H, Johnston at Victoria Hospital, whom we found improv­ ing. Qn our return we caught the train, at the Coiborne street stop. There we met Geo. Willis, who in­ formed. us that he had driven his brother-in-law, Clinton McCallum D.D.S., to the up-town station and <m the way home stopped again to say good-bye. We entered the train and I call­ ed the name McCallum. A man, who looked like T. H. McCallum, formerly of Exeter, answered, "I am McCallum,” He invited me to sit down. I said, "Would you by . any chance be Clinton McCallum?” He said, "I’am.” "Well, do you know me?" He said "No.” I said, "I have not seen you for 53 years and I would know you by your father, you should know me by my father," He began to guess and after he had named over several of those of early years, I said, “Did you know Willis Powell, who died?" He said, “Yes", or else he sits be­ side me." Then lie was surprised.
