We learned of the newsT sur n sad Thurs..' day morning of the passing away of a very highly respected citizen in the person of Mrs. Ralph Nixon Sr., near Belfast, at the age of 73 years. Mrs. Nixon had been in poor health for two years and had lost the sight of both eyes lately. She was a faithful member of Hackett's United Church, a member of the W.M.S.' and for many years taught a Sunday School class. She leaves to mourn her, her aged husband, who celebrated his 94th birthday on April 5th; five daughters, three in the 'West, Mrs. John Em- erson, near Kinlough and Mrs. Victor Whitley, near Crewe, and four sons, George and Will in the West, Ralph' and Isaac at home.

YEARS (Continued from page 1.) built the church which was replaced by the present United Church. The building 'was later taken down and rebuilt at the creamery. There were four blacksmith shops. One west of the United Church own- ed by Geo. Duncan, one where John Hockeridge's stable stands, owned by Jos.. Brookbank, one on the Sander- son lot owned by Ephriam Hill who was followed by McClymont, Nixon, Wasman and Davidson. The remain- ing one by F. B. Scott who was suc- ceeded by F. Selling. • There were two wagon shops, one where H. Bosman lives, owned by Webster Ennis, one where R. Garniss lives, owned by Ed. Tindall. While Nixon was owner of the wagon shop and the blacksmith shop they were both burned down the same night. There were three tailor shops, one on the Jas. Gannett pro- perty by Jas. Piper, one where 'the Presbyterian Church stands, by C. Stewart, and one on the Thomas pro- perty by Wm. Gray, who was follow- ed by C. Brinker. There were five shoemaker's shops: one by Alex. Bruce, afterward by Wm. Sanderson, in. the Sanderson house; one by R. F. Sibbald, in the house now owned by Olive Scott; one by Jas. Buchanan in a small building immediately south of the post office; it was burned down with Cantelon's store; one in a build- ing where P. King's house stands. I don't remember the name of the man who had this shop. The other was in a house north of where I live, run by Jas. Watson. Jos. Billingsly, a watch -maker, occupied this house af- ter Watson. There were two sawmills, the first one was built on the south side of the river by W. H. and Jos. Leech. There was a division in the mill, wheat be- ing ground into flour on the north side, with Chas. Herbert first miller. Flour was made there until the pre sent mill was built. The contractors who built the present mill were Alex. • and Sam Magee and Jas. Wamsley. It was built of heavy timbers for which block and tackle • were used in erect- ing. This mill was once rented to C.,' Sherriff and once to John Johns, af- terwards sold to T. Nixon who failed so it fell back to Jos, Leech. It was then purchased by Duff and Stewart who built the cement dain at a cost of fourteen hundred dollars, besides being given considerable gratis work drawing material. Referring bank to the mill which was divided, in the south side logs were sawn into lum ber with an up and down saw. 'On accounts of the way the logs were held on the carriage the lumber could not be cut off clean but left a stub shot three or fotir inches on the end of each board. This saw was -after- wards ..replaced by a circular. The head sawyers were P. Brown, Craw- ford, C. Brown and lastly myself. When 1 started I was eighteen years of age the mill was being run night' and day, 1 gotup at midnight • and worked until noon.'Then the other gang came on and worked until mid- night, This was done for two seasons to take advantage of the Iigh water. One season the other' sawyer was Thos, Hiugston and the other season, Thos. Johnston, The other sawmill was built near the ' Station by Bailey and Tltyiine. Following there were Bailey and Reading,. then Reading and Duff, then Duff and Stewart After running the two mills for two seasons the tnach- ASHAMED OF HER FIGURE Husband Persuaded Her To Take Kruschen By following her, husbancl''s advice, this v oinan made a tremendous im- provement in, her appearance -she ac - wally took off 32 lbs, of her excess fat, Telling of her experience, she writes:— "A rites:—"A year ago I was troubled with rheumatism, nervousness and other complaints. And 1 got •so fat that I was ashamed of my figure. I was per- suaded by my husband to take Krus- chen Salts. Before I began, I weigh- ed 161 lbs. After taking Kruschen for a short tittle the .rheumatism was less painful, nt Y nervesgot stronger, er1 ai c my step lighter, Then I knew that Kruschen was doing the good, so I perservered with it and got my weight down to 129 lbs., a reduction of 32 lbs. of unwanted fat.

It was also burned down, it being the second loss sustained by Duff and Stewart, who were in the mill business for twenty- seven years. There was a carding trill built by a company, Thynne, Stewart and Sheriff for carding wool into rolls to be later sppn into yarn.

Cousins.- This was on the Kerney property. an Tr on 1VIy father operated asl e y the bank of the mill pond, making. pearl ash, the process of which was, putting ashes into four or five large cisterns,thenputting water on to run.. off the lye. The lye was then put in- to large coolers to boil until it be- came thick, and was called black salts. This was then put into a large oven and had to be kept moving with a long -handled scraper Until finished, when it was as white as snow. There were•four hotels, one on the lot where. the Presbyterian Manse stands. 'The first occupant I can re- member was H. C. Pugh After him were, Wade, Johnston, McDonald, Putland, Stowe, Maguire, Esty, Cook, Salts, Conover and Johnston, It was burned down about the time local op- tion was being talked of. The next hotel was immediately north of where the Presbyterian Church stands. It was built and run by Chas, Wamsley; after him by Johnston, McDonald, Buchanan, Conover, Ross. With local option likely to come in force it was burned down along with shed and stable. One hotel in the building now used by Mrs. Duff as a store room, was run by John Edwards. The oth- er hotel was built near the station by Jas. Henderson. After him it was Tun by Thos. Oliver, then by Conover. The building was later moved to the Henderson farm. Thos.
