It was with much regret that it became known in town on Saturday morning that Mrs. Milne had died the Previous day in Goderich. It was known that she had been very ill for some days and that little hope was entertained for her recovery, but still the sad news came as a shock, A little over a fortnight ago Mrs. Milne was called to Cioderich owing to the illness of the late Mrs. J. T. Goldthrope and was herself taken ill shortly after and in spite of all that could be done she gradually grew worse until the end camp. Mrs. Milne was an American by birth but had been for many pears a resident in Canada, for some thirty or more of Clinton. She was twice married, her first husband, the late Mr. McLaren, having conducted a ho- tel first at Goderich and later the Queen's Hotel, Clinton, After her husband's death she continued in the business and some time later was married to the late Chas. Milne, who died about sixteen years ago. 7•or a good many years Mrs, Milne has lived privately' in hex own house on .Victor- ia street. She was a woman of re- source, cheerful, industrious and inde- pendent and by her many .excellent qualities had won for herself, during. her long residence_ here, a large cir- cle of friends, to whom her sudden and unexpected taking oft is matter of keen regret.. She was a member' 'of Willis church and was a regular: attendant at the services and a cheerful and generous s11,pporter of its various enterprises. The funeral took place on Mondap. afternoon from the home of hera ne b d - ,p ew, Mr. J. T. Cxoldthrope, CTo ex ich, interment being made in Col- borne cemetery where Mr. McLaren was also buried. Rev, F, C. Harper, who went to Goderich to conduct. the services, wasassisted' by Rev. J. I-Iamilton Amongthosewhowe t to Cro r- ich to be present at the, last sad rites were : Mr, and Mrs. T.

A RECRUITING 1VIEETING. On Sunday evening Rev. F. C. Har- per, addressed a patriotic gathering in Willis church on 'Patriotism, Self -Respect and Personality," the local detachment of the 101st Batt. and the Kiltie baud making a good showing both in numbers and in form, 'Mr, Harper traced the influence of self-respect and freedom in gain- ing victories for Britain's' armies in her great battles since the days of Crecy andrPeritiers, and for her peo- ples in the civil rights and liberties of the subject. The personality of both soldier and subject occupied the key position, and the strength a per- sonality lay in the righteousness of their cause. He who enters even war with a good conscience ` will thro war draw closer to God. Instances of this process were found in Lincoln in the dale of the War of 1800, iu the French people of today, and in the young soldiers of our battalions who enlist at the call of the bugle, but deepen their religious convictions when they (tear the hunt of the bul- lets and the shriek of1 the shell. A FATHER PASSES. Mr. John Cordell passed away at the horse ofhis some -law, Mr, Chas, .1e. Bell of Mary street, on Sunday last after but a few daps ill- ness, the result of a stroke.

Places were provided for one hun- dred and twenty men at the union banquet in Ontario St. church on' Tuesday evening and nearly,. every chair was taken. The supper was provided by the women connected with the two Meth- odist churches in town and, needless to say, it was first-class. For an hour the large school room with its inviting tables, its .limey guests and scores of attentive waiters, were a; busy place and an inspiring sight. As soon as .supper was over, Dr, Thompson, who held the place of honox for the evening, took charge and made an excellent 'chairman. The first address was by Mr. J. A. Irwin and he well sustained the high reputation which he has gained as an able platform speaker. It was a capital 'presentation of the Mission- ary cause and its claims, and it was well received. Rev. Chas, E. Manning, -one of the general Missionary Secretaries, was the chief guest of the evening and delivered a most comprehensive ad- dress on the Missionary question viewed in the light of the war as well as the pressiug moral needs of the world, Mr, Manning's reference to the problem of our own country and its future prospects was of special interest. Though he spoke for near-, ly an 'tour the interest of the aud- ience did not lesson fora moment. The music provided by a male quartette from each church was of he best and nothing better could be desired, The splendid melodies ad- ded much to the pleasure and delight of the gathering. Rev. Dr• Rutledge,moved a vote of thanks to the ladies and in doing so paid a warm tribute of appreciation PPreciation of their worth and work. The ino- tion was seconded by Mr. C. H. 13ol- land.
