A PLEASANT A FAIR. -We inad-

a very pleasant evert which took place
at the residence of Mr. John Steet, in
Egmondville, on Wednesday. It was
the marriage of his only daughter,
Bessie, to Mr. L V. Fear, druggist, of
this town. The interesting ceremony
-was performed by Rev. Mr. McCoy, as-
sisted by Rev. Mr. Fear, brother of the
groom, in the presence of a goodly nim -
ben of the relatives and immediate
• friends of the contracting parties. The
bride was attended by Miss Lottie
Porter and Miss Jennie Hill, while
Messrs. George A. Fear, of Petrolea, and
S. A. White, of Seaforth, did the honors
• for the groom. The esteem in which
the bride is held was abundantly mani-
fested by the large number of beautiful
and costly presents of which she was
made the recipient, and which were
much and deservedly admired by the
guests. After partaking of dinner, the
company drove to the railway station to
take the afternoon train for the east.
They were here met by hosts of friends
from Seaforth and Egmondville, who came
•to extend their congratulations and
well -wishes to the ybung couple and see
them off an their honey -moon trip, the
first stage in their united journey
in life. They arrived home on Monday
last, and are occupying the comfortable
residence provided by Mr. Fear for his
bride, and have settled down to the
sterner realities of life with the bright-
, - eet hopes and best prospects for the
future. THE EXPOSITOR unites with
their many friends in wishing them a
lung, happy and useful life.

numbered nearly one hundred and fifty
persons, went to the residence of the

After all had done ample justice to the
good things, which could not have failed
to satisfy the wants of the most fastid-
ious epicure, the remainder of the even-
ing was spent in various amusements ill
which all heartily joined. The esteem
in which, the bride is held by her
many friends was exemplified by the
numerous and costly presents which she
received. The young couple have the
best wishes of the whole community for
their future happiness, as Mr. Wren is
a steady, industrious young man and he
has secured as a partner for life . one of
Chiselhurst's fairest daughters.

township of Hay, returned home on
Friday last, Inving visited during his
absence several of the leading stack -
farms in the vicinity of Hamilton, To-

around the Ontario Model Farm. His
principal object, in addition to enjoy-
ing a pleasant holiday, was to look
after some thorough bred stock. He
did not meet with anything to suit him
until he arrived at the fine stock farm
of Mr. John Hobson, of Mosborough, in
the County of Wellington. He says
Mr. Hobson has as fine a herd of
through breds as he saw on his travels.
He purehased from him a very superior
cow and a handsome bull calf, which he
got home this week. They are both
from the very best strains and will make
a valuable addition to Mr. McAllister's
already good herd. We hope he will
have success with them and that they
will prove the most profitable invest-
ment he ever made.

He loaded a ship with supplies
were mostly needed by American troone•
and helped them with the prestige of
his name, with scanty military experis

but clothed and fed them, and when his
own means were exhausted he appealed
to the generosity of others. When the
ladies of Balthsiore proposed to give &
ball to the gallant Frenchman he said ts.
them : "Ladies, I should be delighted
to dance with you, but my soldiers haVe
no shirts." The ball was postponea,
and the belles of Baltimore made shirts
for the soldiers. -Philadelphia Record.
