Deatheof A Good Woman, — Last
week ife-,,,rnade brief mention of the
serious illness of 1Vire. George Me -
Kay, of this village. This week it is
our sad duty to record her death.
She pasesd away on Thursday morns
ALUMINUM WARE—Assortment . ing,N. ovember lst. Mks. McKay's ill-
ness was of very short duration, as
a week previous to her death she was
attending to her household duties.
Mrs. McKay, who was in her '73rd
year, was born in Lantbton county,
and came with her parents and other
members of the family to the town-
ship of Hibbert some sixty years ago,
her maiden name being Jane B. Cald-
well. About thirty years ago she was
married to Mr. George McKay, who
survives her, and came to the township
of Tuckerstnith, residing on the 4th
concession. About fourteen years ago
Mr. and Mrs. McKayretired from
the farm and came to live in Kippeia
Besides her husband, Mrs. McKay is
surviived by one brother, Andrew, and
two sisters, Mrs. McMillan, of Van-
couver, and Mrs. John -Finlayson, of
SeafOrth. The deceaesd was truly a
good. woman in every sense of the terrn
and while not making an ostentatious
show of generosity, no deserving per-
son every appealed to - her in vain,
either for need, counsel or more tan-
gible evidence of kindness; eonee-
quently she was not only highly re-
ppected by all who enjoyed her ac-
quaintance but was beloved by many.
She was a member of St. Andrew's
church for many years, and her life
fully corresponded with her Christian
professions. In short she manifested
the greatest zeal in every good work,
and was permitted to do so until with-
in a few weeks before her death. The
funeral took place on Saturday list,
the services being conducted by her
Pastor, Rev. Dr. Aitken, and Rev.
Mr. Richardson, of Brigden, her for-
mer pastor, the services being con-
ducted in St. Andrew's church. The
funeral was very largely attended,
testifying to the high esteem in Which
the deceased kwas held by those who
were best quhlified to- judge of her
•kind disnosition and •christian char-
acter. The remains -were laid to rest
in the family plot in the Ross ceme-
tery, the pall bearers being Messrs.
James Robertson, Isaac Jarrott. Jas.
B. McLean, Andrew Bell. T. N. For-
syth and Thomas Mons. Among the
friends from a distance attending the
funeral we noticed: Mrs. Peter Me -
Ewan sr.. Mr. and Mrs. Peter Me -
Ewan, jr., Mr. Mai McEwan, and
the Misses Margaret and Mary McEw-
son; en, and Mr. and Mrs. John Fin-
an,_all of Goderich; Mrs. John Finlay-
layson, sr., of Seaforth. At the morn-
ing service last Sunday Rev. Dr. Ait-
ken conducted a memorial service\ i
reference to Mrs. McKay.
Notes.—Mrs. Thomas Harevy, of

Edmonton, were the guests of their

WednesPday.—The missionary' cam-
paign in the Methodist church was

Thomas Harvey, of the Exeter Roller
Mills, preached one Sunday, and Mr.

are striving to increase their givings
to missions twenty per cent.; and
they have every prospect of success.
Last year they gave $500. This year
their aim is $600.—The many friends
of Mrs. Duncan McGregor, for many
Years a valued reSitlent of our village,
will be sorry to learn t eUt• she met
-with an accident daring -We past week.
While on the road she received a se-
vere fall on the hard ground, which
gave her quite a shaking up along
with considerable bruises. Fortunately
no bones were broken, and she is now
recovering.—Rev. Mr. Richardson, of
Brigden, and a former pastor of St.
Andrew's church here, was visiting
with his mother-in-law, Mrs. Andrew
Bell, sr., and other friends. He came
up to attend the funeral of Mrs. Geo:
McKay.—Mr. D. Kettleton's sale on
Wednesday last was largely attended
and good prices were realized. The 50 -
acre farm was knocked down at $4,800
to Mr. Detweiler, merchant, of our
village. The price paid is evidence
that the farmers of Huron are not
giving their land away. The farm,
with stock and implements, totalled
some seven thousand dollars.—Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Taylor, of Forest, are
visitors with their daughter, Mrs. John
Bell —Mrs. William McDougall, ac-
companied by her, daughter, Mrs.

ery will be rapid.
