It is too bad that after winning so enviable a reputation the club should be allowed to become defunct through lassitude.

The tolling of the English Church bell last Sunday; evening announced the death of Mr. James Armstrong, an old and highly respected farmer who has been a resident of,the township for about a quarter of century past, his farm being on the 12th con., just north of Gorrie. The old gentleinan had aI- most reached his 80th year and always enjoyed robust health until late in the Winter when he accidentally . fell and had one of his limbs broken. Since then he has been a severe sufferer and owing to his extreme age the wound did not heal and he grew gradually weaker until his;death which occurred at 2:30 p. m. on Sunday. Deceased was born in Ireland but - came to Capada in his youth, settling in Whitby township where he remained for many years, and then moved to Howick. He was an up- right, honest man and a consistent mem- ber of the : English Church, attending services in Gorrie, where. ,his familiar, manly form was well known. Although a staunch, unflinching Conservative he was in no senseoverbearing- and num- bers among his true mourners -all politi- cal and,religious creeds. - He leaves four Lhildreli:',Feh11 and idiaizzie, on the lomestead, drames sit dying medicine in Toronto, and Mrs. B. - Scott, of this village,-' Ibis. wife preceded' him to the grave Many years ago.

Mr. Green, of Mildmay, has charge of McKelvie & Rife's wool -buying business in this village. He arrived in town -on Tuesday and already has the store arranged in attractive shape. Mr. Frank Davidson of the Model Farm 9th con., reports that he has fall wheat 25 inches long growing on his farm. This beats the record by nearly two feet for this time of the year. On Tuesday last Mr. Samuel Vogan passed through Gorrie on his way home 18th con., Howick, from a two months trip to Manitoba.

We are satisfied the Young Britons have made a wise chore, and we congratulate our young friend upon his honorable preferment. - The Busy Gleaners' social last Fri- day evening was a very pleasant affair. Besides the tasty lunch 'served there was a really fine program. One of the features of the evening was the club swinging exercises by Misses. Green and Torrance, and Messrs. John and Sam. Keine. Speeches, songs, - recita- tions, etc. followed each other in ' rapid succession and were of an -excellent nature. - �. I Our thanks are due to A. McKim & Cel Montreal, for a copy of the Canadian Newspaper Directory - for 1892. It is a magnificently printed work and con- tains almost everything about Canadian newspapers worth knowing. ` Its typo- graphical appearance is especially praiseworthy and the advertisements are set up in a stylish, tasty manner which would do credit to a type foundry specimen book. Master Henry Wright, who passed his entrance examination at the Gorrie pub- lic school, took the highest number -of marks in a test made by a' class of 'SO pupils, in third-class certificate work at the Harriston High School the other day.

Deceased was in his usual health up to three weeks before his death, which occurred on the 12th inst. It appears he went some distance from hone and - on his return fell sick. He sent for a doctor who first said he had only a cold or an attack of la grippe. Archie ap- peared to know he was going to die, and serit for his sister, who lives north -of Virden, to come and see him die. He grew rapidly. Worse and soon bid fare- well to sorrowing friends. He seemed . to be prepared for the change, and some of his 1-ist words were "How sweet the name of Jesus sounds Iu a believer's ear ; %soothes his sorrows, heats his wounds, And drives away his fears." He was a steward in the Methodist Church, a respectable citizen, an honest and obliging neighbor and highly es- teemed in the eommianity- in which he lived. He died in the prime of life leaving a wife and five children, three sisters, three brothers and an aged father to mourn his loss.
