On Saturday last Mr. Holmes received
word from Toronto to the effect that his
son Mr. Jno. Holmes, lawyer of Toronto,
was dead. Lawyer Holmes, formerly a
resident of Wingham, and gave promise
of, being one of Canada's greatest bar-
risters. Not long ago he had a rather'
difficult case in his hands and much
study was required and an unusual
amount of talking, affecting his throat
which has troubled him for some time.
It seems he had been in the habit of
taking morphine to soothe the pain and
gain some sleep and on Friday evening
he was suffering more than usual he
took an unusual amount of the drug.
He soon saw his mistake and notified a
friend who had been near his rooms. In
spite ofhis friend's exertion he could
not keep him awake. A doctor was
sent for and when he arrived Mr. Holmes
was unconscious and could not be
aroused. The doctor seeing theserious-
ness of the case at once sent for two
more physicians. In vain they worked
and at five o'clock Friday morning he
:died. His father who resides here is
almost frantic with grief. He always
was proud cf his son and had a right to
be so. The warmest sympathy is
tendered the grief-stricken parents.
