strong plea for having some better
Method of having the sidewalks clean-
ed of snow, than prevails under the
by-law; the other members agreed in
the main with his arguments, but un-
• til the present by-law was repealed or
enforced, they saw no possibility of
Change; a motion was passed instruct-
ing the Mayor to require Inspector
Wheatleyto enforce the existing by-
• - law. Mr Kennedy reported on the
addition to the fire appliance through
thecourtesy of Mr James Fair, and a
motion of thanks to Mr Fair was
unanimously passed. The Financial
committee recommended payment of
a nainber of accounts. The Mayor re-
ported what action had been taken
`concerning the Stanley estate, and a
petition to the Lieut. -Governor in
fJouncil was read, with instructions
that it be forwarded through the Local
member, Mr Garrow. The new ceme-
tery by-law was finally read and pass-
ed. The deputy -returning officers are:
Walter Manning, Thomas Johnston,
Thos. Walker and S. 3. Andrews.
Di/Amis.—We are very sorry indeed
to record the death of Miss Eva Chid-
ley,daughter of Mr Joseph Ohidley, sr.,
which occurred on Monday morning.
Deceased has' been ailing for several
months, and her death was expected,
but the blow is, nevertheless, a severe
One, especially to Mr Ohidley, who is
not himself in the most robust health.
She was yet in her teens, and con-
tracted her illness while teaching at
'liensall. The family have the sincer-
est sympathy of all, it is scarcely
heccessary to say.
