ZURICH SCHOOL FAIR The fourth annual School Fair of Hay Township district was held at Zurich on Wednesday, September 190e. The weather being ideal for the occasion, and as a consequence, a large crowd was present, Spe- cial mention must be made as to the numerous exhibits, in some class- es a6 high as eight to ten contest- ants for the prizes, which goes to show the keen interest manifested by o younger generation in the im- rovements along alt lines of the var- ious classes. Possibly the main out- standing feature was the exhibit of Master Edward Thiel, of the Bronson Line, Hay, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm.. Thiel, who has a two-year-old black steer trained to the extent that he hitches same in the top buggy and drove all over the grounds similar to a horse.

Arnold, Manager of the Molsons Bank, was leaving the post officer corner, after getting his mail, and when in the act of stepping from the sidewalk to the pavement directly west of the post office, Mr. C. Cartrtrbell chanced to be driving from the east on the pavement, and turning quickly at the post office corner on Nelson Street, he struck Mr. Arnold, who did not realize the car was turning at that corner, and he was thrown down with great force on the fine gravel, where his face was badly cut, but worse than that by far, the front wheel passed over his ankle breaking one of the small bones while the hind wheel passed over his body fractur- ing one of his )ribs, and as weave already stated, scarring his face frith the impact of the gravel. Mr. Arn- old did not lose consciousness and with the help of Mr,"A. Murdock and Mr. Eddy Berry, who were with him at the time and the former having a very close call, Mr. Arnold was able to reach home, but of course is now confined to his room under the doc- tor's eart. It will 1i ,ly i.e some weeks before he is able to resume his duties, but we are pleased to learn he is resting nicely and get- ting on as well. as could be expected. This accident, however, should im- press all drivers of cars to go very slowly on our Main Street and par- ticularly at the busy sections and eaabove all to exercise all possible care 'in turning corners slowly and to give warnings with their horns. Serious Fire, -On Friday evening of last week our residents were startled between the hours of 11 and 12 p.m. by the ringing of our fire bell and the cries of "Fire," whet it was discovered that the dwelling of Mr. T. Drummond, on Richmond St., North, had caught fire. The fire, evidently, originated from the kitchen part, where fire had been used some hours before the fire was discovered, in fact Mr. Drummond and his chil- dren had retired for the night.

However the walls are all raining intact and the rooms downs rs es- caped pretty well, but at ; `everal times it looked as if all the eliding would be destroyed. Mr. Drummond had a small insurance on the dwel- ling, but none on the contents, and much syinpathy is felt for Mr. and Mrs. Drummond and their young family in their loss and inconvenience of not been able to use their dwelling until a new roof and other, work is done, The Late Mrs. Alexander McPher- son. -On Monday afternoon last, the remains of the late Mrs. Alexander McPherson, late of Stratford, and for many years previous to that, a much reapected resident of our village, were brought from Stratford by auto hearse for interment in the Hensall Union Cemetery and were buried in the family plot. Quite a number of relatives and friends accompanied the remains from Stratford, including Rev. Mr. Matheson, of the Presby- terian church there, of which Mrs. McPherson before her late serious ill- ness was a very regular attendant, and who paid a high tribute to the life and character of the deceased. Rev. Mr. McConnell, of Carmel church of which Mrs. McPherson was a member, led in prayer at the ceme- tery and spoke very well and feeling- ly of the deceased. A large number from Hensall and vicinity met the remains at the cemetery to pay their last tribute of respect to one who was 80 well and favorably known here for so many years. Her late hus- band, Mr. Alex. McPherson, for many years a much respected business man of our village, and an Elder in Car- mel church, predeceased Mrs. Mc- Pherson a number of years ago.
