Will. Edwards has on a full gang of -men and is pre- pared to do work in his usual good style. Mrs. L. Walker and Miss Walker, formerly of this place, were visiting friends here last week and also 'ship- ping their household effects which were stored here, to their new home at Islington where Mr. Walker has purchased a general store. Mr. Walk- er was quite popular during his short stay in Beltnore and we wish them success in their new home. West Wawanosh. On Wednesday our old and honored citizen of Dungannon, Andrew Drea- ney, passed to the great beyond. Fath- er Time has reaped the harvest, and the departed pioneer will long be re- membered as a man of undoubted worth, a loyal citizen, a neighbor and a kind and affectionate father. Jesse Grummett, of the Nile, who has for some weeks past been very dangerously ill with an inward growth, is still about the same. Mr. Grum- mett's many friends at Nile, and for miles around, sympathize deeply with him in this sore affliction, which of course means that he must quit busi- • nese as blacksmith. Among those who left recently for Manitoba, were Mr. and Mrs. Jas. Thompson and family of Belfast, who have taken up land near Woolsey, As- siniboia ; W. J. Humphrey and family, of West Wawanosh ; A. and B. Durn- in and Jos. Campbell, of West Wawa - nosh, and Geo. Northcott, Sam Miller, Wm. Barber and his son James, Neil McCorvie and Dan.

Dr. Warrick of Brussels was summoned at once and went quickly, as it was bleeding very much. 1. Fordwich. On Friday morning last the hotel of this place was destroyed by fire. In- dependent of Mr. G. W. Ross we have a Prohibition town (for a time.) Mr. A. C. Sothern has been making improvements in his store occupied by A. McCurdy.

Dulmage, of Wing - ham, after spending the fall and win- ter in Ontario, is preparing to return home as soon as navigation opens.

A new furniture factory is one of �oa the new enterprises in store for Brus- sels. They are negotiating for the j purchase of machinery and will be ! heard from ere long, We hope their ; plans will formulate. Last Friday Mr. Thornton who re- sides near Bayfield and is a brother to Mrs. C. H. Bartliff, of Clinton, a form- er resident, was injured in the bush by a falling limb striking him on the head. He was rendered unconscious by the blow but we hope he will be able to rally from the serious ac- cident. ` The dog poisoners are at it yet. On Wednesday Gordon Mooney's fox ter- rior bid adieu to this world, the result of poison administered by some mis- creant. The dog was a family pet, and Gordon would just like to get bold of the poisoner. On the same day Geo, Deadman's dog also got a dose, but fortunately he got too much of the poison with the result that he is still alive and kicking. Since the woolen mills have closed down, considerable discussion as to the probable destination of the build- ing has ensued. The woolen mill busi- ness is a failure in Canada, owing mostly to there not being enough pro- tection on woolen goods, Opinions vary, but we are quite safe in saying that the machinery will be removed "to parts unknown," Morris. A few farmers did a little plowing last week. The Grand Trunk are fitting up the line fences along their line in different sections in Morris. Robt. Currie, of Sault Ste. Marie, a son of the late Isaac Currie, formerly of the 5th line, is here renewing old friendships. It is 7 years since he left Morris. Alex. McNeil, wife and family ar- rived here last week from Fort Wil- liam and will move to W. B, Wilkin - son's farm, 5th line, which they have bought. Mr. Wilkinson moves to his 150 acre farm near Ripley. They carry with them the good wishes of the com- munity. Jos. H. Sellars, of the 2nd con. of Morris, had a rather unique experi- ence with a ewe last week, We can hardly put it in print, but this is the substance of it. After removing the contents sufficient for two lambs Mr. Sellars left the ewe, but was agreeably surprised shortly afterwards on enter- ing the stable to find a young lamb frisking around the same ewe. Salem. Mr. `Vm, Weir had a successful wood bee on Monday afternoon, Mrs, A. McMichael, sen., of Wroxe- ter. is at present visiting friends in this part. Mr. and Mrs. Wm.

The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper will be administered in the Salem Methodist church next Sunday morn- ing, service commencing at 10,30. Miss Charlotte McMichael expects to leave on Saturday next to spend the summer with her sister, Mrs, Hugh McTavish, who lives near Stratford. Mr. Frank Mitchell, formerly of this place, is intending to spend the sum- mer in Manitoba. Mrs. Mitchell and family will remain in Wroxeter. We are sorry to learn that Mr. Chas. Muir had the misfortune of cutting his foot very badly with a sharp axe. We hope he will soon be able to be around again and that the result may not prove serious.
