He had been ill for some Months but his condition had ,seemed to be improving and death came very suddenly. Mitt Tyndall was a son of Mr. and Mrs. Loren Tyndall and was born on the homestead and bad lived all his life in the community. Ten years ago he went into partnership with his brother-in-law, Mr. C. D. Connell, and they dealt in cattle andconducted a butchering business in :Clinton, the partnership being in effect up to the time of his ,death: He is survived- by his wife, form- erly Miss Myrtle A. Connell, only daughter of Mr..and Mrs. W'. D. Con- nell,and two sons and one daughter: Weldon aged.rhirteen, Doris aged ele- ven and Bruce aged six. His parents and four brothers and a sister also survive:. Frank of Hullett, Roy, in Goderich township, Clifford, .Toronto and Norman in Tuckersmith, and Mrs. Howard Trewartha of Mullett. Mr. Tyndall was a young man who had the respect of all who knew him and his early demise is sincerely re- gretted by a wide circle of friends. He was a member of Ontario street church and the pastor of that church, Rev. F. G. Perrin, conducted the ser- vice at '-the family residence yester day afternoon. The pallbearers 'were the four brothers and two brothers-in-law.' The flower bearers were: C. Levy, F. VanEgmond, E. Welsh, N. Ilolland, M, Wiltse, P. Plumsteel, E. Brown and F. Andrews: Interment was made in Clinton cemetery.` Unfortunately the real Mrs. Brooks (Miss Gay Whitmore) turns up to find her husband with another woman, but things seem comfortably settled in the .Dillingham and Ruggles fam- ily until the real owner of the gloves, 8n actress (Miss Reta Beacom) ap- pears. She had accompanied the men on the trip to see about buying some land for her husband as a surprise and she wanted it kept a secret. Tho' she is ,successfully whisked off, into another room, her umbrella which she` left behind betrays her presence. Fin, ally Ms. Ruggles discovers her in person when she conies back for her umbrella, which was arecent pre- sent from her jealous husband, (Mr. Clayton Elliott) the two men quickly. pass her off as a girl who has applied for the position of a maid, whom the women of the house are badly in need of. The men say they had hid, den her because they thought she was too pretty and might arouse jealousy, but the storm ,bhrrsts again when her husband comes for her. The two wives and ' also Mrs. Brooks decide to sue for divorce. While, hiding behind a screen to ob- tain secret information they learn the truth of the matter and the hus- bands are forgiven on the grounds. that they will take their wives back to live in town.
