Fowlie's store and she will have charge of it. The Di- rectors desire that all parties having books return them so that complete arrangements may be made to carry on the work of the Library. — The worst fire that has yet occurred in this village took place last Sunday evening when Thomas King's bakery, dwelling and shop, in which the Bay- field Library was located, the store and dwelling for many years owned by the late Charles Tippet and until recently occupied by George Green- slade, but now owned by John Pease, the dwelling and store owned by Henry Drehmann and in which the post office was located, were all com- pletely destroyed. About 9.30 flames were seen issuing from a building at the rear of the Pease store. The fire quickly spread and soon -the main building was in flames. The rear of King's caught next, then Drehmann's, A large crowd soon gathered, but the lack of fire fighting appliances pre- vented the buildings from being sav- ed. Many hands worked hard and nearly all the contents of all were removed to the street and to the Albion Hotel, the barn and garage. Dr. Wood's residence and the nearby buildings were in great danger and no doubt the recent heavy fall of snow helped save them. The wind carried burning pieces as far as S. Cleaves' and the Methodist church, It was fortunate, too, that it hap- pened so early as if late and people had retired, little would have been saved. People from some miles , in the country came and rendered what help they could. The origin of the fire is not known. H. Drehmann car- ried $1,000 insurance, the others had no insurance, J. Pease had some ma- terial op the street and Robert Spack- man had the contract to repair the building and veneer it with cement, and purposed carrying on a grocery and restaurant bbsinese and had butt recently bought G. Greenslade's stock and fixtures. Thomas King had 1 , Soxn• , . Cl' buy a , any don't '5l until Iva o'clock can -4 Dwaine • A.

Dear Expositor:—At the He Jubilee there was all kinds of fun enjoyment on Wednesday and Th day of last week, and on Friday had the Hon. Mr. Biggs, the Mini of Public Highways, who gave an cellent address on road reeking. said good drainage was the great sentiul in the making of any roa We all agreed with him on that poi and if he had seen the condition which the drains were put in un the concrete pavement he would ha had the same opinion as the majori of the citizens of Hensall, that drains were not satisfactory as th were not filled with either gravel cinders, as the contract called and the wagons sank down to hubs in many places in the drain where the tile was laid. There we too many officiating that did not derstand their business, some of the even thought the water should 18g Wad- nox A. lie of of the for and it n.' nd de 091 - ere all nd rs- we er x - He 5- d. nt in er ye ty the ey or r, the a, re n- un up hill, and the pond of water, ab eight inches deep, which lay at Post Office corner for days, was clear evidence that the .drains w not in working order. We ha* heard no complaints, h ever, about the concrete pavement, it was supervised by Alf. Taylor, made the contractor put in the rig proportions of cement and gravel also lay the proper thickness that contract called for, and the citzens Hensall owe their gratitude to who acted to faithfully on the jo If their is any taxpayer in village that can stand up and say the drains 'were put in satisfactor the citizens of Hensall should him a ntedal for his knowledge RATEPAYER. The ,Late T. J. Berry,—With passing of years, one by one pioneer business men are passing way to join the great majority. week we are called upon to chronic the death •of one of our enterprisi business men in the person of Thomas J. , Berry, the well know horse buyeisand importer of thorn bred Clydesdale and other heavy b entire horses. In the importing horses from the Old Country crossed the ocean some forty time which speaks for itself of his en prising business methods and his sire to have the very best, for wh• he was always ready to venture high cost if they were well pedigree horses and did, perhaps, more th any other horseman in the count for the improvement of stock. T large list of prizes from year to -ye given to his horses and their stn both in the home county and town a city Exhibitions, bear the best of e deuce to that fact. Mr. Berry w born in the Township of Hay, Octob 18th, 1856, a son of the late Ada Berry, of that township, and at t early age of 17 years began buyi live stock for Boston, Buffalo and O Country markets. As we have me tinned he crossed to England a France in shipping and buying less than forty or y times, and was co sidered a high class authority in jud ing all classes of horses, having act as judge in• the majority of Li Stock Exhibitions in the country, i eluding Royal Winter Shows at To- ronto, Guelph Winter Fairs and the Fall Exhibitions at London, a at Toronto Exhibitions. As a citizen, and he was one of the pioneer on of our village, he always took a dee interest in what concerned the wel- fare of the place and showed great enterprise in erecting one of the fin- est est sale and exchange stables to found anywhere, which admirably adapted to his business, having every convenience and being well planned throughout and of the very best con- structions. o structions. His fine brick residence, just across the street to the east, al- so bore evidence that he wanted t best construction and he always kept his premises so neat and tasty, and as a bountiful provider both for t home and his stables he could not well surpassed and generally had pro- vision r vision for years ahead. Although busy man who looked well after his business and home interests, he al- ways found time to do any kind or charitable act that appealed to him and as a neighbor and friend he was most kind and obliging, while as a husband and parent, he was -most generous and indulgent. He was a Liberal by inclination and a member of Carmel Presbyterian church. He was also a member of the Masonic Lodge, and the funeral services on Saturday afternoon last were con- ducted at the home by the Rev. J. A. McConnell, of Carmel church, and at McTaggart's Cemetery by the Masons the pall hearers being John Zuefle, William Consitt, Donald Burns, Geo. T. Wren, C. A. McDonell and G. J. Sutherland. The attendance at both the home and cemetery was quite large, for a cold, stormy afternoon, and much sympathy is felt for the bereaved widow, nee Miss Annie Ford, and two sons Wilson and Edward.
