the pastor of Melville Church, Brits-

congregations that taxed the church's
capacity. Dr. Ross' pastorate has
been one of unbroken progress, He
leaves a flourishing congregation and
carries with him the affection of all

low townsmen. He left on Wednes-

the induction will take place to -day
(Thursday.) A farewell service was
held on Monday evening.

certain. Of the need for united effort
there can be no doubt.

Quite a few took advantage of the
cheap Torrey -Alexander excursion to
Toronto on Wednesday last ; it is a

any of the meetings.
Rev. L. Perrin, of the Presbyterian
Church, will preach here on Sunday
night next ; his subject will be—"The

Daniel Kaake, one of the parties
who were charged some time ago with
the theft of four ducks, was appre-

the arrest.
Communion services were held in
the Presbyterian church on Sunday
last, and the annual meeting of the
congregation on Monday afternoon.
Reports from the several branches of
the Church were read, which were all
highly satisfactory, and the financial
statement showed a very substantial
surplus. The membership is still in-
creasing, and altogether the Church is
in a very prosperous condition.
The suit against A. E. Esty of the
King Edward hotel here, for selling
liquor during prohibited hours, we
hear has been decided in favor of Mr.
Esty. The costs in this case must be
very heavy, as it has been tried in
Gorrie, Goderich and Wingham, and
8 or 10 witnesses had to appear at
each court. Mr. Clegg, the inspector,
will probably realize the necessity 'of
enquiring into the character of his
informants hereafter.
• On Thursday morning last the mil-
lers and those who live around the
north end of the mill pond, got a sur-
prise when they found the water over-
flowing the road to the depth of a
couple of feet in some places, and the
cellars full of water. On Wednesday
night, the water in the darn was quite
low, only four gates being left partly
open ; the frost, however, was suffi-
ciently severe to freeze what was al-
lowed to escape and in consequence
the open gates were closed up tight
by ice, and the water rose above the
frame work. The like was never
known to have occurred before, and
may never do so again, or at least for
a very long time ; fortunately little or
no damage was clone.

On Monday evening last Mr. D. Mc-

last fall from Geo. Gillies, We wish
him success in his new home. Mr.

south of Whitechurch.
It is an old saying that one trouble
never comes alone, and Mr. R. Thomp-
son's experience of the past year and a
half goes to prove the saying. About
November, 100.1, his son Nelson fell off
a load of furniture he was moving for
Mr. J. Mowbray, and broke his leg
and dislocated the knee of the same
leg. He was laid up the most of the
winter, and now goes with a short leg.
On the 30th of June last his eldest son,
Ralph, was taken ill ; at first it was
thought to be sunstroke, then fever,
and finally it seemed to develop into
inflamatory rheumatism. The trouble
all seemed to settle in his lower limbs,
which were swollen and very painful,
and for months it was thought he
could not live. When he was at his
worst the three youngest children
were taken with a very severe form of
whooping cough. The youngest of
these was a baby about a year old. As
the weather grew colder the boy
Ralph began to improve to such an
extent that about Xmas time he was
able to go out for a drive and was im-
proving until Tuesday, the 23rd inst.,
when he was taken with appendicitis.
Medical aid was promptly secured and
the disease was checked in time to
prevent an operation being necessary,
and now he is again improving. Dr.
Jamieson was the attending physician
through all this boy's sickness, and de-
serves great credit for his skill and
perseverance.

Startling But True.
People the world over were horrified
on learning of the burning of a Chi-
cago theater in which nearly six hun-
dred people lost their lives, yet more
than five times this number or over
3,000 people died from pneumonia in
Chicago during the same year, with
scarcely a passing notice. Every one
of these cases of pneumonia resulted
from a cold and could have been pre-
vented by the timely use of Chamber-
lain's Cough Remedy. A great many
who had every reason to fear pneu-
monia have warded it off by the
prompt use of this remedy. The fol-
lowing is an instance of this sort :—
"Too much cannot be said in favor of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy and
especially for colds and influenza. I
know that it cured my daughter,
Laura, of a severe cold, and I believe
saved her life when she was threat-
ened with pneumonia."—W. D. Wil-

There was quite a time with some
wild steers at R.W n

y
These steers were sold to U. Schmidt
of Clifford, last spring ; he could not
get thein away, they went wild, so
the Gorrie butcher thought he could
handle them. They went wild again
at the sight of a butcher, and broke
away again, so the men had to bring
their rifle into play and shoot them.
They managed to get the animals
about a mile away from the place.

Let not my star of hope
Grow dim or disappear ;
Since Thou on earth hast wept
And sorrowed oft alone,
If I must weep with Thee
My Lord, Thy will be done.

Respectfully yours,

A PIONEER GONE. --An old and
highly respected resident of East Wit-
wanosh, near Belgrave, Mr. John
Owens, passed away early Tuesday
morning, Jan. 23rd, at his residence,
in his 77th year. Mr. Owens had
been in poor health for nearly three
years, and his death came not unex-
pected ; he gradually sank away. De-
ceased was born in county of Ferma-
nagh, Ireland, in 1828. He came to
Canada in 1847 and settled in the
.township of King, where in 1853 he
married his surviving wife, Miss Eliza-
beth McCrae, then a bright young
woman, daughter of the late John Mc-
Crae of Morris, and sister of Charles
and Wm. McCrae of the same town-
ship. They moved to East Wawa -
nosh in 1853, where they took up a
farm of land, the whole country being
then a howling wilderness ; that was
about 53 years ago. He cleared up his
farm and has resided thereon ever
since. Mr. Owens was noted for his
honesty and uprightness, and in the
early days his door was always open
to land -seekers and strangers, for
they were many in those days. He
was one of the kindest neighbors, al-
ways ready to lend a helping hand.
He will be remembered as a kind hut -
band and a loving father, for which
his family will cherish kind reeollec-
tions. Mr. Owens was a Methodist in
religion ; in politics a Conservative all
his life. He was an Orangeman, hav-
ing joined the order when a boy in
Ireland, for which due respect was
shown by the neighboring lodges at-
tending the funeral, His brethren of
the L. O. L. placed a beautiful wreath
on his casket. Mr. Owens leaves to
mourn his loss, his sorrowing wife,
seven sons and two daughters. The
sons aro-James, Charles and Henry
of the N. W. T., Matthew of Mani-
toba, Georg(' at Red Deer, John of
Bruce Mines, and Robert of Last Wa-
wanosh. His daughters taro --••Mrs.
Brandon of Portage Ica Prairie, and
Ella at home. The funeral was very
largely attended and was conducted
by Rev. A. 1 . Jones, assisted by Rev,
Burwash of Winghatn and Rev. Heti-
leyfBlyth. o h bar. and Mrs. J. Owens
of Brace Mines, M1'. Tilos. Owens of

During the freshet last week, and
owing to the cid channel of the river
being partly filled in, and no outlet
for water when it did get in, the water
backed up and entered the basement
of the Blyth flour mill to the depth of
two feet 10 inches. The basement
contained 1300 bushels of oats and 500
bushels of barley, all of which was
destroyed. The elevators and build-
ing were also seriously damaged. The
railway contractors had it gang of
risen working the greater part of Sun-

water from getting into the old river
channel. This they succeeded in do-
ing by night.
