Some days ago Mr. and Mrs, Ed.
Morrison and daughter, Emily, paid
a welcome visit to Mr. W» A,
Johnston. Mr. Morrison at one
time was one Of Mr. Johnston’s
school trustees in No. 4, Stanley.
One day recently Mr. Johnston
had a pleasant visit from Mr. and
Mrs. Chas. C. Pearce, of Clinton,z
and also that lady’s parents, Mr.
and Mrs. Thomas Anderson, of Ash
field. A unique experience that
Mr. Johnston has had, is that Mrs.
Anderson for a number of years
was one of his pupils in the Pub
lic School in No. *9, Ashflelft and
Mrs. W. C. Pearce, Exeter, Charles’
mother, was another of his fpiupils
in S.S. No. 2, Hay, when bhe was a
girl. In fact, he was the only
school teacher she ever had, Need
less to shy, Mr. Johnston is proud
of his two former pupils and is
more than pleased that though the
younger couple lived over 40 miles
apart they are to-day two hearts
that beat as one. He calls them
his grandchildren. If you wish to
read of their first meeting, look
up the poem on page 96 in Rural
Rhymes of Love and Friendship,
This book is for sale in the Times-
Advocate office. There are 104
