Council Meeting
The council met on Saturday ev
ening last at the residence of Clerk
Murdock with all the members pres
ent. The minutes of the last meet
ing were read and adopted on mo
tion of Petty and Cameron. Coun
cillor Priest reported that the drain
through the Wilson property to
drain part of Oxford street was com
pleted iand councillor Petty reported
the stage of the Town Hall had been
repaired. The Reeve addressed the
council for sometime on the last ses
sion of the County Council as it af
fected Hensail. It was suggested
there, in considering the motion of
Higgins and Kennedy asking for a
grant toward keeping up the road
east of Hensall, that the Reeves of
the two municipalities get in touch
with the provincial highway author
ities, and get a grant from them as
it was mostly provincial highway
trucks that went over the road. A
motion was also passed to petition
the government to pay 30 per cent,
of the cost of maintaining the back
streets of the villages and towns the
same as they pay for township roads
and also that the government and
the county had agreed to the mo
tion that at least 75 per cent, of the
money collected from each municip
ality be spent on the roads of that
municipality. The Reeve explained
that for a number of years, very
little of the money that was sent to
Goderich for highway purposes was
spent on Hensall roads. He stated
he was in Goderich on Tuesday last
and took the matter up with the
.county Engineer, and some $413.00
is 'being returned to Hensall tills
year. Some questions were asked
about the auditors’ report of 1927
and as to why the county rebate of
the cement road was not mentioned
in the audit. The Reeve explained
that to get the county grant each
year we had to send up t.o the coun
ty treasurer some $1527 and we re
ceived back $3055. The county
gave us ia rebate last year on the
amount we had to send up, so the
town treasurer did not issue a check
for that amount but received his
ual amount of $3,055.00 from
county treasurer. Other years
treasurer in his report of his
ceipts and expenditures would have
in his receipts the sum of $3,055 re
ceived from the county treasurer,
and in his expenditures he would
have an item of $15 27 sent to the
county treasurer. In 1927 he had
no expenditure, of that amount ol'
money, but the receipts were the
same as usual. The reeve also gave
a statement of the town’s finances.
A number of accounts were present
ed and order paid on motion of Priest
and Sangster. By-law No. 1.1 was
given its final reading appointing
the officials for the election. A
number of the windows in the com
munity shed having been broken, it
was ordered that they.are to be im
mediately repaired, and $5.00 was
granted to the firemen for the
Christmas Tree. Before the meet
ing closed Re'eve Higgins thanked
the council for their courtesy and
co-operation during the year which
enabled the council to get through
with a lot of work at a very reason
able cost. He stated that he ex
pected every department, the .school,
the hydro board, the public library,
and the council to show a surplus of
receipts over expenditures for the
year and hoped that the ratepayers
of the. village would see their way
clear to return the 1928 council by
acclamation. The council then ad
journed to meet again if necessary
at the call of the Reeve.

Death of Mr. Hairy Rhode
The many friends and acquaint
ances of Harry Rhode were grieved
to hear of his death on Thursday
November 22nd which occurred at
the 'home of his daughter Mrs. D. M.
Campbell, of Glasston.
Although it was known that Air.
Rhode was in precarious health and
that he was soon to pass, the news
of his death come as a distinct
shock to his many friends and neigh
bors among whom he had lived for
over thirty years. There probably is
not a single person in Cavalier who
upon hearing of 'his death, but voiced
deep regret and had nothing but good
things to say about 'him. He was
a patient sufferer, never complain
ing, during all his trying, and at
times painful sickness, and it is
stated that lie was always trusting
in Jesus, and received faith and com
fort from that trust to bear his bur
den. He was a kind and loving
father, home-loving and his family
and their comfort always came first
with him. His neighbors bear testi
mony to his character as a righteous,
and straight-forward m(an.
Harry Rhode was born May 23rd
at Dashwood Ont., in the year 1865
fand died November 22nd, 1928 and ’came to North Dakota in 1888. On
January 13th, 1891 lie was united in
marriage to Aliss Sarah iSdhluchter,
and they settled on a farm in the
Hamilton district land four years
later* came to Cavalier where he en
tered the employ oL’ the Cavalier Mill
ing Co., and was a faithful employee
for over thirty years, and until his
health failed in 192 6 when he re
moved to the home of his daughter
during the summer months. Mr.
Rhode leaves his wife and five chil
dren, Mrs. D. Al. Campbell, of Glass
ton; Mrs.. J. Jacksoil, of Cavalier;
'Airs. E. Brown, of Concrete; Air. V.
