THE LATE WM TOWNSEND.—Brief reference was last week made concern- ing the demise of Mr Townsend, and the following additional particulars will prove of interest: -He was born in January, 1828, in Nottinghamshire, England, and in April of the sameyear his father, the late James Towngend, sr, set sail from the shores of old Eng- land to find for himself and family a home in the new world. They landed in Little York, now Toronto, in June of the same year, and settled on a farm in Chinguacousy township, Peel county, where they remained until 1834, -when the Huron tract attracted the attention of settlers. They started westward with an ox team, and came all the way through the bush, the Huron road just having been chopped out, they arrived at what was known as VanEgnionds, and entered into' negotiations for land from Mr Henry •Ransford, and settled on the bank of the Hayfield river, where the late Jas Townsend, sr, died, and the subject of this sketch ' succeeded his father and provided for his mother and brothers and sisters until they got to man's or woman's estate. In the year 1850 Mr Townsend was married to Mary Jane Ashton, from which union there re- mains five sons and three daughters. The eldest being Samuel Townsend, in the employ of the Manitoba govern- ment, in the Land Title's office, Bran- don, for the last three years.
