JOHN ' EIR. -It was with feelings of the , sinceres sorrow that the people of Seatorth I at., ed, on Saturday morning last, of the cbath of Mr. John Weir. The sad event ,owever, was not entirely unexpected, s i had been known for a few days that he w a in e very pre- carious condition. It s ems that on tbe Trevious Saturday Mr v eir had been mow- ing hie la.we and had bentme over heated. Without changing is clothiag he came down town, and takin chill, pleurisy set in. He had not been in robust health for some years, his lungs ei g the weak point. The attack Was so sever that his enfeebled constitution was nnab e to withstand it, and the end came *it in one week, de- spite all that rnedicall kill and efficient nursing could do to werd it off. Mr. Weir was in the prime of hia • anhood, being only 55 years of age. He a e to Canada from Scotland and located i eaforth about 30 years ago. After a b ief residence here he formed a pertnersbip it Mr. Adam Smith and they engaged in the milling and mer- cantile business in Blake They carried on a large and successful usiness there for several years, and ultima ely disposing of it, Mr. Weir remoied to Mi neeota, where he engaged extensively in fa ming. Disposing of his property there, 'he returned to Sea - forth, where he has since esided. He was a shrewd, careful, far efe ing business man and had been remark hl successful in all dealings, and was impl eitly trueted 'by all his bueinees ventures nd undertakings. He was strictly honorable in all his bitainess who knew him. He Was ' man of whom it could be truly said. " hie ord was as good as his bond,' and to th s, o doubt, wee due much of his huffiness if cc se. He took an active intereat in publi, a airs, and at the time of his death was an fficient ,and use- ful member of the towi ouncil, He also 0 - • took an Setive interest in the bowling and curling clubs. In short, he waif a most use- ful and trusted member of the conamunity, and as a public man he will be much missed, and his death is a distinct loss to the town. In private life he was one of the most genial and kindly of men ; a staunch, true friend and a liberal eupporter of every good oause. He was unostentatious in his profeesions and generosities, but he was none the lest; tree and liberal, and many will mise his kindly counsel and sympathy as well as aid of a 1 more practical end substantial nature. He consoientiously strove to do hie duty in private and businees as well as in public life, and such a man can not but be mourned by the community, while his -memory will be long and lovingly oheriehed by man . He leaves a widow, but no family. He h two brothers in Dakota, one of whom w able to attend the funeral. Most of h relatives live in Scotland, and he was in t habit of making periodical vieiteto the o d land to see his relatives there, as it is on a few years since his father and moth r died. There were five sons and seven daughters, and Mr. Weir's death makea 1 the first break in the family. He w 0 a consistent naember of the Presbyter e an church and a staunolt Liberal in politic , and in both of which connections as in man !others, he will be much miseed. The r , mains were laid to fest in the Maitlandban 1 cemetery on Wednesday. J171,11 WEDDINGS. -On Wednesday, Junle • llth, the residence of Mr. Robert) 'Deck; Bedford Park, Toronto was the scene of ht pretty wedding, when kiss, Jessie Oldharrr daughterof the late Jacob Oldham, of Beamis ville, was married to Mr. Duncan MoCallunt, of the Seaforth Milling Company. T e house was proftisely decorated with flower , and the bride looked well in her travelling gown of homeepun and white taffeta. Reva Dr. MacIntyre, of Beamsville, offioiated et ,the cetemony, and the bride was given away .by her brother, Mr. A. Oldham, of London, ; Mr. and Mrs. McCallum are expected in ,Seaforth next week, and Mre. MoCallum ,will receive on Wednesday and Friday, :June 25th and 27th, at the residence of her .sieter, Mrs. T, 0. Kemp. The young lcouple have numerates friende here and else- , where, who will unite with ,Tue EXPOSITOR in extending congratulations end wishinr ,them much future happiness. 1 -The home of Mr. and Mrs. Angus 'McDertnid, Huron road, was the scene of an interesting and delightful event op &tura day last when, in the presence of a goodly number of intimate friende, the silken tie ot matrimony was consummated between their charming daughter, Miss Jean H. Metter - mid, and Dr. Charles E. Briggs, a rising Burt gical practitioner, of Cleveland, Ohio. The bride, who was gowned in white organdie, over white eilk, carried in her hand a dole bouquet of Manoilleise roses, and was atl. tended by the pretty seven-year-old dangln ter of Mr. Jnlin 'McDowell, who bore on a silver tray the gelden love -token of blended hearts and lives. Rev. 'F. H. Larkin wee the Efficiating minister. Among the costl presents received, special -mention should b made of the bridegroom's gift, Which was pearl ring, set with diamonds of rare wor and sparkling beauty. After a eumptuout Wedding breakfast, seasoned will], smiles and joyous converse, the happy couple left on the afternoon express for a European trip, which is to extend over a period of six months. Their departure was witnessed by e large number of friends of the bride! whose best wishes will go with both Dre and Mrs. Briggs in all their future journey - se___. Ann SEAFORTH. - Everything in the sporting line has gone Seaforth's way dun ing the past week, and our clubs have es- tablished a record for themselves that will defy competition'. Oa Thursday evening of tast week, the first home game in the senior eeries of the Western Football Aesociation evas played on the recreation grounds, be7 tween the Berlin Rangers and the Huronee The result was a Buren ise to those who have Seen the many clime and exciting games bes tween these old rivals in seasons past, and the Hurons established the record of having scored the largest number of goals ever gob in a senior championship game, winning by 16 goals to 0. The- first half of the game Was quite interesting, but the last half wise devoid of inter& et other than as an exhil. bition of the skill of the Huron's forward line. The result is accounted for by the fact that Berlin are not as strong a team this year as formerly, and the Hurons have the stiongest team they have been able to put on the field for some years. The next game in the series will be played this (Fri; day) evening, between Galt and the Hurons, and will be a match worth going to see. qalt have twice beaten the Rangers this season, and expect to be able to hold the championship whioh they won last year. Those who saw the great game here last Season between these two teams will look forward with pleasure to the game this, evening. -On Friday the old Beavers show- ed good in their first game in the interme- diate series by defeating St. Marys, in that town, by a score of 5 goals to 1. The Beavers were cheated out of admission into the senior league„' but they have not allowed this to dampen their enthusiasm, and that they will make good in the intermediate was shown by their victory of Friday. The first home game, will be with Bright, on June 20th. -On Saturday, the third in the list of victories was recorded by the Col- leniate Inatitute boys :when they ' defeated Listowel in the final match for the Hough cup by 5 goals to 0. This ensurea the boys possession of the cup for another season. They also have established a record in defend- ing the cup againet Goderioh, Clinton, Ber- lin and Listowel, without having one goal stored against them. • . . SOUTH HURON FARMERS' INSTITUTE. -The annual meeting of the South Huron Farm- ers' Iostitete was held at Soott's hotel, Hen - gall, on Saturday last. There was a fair attendance. The chair was taken by the vice-president, Mr. Donald Marmot!, of Exeter. The report of the directors showed that good work had been done during the past year. The regular Institu le meetings had been more largely attended than previ- ously, while the supplementary meetings, despite unfavorable wea.ther, were also well attended and interesting. The finanees are in a very eatisfactory condition. The ex- penditure for the year amounted to $107.85, and there is a balence in the treasury of $271 73. Mr. R. B. McLean, of Tucker- , • smith, brought up the question of the erec- tion of wire fences on all leading roads so as to prevent the drifting of the roads with snow during the winter. His suggestions were approved of very generally by the , .. e ineeangeind a resolution was passed asking the municinal councils to afford every pos. sible eneounegement to have wire fences ereoted on either side of the leading roads and to have board and rail fences removed. It would pay councils to give liberal aid to private individuals to have this improve- ment carried out. It has been abundantly proven by experience that roads with wire fences are much lees liable to drift and be- come impassable from snow than roads with beard or rail fences. It is hoped, therefore, that the suggestions of the Institute in this matter will be very generally acted upon by municipal eouncits. The following were elected directors for the current year : R. B. McLean, A. G. Sminie, Robert McLaren, Tuokersmith ; John T. Allison, R. Del - bridge, R. Gardiner, Usborne ; D. McInnis, Exeter ; S. Brockenshire, W. 1 Lewis, Stephen • H. Smith, E. Gies, R. McMordie, Hay ; W'. Cooper, J. Ketohen Wm. Grant, , J. H. MeEwen, Robert Snowden, Stanley ; M. Y. McLean, See,forth, Messrs. John toloNevin, Tuckeramith, and WM. Mon- teith, Usborne, were appointed auditors. At a subsequent Meeting of the new board of directors, Mr. D. McInnis was appointed president ; Mr. Riohard Delbridge, vice - 0 - -f - president ; and Mr, Samuel Smil,ie, se re- tary and treatitarer. It was also decided to hold the regular Institute meetings a,t Brumfield and Exeter as ueual and the stip- plementary meetings at Bayfield, liensall, Zurich, Daelswood and Elimville. It was also decided,to affiliate with the Provinelal Fat Stook Show at Guelph so the members of the Institnte may have the usual vitt- ileges at the exhibition, The dire tors also ic decided to co-operete with the L dies' In- etitute and render there such peouniery aid as they may require for the effieent carry- ing on of their Institute work. ______n....ts LOCAL BrinEns.-4he death is announted at Regina, of Mr. James 11.
