Wedded At "Sherwoode Farm."
The residence of Mr. and Mrs. J. L.
Little of 'Turnberry, known as Sher-
woode farm, was the scene pf a very
interesting event on Sept. 25th, when
their eldest daughter, Miss Alice Jean,
was united in marriage to Mr. J. R.
Cunneyworth of Toronto. The bride
was handsomely gowned in cream silk,
trimmed with oriental lace, and car-
ried• a bognet of bridal roses. She en-
tered the drawing -room accompanied
by her father, the groom awaiting her
under an arch of evergreens banked
by ferns. Rev. D. Perrie performed
the ceremony in the presence of a
large number of guests, the wedding
march being played by Miss Torrance
of Goderich. Congratulations follow-
ed, and then the wedding repast
claimed attention. The bride and
groom left on the afternoon train for
Elora, Meaford and other points, after
which they will reside in Toronto,
where the groom has an excellent
situation as foreman in a large manu-
facturing establishment.
Foot Amputated.
Mr. Geo. Awde (formerly clerk in
Smith & Pethick's hardware store
here) was in town on Thursday last.
Mr, Awde is now in business for him-
self in his home town, Drayton.
Shortly after leaving here (about six
years ago) he received a severe cut on
one leg, below the knee, by a piece of
glass projecting from a box. It gave
him considerable trouble for some
time, and finally gangrene set in, ne-
cessitating the amputation of the leg
between the knee and ankle. Many
of Mr. Awde's friends here had not
heard of the accident, and were much
surprised to see him using a crutch
and cane. His trip here was chiefly
to interview a niau in Lucknow who
makes artificial limbs, and we under-
stand that he gave the order for one,
which he hopes will enable him to
walk without the aid of a crutch.

pions of the' Lakeside League, after a
series of well -contested games. The
final game was played here Tuesday.
For the first three innings Wingham
made no runs, while, owing to errors,
Teeswater made four in the second
and two in the third, leaving the score
at the end of the third innings 6-0 in
favor of the visitors. In the fourth
and fifth, Wingham evened up, and
both teams played hard. No more
runs were secured 'by Teeswater, but
in the 8th innings Wingham added
two runs, and in the 9th six more, and
then the innings was not finished. It
was growing dark, and the score of 14
to 0 in favor of Wingham was too
much to overcome. The battery for
Wingham was Dunlop and Britton ;
for Teeswater, McCaig and Good.

Teeswater boys play well, and appear

A Good Address.
On Monday evening Principal Mus-
grove favored the Epworth League
with an excellent address on "What
we should read." He first dealt with
the question—"Why we should read,"
pointing out the advantages that a
good course of reading gave a young
person. Among these he mentioned
(1) Information. (2) Culture. We
could not read the works of great au-
thors without being refined by their
elevated thoughts and beauty of ex-
pression. (3) Social benefits derived,
by being able to discuss live questions
intelligently with others. The habit
of reading would also save many a
young man from the blighting influ-
ence of the saloon and billiard room.
Good books should be read at least
three or four times to thoroughly un-
derstand and assimilate the thoughts.
Reading should not merely be reading
words, but a study of the book. Ho
advised young people to form a library
of their own, and referred to the stan-
dard authors on history, biography
and fiction. He strongly urged young
people not to read light, trashy fiction,
as the thoughts received when young
would reappear in later years with in-
fluence for good or evil. Mr. Mus -
grove's excellent address was much
;appreciated,
Rev. W. G. Howson, pastor of the
Methodist Church, will speak upon the
following subjects next Sunday i--11 a.
m., "The -richest legacy any one ever
left to his successors" ; 7 p. rn., "The
heaviest word in the universe; a word
without moods, tenses, or conjuga-
tion ;
onjuga-tion; a stray word from the languages
of the gods." Stridents and strangers•
specially welcome. Fellowship meet-
ing at 9.411 a, nl, in the lecture ronin.

Robt, Thompson met with a very seri-

The anniversary services of White-

lantyne of Knox College, Toronto, de-
livered two powerful sermons, and the
audiences listened with rapt attention.
In the afternoon, Rev. D. McKerroll
of Lucknow preached a most excellent
sermon. The teameeting on Monday
evening was a decided success. After
a sumptuous repast in the basement,
a rich intellectual treat awaited the
audience upstairs. The programme
was one of the best ever given here.
Among the items were—a fine duet by
Miss Mason and Mr. Cline of W Ing-
ham, a solo by Mr. Cline, good selec-
tions by Misses Douglass and Murray
of Lucknow, excellent solos by Miss
Chisholm, and readings by Mr. Graces-
of
raceyof Wingham. There were also ad-
dresses by Revs. Finlay, Petrie and
Craw, which were listened to with
close attention. Mr. Finlay took for
his suhjeet—"Grease" or "lubricators",
aptly applying this homely subject to
social conditions. He named some
of the social lubricants as courtesy,
commendation and optimism. Mr.
Craw, who followed, enlarged on these
and gave some laughable illustrations
from his own experience. Mr. Perrie
spoke chiefly on the mad rush for
wealth and social distinction, that
characterizes the present day, charg-
ing it with a great deal of the friction
that exists. The whole anniversary
was very successful; the proceeds
were over $275.00.

Rather a furious runaway occurred
here about seven o'clock last Sunday
evening when a horse belonging to
Flemming Granger of Grey came
down the road at full speed with only
the buggy shafts attached to it. It
first ran against a barb wire fence at
the store, cutting its side badly, then
it ran across the road and into Vic-
toria hall sheds, where it upset two
buggies, doing considerable damage to
both. Sant. Snell had quite a narrow
escape frunl being seriously injured,
as 1}e was just abot{t to come oat of
the shed In the satne place as the
horse entered. It appears that the
horse had token fright just a short
distance from Jamestown and bolted,
throwing its occupants ant and get-
ting rid of the buggy also. It is for-
tunate that the result was not more
serious,
