years of age. After eematning there
for a time he went to Charleston

eight years in Charieeton, when the
war broke out. He joined the South-
ern army, under General Buregerd
end took part in the bombardraent
of Fort Sumpter. After three
months in the senvice he enlisted as
• seaman and was on the first vessel
that eleared the blockade and reach-
ed Liverpool carrying Confederate
colors, 'where a elute was fired by -
a British mom of war, Mr. *Kaliay
placing the 'flag aloft. After spend-
ing a short time in Liverpool, he re-
turned to New York, remaining a-
bout a year, when he virea4 west to.
Illin,ois, where he remained until the
closed of the war, running the tisk
of two drafts into the North-
ern army, He returned again to.
New 'York where he spent two years.
In 1860 he roame to the Huron traet
to visit friends here and spent his
first winter with Mr. Jahn Logan in
his store in Egmondville. The fol-
lowing •summer he spent with the
late William McConnell on the ferra
and the following minter he spent
with friends in Huron township,
Brume county. He again returned to
Illinois and spent three years there.
In 1866 he returned to Huron and
was married to Jane Ramsey, eldest
daughter of the late Peter Ramsey,
of Tusekersmith. With his young
bride he settled, in the township of
Ashfield, on a. bush farm near Luck -
now. Here he evinced the same
pluek and energy he had displayed
in his former enterprises ana by
dint of industry and good. manage-
ment soon converted the forest farm
into a beautiful and oonafprtable
home for himself and family. He
continued to reside in Ashfield untir
1895, when he puecha,sed the old
Ramsay homestead in Tuckersmith
- where he continued to reside until
his death, 'his eldest son still residing
On the homestead in Ashfield. Mr.
McNair was, in many respects, a re-
markable man. He had seen a great
deal of life end being a keen observ-
er, was a most entertaining and. com-
panionable gentleman. He wns
shrewd in business, of sterling char-
ructer and gentlemanly and courteous
in manner. While he took an intel-
ligent 'interest in an public, affairs,
he never 'aspired to public position.
Had be done so his eirperience and
business ability would have been of
much public service. He leaves a
widow and family of two Brans and
two dauglaters to mourn his lads and
+cherish the mory of a kind husband
and worthy father. The sons are
Peter, of Ashfield, and John at home
and the daughters are Mrs. William .
