The St. Cather- Ines Standard sayts:' "Harold Spencer Holmes, former principal of the Edith Cavell School, passed away last evening at the Gen- eral ,Hospital. Mr: Holmes had been in poor health for several years and had been confined to the hospital', since the early part of January.He was the only son of the Rev. and Mrs. H,ohtnes, of 50 Abbert S't'reet, and had resided with his parents. He was horn" at Leam'ington,. Ontario, ' and was in his 32nd year, l•Ir, Holmes cantle to St, . Catharines eight years ago and while in good health had taken part in : numerous activities in the city. He was an ardent member of St, George's Church and was con- nected with the Anglican Young Peo ple's Association and other organiza- tions in the church. He wasalso a member of Maple (Leaf Lodge No, 103 A F. and A M., and of the Y's Men Club of. the Ye al. C. A. Failing health foneed him to give up the profession of teaching about two years ago. He is survived by his parentsand one sister; M'rs. J. A. 'Munn, of Seaforth., Ontario. The funeral service was held at St, George's Church at eight o'clock on Saturday evening from the family residence. Interment. took place on Sunday afternoon at Maple Leaf Cemetery, Chatham, Ont;" • BAD FLOOD. The ,worst flood in Seaforth in twen- ty-(five'years occurred during the',past week when the southwest corner of the town, along the railway, became covered with :water. The Peterson and, Allen families had to move from their houses near Market street, and few cellars south of John street escaped Hooding, in many cases making it 1111- possible npossible to keep furnaces going: • At the end 05 Jarvis street, a continuous sheet of water extended west .from the pavement to far beyond the town li- mits. The new bowling green was also under several inches of water, The cause of at least Dart of the trouble seems to have been where the Main street sewer crosses under the railway'tracks, A wooden boxing at the end of the metal culvert gave way causing a cave-in under the wig -wag warning sign ,last Wednesday, and blocking the sewer, which is almost 9 feetbelow the surface at that spot, The wig -wag has been moved to the north side of the tracks and repairs are being made to the sewer. The heaviest loser as a result of the flood is Mr. W. D. Hoag, whose 39 hives of bees were all drowned, mak- ing a loss of $195. • One morning the water was so deep around the hives it was irrepo'ssibtc t0 move then and during the next night the water rose again, completely covenfng them. Mr, Hoag had intended 10 give up bee- keeping owing to his health', and had made arrangements to sell them to a IWSngham lady. However the final bargain was not quite completed. C. W. L. Under the auspices' of the Catholic Women's League of St. James' parish a pleasant evening was held in the parish hall on Monday, A few games' of progressive euchre were . played, after which a shbrt programme was given, consisting of a reading by Mas- ter Tom. Nolan, solos by Mrs. Leo Fortene,•-Mr. •Chas. Stewart, and com- munity singing, A play entitled. "Do Mee Gossip," was given by six.yc'ung people of the parish, MissAlice Daly, :Masters s s Gordon .Reynolds, Basil Dun- can, Eugene Duncan, George Daly antd Frank Devereaux, each taking part in a manner t8at delighted the audience. ' 'he singing, of. 0 Canada olid God'Save the Kling, brought a very enjoyable'evening to a close. Mrs. Devereaux presided atthe piano, Violin, Eugene Duncan, THOMAS E. HAYS On Thursday night, March 14th, 1929, the death occurred of one whose. life has been interwoven in the his- tory of Huron 'County for • nearly a century, in the person of Mr, 'Thomas E. Hays, aged 90 years and 3 months. During the past few years he was in. failing health owing to his great age and was cared for by his daughter, Mrs. J. '15 Govenlock, but until re- cently had been able to be up and around and had made regular trips, in company with 'Mr. 'Govenlock, to his .old farm, at Roxboro. •Born at Haysville, Waterloo Coun- ty (which was named after 'his father, Robert Hays) he canine to .McKillop as a young lad and the family settled on lots 2.8 and 29, 3rd concession, The .Maitland Bank Cemetery is now lo- cated on part of . this 'farm: The house which stands on the home- stead was the first stone• house built in this district, settlers coning many miles to see it. lir. Hays continued to reside there until' retiring to Sea- 'forth about twenty.ifive years ago. In 11863 he was united in marriage r ;VJanetHenderson of 1LcKf1- to bliss lop, who died in 1'870. Test years la- ter he married Miss Elsie Scott, daughter • of Robert Scott 0•f Rox- boro, who predeceased him nine years ago last December, 'To the first on- ion two sons and one daughter 'were horn: John (deceased), Nelson, of New York; Mrs. J, 1M, Govenlock, of Seaforth, and to the second union, two sons and one daughter: Scott ('killed overseas); William T,, of Eg- erton, Alta., and Mrs. E.

Bays was elected Reeve in thefollowing •ears he was re - and Y acclamation, bin Wardell turned by a n, e g W. of the County of Huron in 11829. The .occupants of'the .various offices of the township for 11879' were: Reeve, T. E. Trays ;• deputy -reeve, Alex: Kerr; cottncill'ors(, Messrs, Evans, Grieve, and holland, Clerk, John O'Sullivan; treasurer, . Solomon ' Sltamnonn; asses- sor, Donald 'Mc'Gregor; collector, John C. Morrison. Mr, Hays con- tinued as reeve until 1881. Thomas E. Hayswas the last sur- viving charter member of the Mc- Killop Mutual Fire Insurance Com- pant and was a director of that con - r panty for 4'7/ years. In 1900 he suc- ceeded 1W. 3. Shannon as secretary and held the position until retiring in. 1923.. In politics he was a Con- servative and he contested the old riding of E'ast'Huron, losing by very close margins, against Mr, Gibson in the Provincial field and against John' McMillan in the Federal fid Schoolool matters were also among hisinterests and he was a trustee of SS, No, 2 at the time the school house was re- moved toits present site: Fora num- ber of years he -was treasurer"of the Seaforth Agricultur T Society and af- ter retiring from the farm he was Mayor of Seaforth in 1908. The fol- lowing sketch of his 'father's life is from an old atlas of Huron county: if "Robert Hays,deceased,late Done- gal, was born t County ne gal, Ireland, in 1795, and at the age of about thirty Years emigrated to Rochester, N.Y, where he retrained five years. Ar the end of that time n •Ingersoll, Canada, he re novel to Ca da, and four years later changed his residence to Waterloo County, where 'he em- barked in the grist and saw mill busi- ness, at a place which subsequently grew to be a village and was given the name of. Hays•ville. in 1842 Mr, Hays settled in Mc'Killop, where he r assumed mhunicipal ono s, and af- terwards served twelve years as Reeve of that township, being: elected each time by acclamation, and six years as Township Treasurer. It is almost' superfluous to add that he oc- cupied an exalted place in the esteem and confidence of all who knew him —a place which he retained till the time of his death a few years since." The funeral, which was very large- ly attended, was held on Monday af- ternoon from his late residence, East William street, Rev. Mr. Koine offic- iating.

DIVISION COURT A case of very considerable interest was tried.at the last sitting of Divi- sion Court and the jury found a ver- dict in favor of the plaintiff against one of the defendants.e Th action arose out of the delivery by the de- fendants of clover seed to the plain- tiff.
