The celebration of the Gunpowder
Plot was coaamemorated in this village
on Saturday last. The day was any-
thing but agreeable, rain having fallen
teem .bout nine in the morning until
seven in the evening. But notwith-
standing the inclement state of the.
weather and the disagreeable condition
of;; the roads, a large number were pres-
ent to do honor on this occasion, repre-
sentatives coming from Ethel, Brns-
set, Winthrop, Leadbury and sur-
rounding communities. The dinner
given in the basement of St. George's
Church deserves much praise and re-
flects to no small degree a.large amount
of credit mien the ladies of this congre- -
getion for the excellent manner in which
this dinner was got up. . Dinner was
served from twelve until half past
three.
In the evening an entertainment was
held in the above named church, when
a very pleasant time was spent. At
the opening of the business the choir
sang "The Church's One Foundation,"
Miss Annie Sage` presiding very effi-
ciently at -the organ.' The Rev. Mr.
Ryan then engaged in prayer, after
which Mr. James Young, of Brussels,
District Ma9ter, was called to the
chair, which position he filled to the
entire satisfaction of all present.
The first speaker called upon was the
Rev. Mr. Baugh, of Walton, who gave
an able address on the subject, "Mardi -
nese and aid in the affair. The Dox -
nese." He said that manliness con- olo was' then sungand the benedic-
listed not in fanaticism ; that where tio�ronoanced by Rev. Mr. Omura,
tue manliness prevailed, fanaticism p

was not to be found. Here the speaker homes, seemingly well satisfied with
adduced a number of examples which what they had heard
contrasted the two terms, making the
whole matter so clear that - even the
most unlearned might at once note the
'difference. He next said that • manli-
ness did not consist in cowardice. (But

a feast. He spokeepointedly a4d well
on the object held in view when com-
memorating the 5th of November,
clearly shoving that it was not to cele-
brate the overthrow of Roman ° Catho-
licism by Protestants, but to celebrate
the grand and glorious victory of light
over darkness. •
Mr. J. Armsttong, of Brussels, then
played.an instrumental piebe of music,
which was well received.
Mr. H. McFadzean was the next to
take the platform. He advanced a few
appropriate thoughts regarding the
Gunpowder Plot and the propriety of
commemorating:such -a glorious event.
Miss Alice Hewitt then sang a Bolo,
"Song of Heaven."
Miss Ronald, of Brussels, was again
called upon for a song, and sang
"Barney O'Hea." All appeared to be
revived after hearing this song, and -
many were heard to say that they never
listened to a better singer.
Mr. M. Morrison was uext called
upon and gave an account of the. time
• when the Walton Orange Lodge was
first organized and its prosperity up to
the present.
Miss Williams then sang a solo en-
titled "From the - Valley." This she
sungnin such a ' manner as to reflect
much credit upon her as a vocalist.

—An action was taken out by Cath-
arine Ann Scott, wife of Dr. Scott, of
Saugeen, and niece of the late Miss
Barbara Scott, through her counsel,
against the Trafalgar Institute, of Mon-
treal, for $2;000. Plaintiff was a
special legatee under the will of Anu -
Scott, who died in 1872, leaving all her
property to her sister Barbara during
the latter's lifetime, and at her death
to the Trafalgar Institute as universal
legatee, with the exception of $2,000 as
a special legacy to her niece, the plain-
tiff. The estate being npw somewhat
complicated, the plaintiff takes action
against the Trafalgar Institute, whom
she holds liable as universal legatee for
the payment of her special legacy.
—In the year 1849 there died in
Ancaster township, at the residence of
his son-in-law, W. Ashmore, Duncan
Matheson, in the 67th year of his age.
The old gentleman had for years - been 8
missionary in ,Scotland and England,
and came to this country to spend the
last days of a busy life. He left three
daughters—Mrs. Ashmore, of Ancaster,
Mrs. C. Elliott of Taunton, Massachu-
setts, and Mrs. Harding of Providence,
Rhode Island. These ladies recently
met for the first time in forty years and
decided to erect a monument over their
father's grave. A splendid shaft with
suitable inscription, and the arms of
the Matheson clan cut thereon, has been
prepared.

draughtsman from either Montreal or
Liverpool, as best suits him, a member'
of the Montreal Young Men's Christian
Association, `and that he has just beets
appointed head draughtsman at the
Great Western Railway. He carries a
pocket Bible, quotes Scripture,- and
then tries to borrow $15 to enable him
to get his trunk and tools out of bond-
age at Toronto. As he victimized a
member of tb.e Christian Church in
Hamilton, he will probably pay special
attention to the brethren in other
places.
