell had suddenly passed
away. The sari event taking place
about the time deceased was in the
habit ofgetting ready to attend
church every Sunday morning, which
was her invariable rule. She did not
have the opportunity last Sunday
morning, as she was called to wor-
ship in the great church Beeyons this
vale of sin and trouble. We believe
she is now in the innnediate presence
of the One whose house she loved to
attend so regularly whilst upon earth.
We understand that the late Mrs.
Bell was as Well as usual on Satur-
day, but had felt unwell during the
night; the end coming with painful
suddenness about nine o'clock • on
Sunday morning.
Deceased, who was . 68 years of
age, dict • not survive her husband
long, he havingldied almost as sud-
denly last spring. Much sympathy
is expressed with Mr. and Mrs. Reg-
gie, Mr. and Mrs. Tuffley, and the
other relatives, in their sad bereave-
ment, under these pathetic condi-
tions. Deceased was beloved by all
who knew her for her kind and
gentle disposition, She was always
cheerful and bright; and had, we
believe laid up hos treasure "where
moth and rust doth not corrupt."
Tho deceased lady was born in
amen otn County, Ontario, and lived
at Londesboro, afterwards» removing
to Clinton, Ont. In 1906.the family
came to Lloydntinstor. She leaves
to mourn. her loss one son and two
daughters; Mr. 1. Bell, Mrs. Tuff-
ley, and Mrs. H. 0. Bell,

SEEKING FOR RELATIVES.
A few days ago 'Mr. Baltham, an
aged gentleman of 73 years, came to
town having journeyed all the way
from Alabama to make inquiries for
his sister, Mrs. Jonathan Brown, who
had bken a resident of Clinton for
many years and of whom he conics not
by writing get any trace.
It is 52 years since Mr. Baltham
had met his sister and he had hoped
to see her once more. Learning that
both she and her husband had passed
away he left for Toronto to find Leigh

daughter, known here as Miss Nellie
Brown, but now harried and living

MARRIED AT PLATTSVILLE. •
Clinton people were interested in
the wedding which took place on
Wednesday of Rev. (Capt.) Robert
Irwin, son of A. J. and Mrs. Irwin
of town, to bliss Clara Sipes of
Plattsville.
The bride will be remembered by
the ladies of Clinton and vicinity as
the very courteous and attentive
milliner at Mr. Irwin's when that de-
partment was a feature of their store.
Later 'Miss Sipes became a graduate
nurse and practiced her profession
in Cleveland.
The groom needs no introduction to
Clinton people as lie was a well known
figure in our town some years ago
and of recent years his military ser-
vices as chaplain were valuable en-
ough to win hint considerable distinc-
tion.
The wedding was a very quiet one,
only the -immediate friends being wit-
nesses. Miss Ruby Irwin of town
was present. -

A UNIQUE ANNIVERSARY,
MR. AND' MRS. D. E. BOUCK.
On Saturday, Aug. 14th, 1920 Mr,
and Mrs. D, E. Bouck of Boucles
Hill, County of Dundas, celebrated
the 60111 anniversary of their wed-
ded life. The event was rendered
quite extraordinary. from the fact
that in a family of eight children,
four boys and four girls they were
permitted to meet on this occasion
without a break in the family circle
and at the old home^where they were
all been. Besides the immediate
fancily there are 26 grandchildren and
10 great grandchildren.
Mr. Boucle who is eighty-three
years old comes from U. E. L. stock
and Mrs: Bouck, seventy-eight years
is a wee bit of old Erin, coming from
Belturbit, County Caven, when she
was but ten years old. The oldest
son is fifty-nine and the youngest
daughter forty, Seventy-five sat
down to the wedding'feast, served on
the lawn, sixty-seven of whom were
immediately connected with the fanc-
ily and the remainder childhood pals
and close friends of the aged couple.
After dinner, the Ring, the jubilee
couple, the old hone, the family cir-
cle, Our sister Ida, who has sacri-
ficed her life for her parents, the
grandchildren and great grandchil-
dren were aptly toasted by members
-of the family. Mr, Wm. Bouck, More -
wood, creditably performing the dut-
ies of toastmaster.
During their united journey
through life they have witneeseed
great changes in the social and po-
litical life of Canada and many are
the stories they can tell of the joys
and sorrows, the hardships and priv-
ations which they endured for those
they loved in the pioneer days in
this country.
We believe it is very rare in the
family histories of this Dominion that
a diamond jubilee celebration -takes
place under such auspicious .circum-
stances as the above.
