The late Mr. Elroy was one of the old residents of Morris having been born on lot 13, con. 8 of that township 58 years ago, and where he resided until August 1889 when he went west and took up land near Killarney and has since met with much prosperity. About twenty years ago he was married to Miss Wilkie, of Fergus, the result of this union being a family of five, four boys and orie girl, who survive. The deceased was a man of high principles and much esteemed in the neighborhood in which he has resided for so many years. He was a Methodist in religion and Conservative in politics and a member of the Orange Society. TEESWATE R. An interesting ing event occurred at the home of Mr. Alexander ' McKenzie, Elora street, on Saturday, October 9, when Mr. McKenzie and his good wife celebrated their diamond wedding They were presented by the citizens of the town with a purse of gold and an address, which was read • by Dr. M. H, Gillies. Mr. McKenzie was born in Inverness, and Mrs. McKenzie, whose maiden name was Catherine Ferguson, was born in Argyle, Scotland. They were married in Esquesing Township, Halton County, on October 9, 1855, by the Rev. John McLaughlin. They are still in possession of their marriage certificate, which was given on that occasion. It was viewed with interest by all who went to convey congratu- lations, -the names of the witnesses upon it being John McKenzie and Alex. McLaughlin. The ceremony was per- formed in English and Gaelic, as Mr. Ferguson, Mrs. McKenzie's father, knew no English and insisted that he understand what was being said. The young couple came to Culross in 1861 and settled on the fourth concession, where Mr. McKenzie began to clear Eris farm. Nineteen years ago he retired and moved into the village, having pur- chased a residence on Elora street. ST. HELEN is. Jas. Baker has got an autd. Mr. John McDonald is papering the manse. Rev.

Arrangements are being completed for the anniversary and tea -meeting of Calvin Church, St. Helens, on Sunday and Monday, the 24th and 25th of October. The change of date was de- cided on because of the induction of the newly -called minister which will be held on the afternoon of Monday, 25th, and the evening tea•meeting will take on a character of a reception to Rev. and Mrs. Little and their family. The anniversary preacher Will be Rev, R. A. Cranston, of Palmerston, and this, together with the unusually interesting circumstances on the Monday evening, will doubtless insure a large attendance at all the anniversary services. •TI -1E 'W.INGHAM TIMES The Gov nment , grant to klensa Public Library ,for the present year is $124, Miss Tani Kelly, while shopping on Saturday in Jas,, .
