This tribute is offered by Bandmaster Wench, in the name of the band and commit- tee: "It is with deep regret that we have learned of the sudden passing of Mr. Charles Woods, Goderich, the solo cornetist of the Clinton Band. Mr, Woods was an important contributing factor in the excellent progress of the band, and his faithful- ness, never -tiring efforts ' and cheerful attention and interest in the band will be greatly mis- sed. "The Clinton band, majoret- tes and committee have lost an important part of their organ- ization and to the next of kin they offer deepest sympathy. "A greater effort must be made now by every member of the band in gratitude for Mr. Woods' contribution. He had been bandmaster of the Goderich Blue Water Band and had been soloist with concert bands in England before com- ing to Canada." The concert of the Clinton Band with supporting artists in the CDCI auditorium on Sun- day night brought 300 people Out. There were 35 members of the band taking part.
