friends when she was fifteen years
of age. iShe was later married to
James Sturgeon and after living herb
for eleven years, they, with their
four children, Sarah, Annie, William'
and John, returned to Bleary, Co.
Down, Ireland. But after having liv-
ed. in Canada for so log, the Old
Country did not seem the same to
them, and they returned after eleven
months absence; tv Bayfield, where
the family has lived. ever since. The
late Mrs. Sturgeon was of a gentle,
retiring nature, beloved by all who
knew her. Although very active for
her age, she had been in failing
health for the paist six months. She
leaves to 'mourn their loss, a daugh-
ter, Mrs. A. Catlin%, Port Stanley,

The funeral, which was largely
attended, was held from Trinity
chruch on Wednesday afternoon at
one o'clock, and conducted by the
rector, Rev, • W. G. Bugler, who' took
for the text of his address: "Now this
I say, brethren, that flesh and blood
cannot inherit the kingdom of God;.
neither doth corruption inherit ineor•
ruption." Interment was made in
Bayfield Cemetery. The pallbeavers
were: James Reid, M. Ross, John
Cameron, A. E, Erwin, W J, McLeod

London;' Mrs. A. Catling, Mrs. S.

Mrs. Eva Sturgeon, London.
A veser interesting meeting was
held by the Young• Peoples' Dept. of
St. Andrew's United Church when
Miss Lucy Woods gave a delightful
and interesting lecture on her trip
to Ireland. All felt that they had in-
deed been transported across the oc-
ean, Miss Woods has a wonderful
memory and gift for lecturing and
her hit of Irish humour added lots or
spice and variety to her story. Mr.
Dom McKenzie 'favoured the gather-
ing very creditably with the English
song, "John Peel," and 'as the hour
was late, the social period was dis-
pensed with.
For the first three minutes Clinton
had the better of the ,play but both
teams were breaking fast. After
five minutes of torrid playing Russ
Anderson took the peek at centre
ice. With a burst -of speed he went
down right wing, rounded the defense
and as he went past Elliott he drew
him out and planted.the puck in the
corner. Burnside missed the open
net on a combination attack and the
Clinton goalie was quick to clear the
rebound. Pickett worked right in and
tested Riggin with a tough one.
Sutherland tripped McEwan and drew
the first nod of the evening, Despite
the fact that they were a man
short the locals still forced the play
holding the .puck in the Clinton goal
area. A.t fourteen minutes with the
second line on Capstick made a smart
play when he breezed in from left
wing to draw Elliott out. It was a
neat effort and Elliott had no chance.
Three minutes later Russ. Anderson
and Capstick combined to give Kin-
cardine a three goal margin on the
game. Anderson took the puck into
the corner and passed out in front
of the net. As Capstick went to
shoot Anderson carne in fast and
boils players poked it in. As the bell
went Griffith went through' on a lone
rush.
As soon as the puck was dropped
inthe second period Eddie Suther-
land burned one at•Elliott which was
cleared. Streets came back fast
but took a nose dive in 'the corner•.
With Riegle down Clinton missed
the open net and then on a return
rush by Kincardine -Eddie 'Sutherland

McEwan made a brilliant rush for
Cilnton and Riggin was called on to.
do the spectacular. Burrows and
Capstick came in fast with Burrows
carrying the puck. With Capstick
rear, in front of the net Burrows
lost`: to Kennedy. Capstick tripped
Gibbs and was waved to the jug.
Jack MacDonald gave Elliott a hard
shot Ito handle. Griffith used the
sharpend of the stick on Gibbs and
went off. Holmes came in fast and
shot from three feet out but Triggs»
was right on top of the peck and
cleared to the cornier. Giibbs took
a golf stroke at the puck and fanned,
getting quite a hand from .the crowd.
Capstick was outguessed by Elliott.
At eighteen minutes Gibbs got 'his
first goal of the gameand whittled
the lead down by one. Gibbs came
back, fast and went right in oh
Riggin. < When the play was called
by the referee Gibbs was behind Rig-
gin in the net but •the Kincardine
goalie had saved one again.
Kincardine got their three goal
lead back thirty seconds after the
opening of the third period. Suther-
land took the puck into the corner
and .passed out to Jack MacDonald
who netted. Clinton was resorting
to long shots in- an effort to take a
lead. The checking" Was close with
Sutherland running in 'circlets to
elle* attacks. 73urrows was sent off
for digging IVIeEwan's ribs and Wat-
ers followed far roughing .Sutherland.
Kincardine was sending four men up.
With five men up Streets scored the
Celts second ;'goal at the ten min-
ute mark. Clinton was turning it
on and had the second litre bottled up
in the corner. Munro, Sutherland
and MacDonald were sent out and
Sutherland took a shot. Griffith. was
Frit to the penalty Sox. The game
was now developing into something
'of a slugfest with all sorts of fancy
cuts being taken at the puck. Rig-
gin saved when he was forced to lie
on the puck. Pickett was in on him
before he ,could. •clear. Griffith and
Grihbs went off for hooking each oth-
er, Just before the final bell Pickett
tested Riggin again without 'success.,

All are looking forward to: a 'very
interesting debate under the auspices
of the Y. P. D. "Resolved that the
young people of to -day are better
citizens than they were fifty years
ago," which will take place at the
St. Patrick's Social, Friday, March
16th, under the W.A. of St. Andrew's
church.
The death occurred ab the County
Horne on Saturday evening of one of
Bayfield's .most respected citizens in
the person of Robert Melifurra,, who
because of failing health and inabil-
ity to care for himself was taken to
the home by his brother Orangemen
only a week ago. .In 1866 he came to
this country when a small boy front
the County Dawn, Ireland, with his
mother and sister, Mary, both of
whom predeceased hint. They were
brought out by Thomas Wells (who
lived on the farm now owned by Erni
est Pollock) with whom they lived for,
a number of years. Later, when Ro-
bert gvew to manhood, he 'tirade a
home for his mother in the village
and proved always a' devoted son. In'
connection with the Orange Order he.
became widely known and respected
throughout Ontario. Fifty years ago
he joined the Orange Lodge at. Varna
and when he moved to Bayfield he
transferred to L.O.L. No. 24 of which
he was Minster for fourteen years.
As long as health permitted he never
missed a Grand Orange Lodge Meet-
ing in Ontario. He had all the de-
grees both in the Orange Order ant:
that of the ;Black. Knights. It was he
who was responsible for the •organiz
ing of the Black Preceptory in Varna
in 1920 and was the first Preceptor.
Which office he held for three years.
He was later Weber of the .County
Black Chapter ef Huron. In his
younger days he was an activemem-
ber of Trinity Chureh. He also took` er by the: group in charge and a plea -
TO DEVELOP' A NATION'S RESOURCES
In 1842, followingrthe union of Upper and Lower Canada,
when the Bank opened a branch at Toronto to succeed
the agency there, and established offices in nine other
cities of Upper Canada, the Honourable 'Peter McGill,
rhea president of the Bank, explained why the directors
had .entered upon a policy of establishing .branches or
agencies in the then western province:
"The Legislature having conferred on the Bank important
privileges, and authorized the creation and employment of
a large capital, the Board, insteadof concentrating it all in.
the large cities, felt it to be their duty gradually to extend

such Films and in such localities as appeared to them best
calculated to encourage and assist thy agriculture and com-
merce of the country, to•develop its resources, and co pro-
mote the increase ofits exportable productions..."
Evert before the union of Upper,•and Lower Canada, the
Bank sought constantly to encourage those factors in
trade which would contribute effectively to the bp•
building of the country—a purpose which is as strong
today as ever.
