DIED ,IN MANITOBA. -Many of the__ older to
readers of THE EXPOSITOR will regret to
learn of the death in Manitobae of Mr. Wm.
Angus. Mr. Angus was for many years_ a
resident .of the township, of Tuckersmith. •
He worked as a carpenter and framer here,
and there aim still many houses and barns
in this vicinity which were nonstructed by
him. He removed to Manitoba about nine
years ago, and settled at Sudburn, where
his sons -Who had preceded him to that
country, lied taken up farms. He also en- wo
aged in f truing there, and was doing well., led
,
e bad o ly been ill for about ten days.. ive
He was a honest, --industrious man, and bro
was highld esteemed in this community, jus
where belied resided for many years, and
was equally respected in his Western home,
and his demise will be sincerely regretted
by a large circle -of friends both here and
there. He leaves behind. Mtn a. widow and

THE NEW Tows 33ELL. -The new town
bell has.been.put in place in. the tower of
the town building, and was tang for' the
first time on Tuesday. • Thebell was manu-
factured by Mennely & Company, of West
Troy, New York, and weighs. 1,500 pounds.
Ori it is inscribed the mines of Mayor Gray,
Reeve Gunn, and the members of the- fire
and water coeronittee-Meesrs. James Gil-
lespie; J. S. &hefts, J. Gd Wilson and R.
Winter. The bell will be rung at 6 o'clock
in the morning, as well as at the houre at
which it has been customary to ring the bell
formerly. The work of putting it in place
was done by . Mr: P. K.eating. It is not
quite as heavy as the one in St. James'

Lindsay., froin near Ethel, who was driving'
ie. the opposite direction. Some misunder-
standing seemed to exist between the par-
ties as to which side of the road they were
going -to turn, and the result was that the
two horses came together.- The shaft of
Mr. MeClymont's buggy ran- into the breast
of Mr. Lindsay's horse, penetrating it sevi
eral inches, •and it is a wonder ,that the
animal was not killed. Besides the drivers,
each rig contained two ladies, but they es-
caped injury. Drivers should be more care-
ful on Main street, particularly on Saturday
nights when there are so many rigs about,
and they should Jae sure to keep to the right
side al far as possible.

A SMALL Slimy CveannE.-A heavy wind
storm, which almost mounted to a cyalonet
passed over this neighborhood on Sunday
-afternoon last. Throagh the town and
coantry a number of trees were blown down
. and fences leveled. The moat serious dam,
age we have heard of was the ahnost total
wreck of a barn on the farM of Mr. Charles -
Dickson of McKillop. Mr. Dickson had
the buithing raised up, and had it enlarged,
and everything ready to put m stohe founda-
tion under it. It was, consequently, not in
very good shape to withstand a etrong
wind, particularly one of each velocity as
that of Sunday. The wiad raised it off the
stakes and hurled it to the ground, wreck-
ing it badly. The loss win he a heavy one
oue for Mr, Dickson.
• —
REWARDED AT LAST. -A just - and well
earned reward is acceptable, even if long
deferred, and we have no doubt that such
will be the reeult in the cese of Mr. C. M.
Dunlop, of this town, who is richer by $100
since the recent' meeting of the county
council. In 1879, Mr. Dunlop arrested a
man for horse stealing and the fellow was
subsegnently convicted before the late Judge
Toms and duly sentenced. At that time
there was a eounty by-law offering a reward
of $100 on the apprehension and conviction
of a horse thief, providiiig the applicant for
the reward have an order from the judge
who sat, on the case. Under this law Mr.
Dunlop was entitled to the reward, but
leaving the country shortly afterward, the
matter slipped his memory until on his re -
urn some years later, he waz looking over

DOINGS. -The regular meeting
of council was held on Monday evening.
The sum of $1,000 was placed to the credit
of the public school board. By-law No. 5,
for street watering purposes, was finally
passed. Wm. Campbell was granted per-
mission to occupy a portion of Goderich
street for storing material during building
operations ae his store. A by-law authoriz-
ing the council to lay down granolithic side-
walk, provided the property enwners pay
one third of the cost, the time fanipayment
to be extended over • five years, was
passed. The council approved of the action
of the street committee in placing the Sides
wilke outside of the trees, and the commit-
tee were empowered to so place any side-
walks that they deemed advisable. An ad-
ditional grant of $80 was made to the band,
for the purpose of purchasing instruments.
Accounts to the amount of $538.68 were
passed for payment. Councillors Scott and
Cluff were appointed a delegation to • go to
Hamilton to inspect, Copp -Bros.' stone
crusher, and to report at the next meeting
of council. Bro dfoo & Box proposed to
pay eine hundred and seventy-three dollars
monthly, in settlemen of the loan got from
the town. , This prop eition was left in the
hands of the committee appointed for that
purpose, to deal with the proposition as
they deem best in the interests of the town.
