His death was caused' by the bursting of a blood vessel in the head. During the •after- noon of Tuesday lie complained;of a severe pain in the back of his neck but went about his work as usual and at tea time was feeling much better. Shortly after the was taken su'ddenly ill, .suffering extreme pain in the head followed by !c'on'vulsions which result- ed in his death shortly after 10 p.m. The deceased who was in his '52nd year was a 'life long resident ,of this vicinity and was brought up' 00 the farm on ,which his death Occurred.

J'olmnsiton cele- brated their Golden wedding on Tues- day last when a number of their rela- tives and several ,members Of 't'he ily assembled at their home on Gode- rich 'Street East to do honor to the occasion. 'Two children, Mrs. Mat- thew ,Beattie of British Columbia, and Mrs, Wm. Lockhart, o'f M'cICillop, were unable to be present, the latter owing to illenss. The Igueslts arrived during the afternoon and at six;o''dock a fowl supper was served, after which the evening was pleasantly 'spent.

Alderman Injured. The London Free Press o'f .Saturday says: "The many friends of Ald. Wan, Scarlett will be grieved to know thPat he has been confined to his house' since the latter part 'of last week, suf- fering from injuries sustained 'by a fall at the Michigan Central station. He was hurrying to 'catch a train, and it being after dark and the eastern enkl 'of the platform badly lighted, he tripped on the sidewalk and fell very heavily, badly lacerating his knee and otherwise receiving a general s'h'aking up." Mr. 'Scarlett has many friends in :Seaforth and vi'cin'ity who will regret to hear of the accident. Dublin. Penn., visited last week with her rel- atives in and around Hensall. Municipal nomination's will take place here on Monday evening next in the town hall and with Jas. A. Pater- son, village clerk, as presiding officer. Nominations will he received for the reeves*, council, 3 schdol trustees and member for 'the public utilities. It is very, likely a contest will take place (for the reeveship as there are several aspirants for the office, including the present reeve, Mr. Geiger. In times like these, Hensall has no great reason to complain. The taxes have been paid to about the same as usual for this time of year and we have no one on relief. Our municipal debentures are being paid when due and next year should see a substantial reduction in the tax rate as there will be no more levies for the cement road, and al- though we hear of some other places in the county being in splendid finan- cial condition, Hensall has a great deal to show for the money spent and outside of our school debentures our municipal debt isvery small. ant! in 1933 we should have again the lowest tax rate in the county.

This is a good ,work and we all should help them rand help to relieve the suffering in our 'larger centres. Kippen Depot to Close.-IIt is very regrettable indeed to learn that our CJN.IR. depot will be closed Dec. 311's't, 4193'2. This station has been one of the familiar landmarks of this commun- ity for nearly sixty years, having ,been built, we believe, shortly after' the old Grand 'Trunk was first 'pu't *rough Huron county. Not only are we go- ing to feel sorry to see it close andto suffer the inconvenience Of going else- where if a ticket is required, but we will be sorry to lase "Bruce" as our agent, as he is familiarily called by all. Mr. Field is an open-minded man, a splendid agent, a friend to everyone and will be missed in social life as 'well as business. It is nine years since ;Mir, !Field and family moved into our midst, coming here''fmom H'arris'burg. We believe Mr. Field is fortunate in that he has another job amid intends moving s'h'ortly after tie new year. M'rs. Field, too, and lam!ily will leave a very warm spot in the 'hearts of us all and we trust they will always re- turn to visit us. What 'will be our lass will be some one ele's-gain and we wish him great success whenever he may he pl'a'ced.
