This is the second fire that the Exeter Salt Worsts has had in three months- The first fire to- tally destroyed the main building, and the plant has riot been in opera- tion since. - Yesterday afternoon the roof of the office buildiirg was being fresh- ly tarred, and a pot of tarwas tip- ped over and caught fire. It was apparently' put' out at the time, but it is now surmised that some of the boiling tai must have trickled down through unnoticed. The alarm was turned in about 8.15 p.ni,, and was promptly answered by the Exeter fire' department Their promptness, no doubt. . saved what might have been a serious fire as a brisk wind was blowing directly towards the reserve gasoline tanks of the Ins - 1)&101 Gas Company, situated a scant 75 yards aeiay,.

Miss .Kathleen Hickey of. Toronto is the guest of Mas. Gordon Cun- inghame at her new summer cottager It was with very deep regret that People learned' on Friday evening of the sudden passing to the Eternal Home of on& of the Most highly res- pected and well-known residents of this district in the person of Wil- liam Heard: Mr. Heard had not been well for some time, having suffered a 'stroke of paralysis last October, from which he did not fully recover, but he bore his ill -health cheerfully and was always anxious to help with the work. On Friday he seemed brighter arid- better than usual. He had gone to the barn to help with the chores, and it was near the barn door that his two elder sons, Russell and Will, found- hint lying in an 'unconscious state when they carie in from the fields, about seven o'clock. They carried him to the house .and immediately summon- ed medical aid but nothing could be done. The deceased was one of a family of ten, the eldest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Heard. He was born on January 21st, 1859 in the little log cabin which stood on the farm now owned by Ms's, F. G. Neelin on the Sauble Line, Stanley township. He grew to manhood in this district and •became a farmer, which trade he followed as long as his health permitted. The house and other bnildings on his farm on the out- skirts or the village were all built by him. On the twelfth of April. 1899, he was married to Eleanor Scotehmer. To this happy union were born four children, Russell, Will and Fred at home and Nina of Goderich township, all of whom survive. An industrious man, a kind hus- band and father and of sterling character, the deceased was of a very happy but retiring disposition and was highly respected by all with whom he came in contact. He was a life-long anember of Trinity Church, Bayfield, and belonged to the Canadian Order of Foresters and the Loyal Orange Order. Besides his sorrowing widow and Tamil¢ he is survived by two sisters, Mrs. Ellen Howard of Detroit and Mrs. Martha Castle of the village, four brothers and three sisters, Jini, Dick, Toni, John, Lucy, Mary Anne, Elizabeth, having predeceased him. The funeral, which was very large- ly attended was held on Monday. Af- ter a short service at the house at two o'clock, the cortege left for Trinity Church. The service was conducted by the Rector, Rev. P. II. Paull, who tools for his text, St. Luke 12-35,36: "Let year lions be girt about and your lights burning; And Ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their Lord, when he will re- turn from the wedding; that when he cometh and knoeketh they ;may open unto hint immediately." Rev. Wm. Townshend, Church of the Re- deemer, Sondem assisted with the service. Interment was made in Bayfield Cemetery, the Canadian Order of Foresters having charge of the ser- vice at the graveside. The pallbearers were four neph- ews, •George and Jack Castle, Niiiian and Emmerson Heard, and John Cameron and John E. Itoward. Those from a distance who at- tended the funeral were: Mfrs.
