Mr. Hill was around as usual on Sat urday and was down town .Saturday evening until about 10 o’clock. His grandson, Harold Munn arrived home from work about 12 o’clock and the two, who sleei) together, had quite a chat before going to sleep. .Harold was awakened about two o’clock by the sound of his grand father’s labored breathing and at once summoned medical aid, but be fore the doctor arrived Mr. Hill had. passed away.- Mr. Hill lived for years at Hillsgreen where ihe successfully conducted a blacksmith business. Some twenty years ago he retired and with his wife and. daughter Ethel, moved to Hensall. A few years later Ethel was united in marriage to Mr. Robert Munn, but died shortly after the birth of their son, Harold, and the latter has since made his home with! his grandparents. Mrs. Hill predeceased her husband four years ago. Mr. Hill was a Liberal in poli tics, a Presbyterian .ih religion and also took a keen interest in sport. He was a familiar figure bn the streets of Hensall and will be great ly missed by his many friends and especially his grandson to whom the sympathy of the community is ex tended. The funeral took place from the home on Thursday afternoon conducted by Rev. McIlroy, inter ment in the Hensall Union cemetery. port during the past three seasons* but some do not realize what it costs to run a ball club. We ended the past season with a deficit—-largely due to the last game with the Red Caps which cost $65,00, In this the management was not to blame, it being left to the players, whether pr not to have the London team come up, Incidentally, Hensall owes a lot to Mr. Drummond and iMr. Fleming for their interest they have taken in baseball during the past three sea* eons, We have criticized them a great deal but we have to hand it to them* —-they stuck with it. Now that Mr, Fleming has left and Mr, Drum mond’s duties will not permit his usual' close interest; to start the ball rolling it be? not organize All the live Hensall isn’t fun, cheaj) How does this sound? teams as evenly matched as possible (Giants, Cardinals, Cubs, Pirates) or any other names. The old hardball players could be divided among the teams. And again—softball is far cheaper to play than hardball, can be played in less time, is just as fast, many who cannot play hard ball can learn to play softball. From the foui* teams we could pick one crack team to play the neighboring towns. These are only suggestions. Let’s have a little discussion through the weekly papers. Would it not seem too bad to go through the summer without sport of any kind to relieve the monotony? After we get this organized (?) two softball games twice a week are going to give us a lot of fun, are going to bring people in from the country and have a ten dency to stop our young people from going to other towns to spend their money.
