PATRICK.—Many of our readers will regret to learn of the deathof Mrs, Montgomery Patriok, of the 7th con- cession of Tuokeremith, which took place on Monday jest. Mrs. Patrick's maiden name was Rachel -Nichol. She was a daughter of Mr. Alexander Nichol, and for several 'years was a resident of Seaforth, although a native of Tuokersmith. She was not quite 27 years Of age and had been married only about a yeer and, a half. She was a bright, intelligent young'woman and was an active church and Sabbath school worker, and was greatly beloved by all who enjoyed the privilege of her acquaintance. The sip- cerest sympathy Of all will be extended to the bereaved father, husband and friends, She leaves no children. . . 1--...- - DIED IN Daticare.--The following, whioh we take from the Buffalo Express of Febru- ary 21st, published in Cass county, North Dakota, refers to a little grandson of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Scott, of MoKillop, near : Leadbury : " On Thursday, February 14th, Wm. Aylmer Soott, the eldest child of Mr: and Mrs. James Scott, passed peace- fully away at the Scott home, two and a half miles northwest of Buffalo. The death of little Willie came as a great shook -to all , who knew him, as he was not known to be seriously ille The serious phase of his eick- nese came but a few hours before his death, and was so swift in ite progress that, when Dr. Clark arrived it was manifest that the little lite had about run its course. Al- thoegh butefive and a half years of age, Wilhe manifested intelligence far beyond 1 hie years, and hemline of his confiding na- I ture all who knew him were peculiarly draWn to the child. Upon being told he must die .he.seemed to fully realize what it meant an'd at first struggled against death's encroachmentsebut soon seemed to yield to the inevitable and expressed s willingness to go. Thereupon he bade his papa and mamma, Gladys and Robert good-bye, said good-bye said his little prayer and fell asleep in'Jesue. His life was pure and his heart was full of assurance when the end camb ; would that for a like reason, with a similar faith we all might go forth from this life with an assurance like unto his. No funeral eervioes were held, as it was feared the dieease might have been diph- theria, which made the sad occurrence doubly sad to the bereaved -parents." • DIED IN ST. TuomAS.—Mr. W. W. Cont. ci ter, who died in St. Thomas, last week, was a c usin of Mrs. Edward McFaul, of Sea- • fort , and had .many acquaintances in this pouhty. He had suffered from an attack of la g ippe, and coining out tenet:ion, suffered a re/A BC, resulting ia his death. Of the fun ral, which took place on Tuesday, the St, 'homes Times sa s : " It vvas one of the !argot held in St. Ihemas, was expressive of he very high esteem in which the de- ceits d was held as a citizen. The mem- bers of the Canadiae Order of Foresters, the Woodmen of the World and the board of edueatioia, of which the deoeased was a meteber, met at the house and marched to the church where the services were held. The chureh was crowded, many, not being able to gain admittance. The services/Were beat tiful, touchinge and most impreseive. • The several clergymen ef the town took part; in the services,: which were mainly conducted by Rev, Principal Fiewler, brother- in•lew of the deceased. Rev. George Fowl- er, Of Lisbon, Ohio, Who is also a brolher of Mlle W. W. Coultern was present and took part in the services. Addresses w_ere made by the several miniatere of the city. Rev. Pre cipal Warner an -Rev, Dr. Philp spoke of his broad sympat les and cosmopolitan spirit. Rove. Walla e and Pareons spoke toudhingly of his indness of heart, his acti eness, his faithfolness and ueefulnees as a eitizen and as a fellow laborer in moral add Christian work. The floral offerings were most beautifula-and were contributed by relatives and friends of the family ; the board of education ; the Sunday school and ,he deceased's Sunday sohool class ; the Junior Endeavorers ; also the Canadian Or- der Of Foresters. The pall bearers were the four brothers and two brothers•in-law of the deceltsed." • A PA KIR's Lia'K.—A well known and respected resident of this vicinity, who resides not ono thoueand miles from Sea - docile, and who has a special dislike for and distrost of fakirs of all kinds, had a peCtrliar expelience with -one of this ilk a few days, ago, In company with his wife, he Wad drIv4ag towards Harpurhey in a cutter and when at the cutskirts of the town he met a spru e young manewho stopped him, and acco ting!him asked if he did not want to pure ase la pair of gold rimmed spectacles, prod eing the speotaeleie HO offered them for I- ve dollars, saying he had found them in the cars, and having no use for them was willi g to part with them at a sacrifice. thin of the kind, and after considerahle 1 The entleman eaid he had no use for. any• parleying on the part of the fakir, he offered . the specteeles for 75 cents. The rersident, thinking he could not be much taken in at that, price and in order to get rid of the fello*, purchased them for the price named. Puttang his hand in hie pocket he pulled out pt. one dollar bill isod a five, all the mondy he had oh him,'and handing the' fello+ what he supposed was the dollar bill, clemainded the 25 cents in change. _ Mr. Fakie took the bill, put. it into his pocket, hanc10 out the change and made off as fast as poesible. Shortly after, when our friend returned to town and was making some purchases, he found to his chagrin that he had [given the fellow the five dollar bill in misttik_e for the one, as he supposed, so that the 't gold rimmed" spectieeles acteally cost him 4,4 75, and the fakir Was conaiderably in pocktt, as it is doubtful if the speotacles are worth even the 75 cents for which they were /field. This gold spectacle fake is an old One and a great many people have been victiMieed by it, but if our friend should happen - to run across this fakir he will inaltq it mighty uncomfortable for him, , • . toeTtioe se Soma -A t the Provincial sale of thoroughbred etock, held at Guelph last week, there were 97 hulls sold and 23 femiqes in the Shorthorn class.

I A WELL DESERVED TRIBUTE.—On the occasion of the annual congregational meet- ing of Melville ehurch, Brussels, the pastor, Rev. Mr. Ross, made fitting and feeling reference to the proposed departure from Brussels and- th severance of his connece tion with the co gregation, of Mr, Donald Stewart. Mr. tewart had been the very efficient secrete of the manaiging commit- tee and had bee actively identified with the congregatio for over forty years, in fact ever since its organizat on. During that time he had, without fee tn. reward of any kind, given generous and aluable help in leading the service of praise and in almost every department of the Aura 's work, and during a very considerable portion of that time the congregation not only had the benefit of his services but in addition those of his family. After a numbei had express- ed their appreciation of the valuable sere vices rendered by Mr. Stewart and his family, it watt meved by Thomas Straohan, seconded by J. II. Cameron, and heartily carried, that it ie the pleasure of this con- gregation to request Mr. SteWart's accept - mace of a purse of gold as some' small recog- nition of all that; he had dose for them during the past. ; Mr. Stewart thankfully accepted the generous gift. T se puree was a liberal one. The gift was a Most graceful recognition on the part of the congregation of long and faithful services always cheer• fully and ungrudgingly renderqd. .
