Fatal Motor Accident.—Word was
received here on Monday evening that
Mrs. John Cameron, formerly of Sea -
forth, had been fatally injured by be-
ing struck by an automobile at West
Palm Beach, Florida. The accident
occurred on Monday night and Mrs.
Cameron passed away the following
morning at 9 o'clock. The deceased
was a daughter of the late Mr. and
Mag. David Walker, of Tuckersmith,
in which township she was born. Last
fall she left Seaforth to reside in
Florida, and the news of her tragic
death came as a great shock to her
family and friends here. The remains'
will be brought'°7to Seaforth for inter;
ment. 11
Snowmobile.. --Last week Mr. W. 'A.
Crich had delivered to, him in Sea=
forth, the first snowin bi le to be used
in Western Ontario. The machine
was purchased through Mr. J. F. Daly,
the local Ford agent, and is giving
perfect satisfaction. During the sum-
mer months Mr. Crich uses three large
trucks for his bread delivery, and dur-
ing last winter he found it impossible
to fill his customers' demands for
bread, when delivery had to be made
with horse drawn vehicles, It was
to overcome this that he purchased
the snowmobile, which aided by ship-
ments by express, will cover his large
territory. The snowmobile has had a
pretty severe test during the week, as
this winter so far, has been an ex-
ceptionally severe one, with almost as
much snow now as we have at any
time during an average winter, but
it }las done everything asked of it.
On Wednesday of this week it covered
something over 60 miles easily. It
is as easy to operate as a Ford car,
can turn out on any kind of a road,
and will go over a drift of snow, any
depth. In fact, all roads are alike to
it, whether broken or -not, and it has
already saved an immense amount of
time, labor and expense for Mr. Crich.
A Seaforth Boy In Texas..— The
Angleton Times of Angleton, Texas,
under date of December 18th, makes
the following reference to an import-
ant appointment "recently received by
Mr. George E. Badge, of Brazoria,
the same State. Mr. Badge was born
and raised in Seaforth, and is not
ashamed of that fact either, although
for many years he has resided in the
States: "The Commissioners' Court
has appointed three commissioners
for the newly created navigation
trict, a bond election for which v
held on December 4th, When: olie`ni
