Dashwood Death.—The death took
place in Dashwood on Friday of Ig-
natius "Ned"Weltin in his 77th year
after an illness of three weeks. The
deceased man. was a well known im-
plement dealer in Dashwood. He had
been married to Levina Dietrich who
predeceased him 17 years ago., He is
survived by a daughter, Mrs. Rosen-
dahl, of Dashwood, and two sons,
Ed. \Veltin of Zurich and Albert Of

Get Reformatory Term—Clark Wii-
son and William Fisher, Komoka
young men, were Thursday afternoon
sentenced by Judge Costello to six
months each in Ontario reformatory
having been found guilty on a charge
of theft. Before sentence- was. passed
Crown Attorney Holmes told the
court that each of the accused had a
criminal record. Fisher, he said, had
done time for breaking, entering and
theft at Niagara Falls in 1929, and for
obstructing a London' police officer in
1930. Wilson also was convicted at
London fdr breaking, entering and
.theft and for forgery, He was given
suspended sentence both tines. Frank
Donnelly, defence counsel, asked that
accused be not transferred to the re-
foranatory until the influenza epide-
mic, which he said enlisted, had sub-
sided. His Honor promised considera-
tion. Wilson and Fisher stole thresh-
ing belts .valued at over $100 from the
machine of Edward Piollen at Farqu-
har on Fob. 20. On Feb. 22 they sold
the belts to William E. Mills, London
second hind dealer, for $35. Mills'
action in taking their car number, led
to their arrest on Feb. 28. Mills said
his suslpicion was aroused by ,the speed
with which the young men made their
exit after receiving the $35 for the
'belts. He followed them out to the
curb and got the number, which he
marked in his register.
Fire in Goderich Twp.--tFire of un-
determined origin completely destroy-
ed the residence of Charles Co'aper,
9th concession of Goderich to'w'nship
on Thursday afternoon, There was
no person home when the fire broke
out. Mrs. Cooper is ill in Clinton
hospital and Mr. Cooper was calling
'there during the afternoon. About 4
o'clock .Mr. Steep, whose farm is
directly across the road, saw smoke
rising from the interior of the dwell-
ing and summoning other neighbors
by phone hurried across. With their
united efforts some of the contents of
'the lower storey were saved. The fire
shad gained' such headway, however,
that' the greater portion Of the down -
Stair contents and all of those up-
stairs fell prey to the flames. It is
'thought an overheated smoke flit or
,defective ehimney may have been re-
sponsible. Mr. and Mrs. ,Cooper are
a young married couple. Their farm
is the Cooper homestead. The loss is
partially covered by insurance.

Declines to Accept Cheque: Com-
,niittee pay sheets of the county coun-
eil for 193!2 disclose' that some coun-
cillors are accepting double mileage in
direct contravention to a bylaw pass
ed at the January "economy session"
which clearly stipulates that mileage
1(110.c) shall be paid, one way only.
(Reeve Jack MclNabb of Grey, leading
economist, and his.fellow members of
.the house of refuge committee, are
offenders. It was Reeve MoNab who
insisted on salary cuts and other re-
ductions last January. Reeve 'William
•Sweitzer of Stephen township has re-
turned his pay cheque for the house
of refuge committee meeting held at
Clinton off -March 1st. The Reeve
writes: "D'ear Sir,—I ani enclosing
cheque for $10.90 for attending house
of refuge meeting at Clinton. The
cheque is not right according to by-
law passed in January last. We were
to have mileage one Way only, which
would make my cheque $770 instead
of $10.90 on $4:50 per day and $3.20
mileage.-1\Villiam H. Stvettzer." The
committee pay sheet discloses that all
members took double mileage. The
document, duly signed by various
members, is: John \M'd\Tab (chairman)
$1'0; W. J. Stewart, $S, 4V. H. Sweitz-
er $10:90, James Ballantyne $9.50, .1
