We hope to see a large number of our people go to Seaforth and give every possible encouragement to the home team, and that -the Cup will he brought to Clinton. THEY WANT Too MUCH.—The as- sociation of Canadian Underwriters seem to have a faculty for asking at least enough, and many think too much as far as Clinton is concerned. We are informed the Association is not satisfied with Clinton's fire pro- tection, and if the present class is to be retained demand the following :—"A, night patrol, from dusk to • daylight : two standard chemical fire extinguish- ers on reels ; chief of fire brigade to be fully paid and on constant duty ; two firemen to sleep every night in the fire hall ; alartn bell to ring automatically ; hook and ladder truck to respond to all alarms for fire." It remains to be seen whether the town will grant the • request. In all disastrous fires in Clin- ton of late years we fail to see where any of the above would have been of any service. "THE KING Is DEAD—LONG LIVE Tun KING."—The expression we believe is one used in France. On the death of the king his successor immediately takes pdssession of the throne, and the populace exclaim "The King is dead— Long live the Ring." Last week Mr. John Johnston was given credit for being the "king fisher' of this section, hut by the break of day on the 24th the "king" was dethroned by Mr. J. W. Biter and the latter takes to him- self the crown of glory by landing a handsome speckled trout weighing one pound two and a quarter ounces. The beauty was on exhiaition all day in Walter Coats' window where hundreds of people viewed it and declared the specimen to be one of the finest speckl- ed trout they had ever seen. Mr. Riter is the present "King fisher" and there will be considerable manoeuver- ing and rare sport before his record is broken and the present king dethron- ed. THE LATE ANTHONY ELT.IOTT,—The subject of this brief mention was one of our oldest and most respected resi- dents, having owned and lived on lob 31, Goderich township, since the year 1833, covering a space of 62 years. Born six miles front Enniskillen, county Fermanagh, he emigrated to Canada in the spring of 1833 along with the late Wni. Currie and John Leith, and remained a short time in "Middy York" and settled in Goderich town- ship in the fall. In 1838 be married Miss E. Hanley, eldest sister of Mr. Geo. Hanley, town, who predeceased Mr. Elliott•ten years ago. To them were born Mary, James, John, Mar- garet, Robert, Ann, Elizabeth and Sarah—James, Robert, Mrs. David Wilson, of Goderich, and Sarah surviv- ing. The deceased was one of the old landmarks that leaves behind impres- sions only that are good. By his sterling honesty and persevering i#fdustry and the ever watchword that lith was not right to owe any man, it is not to be woniered that his word was his bond and that he prospered and was on good terms with everyone. He was a typical Irish Orangeman and an active member of the organization for a great many years. In religion he was a faithful Episcopalian, and a very staunch Conservative in politics. His age was 84 years and 6 months. The funeral took place to Bayfield on the Seth inst. and was largely attended.
