Mr, Turnbull has purchased another farm of 250 acres in the county of Lambton, paying for it $10,600. IIo intends removing in the spring. Mr. Turnbull is an old and highly respected resident of the township, and he has many friends who will regret the removal of himself and his estimable family. But what will be Huron's loss will be Larnbton's gain. Dir. Wm. Fulton, also of this township, on the same line as Mr. Turnbull, only further south, has also sold his farm of two hundred acres, stock, implements and crop, for twelve thonsaud one hun dred dollars.

Now the topers think they will die of starvation and the other side say they will be rolling in wealth.

However, Mr. Allen failed to appear and it was suggested that we have some enter- tatumout, so as the people might not have their journey for nothing. It was suggested that any one who felt dis- posed should speak their sentiments on the question, A number were called en, finally a young man rase and spoke hia sentiment and was well applauded by all. The chairman urged others to speak; failiug to do so, he called on me. My object was to amuse, not to enter into prohibition much. After giving a number of auecdotes, I thought welr to spend a few minutes on the weakest points of my intended discourse. Be- fore doing so, I said, I was not desirous, of influencing voters and am certain, I said nothing to offend any reasonable person and nothing I cannot prove. As soon as I closed I was surprised to hear the expressions that "those who voted for prohibition or, 'yes,' voted for Gad, those who did not s0 vote, voted for the devil and would be in eternity cast out" Then expressing a desire to ask mo one or two questions, permission granted, he wished I would stand up before him and say if I was a Christian, I at once complietl; then was I convert- ed, I replied. Then he quoted the text : " Look not on the wine wheu it is red, or giveth its color, in the cup, or stind- eth erect." I answered this according to science. He made a gesture signify. ing that he didn't believe me; that he didn't like to hear persons not Christians speak in public. I spoke not one word to him .after I left the platform, but to reply to his questious. I answered every question he asked me as far as I knew. I had no notion of putting one word of the transaction of the meeting in print, but as a report had been cir- culated through Exeter and elsewhere, that I was unable to answer one single question this young man put to me, I beg to state that this statement is ut- terly untrue and without foundation. There were many from the second and third concession of Stephen present and some from Exeter, notably, Albert Ford, butcher. Enquire of them as to this report. The young man probably was not aware that he, that night broke the laws of man, as well as the laws of God. Out of respect to the family I withhold the young man's name. The worst feature of all is that report, in which it was stated I was unable to answer any of the questions put to me by that young man. You are aware, Mr. Edi- tor, that in one of my articles on this prohibition question I stated, that if auy one could convince me that law was an educator I would go over to the other side, Education has been adopted by the prohibitionists for over 50 years to educate up to the prohibition line. It appears that by means of working on the passions of the people up to the time of the plebiscite vote a few years ago they then, in Ontario, piled up a majority of 81,000 in favor of prohibi- bitten. That educative work has since been going on until last Thursday. In summing up the result of their educa- tive policy, it was found that they had educated up to the line of demarkation between prohibition and anti-prohibi tion with such an impetuosity, that ac- tually 71,000 prohibitionists passed the boundary, far into anti • prohibitionary territory. You are right Mr. Potts, keep up your educative system and by two years from now every prohibitionist will join the 71,000 wh - went over last Thursday. C. PRouvY. 4111.

The animal had broken from the post, and after circling around several times with the buggy, ran into a wire fence and then started for home. -The Us - borne and Biddulph Reeves met at Cave's corner the other day for the purpose of letting gravel contracts.

WEDDED. -A very pretty wedding took place at the residence of Mr. Jas. Handford, Sept, 28, when his neice Miss Hcttie Handford, of. London, daughter of the late Isaac Handford, of Exeter, was united in wedlock to Mr. C. E. Gleed, of London, the Rev. S. Salton tying the knot.
