TWO BLOCK JINX ON SHUTER STREET Troubles Are Plenty On This Street It is a good thing we are not super- stitious for there would appear to be a jinx on the residents of Shuter St„ this autumn. In September. Mrs. VanNorman fell and broke her hip and a few days later, Mr. Claire Adanis, who resided next door, passed.away. Since then Mr. W. Leggatt in the next house has had the end of his thumb cut off by a machine in Browns' Factory. In the next house along the street, Mrs, j. Wade has had the misfortune. to have had two major operations within the last six months, Across the street from her Mrs. George Spotton suffered a very severe stroke for which she is still confined to the Wing- ham General Hospital. Next door to Mrs. Spotton's residence Mr. Alva Walker is •spending three •months;) in bed recuperating from a very severe heart attack, Mr. and Mrs. Oke seem to have escaped the jinx but in the next house Capt. W. J. Adams has been in bed suffering from bronchitis for the past week. Coming again to the West side of Shuter St., Mrs. Maude Dodds was very ill for several weeks but we are glad to say has recovered and is around again. Two doors from her place we find Mr. H. Johnson not as well as usual, he has long suffered from heart trouble. Coming to our own duplex, Mrs. F. W. French, who resided in the upper apartment passed away a month ago, after a long illness. This reads like along tale of woe, and indeed it is, but we think it is a record for two short blocks on one street in any town. ANOTHER ROAM BOY HAS RETURNED Frank Kelly Spent the Week-end Here Pte Frank Kelly, who returned from overseas last week, spent the week-end intown the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Har- vey`Groves.
