are graces that make a beautiful
Christian character. -Mr. Mac Aik-

The Late William Granger. -In the

lett, at the home of his son on Sun-
day night, another of the pioneer
residents passed away; one who play-
ed bis full share in the pioneer life of
this community, the fruits of whose
labor stand as a monument to the
energy and thrift of his earlier life.
Notwithstanding his advanaced age,
the late Mr. Grainger enjoyed excel-
lent health until the hour of his death.
The late deceased was an English-
man by birth, having been born
at Sicklethorne, near Hull, England,
in the year 1834, and came to
Canada when a young man twenty
years of age. He first settled in -
Markham Township, York County,
where he spent twenty-five years of
his life and who sixty-eight years ago
married Miss Hannah Buttondale. He
always took a keen interest in agri-
culture, particularly was this evident
in the breeding of pure bred Short-
horn cattle, and while resident in
York County he was honored with
the presidency of the East York Agri-
cultural Society. In the spring of
1979 Mr. Grainger carne to Hullett
Township, where he purchased Lot
32 on the 12th Concession and where
he remained until his death. IIis
wife predeceased him thirty-three
years, since which time he made his
home with his son, John. In politico
the late Mr. Grainger was a Conserv-
ative of the old school, never waver-
ing in his allegiance to that party,
which fact is also applicable to his
adherence to the Anglican church, of
which he was a life-long member.
He leaves to mourn his loss, a fam-
ily of five, namely; Messrs. Benjamin
and E. J. Grainger. of Stayner; John,
of Hullett, and Mrs. Charles Lynn, of

James Abery, of Londesboro, follow-
ed by interment in Hope Chapel
cemetery.
and loved resident in the person of
Miss Mary Campbell. The deceased
had been a great sufferer for over a
year and her death must have conte
as a happy release from pain, al-
though her suffering was born with-
out complaint, and her passing will
leave a great void in.the family cafe
cls and in the life of the community.
Miss Campbell was a daughter of the
late John Campbell and was born 45
years ago on the homestead farm,
Lt 11, Concession 6, on which she
died and which always had been her
home. She is survived by two bro-
thers, James and Wilson Campbell, of
McKillop, and five sisters, Mrs. Robt.

lock; Mrs. Robert McKinley and Mrs.

repairing of autos, and has a garage
on the south side of Main Street in

Saturday last to Miss Nellie Priest,
only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James
Priest, of this village. The marriage
ceremony was quietly performed in
London, the young couple being un-
attended and they then motored to
Toronto and other places, where they
spent a few days, returning on Tues-
day night and will continue to he
residents of ourvillage. For g a
couple of weeks or so, the bride will
resume- her duties as bookkeeper at
Mr. Joynt's store, in order to complete
her accounts. Their relatives and
friends wish them all happiness.
Serious .holiday Accident. - The
24th of May while observed here as a
public holiday, passed over very
quietly as there was no celebration
ire the village, and nearly all our resi-
dents spent the day at different points
along the lake shore and at Mitchell,
where a celebration was held and the
horse racing were the centre of.in-
terest. But we regret to say the day
did not pass over here without .any
accident, for about eight o'clock in
the evening, while Mrs: Duffin, of
Thorndale, who was here visiting her
son, Dr. G. W. Duffin, of this village,
was crossing from the south side• of
our Main street to call at her son's
office, over Joynt's stores, she noticed
an automobile coming behind her and
hurried to get across the pavement,
and although the driver of the car, a
man from Zurich, saw her and had
plenty of chance to avoid coming in
contact 'with her, he appeared to -be-
come confused and excited and for
the instant losing control of the car,
struck her with such force as to
throw her from the pavement, near
the sidewalk, right on the cement
walk, dislocating her shoulder, break-
ing a couple of ribs and otherwise
injuring her. Mrs. Duffin was quick-
ly carried up to the office of her son
and as soon as her son returned from
Bayfield, where he -was when the ac-
cident occurred, he gave his mother
all possible attention and although yet
confined to her room, she is doing as
well. as can be expected. But being
a lady advancing in years, the acci-
dent came to her as a great shock
and her daughter, who was at the
home is here waiting upon her mother
who we trust will soon make a good
recovery.

nia, and Catherine Sells, of London,

Porter, hoth of this village, also as-
sisted, the former giving -readings

dren. We believe Mr. McLean has

three graduates received their diplo-
mas and honors and' scholarships.

the name of 'Roswell 1. Dougall, now
Dr. Dougall, whose photo appeared
in the London Daily as one of the
four who received honors. Roswell
received the J. B. Campbell Memorial
Scholarship in Medicine. He had al-
so the honor of being chosen as
Valedictorian of the Western Uni-
versity Medical School graduates and
his valedictory address is most high-
ly spoken of, which speaks for his
ability and the esteem in which he is
held. Dr. R. P. I. Dougall also dis-
tinguished himself as a soldier in the
recent great war, rising step by step
in promotions and we bespeak for
him a brilliant future in the medical
profession, which he enters upon so
well equipped. He is the last of our
many boys ,to bring distinction to
Hensall and locality, as our village
and district has had the honor of
some fine boys making their mark
