Irwin was in the coun t town on legal business last week. Messrs. Loundesbury and Hasket of Lakelet, called on Gorrie friends la Sunday. e y Mr. Perkins is having a new founda tion placed under his grain storehous in this village. Geo. Green, Esq., of Wingham, former Gorrie merchant, was visiting i town early in the week. Toronto's exhibition is now in pro Fess and it is likely Howick will send her full compliment of visitors. Mrs. Green, of Wingham, who has been visiting her mother for a short time Iately, extended her visit to Arthur last week. Messrs. J. W. Sanderson and Von Dickson, of. Wroxeter, visited Gorrie on their pneumatic bicycles last Tuesday evening. Mr. McAllister, a street preacher, de- livered anexhaustivediscourse in Gorrie last Sunday evening. He was listened to by a large audience. Rev. Jas. Coburn, formerly of Ford- wich, has been making some prominent speeches on Orange matters in Toronto within the past week or so. Mr. D. Sanderson has treated him- self to a' fine family carry -all, which adds considerably to the display of car- riages which Gorrieites can make. The congregation of Trinity C di ordwieh, purpose holding Thanksgiving services and harvest festival on Tuesday, Sept. 20t entertainment will be held in the ing. A very successful garden part held at Mr, Edward James' resi Ilast Friday evening. The ground tastily arranged and illuminated fo occasion, the tables, from which the - icacies were served, being spread under e the trees. An excellent literary and musical program was rendered, promi- nent in which was a recitation by Mi a Dane, a solo by Miss Ayers, arid a ple of instrumental (violin and o selections by Mr. and Miss Ashton, - Gorrie Brass Band was engaged for occasion, and their music was we ceived by the guests. There were a 200 people ou the grounds, and theBusy Gleair rs, under whose auspices the par- ty was given, netted a handsome sum. Wroxeter. Rev. Mr. Shaw -is now on the ocean homeward bound. Mr.Humphries,`who haa.filled the pulpit of the Methodist Church here - during his absence, will preach his farewell sermon next Sunday. This young gentleman is a very clever preacher end will yet makehis mark,be- ing ready and fluent in his delivery. A rather serious accident happened at the church now under construction here. Last Saturday morning the men had just got to work and were raising the scaffold, when by some accident the whole concern fell to the ground, a dis- tance of about 18 feet, carrying with it Mr. McDonald,:. the contractor, and another man whose name we -did not learn. Mr. McDonald had one of his legs broken just above the ankle, and received some injury to his back; his companion also had his back badly hurt and was considerably bruised. Both were taken to their homes, some dis- tance out of town, and their physician, Dr. Brawn, reports that they are now doing very well. hurch, Orange Hill. harvest home Messrs. Wm. Montgomery and Fred h. An Edgar left for the Model School w Mt. even- Forest last Thursday. Success. Our school is again booming in full y was blast with friend Shearer at the helm, dance I It is hoped that our school for next year s were j does as well as it has in the past. Not - r the I withstanding Mr. Shearer's having to del- cope , withan average attendance of over sixty, seven were sent out to the entrance, all of whom passed, and one passed the Public School leaving exam- ination. This was the only successful C071 - u, candidate for this exam, of all those or who wrcte at Harriston. Oar school The I now ranks as one of the first in the the county, and we expect soon to hear of well re- I its further advancement. bout I Miss Maud Howard, of Hamilton, is visiting with the Misses Howar d of our city. Mr. Edward Ferguson's new stone house is rapidly nearing completion. Mr. Robt. Millen spent the latter part of last week at the bedside of father, who is sick at Londesboro. Preaching in Fordwich must be at a premium. Several of our young men treated their "fair ones" to the ex- pounding of the Scripture in that :place on Sunday night. Mr. Will Ashton intends to become a student at the Brockville high school for the fall term, having decided to study, with a view of becoming a min- ister. The Presbyterian church has under- gone a complete renovation. The work was done in a thoroughly artistic man- ner, Mr. Edgar Veal, of Wroxeter hav- ing the contract. Mr. Thos. Walker, of the 6th con., re- ceived a telegram yesterday from North Dakota, stating that his son George was dangerously ill and requesting his presence there immediately. After a two -weeks stay Mr. Wheat- croft has closed his butchering business in Gorrie, it being too far away to work successfully with his large operations in a similar line of trade in Palmerston. A Mr.Kirkby, of Toronto, was in town on Tuesday, selling a patent .lettering pencil: He is a fine penman and . Left many evidences of his - skillon the win- dows and show -cases of our business places. The congregations of St. Stephens' church, Gorrie, and St. James' church, Wroxeter, purpose holding their annual harvest Thanksgiving services on Sun- day Sept. 25th. Rev. Hughes, of Wing - ham, will take the services. - The death of Mr. Alex. Johnstone,7th con., Howick, east of Fordwicli,occurred on Friday last, of typhoid fever. De- ceased was one of the oldest settlers in the township. His funeral was, per- haps, the largest ever held in the town- ship. An obituary notice was received too late for this issue. Mr. P. H. Shaver has bought the resi- dence at the rear of the GAZETTE office (now occupied by Mr. Geo. Horton) from Mr. Jas. McLaughlin, and will shortly move his family into it. Mr. S. has been quite successful in his shoe trade and has largely added to his business lately, having decided permanently to remain in Gorrie. Messrs. Jas. and Thos. H. McLaughlin started by C. P. R. on Tuesday morn- ing for a months' ramble through Mani- toba. They were followed in the after- noon by Mr. Jas. Leech, who returned unexpectedly to the Prairie Province to settle some business matters in connec- tion with his property there. The party were to have been joined at Chelt- enham by Mr. Jas. Rogers, sr., a former Gorrieite. We call attention to the change of ad. of the Montreal House in this issue. Mr. Bean informs us that he has just closed his twelfth year of business in Gorrio, and notwithstanding the many changes that have taken place among the business men of this village during that time, and in the face of almost every conceivable class of opposition he has steadfastly adhered to the principles laid down in his advertisement of this week. From a comparatively small beginning he has built a business that will com- pare favourably with any in this section of the country, and has established a reputation for honorable, straight for- ward dealing, second to none anywhere. The Mailsays of Parker's Dye Works Toronto : "No longer is it necessary to give away, or sell for 9, trifling amount, the partly worn goods when they can be cleaned and dyed so as to present as good an appearance as new, and last double the time they woukkotherwise. This firm have now a most enviable reputation and are distinguished from other and less comptent dyers by the fine work they turn out." We cannot say any too much ,for R. Parker & Co., the well-known dyers, of Toronto. We advise our readers to look.through their wardrobe and have their soiled or faded garments cleaned or dyed to look like new. 'Agents: A. B. Allison, Gorrie ; Jas ]l --Wroxeter; H. C. Bell, Ford- wiclf. Orders left at any of the above agencies `will receive prompt attention. The Gorrie Brass Band treated our village to a short serenade last Thur s - day evening while on their way to the garden party at Mr. Evans'. They were highly complimented for their pro- ficiency, and our citizens are looking forward with pleasure to the open-air concert the boys have promised to give here shortly. The Methodist garden party at Mr. Evans', just north of the village, last Thursday evening, was a very pleasant and successful affair. The evening was delightful and the beautiful lawn pre- sented an animated appearance: A fine program was, rendered in the parlors while the Gorrie Brass Band furnished an entertaining concert on the lawn, where the young people heartily en- joyed themselves in playing games, etc. A splendid lunch was served on tables prepared for the occasion, where the choicest edibles were temptingly ar- rayed, a special table being spread for the Band boys. A handsome sum was realized at the gate. A well-written story of a young lady's mistake the other day, is ommitted out of sympathy for the young man who lost the kiss intended for him. Lakelet. Much sympathy ia expressed for the young man who ditched for Mr. Horton for some days, and who one night last week suffered excruciating pain of a singular nature. Since then he is quite deaf and is altogether in an unenviable state. There is some grain out around here yet. Those whose misfortune it was not to get through last week will now have a respite till it again dries out. Mrs. T. Pomeroy, . daughter of Mr. Geo. Burnett arrived home from Mon- tana on Friday last. She has been away for six years, and purposes stay- ing at home with her parents for some months. Miss Etta Scott and Mr. Bert Dul- mage left to -day (Monday) for that now renowned institute, Harriston High School. We wish them success in their year's work, and trust that their success this year may be repeated in 1893. We hoar that our hotel man contem- plates putting a steamboat or some- thing of that nature on the lake in the near future. Had we a few more en- terprising men like Mr. L. we might ex- pect some scheme devised to in some way connect with lake Huron and have our products carried off much more cou- veniently than at present. Quite a number took in the lawn social at Orange Hill last week. For the past two--weeka almost too lively a time exists in our berg on Satur- day evenings. Not the most sanctimoni- ous in the world crowd round; the re- sult is disorder in the highest degree and sometimes, as on Saturday last, it culminates in a pugilistic encounter. BRren.— There is to be a paring bee at Mr. Jas. Wright's next Tuesday evening. We need something to enliven times and expel the monotony...Mr. Jno. Allan, brother of Mr. Wm. Allan, is visit- ing around here. He too, falls heir to $10,000 and will live in affluence the rest of his days...Mr.,, Moore, brother of Mrs. Jas. Horton, is- visiting here now. Mr. M. is a thriving blacksmith in one of the eastern connties...Miss M. Critten- den left for Belmore to -day where she intends to remain a few days before re- turning to Blyth...Mr. and Mrs. Carlton paid relatives in Walkerton a visit last Saturday and Sunday...Miss Ruttledge, of Carrick, is the guest of Mr. W. Hubbard. The social, under the auspices of the Sunday School, which was held at Mr. Spotton's, proved to be a success, not- withstanding the threatening weather of the afternoon. The tea was served in elegant style (as: our worthy ladies are accustomed to do) to the large number that assembled. After tea one of the best programmes in this part of the township was rendered. ' The chair was taken by Mr. T. G. Shearer in his usual jovial, instructive manner,and the programme was rendered by speeches from Rev. Mr. Greene, Messrs. Shearer and Jacques, and music and recitations from the local talent. An attractive part of the programme was the many selections rendered by Mr. Garratt, of Fordwioh, and Mr. Almont, of Listowel.. The guests went away well pleased with" the evening's entertainment and the officers of the -School did likewise, knowe ina that there was $34.38 more in the treasury then before the social. Huntingfield. I have noticed that your correspond- ent is either away from home or asleep, so I thought I would give you a few lines. With good weather fall wheat seeding will soon be finished. --Miss Brawn, of Wroxeter, is organiz- ing a class in instrumental music in this neighborhood. When the cherries were ripe this year, Mr. George Vogan had a cherry tree in his orchard upon which were ripe fruit and blossoms side by side. Now one of his crab-apple trees is performing; a sim- ilar freak. On the 30th August there were a number of blossoms upon it in full blow, .and now the fruit is set. . Mr. A lex. Burnett met with an acci- dent on Saturday. While drawing in grain he fell off the load onto the barn floor, hurting his face and head. For- tunately no bones were broken and he is now able to be about. We are glad to see Mrs, G. Pomeroy around again after her late. illness. Apple buyers are scouring the country trying to buy+ apples. But the farmers are wary, remembering that only a couple of years ago a buyer from Wing - ham closed deals with some of us at $L25 per barrel when apples were h $2.50. Second Line. Misses Vickie Cooper and Maggie Roadhouse and Mr. Dunlop left on Wednesday to attend the Clinton Model School. They were all .successful can- didates at the late. Departmental Exam- inations. The two latter obtained 3rd class certificates, and the former a 2nd. The success of Miss Cooper is especially noteworthy in that she passed with but six months' High School training, the rest of her school life having been spent in S. S. No. 11. We congratulate our young friends on their recent success, and admire their ambition toward a higher sphere of life. They have all an ample,supply of tact, push and princi- ple, the vital elements of success. and will, if given a standing place 111 the profession, let the country know that they are "in it." - Mr. Charles Tilker has moved" back to the 4th line. Charles' short stay on the 2nd proved very prosperous to him, for during that time he received a prop for his old age 'in the person of a bloom. ing little Tory. Messrs. B. Cooper, T. Hicks and C. Tilker went out :on a coon .hunting ex; pedition one evening not long ago, and udging by the; odor given off by the arty on their; -return home; black cats - wi th white stripes were more plentiful han coons.
