Later the lid was replaced without the little girl's presence in the water being suspected, and it was not until about an hour after, when' search was being made for her, that her dead body was found.

The Late Walter Sceti.—One of the pioneer • business men of Seaforth died at his home in Toronto on Sat- urday last in the person of Mr. Walter Scott. Mr. Scott came to Canada in 1866 and shortly after came to Seaforth where he engag- ed in the cabinet making business" in a building belonging to the late J. H. Broadfoot and situated where the Canada Furniture Companie's large; factory nosy stands. In 1875 he and Mr. Thomas Bell entered into partner- ship and started a large cabinet mak- ing emporium., under the firm name of Scott & Bell, which they conducted 'for a 'number of years. About thirty years ago the partnership was dissolv- ed, Mr. Scott removing to Toronto, where he has since resided. In July last Mr. Scott and his daughter took a trio to the west to visit his son, Mr. George Scott in Wlinnipeg and his brother at Minto,• Manitoba, where he spent most of the summer. He was taken ill at his brother's home and had just returned to Toronto about, two weeks before the end came. Mr. Scott was a consistent Presbyterian in religion and in politics a strong Liberal: He was a frequent visitor to Seaforth and was well known to many of the older residents, whom he greatly enjoyed meeting, and who will sincerely regret to learn of his death. Death of Mrs. John Thomson.—We made brief mention last week of the death of Mrs. John Thomson, which occurred at the home of her son, Mr. Robert Thomson, in Brussels, on Wed- nesday, October 22nd.

In the year 1859 she *as united in marriage to the late John Thomson ' and soon after the young couple came up to .a faun on the 16th concession of Grey, which was then a wilderness. There they resided for some twelve ' years until Mr. Thomson's health fail- ' ed, when they disposed of the farm land moved to, Clinton.

"The Tory party and the Grit party as far as Ontario is concerned were both doom- ed from the day the delegation of farmers were sneered at and refused admission to the parliament buildings at Ottawa. Every member of . that del, egation, no matter what his previous party leanings, cam back determin- ed to strike out both right and left. The Hearst 'Government was the first they could -reach, and the effect is quite apparent. The farmers know how to strike. They wonder -now why they had not tried themselves out be- fore. They are already clamoring for a bout with those higher up. Hearst suffered defeat principally for the sins of the Union Government."—Mrs. C. Beale spent a few days with Mrs. J. Sullivan, Huron Road, west.—Mr. L. M.

"The Tory party and the Grit party as far as Ontario is concerned were both doom- ed from the day the delegation of farmers were sneered at and refused admission to the parliament buildings at Ottawa. Every member of . that del, egation, no matter what his previous party leanings, cam back determin- ed to strike out both right and left. The Hearst 'Government was the first they could -reach, and the effect is quite apparent. The farmers know how to strike. They wonder -now why they had not tried themselves out be- fore. They are already clamoring for a bout with those higher up. Hearst suffered defeat principally for the sins of the Union Government."—Mrs. C. Beale spent a few days with Mrs. J. Sullivan, Huron Road, west.—Mr. L. M.
