GRAND OLD MAN PASSES
The Calgary Herald pays the fol-
lowing high tribute to the late Rev.
Edward Cragg, father of Rev. C. E.
Cragg of Wingharn:
"Speaking in terms of the highest
praise for the work and personality
of the late Rev. Edward Cragg, min-
isters from nearly every denomina
ion paid .their final tribute to the aged
gentleman at the funeral services in
Wesley Methodist church on Monday
afternoon. "This is not a family sor-
row," said Rev.. H. H. Bingham, pas-
tor of First Baptist church, in refer-
ring to the death of Rev. Mr. Cragg;
"rt is not a church sorrow, but itis
a civic sorrow; he wielded 'far more
influence than any other man I
know, and in the Rotary club, for
whom I speak as their minister mem-
ber, no man was,.loved more dearly.
Rev. Mr. Coulter also voiced this
thought when he referred to Rev.
Mr. Cragg as a father who belonged
to more than one family and more
than one church, He mentioned the
fact that Rev. Mr. Cragg had told
him that during the first nipety years
of his life he had practically known
no physical ailment. Rev. Mr. Coul-
ter said that the deceased had lived,
the most free, life he had ever :known,
and that he had always been full of
optimism, and that one could not en-
ter into his presence without receiv-
ing inspiration.
Rev. J F. Knight, pastor of Wes-
ley Methodist church, ;said ` that it
would be impossible for him to esti-
mate the depth of his obligation to
Rev. Mr. Cragg for the help and in-
spiration he had received during the
time they had been together in Wes-
ley church. Rev. Mr. Knight read
telegrams from Rev. Dr. Bland, Rev.
Mn Farrell and Rev. Dr. Tuttle, who
expressed their regret at not being
able to be present, and manifest their
sympathy for the bereaved family in
their deep but triumphant sorrow.
Rev. A, Rannie, moderator of the
Alberta Presbyterian Synod, spoke of
Rev. Mr. Cragg as the most remark-
able man he had ever known, and told.
of hearing him preach a sermon 22
years ago in Ontario, with such ef-
fect that the text remained clearly in
his mind ever since. Rev. Mr. Rannie
said that Rev. Mr. Cragg had been
one of the few elderly people who did
not see the golden age in the past,
but rather voiced the opinion that the
present was more, wonderful than the
past, and that more glorious times
were still to come.
Special hymns, recognized as fav-
orites of the aged gentleman, were
sung, and Wesley choir, under the di-
rection of Dr. Rogers, sang "Rock of
Ages," set to his favorite music. The
service was conducted by, Rev, Mr,
Hollingworth, assisted by Rev. Mr.
Knight .r
nibht acid other. speakers, Rev. Can-
on James, of St. Stephen's Church,
was called upon to lead a prayer.
The front of the platform and the
casket were piled high with floral
tributes, The retnains were taken
from the church to the family plot in
the Union cemetery.' The pall bear-
ers were Rev. Chas, A. Sykes Rev.
Robert Pearson, Rev. J. F. Knight,
Itev,' jos. Coulter, Rev. E. T. Seragg,
and Rev. Geo. Driver,

the death of an old Wroxeter resi-
dent in the person of Mr. Thos. Walk-
er, of town, who died at his home in
London on Saturday. The late Mr.
Walker was a school teacher by pro-
fession but of late years was engaged
in. market " gardening. Mr. Thos.
Wacker and Mr. and Mrs. John Gem-
mill left on Tuesday to attend the
funeral.
On Monday the sad news reached
Wroxeter of the death, at Blyth, of
one of our most highly respected
citizens in the person of 'Mr. John
Henderson. Mr. and Mrs. Hender-
son went to Blyth on a visit to friends
about five weeks ago. Mr. Henderson
who has been • in failinghealth for
soine time, was taken ill and gradually
sank until the end came about eight
o'clock on Monday morning. He
leaves to mourn his loss his widow
and one brother, Thomas, of town,
The bereaved have the sincere sym-
pathy of the whole community.
The opening of the new Industrial
building on Friday evening last, al-
though not as largely attended as it
should have been, was a decided suc-
cess. A sumptuous supper was serv-
ed by the ladies of the -village to
which all did ample justice. . After
the supper Reeve Douglas introduced
the program which consisted of music
by Town's Orchestra -an organization
of which the people of Wroxeter are
justly proud, trios by Messrs. Gibson,
Ritchie and Kitchen and a solo by
Mrs, Geo. Allen. Able and instruc-
tive addresses were given by Rev. Dr.
Brown, Rev. Mr. Perrin and John
King, M. P. for North Huron. Mr.
King confined .his remarks principally
to the Banking question and as he
was a member of the Banking Com-
mittee of the House of Commons he
was able to give first hand informa-
tion.
nformation. Mr. King's address, coming as
it did, when banks are merging and
others going to the wall, was well
worth the price of admission. Over
$15o was taken at the door.
