A Si 11 DEATIL —The Post of last week
says: The people of Bruseels wereehock-
ed last Wednesday morning over the re-
port that Thomas Hall, sr., hail been
found dead, by George Love, hanging
on his front gate at his little home on
Thomas street. Medical attendance was
quickly to hand but the vital spark had
fled, and all that could be done ,was tol
prepare the remains for burial. The
particelars of the case, as far as they
can be ascertained, are as follows: The
old gentleman had been butehering a pig
on Tuesday, and had taken a short chain
off the front gate, used with a weight for
pulling it shut, to hang up• the large
kettle. After the day's work he retired
to rest, but did not sleep very well, as
he was bothered with rheumatism. On
Wednesday morning he rose aausual,
and after feeding his cows took the
chain referred to and went to fasten it
on the gate. He conversed with his
neighbor, James Oliver, as the latter
was passing on the street, and was ap-
parently in good health. It is supposed
that while.arranging the chain he took a
fainting spell and fell forward on the
gate, his neck dropping between two
pickets. The gate swung .open, and in
th,is position he was found with his knees
nearly resting on the ground. His face
was not discolored nor were there any
marks on the neck. He had been no-
ticed at the gate for 10 or 20 minutes by
Mrs. Plumb and Mrs. A. Gerry, and he
could not have been in this position long.
As might be expected his aged partner
feels the blciw very -keenly, yet with that
spirit of resignation worthy of an old
soldier of Christ, she takes it from her
Father's hand. The deceased was born
in Yorkshire, England, in 1810, or there- I
abouts, seal came to America over 40
years ago'Ited after a sojourn in Penn-
sylvania he settled in Huron ecennty.
About 28 years ago he took up land on,
the 12th concession of Grey, aucl was
married to his now bereft partner, by
Rev. Mr. Crane. When old age in-
capacitated him from tilling the sail he
bought an acre of land in town, and
moved on to it 11 ,years ago.' In 18771
the old gentleman went to England on a
visit to his old home, but did not stay
verylong. Father Hall was a little eccen-
tric but a more zealous, God-fearing and
God -honoring worker is hard to find in
the Master's vineyard. In the 'earlier
years of Methodism in this section he
travelled over a large tract of country
in delivering his • practical addresses ,on
the- old plan of salvation. Many are
the people, young and old, who owe
much to Father Hail's prayers encl sea-
sonable advice, and although filling what
might be called an humble sphere in
life, we believe his crown will have many
stars. He was a faithful attendant at
his ;post at a local preacher and. class -
leader, and never failed to embrace every
cpportimity of givg his teetimotiy as to
God's way of saving sinners, and telling
of his conversion. He will be greatly
missed' bet his life will leave many
pleasant and '-hallowed memories to
those who knew him. The deceased won
the respect and esteem of everybody.
