place •on. -Monday J1y 2nti• a the
home of his 'brother-in-law, iti Hobt
Pearson. • Death is always sad, but it
is partleularly so, when a young naan
just entering on his life's • work, is
mown down by the grim reaper.
Never of robust health, he was during
last whiter feeling worse than usual.
About two months ago his congre-
gations in Manitima, very consider-
titely-"gave him three months' leave of
absence to conie east -and-see if he
could recuperate his health. After a,
short stay in Winnipeg he came to the
home of his sister, Mrs. Robert Pear-
son, for a few days and then went to
Hayfield to try the effect of the lake
breeze. •As soon as a vacancy occurred
he purposed going to the Sanitarium
in Muskoka. On Friday last how-
ever he became worse, and on Satur-
day the malady increased. On Sun-
day his brother-irelaw, went for • him
and with greet difficulty brought him
to his home, where he _expireda. few
hours afterwards at the early age of
thirty-five years. Deceased was a
son of Mr. Roderick McLeod, -of the
Second of Ttickersmith, and born
there- in 1871. He received a fair ,edu-
cation-in-the-public-•seheols-ef-the-
County, and finished his elemeetary
education a

'In 1892. he • joined the Presbyterian
Church, becoming a mernbex; of Willis
Chureh, Clinton. At that time he de-
cided to make the ministry his life's
wotk. • -Tit prepare himself for this, he
first took an Art's Course; at Toronto
University, and then entering Knox
College completed his divinity eourse
in due time. His health being always
feeble it required an indomitable per-
severance to carry ketch a long course
of study' to a successful issue. He
graduated in 1903. His first charge
was in Winnipeg,' where he remained
four Months. For the teat two years
he preached to two eoneregations near
Basswood, Manitoba, till compelled to
leave on acconnt of ill' health. His
mother died twenty- years ago, his
father Mill lives. Besides his father
