MAnRIED. — An interesting event
transpired at the Presbyterian Manse
in Clinton last Wednesday shortly
before noon. It was the marriage of
Mr. Angus McKinnon to Miss Alexia,
second daughter of Mr. J. R. Kennedy,
both of Colborne. The lady and gen-
tleman are well and favorably known,
the bride being niece to Deputy -Reeve
Kennedy. While in town Mr. and
Mrs. McKinnon were the guests of Mr.
and Mrs. Kennedy, and in the evening
returned to their comfortable farm
home in Colborne. Their many friends
wilt wish the happy couple long life
and abundant prosperity.
ANNIVERSARY SERVICES.—The S.S.
anniversary services in Willis (Presby-
terian) Church last Sunday were high-
ly successful. Rev A, Stuart addressed
the children and parents in the morn-
ing on `Chords stud r aLrt• Ropes,"
showing very clearly and forcibly that
sin in the mildest forth of a cord, if
continued, would become a cart rope
and hold the sinner so firm that there
would he little or no chance of escape.
The deliverance was interesting and
profitable throughout. In the after-
noon Alfred Day, sectetary of the Pro.
vincial Sabbath School Association,
addressed the children on"Thy Word
is a light to my feet and a lamp unto
my path." Mr Day is decidely a chil-
dren s man and held the close attention
of the little folks throughout the
whole service, imparting practical
thoughts that will surely have a last-
ing effect. He also preached in the
evening to a large congregation. As a
whole the services were well attended,
and the offerings liberal, which will go
to the Sabbath School fund.

THE LATEROBERTHALL,—AS intim-
ated in last week's NEWS -RECORD, Mr.
Robert Hall, a former resident of
Clinton, was accidentally killed at or
near Toledo. The particulars at hand
go to show that Mr. Hall was the head
engineer on the steam sand barge
Laura D, plying between Sandusky
and Toledo. No person witnessed the
accident. It is supposed that he was
oiling some of the machinery. A
metal pully broke and he was knocked
onto a. belt and thrown against the
side of the boat, death being instant
as far as known. He was found dead
itt the forward part of the boat by
Capt.Gillespie. The Engineers Associ-
ation, of which deceased was an honor-
ed member, had the remains conveyed
from Sandusky to the family residence
at Toledo. The funeral took place
under the auspices of the Foresters
and Marine Engineers, (tire service
being conducted by Rev. S. G. Ander-
son of Westminster Presbyterian
church) to the Forest Cemetery. A
Toledo paper says:—"Mr. Hall had been
engineer at this port for several years,
and bad the regiu'd of every one who
knew him. He was kind and pleasant
in his manners, as well as honorable in
every way. He leaves a wife and two
children—one four and the other one
year Aad—to mourn his loss." The de-
ceased was born on the Lake Shore
about mile north of Bayfield, some 40
years ago. ...His parents are deceased,
and the only near relative in Canada is
his brother, Mr. Frank Hall, who re-
sides in Clinton.

DEAlII OF AN OLD REBIDENT.—Th
St. Catharines Journal thus refers to
the late Thorpe Holmes, eldest brother
of Mr. E. Holmes, formerly editor of
the Clinton New Era :—"Although not
unexpected, to -day it becomes our
duty to chronicle the death of one of
the old landmarks of this city. Calmly
and peacefully, Mr. Thorpe Holmes
passed away to the great silent shore
on 'Wednesday night, at the ripe age
of 82 years. To many of the rising
generation the deceased gentleman
was almost unknown, and yet in days
past there were few in our city more
deservedly respected. One of a large
family, he was born in the town of
Grantham, Lincolnshire, Eng., where
he learned the printing trade, and
came to Canada in or about 1835. It
was the stormy tithes antecedent to
McKenzie's rebellion, and as a young
man imbued with strong respect for
the constituted authorities, was one of
the first to enrol himself in the militia,
and then, living in Brantford, started
a newspaper called the Sentinel. The
venture Wag not a success, and he
moved to this town in 184.3, and assum-
ed control of the Journal, which he
very successfully conducted until 1857,
passing through the great crisis which
occurred in business after the close of
the Crimean war. After disposing of
his interest in the newspaper, he pur-
chased some farming property on the
hill beyond lock 2, old canal, on which
he erected a large brick house, and
devoted his attention to farming and
fruit, growing. with fair success. He
was a man of wide intelligence and
sterling integrity, and one with whom
it was always a pleasure to converse.
Of late years he was in poor health,
but always cheerful, and in his depar-
ture it, is pleasing to know that a good
man has closed his career, with an
abiding faith in the Great Master and
His promises."
