relating to postoffice businese: On

soch postoffice, a new office, ,in the
thwnehip of East Wawanosh, was
opened 14: my charge as postmaster
under directions and instructions from
the late Gilbert Griffin, the aceing in-
epector at that time. I held the of-
fice continuousay from that date to
January '1st, 1907, a period of 45
years and four mon:thee, so that I
claim, it not the oldest, I arn at
least one- of the oldest established
postmasters in the connty of 1 Huron.
For certain .reasons I sent in any res-
ignation to Ottawa on. S-ebtember
lst last, as postmaster of Marnoch,
which was accepted, and on the lst
day of January, 1997, the postoffice at
Marnoch ceased to exist. re other
words it was closed for any further
business being done there as a nost-
office. So you see' that. Mr, Dick-

• cord of 45 years and four rronthe., to
January let, 1907, is ahead of him- yet.
Of courthe the business done all these
years back at Marnoch was at a mere
nothing when compared with what
was being done in a town the size
of Seaforth. I might also state fur-
ther, by way of postcript, that I have
held continuously for over forty
years the contract for carrying the

The Late Mr. Miller. -Our village
was the scene of a very sad event on
Thursday morning, 10th inst., when
the remains of the late W. 5. Miller
were brought here from Los Angeles,
California, for interment. Mr. Miller
was well and favorably known here,
comang • as' a very young man to
learn the blacksmith and carriage -
making business 'with Messrs Brown
and Clark, 'and- after serving his ap-
prenticeship with them, he erected a.
ehop for himpelf some 'twelve years
ago, and, as 'his business enlarged and
hiS premises were too 'small, he erect-
ed, about five years ago, the fine,
aubstantial cement shop, which is
one of the largest and bent fitted
up shops in the county. Here he
continued to carry on a large trade
until last spring, when he WEIS at-
tra,cted to the West, where he engag-
ed in. another line of business, until
his health failed him, and, although
he received the best of medical and
hospital treatment at the hands e,f his
Brother Odtifellows, and kind friends,
hie wife and family not yet having
joined him in High River, Alberta, al-
though Mrs. Miller was there to visit
him, he continued to grow 'weaker, un-
til at last he was advised by his doe -
tors to take .a trip to Los Angeles,
California„- in the hopes of regaining
his health, but before reaching that
place, accompanied hy a nurse, and
while on the train, a short die-
tance frorn his destination his strength
'seriously taxed by his illness and the
trip, gave out; and he expired on; the
train. The rerea,ins were sent here
for interment. Mr. Miller was born
in Cromarty, in the township of
Hibbert, in 1847, and was a man pose
sessed of splendid business ability
coupled with lots of push and energy,
and worked t beyond his physical
strength. so ambitious was he to

both- reeve and councillor in Hen -
calla aed took a live interest in Ms
progress and development of our
village, and did his share to im-
prove it, having erected the opera
house with -shops beneath it, a fine
drug store with rooms above it. and
besides, a number of handsome brick
dwellings. -As a husband and father.
he was loving and indulgent, and

A Happy Event. -A pleasant gather-
ing took place on. Wednesday of last
week, at the home ef Mr. John Watt,
in the township of Hullett, neatHar-
lock. The occasion of the gathering
was the marria0 of Mr. Watt's niece,
Miss Margaret Fairservice, to Mr.
Richard Armstrong. of the townehip
of Grey. Between fifty and sixty re-
latives and friends witnessed the cerea
mony. The marriage was perforcned
by -the Rev. Neil M. Leckie. B.D.. of
Burne' church, Hullett. The bride
andegroone were unattended except by
Molder Ernest Stevens, who carried
the wedding ring in -a small basket
of flower's. The bride's deess was
pretty and becoming, being I Made of

The Late airs. Drysdale. -It Is our
painful duty to ,chronicle the death
of Mrs. Rettert Dryedale. Only a
short time a,go we welcomed Mr. and
Mee. Drysdale and family to our vil-
lage. We had hoped that tt, kind pro-
vtdence would have spared them many
years among us, but alas ire the midsh
of life we are in death, Mrs. Drys-
dale had been ill for the past 'year
but she bore her pain in silence and
with great fortitude. She was .of a
quiet, amiable and kind disposition.
and was highly esteemed by all who
made, her acquaintance: Her maiden
name was Susanah Stephenson, the
third daughter of Mr. Ralph Stepai-
email, who located in the township
of Stanley in the early thirties, when
Stanley was comparatively a dense
forest. ahe leaves a husband and
eight children to mourn the 1GSS of
a loving wife and kind mother. All
the family except Ralph were per:.
milted to witness the cloning scene!,
of a well spent life. The family con -
cies of four sons and four daugh-
ters, viz.: Robert, who condacts a,
general store at Laurel, Michigan;
Ralph, who also conducts •a general
store at Dubuc, Saskatchewan; John,
who is book keeper for 'the Wm. Dav-
is Co., of Montreal; Mark, Mary,
ily, Maggie and Pearl at home. The
funeral service was held in Carmel
Presbyterian church on Monday,
January lth, where the deceased had
regularly attended while her health
pertrdtted. The spacious church was
well filled and an impressive and ex-
cellent sermon was delivered by the
pastor, Rev. Mr. Smith, in which he
epoke he the highest terms of the
character and life of the deceased and
the loss that net ondy the berealved
family but the church had .sustai!n.ed
in her death. After the service the
remains were conveyed to the fam-
ily plot in tne Bayfield cemetery,
followed by a, large edturnber of rel-
atives and friends and we extend
our deepest sympatny to the sorrow-
ing nusband and family in their sad
bereavement..

Bad iblood means bad health. That
is why!Dr. Williams' Pink Pills mean
good health. They actuallY make

ness to the truth of these state-
ments, Mrs. Hannigan says :-" For
nearly three years I suffered from
anaemia, ('bloodlessness) and during
that time coxibulted and tdok medi-
cine from several doctore, without
beneficial -results. My compleedon
was af a waxey appearance, my lips
and gums seemed bloodless. I suffer-
ed from beadaches, dizziness and pal-
pitation of the heart. My appetite
was so poor that 1 did not care
whether I ate or noteand, I grew(' so
weak, andi was so much reduced in
fleoh that my friends thought I was
itt coneumption. As I have :said,- I
doetored without benefit, until the
last doetor whom I consulted ad -vis -
ed me to try Dr.Williamet Pink Pills.
I followed his advice, and less than
a, dozen boxes have made me the
-well woman I am to -day. ,All the
symptoms of met trouble have van-
ished. and I enjoy •the very best of
health. I know there are hundreds
of women who are drifting into the
same condition I was, and •to all
such I would r:trr,-.1 gly urge the im-
mediate uze •of Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills."
