Obituary.
Another pioneer, after a somewhat
protracted illness, has gone to his eter-
nal rest, Mr. Thos. Ching, of Hae town-
ship, passed away on the 5th inst, at
the age of 65 ,years, 9 months and 23
days. Deceased was born in Devon-
shire, England, and emigrated to this
country with his parents, about 50 ,yrs.
ago,settling on the farm in this village
now known as the Gidley estaPe, which
at that time was a vast yilderness.
Enduring the hardships of early sett-
lers' life, single handed for 6 years, he
took unto himself a partner in the year
1848, they then settled on the farm
which he occupied until the present
time of his death. Seven years ago,
she, whc was the sharer of ins joys and
sorrows passed a way. They raised a fami-
ly of 13 in number, ser -en boys and six
girls, who are all grown up to man
and womanhood. Mr. Ching was al-
ways a pushing: and energetic farmer,
and succeeded in making a comfortable
home for himself and family. His
house was always open to receive stran
goys and through this corteous feeling
he made many friends. In.politics he
was a Reformer and in church matters
a Methodist. , His remains were interr-
ed in the Exeter cemetery on Tuesday
afternoon when a large number of rel-
atives and friends followed his remains
to their last resting place. We trust
however, that our loss may be his gain,
that Eye which neVer slumbers nor
sleeps will guide, protect and comfort
those who are left behind, as he was
always an obliging neighbor, a land
husband and a loving fathers
