KINDNESS NOT FORGOTTEN
There is a family of tories living
' in a remote corner of this riding, who
are anxious to see Frank Rennie, lib
eral candidate for South Bruce, sit in
the next legislature. It is because
: of a little incident that happened sev-
1 eral years ago. Mr. Rennie was con
ducting the livery and bus business
in Walkerton at the time. One morn
ing the buss called at the hospital for
a lady who had been sick and was .-re
turning home. She was in a rather ner
vous condition and after she got in
to the rig she found she had lost her
purse and railway ticket. The late
Mrs. Rennie, who was in the buss
and was trying to make the poor wo
man as comfortable as possible, said:
“'Oh, it’s alright. I’ll tell Frank about
it-” At the station Mr. Rennie got j
her a ticket and put her on the train
for home in a more cheerful state of
mind. He soon forgot the incident.
The other day he was making some *
calls in the country and came to a
house where the farmer was not at
home. He did not recognize the good
wife at first, until she reminded him
of what had happened that day at
the G.T.R. staion. “I hear you are
running for parliament,” she said.
“We are Conservatives, you know,
but you don’t need to worry about our
votes or our son’s. My husband is
back in the field and it would certainly
please him very much to meet him.”—
