The Exeter Council. ADDITIONAL :LOCALS
The council 'net at the Town Hall
Monday evening last. All the. mein -
hers except •Oouncillor. Creech were
present. The minutes of the last
meetingwere read and coniirtned.
A communication was read from the
head office of the Telegraph Co. giving
notice that they wished to appeal
Against their assessment.
The following accounts were prc'-
sented:•—Queen: City Oil Oa., two bar-
rels gasoline, $16.30;, R. N. Treble, one
cord dry wood, $3; Jos. Oobbledick,
Ilene for cemetery, 75c; W. J. Bissett,
charit-y-yfor Mrs.. Delve. at $1 per. week,
$12; Geo, Brooks, bread for Win. Brin-
acoenhe,fa tnily, $1; Thos. Creech, snow-
plowing, $2,
Some discussion took place regard-
ing the payment of the $12 to Mrs,
Delve by the town treasurer unknown.
to the present council. The Reeve
and Councillor Heanian thought that
this charity had been dispensed with.
It was explained that the 1905 council
had instructed the treasurer'. to pay
such charity in this manner and that
the motion had not been rescinded,
consequently it had• been continued
this year. Mr. Heaman moved that
the item be laid over and the matter
investigated. No seconder. Then'Mr.
Heaman moved that the accounts be
paid as read, that the 1905 council's
motion re charity he rescinded and
that in future .orders for charity be
made by this council. Seconded by
Mr. Treble and carried.
Councillor Fuke stated that the cat-
tle men had complained ofthe had
condition of the stock yard and the
market building. windows being hrok
en, table removed, etc. He thought
it should he kept in good condition for
doing business, and moved that the
building be repaired. Seconded by
Mr. Heaman.--Carried,
Councillor Treble stated "that G. H.
Bissett wished permission of council
to cut certain trees in front of his resi-
dence on Huron street. This 'natter
was left over till the council . took the
spring tour.
Mr. Bobierbrought up the 'natter.
of industries. He had been in com-
munication with Mr. Knrtze and the
Western Foundry Oo.of Winghtern,
Mr. Knrtze says qe had, received favor-
able propositions from , Seaforth,
Whitby and his hoose town, but pre-
ferred Exeter and intends making an-
other visit,when if he could snake sat-
isfactory terms with the Banks he
might accept the possibleoffer of 8250
a year.
Mr, Heimau believed things were
looking bright for a Canning Factory,
in' town as he knew of people who bed
signified their willingness to subscribe
for stock to the extent of -$5,000; and
$8,000 would be sufficient to ensure
success. The joint stock company
that would be formed would not ask
for a bonus, but might ask for exemp-
tion from taxation for a period. The
councillors were 'unanimous in their
opinions that the industry was a good
one, that Exeter was well situated for
such, and that there would be no diffi-
culty in securing exemption.
The Woollen Mill. Industry was
brought up by Mr. Heitman, who sta-
ted that the machinery was herein the
building and all was ready for work,
that a large amount of wool was year-
ly marketed here, but we had no one
to run the business. Therefore he ad-
vised that the town advertise for a
capable man. On motion of Messrs.
Heaman and Treble the Reeve and
0ouncillnr Fuke were appointed a
committee to draft advertisement for
a, roan to advertise in the Mail and
Empire and Globe and do anything
else in the matter that they 'night
deem advisable.—Carried.
Mr. Bobier was also asked to try to
secure a capable man to manage a
Canning Factory.
The council decided to meet on the
second- and fourth Mondays of the
month in future and on motion of Mr.
Fuke adjourned to. April 9th. •

DEATH OF DAVID DL'NCAN.--The
Dodge County,Minn., Star, .ofthe22nd
inst., contains the following sad news
of the.death of a former resident of
this locality, being a brother of Mes-
srs. John and Alex. Duncan of Us -
borne. "On Saturday, March 17, the
community was shocked by a very ser- of Lieury. accident, resulting in the death of y.
Mr. David` Duncan. Mr. Dnncan's
team became frightened by a train at
the railroad crossing, east of Clare-
mont and he was thrown from the wa-
gon. Help came at once, but was of
no avail, for the spirit had fled. Mr.
Duncan who had been a consistent
member of the. Presbyterian church
for nearly fifty years was known for
his sterling honesty and integrity and
his dealings with his` fellow men in-
deed exemplified the Golden Rule. His
loss will be deeply felt by all, but es-
pecially by those who knew him best,
The family appreciating the kindly
spirit.of sympathy of their friends and
neighbors, wish to return their sincere
tlianks for all the kindness shown
them in this time of trouble.” Mr.
Duncan was .a*native of Scotland, com-
ing to America in 1854. He first set-
tled in Ontario and after remaining
there for seven years moved to the
county in which he died. Deceased
was twice married and is survived by
a widow, one daughter and three sons.
His age was 65 years, 7 rnonths,28 days.
