Douglas, Teacher. Death of a Well Known Resident. -Death removed a widely known and very highly respected resident of this township on Thursday of last week, when William D. Wilson passed away at his home on the second concession. The deceased was born in the County of York in the year 1850, where he lived until his marriage to Miss Katharine Sheardown, of the same ceunty, in 1873. Shortly after their marriage the young couple came west to A.uburn, where they resided until 1902, when they moved to the farm on the second concession of this town- ship, where Mr. Wilson continued to reside until his death. He is sur- vived by a family of two sons and five daughters: Mrs. George Hamilton, of A uburn ; Mrs, William Chapmen, Mrs, A. Cr. Broadfoot, Mrs. Albert S. Pepper, of Tuckersmith, and Mrs. Arthur Routledge, of Seaforth, and Mr. William Wilson, of Detroit, and Mr. Lorne Wilson, at home. The funeral was held from his late home on Saturday, June 30th, the 1%11 - bearers being his five sores -in-law and one grandson. Interment was made in Baird's cemetery.

Livingstone preached two tint sermons, which were appreciated very much. The choir rendered their se- lections in a pleasing manner. On Monday afternoon a good crowd as- sembled in Mr. Ed. Johns' orchard for the annual picnic. A male quar- tette, composed of Messrs. Will johns, Will Elford, Bruce Cooper and Alvin Pym sang several numbers, and Rev. Parnaby and Rev. Livingstone gave addresses, while Mr. Joshua Johns acted as chairman. Races were won by children and young people, and haseball games were played during the afternoon and evening. A splen- did strawberry supper was served -with the usual generosity. The -weather was all that could be asked for, for such an event, and we are sure that all present enjoyed them- selves to the utmost.

The Doig's came to America from near Stirling, in the southern Late of Pethshire,-Scotland, the first of them came in 1818 and settled -near Montreal. In 1836 three fam- ines left there and came to Amerieu; they were the families of John Doig and wife, whose maiden name was Jcan Paterson, Robert Bell whose wife was Margaret Doig, and Robert Paterson, whose wife was Janet Jack. It was mostly the descendants of those three families which were close- ly related when they left Scotland that were at this reunion, one of the members of the Paterson family,' in the person of Mrs. Margaret Pater- -son Willisehaving come all the way from Decker, Michigan, to be present. It. is seventy years since John Doig aria his wife, Janet McLaren Doig, and small family, settled on the farm itt Tuckersmith where this reunion was held, and which, at that time, was a solid hardwood bush, and the first log house was erected among the trees, and the night of the raising a dunce was held by the sturdy pioneers, the music bei furnished by Mr. Doig on his clarionet which he had brought from Scotland, and where he had played in the Deanston Band.
