The Lacrosse Match.
The return friendly lacrosse match
between the Hensall and Exeter teams
took place on Monday evening. A
good, big enthusiastic crowd was in
attendance. The Exeter Band march-
ed to the ground and enlivened the
affair with a few choice selections.
The garde was welt played by both
teams with the result that at the close
the score stood 3-2 in favor of the
Exeter boys. Very little play of a
rough nature was indulged in, conse-
quently the spectators enjoyed the
game thoroughly. This is the first
gauge of lacrosse played in town for
many moons and it is a source of
gratification to know that the boys
have revived the good old game, than
which there is no better. In this con-
nection it might be mentioned that
in no way can sport be encouraged
better than by a money donation by
the town council for the rental of
grounds, and by the patronage of the
good citizens in turning out to the
games. When a town allows hockey,
lacrosse, baseball and other sports to
die a natural death from lack of a
little assistance. the town itself is not
far from the same fate. Encourage
the boys in a healthy and enjoyable
recreation.

One of the pioneers of Stephen

June 17th, in the person of Jane Cole-
man, relict of the late Septitnus Ho-
garth. Mrs. Hogarth had reached the
age of 80 years. She had been for
some time in failing health, owing to
the infirmities of old age, but the im-
mediate cause of death was the buret-
ing of a blood vessel in the brain.
Some fifty-seven years ago Mr. and
Mrs. Hogarth settled in the Township
of Stephen, at a time when the land
was almost totally covered with trees,
and it was necessary to cut out a road-
way in front of their farm. Mr.
Hogarth died some few years since
and now he is followed by hie aged
partner, a woman who has been
throughout her life esteemed and re-
spected by all who knew her. She
was a consistent member of the
Methodist church. She is survived
by a family of seven children. who in-
clude Misses Emwa at home, and

enjoyed very good health for the last
two or three years but was up and
around until about three weeks ago
when he was taken down and grad-
ually weakening be succumbed to his
