THE TURF CLUB. -The annual meeti .g of
the Seaforth Turf Club was held in ik's
hotel, on -Monday e •ening last. The r•eas-
urer's report showed the club to be in very
favorable standing finsnoially. The fo low-
ing_ officers were elected for the en uing
year : Preaident, R. Wilson '• v(oe-presi-
dent, James Dick; treasurer, W. K. Pearce;
directors, J. Cardno, Alex. Winter, John
Bell, W. C.: Govenlock and F. Kling • audi-
tors, James Watt on and W. Hills. kr. M.
Broderick, who has been the efficient and
energetic secretary of the asaociati n since
its organization, declined re-election but the
association did not teke any action toward3
appointing a suocessor, evidently hoping
that Mr. Broderick would re-oon4der the
matter, and decide to accept theosition.
t
It would be a deaided loss to the aatooiation
should Mr. Broderick definitely daide to
withdraw, and we trust, that he will see his
way clear to again act. The assiociation
will'hold their annual r3.Ce meet a.lout the
third week in June. i

ducted by Rev, Mt. Grant, of 8t. Marys.
Mr. Grant is a unqersalfavorite wherever
he is known. The Egm ndville people had
him before and they were

other opportunity of listening to him, and
despite the very stormy Weather and bad
roads there was a large cengregaticin tio the
morning and a good attendance in the even-
ing, and had the weather bee° favorable the
church would not have aocommedated the
congregations. And he delivered two ser-

church choir else gave special musical Selee-
Mons which were ff. tch appreciated by the
congregation. On the following MOnday
evening the annualtea meeting was held,
The Egmondville te meeting a are always

the general rule. he ladies ilid theirf part
most nobly and thei retreshnoents pro ided
were of the vary.bet and in great fabari-
dance, and if any person was not satisfied it
must have been due to some defect in pheir
own make up. At the appointed hour the
feast of reason andeeng was commenced i the
audience room by the pastor, Rev. Mr.
Shaw. Interesting addresses were silso de-
livered by Rev. Mr. ()leant Rev, Mr.
