HALE AND HEARTY. — Londesboro
boasts of a pretty old man, in the per-
son of Mr Chapple, who has passed his
92nd year. To see him doing his work
or on the street, one would not sup-
pose him to be more than 75 or 80, as
"he is exceptionally active for his age.
PROPERTY CHANGE.—Mr Jas. Camp -
ell, the very able and highly esteemed
Jerk of Hullett, has bought what is
own as the Hill property here, con-
isting of three-quarters of an acre of
and, on which is erected a couple of
frame .'houses and a couple of small
.,"shops. The price is said to be -in the
neighborhood of $700.
MUCH NEEDED.—That a new Metho-
dist church is much needed in this vill-
age has been evident for some time.
On ordinary occasion's the church is so
crowded that it becomes uncomfort-
- able for the attendants, and on special
occasions many are unable to get in.
This is a church -going community, not
only as regards the Methodist Church,
a
hut with reference to the Presbyterian
as well, and it is always good policy to
make ample provision for public ac-
commodation wherever possible. Fur-
ther than this, churches are to some
extent an index of character.
NOTES.—Mr James Campbell boasts
the ownership of a watch chain which
has been in his possession for over 30
years continuously. Mr O'Brien is the
owner of a ferret. Mr R. Adams looks
weak, but is rapidly getting back to
his former health and strength. Now
that our V.S. has left town we are to
be visited by Mr Perdue from Blyth,
and Mr Blackall, from Clinton. Bond
Lawrason, who has recovered from his
recent illness, is visiting here. Rev
Mr Hamilton preached in Egmondville
Presbyterian church on Monday, in
connection with communion services.
Look out for the great union dinner on
Thanksgiving evening. Our town was
almost taken by commercial travellers
on Tuesday; they were swarming. Mrs
Mountain sr., has purchased the pro-
perty of Mr John Shobbrook, known
as the Walker cottage, at about $250,
which is very low. Mr T. Miller has
moved his butcher stall, and is now the
first door north of the post office. Mr
Wm. Jordan returned from Manitoba
on Saturday; he got plenty of work. —
We are pleased to knew that Dr Agnew
is recovering, and expects to resume
practice ere long.

that Messrs 11. and J. Leech, of the
Maitland block, have found it neces-
sary to make an assignment. A sale
of their stock takes place on Nov. 11.
%KEEP AND DOGS.—So many farm-
ers'bave lost sheep through worry by
dogs, that we understand several farm-
ers have decided to shoot all strange
dogs found on their premises. There
are a number of good (jogs in the town-
ship, and if their owners wish to pro-
tect their lives, they should keep them
shut up.
To ENGLAND.—About the middle of
the summer Mr Wm. Argent was mar-
ried to Miss Martha J., daughter of Mr
James Cartwright, and not wishing to
go to housekeeping kept the marriage
a secret. Last week the happy couple

honeymoon and visit Mr Argent's pa-
rents.

DEATH.—The Perth Expositor of last
week thus alludes to the death of Mrs
W. H. Moon's father :—"We regret to
record the death on Sunday morning,
after a short illness, of an old friend
and life-long Conservative, Mr Wm.
Moore, of North Elmsley. Mr Moore's
eldest son was recently killed in a mine
at Lei,dville, Colorado, where he went
some eighteen years ago, and he took
it very much to heart, and at his ad-
vanced age of 79 years it doubtless
interfered with his rallying power. He
was the son of a soldier who had seen
much service in the Peninsular war,
and remembered Quebec in his earlier
years. While_sti11 a child his father
settled in Drummond, and with the
exception of about a year in the West,
near Chesley, Mr Moore spent almost
the whole of his long lifetime in Drum-
moni and Elmsley, where he was one
of our most prosperous and successful
farmers. He was a man of much gen-
ial humor, shrewd and intelligent in a
marked degree, winning the esteem
and respect of all who knew him. The
funer al o Tuesday was a very large
one, the ytocession extending nearly a
mile in length, the remains being in-
terred in Elmwood cemetery. Mrs
Moore died some years ago, and two
sons and four daughters remain to
mourn the loss of a kind and indulgent
father."

NOTES.—Mise d itabeson, of I4cKil-

No. 6, for next year, at a salary of $220;
this is not an exorbitant salary, but.

shed of the old school has been sold to
Mr F. Crich, who is remove g it to his

GONE AND DONE .IT.—After battling
against stern fate for years; after living
in the misery of solitary life with all
its lonesomeness and discomfort, after
resisting the winsome ways and charm-
i.rg manners of the tair sex, after all
his resolves to lead a life of singleness,
our esteemed friend Dr. Cooper has at
last capitulated, laid his heart upon
cupid's altar, bowed his neck to the ma-
trimonial yoke, and surrendered his
1 liberty to one of the fairest ladies in
our land. We congratulate our es-
teemed friend on his entry into the
state of matrimony, and trust that as
he and wife journey together along
life's highway, their path may be
strewn with roses, and their life one
of unalloyed bliss.
Summerhill.
SERMON,—On Sunday morning last
the Orangemen attended church here
in a body, when a sermon suited to the
occasion was preached by Rev Mr
Stout. He took as his text Jer. 5, 30
and 31 and showed conclusively that the
language contained in the above pas-
sage is wonderfully appropriate to the
state of affairs in our day as to Roman
e,ggressiveness, etc.
NEw FACTORY.—MrJosh W. Hill is
determined to push the business of
cheese making in this vicinity. It is
expected that by next summer the'
factory will be running full blast. Men
of Mr Hill's stamp are the cream of any
community, and he ought to be well
patronized by his fellow -farmers, in his
new undertaking, and as it is a private
concern the patrons are in better posi-
tion to make the profits, which are
sometimes considerably lessened by
officer's fees, etc.

MEETING.—Another of the series of
Gospel temperance meetings was held
in the hall last Sunday evening, and
the interest seems to be increasing. It
was conducted by J. W. McRoberts,
the popular teacher of Holmesville,who
gave an address full of solid temperance
sentiment and suited to stir up those
who stand aloof from the work. He
dwelt specially on the point that it is
not the saloonkeeper or those addicted
to the use of liquor who are responsible
for the crime, misery etc. caused by in-
temperance, but the so-called temper-
ance people who are not alive enough
to their work.
NOTES.—Messrs Beacom are engaged
in repairing the bridges a little oast of
here. Mrs A, Cousins, of Holmesville,
spent part of last week visiting her
parents here. Mr Jas. Sturdy and sis-
ter spent Sunda with friends in this
vicinity. Miss lora Miller has return-
ed home from her visit to Seaforth.
Messrs N. Bingham and W. Wallace
have returned from the West. Mr R.

lately purchased the waggon and black-
smith shops from Mr Brown, started
work here last Monday morning. He

along with -him.
NOTES—Mr SamuelLautenslayer was
made one of the happiest of men last
Saturday morning, hili better half pr e -
senting him with a daughter. Mrs H.
McBrien, of the Maitland Block, is
visiting her son in Goderich at present
The tea meeting which was to have
been held in the Presbyterian Church,
has been indefinitely postponed.
CROP NOTES.—The harvesting of the
root crop has been almost completed
in this neighborhood. Potatoes as a
whole are very good, mangolda beyond
expectation from appearances a short
while ago. In turnips there are some
good fields here and there, but on the
whole are very small and considerably
short of former years.
DEATH—We are sorry to have to re-
cord another vacancy in our midst.—
Geo. Pollock step -son of Mr Warner.
Deceased had been absent in Dakota
during the past slimmer, contracting
typhus fever; he started for home, ar-
riving here about two weeks ago. He
sank rapidly, until last Saturday,when
death terminated his sufferings. His
remains were interred in Ball's ceme-
tery, base line, on Sunday.
• Holmesville.
NEARLY A FIRE.—A few nights ago
three tramps who were in the village
early in the evening entered St. John's
church, to make their lodging. En-
ttance was effected through a window.
A quantity of kindling was left on the
floor, and the remains of a few coals
thereon, having evidently been put
there to burn the building, had the fire
not quenched itself.
CHURCH. — The quarterly services,
last Sunday, were well attended, and
accompanied with much spiritual pow-
er. Rev G. W. A ndrews preached one
of his usual appropriate and profitable
sermons. The quarterly official board
met on Monday evening, when a reso-
lution of condolence to Mrs Rudd was
passed. The following were elected
stewards, Messrs J. 11. Elford, R. S.;
W. Stanley, E. Acheson, J. McCart-
ney, Geo. Hclland, Geo. Cantelon, W.
Nesbitt. The subject for discussion at
Epworth League, on Tuesday evening,
+'
" nthusiasm, was ably presented by
F. C. Elford, and elicited a good deal
of discussion.
NOTES.—Mr James Miller has leased
the Murch house, and a small amount
of land adjoining, frorn Mr T. C. Pick-
ard, for a term of two years. Mr John
A. Qantelon returned home on Wed-

RESOLr7TION OF CONbOLENCE.—At
the meeting of the quarterly hoard,
last Monday night, the following reso-
lution was passed:—Moved by John
Trewartha, seconded by Edward Ache-
son, that we send this letter of condo-
lence to Mrs J. Rudd and family,
"Whereas it has pleased our Heavenly
Father, in his infinite wisdom, to re-
move from our midst your husband,
John Rudd, it is resolved that we, the
official members of Holmesville circuit,
desire to extend toyou our most heart-
felt sympathy in this hour of your sad
bereavement. We have bad in him a
kind and faithful brother; he was ever
ready to help in every good cause, and
though he is gone from our midst yet
we will always keep his memory fresh
in our hearts. We pray that you and
your family may have strength to look
above to him who doeth all things well,

pathy, and may God in his goodness

W. A. Haslam left here for Devil's
Lake, Dak., where he went into busi-
ness. he was a very popular young
man, and was made secretary of the
I. O. O. F. Society. This week a mes-
sage was received saying he had been
accidentally shot and .the body would
be brought home for interment. It
reached here en Wednesday, and was
buried from his father's residence on

heartfelt sympathy of all in their be-
reavemen t.
Porter's Hill.

buying horses, preparing for another
trip to the old sod; he reports favor-

PARTY.—On Friday evening of last
week a number of invited guests as-
sembled at the home of B. R. Higgins,
and report having spent a most enjoy-
able time in games, social chat and oth-
er amusements. Many questions were
brought up and discussed, the most im-
portant being that of procuring fire-
wood for fuel for the winter evenings.
Some expressed the thought that it
would be better to hew the wood, while
others were even as ridiculous as to

NEW OauroE Harr. —The Orangemen of
Gorrie and vioinity have erected a com-
modious ball in this thriving village. A
new orange Hall was dedicated at Gorrie,
on Tuesday, by Sovereign Grand ilfaster
Clark Wallace, Controller of the Dominion
Customs, and Grand Secretary Binning.
ham, assisted by tool members of the ord-
er. There was a crowded audience at the
concert in the town hall. Dr Chisholm
000upled the obair, among those present
were Messrs. E. L. Dickinson, Wingham,
Conservative candidate for the riding;
Thos. Farrow, ex -M. P., and John Mooney
and James Irwin, of Brussels; District
Master John Donaghy and ex -County Mas-
ter Henry Perkins. An address was pre-
sented to Mr Wallace congratulating him
on the ascendancy of Orangeiem in the
Cabinet at Ottawa. The Sovereign Grand
Master's reopense followed the example of
the address in its evasion of the political
question which was in the minds of the
audience, the Manitoba school question,
and because it did so some Orange stal-
warts were not pleased. That was the
subject which wag looked for, and it was to
hear the Sovereign's vitiate upon it that
many of those present attended. lllr Wal-
lace said: — " What we object to is the
thrusting of the hierarchy of the Roman
Catholic lhnroh into the public affairs of
the country. We do not believe those peo-
ple have anyright to thrust themselves in-
to or interfere with tbe affairs of Canada.
It is only -a few monthe ago that we had
the letter of the Bishop of Nioolet, in which
he boasted of having conspired to interfere,
and he claimed anooeeefully,wlth the course
of justice.. He claimed that he success-
fully subverted the course of jastioo in the
highest tribunal in the empire. I do not
know whether he was guooesefnl; I hope
he wasinot but it shows tbe means they
resort to to attain their ands."
