A deep gloomy was cast over our
community when it was learned that
on Saturday evening little Billy John-
stone -only child' of Mr. and Mrs. Percy
Johnston, had' .passed' away. He had
been s'i'de only a few days and al-
though all that was possible was
done for him, it was of no avail.. He
was , a very bright , little fellow of
two years, the joy of lite parents,
who are stricken with grief by their.
very severe loss. The sympathy of all
theirneighibors and friends goes out
to then in their sorrow and bereave-
ment. The funeral, which, was held on
,Monday, was, very largely attended.
The service 'was conducted by Rev.
E. A. Poulter. Special music was giv-
en by' Mr. Geo. Paulter, also by the
Missed 'Hicks, of Stephen, which was
very suitable. The floral tributes al-
so were :very beautiful. The pallbe'ar-
ees were Lee McConnell, Russel Ere

Lloyd .Johnston and Elmore Stephen-
son, all uncles of the little boy.

Mayor A. D. Sutherland Re.
views Interesting History
of Local Bands at Garden
Party.
ONLY 2 MEMBERS OF
1891 BAND HERE NOW
Mayor Sutherland, iii speaking at
the Band Legion garden party on
Thursday eliiening, brought out a
number of very interesting facts con-
cerning the. present Seaforth High-
landers Band and it 'predecessors. .
The Mayor mentioned that he was
indebted to ,Mr. John Thompson, Mr.
James Watson and Mr. John M. Card -
no for inforlmiatien regarding Sea -
forth Bands, Mr. Watson and IMn•.
Cardmo being the two oldest bands-
men in town and bath life-tina resi-
dents. .
Seaforth was named in 1860 when
both Harpurhey and Egmondville' were
at the height of their glory, but was
not incorporated as a- 'village :until
1868 and as a town in 1875. Even as
a village, however, Seaforth had a
band and a good one, under the -lead-
ership of !Prof. Charles Fetzer, who
was also an accomplished violinist or
fiddler. The band practiced at. that
time itr a frac/et/building where the
Royal Hotel now stands. ' .
Some years latex, or about 1875,
Mr. Frank 'MeGoffic, took over the
leadership and he in turn was fol.
lowed by Prof. Packhani, the •band
praetisi.ng in the public school, the
hall in the rear of the old Commercial
Hotel which was. afterwards 'used' as
a !billiard room, and in the old town
hall. Budding musicians had to pay
for the ,privilege. of playing and the
membership fee wets $5 ij sr mane
which included instruction; the instru-
ments being owned by the town as
were the uniforms and Maisie paid
for by public 'subseriptionu
About this time two brothers, Jas:
and Hugh Scott, came down from
Clinton to play with the. Seaforth
Band and like all the 'Scotts. they
were excellent musicians. Practise
was held in the (now burnt) third
story of.. the Scott Block, over W. R.
Smith's grocery. •
In 1883, or fifty years ago, the
Ancient Order -of Foresters organize
ed a !band with James Scott as lead-
er. 'Mr. Scott 'vas a tinsmith and
worked for Johnston Bros. The late
Dr. James G. Stott was the 'first
president and treasurer; and the band
flourished for a number of years
when it took in other town bands-
men and formed the 'Seaforth Brass
Band.
After the Foresters and Seaforth
bands came the 33rd Battalion Band
in 1891, or 42 years ago, and in an
old photo that the Mayor now' has;
it will be noticed that but three of
the members still living here, Mr.
Wilbert Williams, Mr. T. G. Scott
and Mr. Wm. A. Freeman, the pres-
ent "leader of the SrafortJh High-
landers Band. The leader in 1891
was Charles Stewart.
The following tear Mr. Tommy
Millerwas leader, and another pic-
ture shows the following members:
Malcolm MtcLeod, 'Mlelvin . McPhee,
Herbert C. Box and Charles Brodie
in addition to the 1891 members.
Following the 33rd Battalion Band
the Seaforth Citizens' Band was or-
ganized to 'be followed in 1920 by
the present' Seaforth 'Hi - lenders, t eM1•eaders from time td. ti e incl ng
Tommy Brown, WilliecLeod, Mr.
McCauley and others. "Think a
m•ornent or two," said Mayor Suther-
land, "was it not the Band, Firemen,
football, lacrosse and baseball clubs
�o. t.
that reallyput ,e f rth on a ma
a h P
and areseerking to keep her there?'l
The Mayor concluded his remarks
with a reference to the splendid work
being accomplished by the local
branch of ethe Canadian Legion.

Enjoyed Expositor
• Winnipeg, Man., July 3, 1933.
The Editor, The Huron Extpositor:
Dear Sir: This is a brief Rote to
tell you how very much I enjoyed
the copy of The . Expositor which
came to -day and contained so inter-
esting an account . of the Dickson -
Scott reunion at Roxboro recently.
. ,In the first place, I most express
my warmest thanks to those who
made the gathering a possibility and
carried the arrangements through so
satisfactorily. The nv!hole idea was
'splendid and clearly shows that this
Scotch grit and energy which so man-
ifested itself in our forefathers is
not lacking in their descendahts at
Roxboro.
In the second place, let me express
to you thanks for the detailed and
complete 'manner in which the re=
union was so ably written up in your
paper. . We who are at a distance
Mill have fond memories •of our boy-
hood and girlhood days bes the old
Maitland and I am glad to 'say some
of the precious relics used in the old
hone at Gladswood, where I was
raised. are given plates , of honor in
my Winnipeg home.
There can be no doubt whatever
hut that the sterling and unselfish
lives of the Godly pioneers of old On-
tario have bean a deeded factor in
moulding the life of the entire Can-
adian people and particularly of
Western • Canada, where one meets
descend'anls of the old Ontario fam-
ilies practically c.;re day. With
kindest regards.
