The sad event occurred at his residence in Langdon, North Dakota, on Friday; week. Mr. McDougall had been ill -with typboicl fever for about four weeks but the immediate cause of death was peritonitis. He was about sixty years of age. Mr. McDougall had been a resident of Seaforth for about twenty- five years. He came here from the township of Usborne and engaged in the butchering business. He gave up that basiness and removed to Dakota, where he took up land. He only re- mained there, however, about, two years, when he returned to Seaforth, and since then had been eogagecl in farming and droving. He removed from here last spring with his family and located in Langdon, Dakota, where two of his sons had been en- gaged in farming for some time. The announcement of his death will be received with feelings of sorrow and regret by his large circle of old friends in this vicinity. He was a straight- forward, honest good hearted man, who was esteemed by all who knew hint. We are also sorry to learn that Mr. McDougall's family has been fur- ther severely afflicted. Daniel, the the eldest son, is now just recovering from the fever and the two younger' brothers are now laid up with it. Thias there were four of the family sick with it at the same time. The sitacerest sympathy of many friends here will he extended to Mrs. McDougall and her family in this the hour of their sad and severe affliction.

The funeral tdok place yesterday to the Exeter cemetery. Dashwood Thursday was observed as a, holiday by om• villagers. In theeveoine• the Y. P. A. met as is their usual custom.- The meeting, however, wasat little mat of the ordinary, being a question drawer. The questions were handed in by the young people and weas an- swered by the pastor. It proved quite interesting and instructive. — Drs. Rollins, of Exeter, and Wishart, of London, were here on Friday in con- sultation with our local Dr. t consider the adviStibility of operating on Mr. KellermannSs' No operation took place, as the patient, who has -since died, WhS too week 'to be oPerated'upon.2--Mr. Alex.

SAn DEATIL—This week we haVe to record the death of one of opr much respected citizens in the person of Mr. Emanuel Kellerman n, who departed this life on Saturday morning,after short illness of ouly font, days., He at- tended Sabbath school and church ser- vice on Sunday as was his wonted -cus- tom and on Monday took his place i11. his uncle's store in , whose employ he' has been for thepast three years, little thinking when the day closed that his earth's work was also finished -which, only proved to be too true. Before the light of day dawned he was found to be ill and though all that medical skill and loving hands could do was done his life' could not be prolonged, his case aisiaming a serious aspect from the:- beginning. •The funeral on Tues- day showed the respect in which the deceased was held in the community as the spacicats church was filled to its very utmost. We believe there was never such a congregation in it since its opening. The funeral was conduct- ed by Rev. J. C. lgorlock, Who took as a text the words found in James 4-14, Rev. Finkbeiner, of Zurich, was also present and spoke a few words in the English language. Rev. Litt, of Credi- ton, came a little late. He, however, conducted the service at the grave. The bereaved family have the sym- pathy of the entire COMBO unity'in this their sad trial -but we trust a happy reunion will take place some day in that home which has been prepared for all those who willbeed.the Usborne A GRAND SucoEss.—The conert S. S. No. 5, Usborne, was a grand success. Though it conflicted some- what with the. fowl supper at Elim- ville, as quite a number were connect- ed and interested in both entertain- ments, yet the school Was well packed, there b.eing between 250 and ,300 iu attendance. Shortly after 7- o'clock the people began to flock to the school and by 8 was filled to the doors. Mr. Boyd, principal of the Exeter Public School presided and throughout the whole program the very best order prevailed. In faetit could not be other- wise with such a man as Mr. Boyd inthe chair. He proves himself equal to all occasions and that evening proved himself to be the right Man in the right place. Theschairman gave a stirring address which was listened to with pleasure and profit. During the evening addresses were also deliv- ered by Rev. Mr. Brown and Dr. Rol- lins, of Exeter, and Mr. T. A. Russell, Sec. of the Manufacturers Association; Toronto. Their addresses were brief but pointed and were highly' appreciat- ed by the audience. The musical part. of the programme was all that could he desired. The quartettes by mem- bers of the James St. church, and Messrs. W, Kydd, W. Moodie, 3. Perk- ins and R. Kyd.d were' well received and highly applauded. The nitrite from Usborne's Minstrel Band and the comic songs by Mack Vincent brought down the house being heartily encored at each appearance. The , recitations by Miss Russell, Thames Road, Miss Alma Earl, Lumley, M. C. Down and Mr. Mack Vincent, of Exeter, were listened to with rapt attention.. An interesting part of the programme was -selections from the Graplioplione under the management of Mr. John Richard. After a hearty vote of thanks to the chairMan and others, who ably assisted in the programme, the entertainment was brought to a close, all feeling that it was the best concert they had over attended.
