Some peculiar circumstances con-
nected with the death of old man Mali
ler, 02 Deteware, who suicided recently
while mentally unbalanced are related
A fine black horse was tied in a stall
near where the suicide was —found
hanging, and the horse appeared to
have been fascinated by the horrible
sight, and refused to turn its head
away from the spoteven after the
body had qeen removed, although this
necessiated a severe straining of its
neck. few days afterwards the
horsewas taken out of the stall and
hitched to a cultivator, but it had been
out only a ,ehort time when it fell dead,
The brain of the deceaeed was sent to
Toronto for exaMination, when it was
found that the Unfortunate man could
not have liyedlouger than two weeks
anyway, owing to a geowth of the
brain.

ANOTHER Go/stn.—The pioneer sett
lei's of this township are fast disap
peering and soon there will be left
only a small fragment of the once nob
le army. Another has been gathered
to his fathers. We refer to the death
of Mr. Hugh McMdlan, of the 10th con
cession, which took plat% on Sunday of
last week. Mr. McMillan was a native
of Invernessshise, Scotland, He came
to this country with the othei mernbers
of his family when quite a young
man, and in the year 1850 he settled
on the farm on the 10th Coecession of
Tuckersinith, where lie continued to
reside until his death. After coming
to Tueke,rsmith he was married to
Isabella Matinee, who stilt survives
him. .Mr. McMillan was a shrewd bus
bless man, and for years has been
more or less extensively eng6aged in
. 6
cattle dealmg as well as farming, and
by foresight, good judgment and in,
dustry, succeeded in amassing a con-
siderable fortune. Besides his soerow-
ing Widow he leaves a family of four
sons and two daughters, About three
months ago he became afflicted with
paralysis, caused by heart trouble and
from thiS he never recoyored, anh he
was a severe lint patient stabile: He

Married His Daughter
Chicago, Noy, 7.—Samuel Clinton
Willetts, aged 62, Who married. his
son's widow two years ago, is in a
strange predicament. According to
statements to Lawyer James W. Druil
lard, to whom heto day applied. for
legal advice, Willetts has probably
Wedded his owe child. She was his
offspring by his runaway wife of forty-
five years ago. Willetts' first wife was
Miss Mamie Evans They were mar
vied nt Erie, Pa., when both were lin
der twenty. After the birth of a girl
baby they quarrelled, and the wife
and child disappeared. Six years lat-
er, after apparently well founded re-
ports of their death, Willetts married
Caroline Stevens it a town near Erie.
A. son was horn, but the wife died. The
boy George, sgrowing to manhood,
went on the road for Harding, Davis
Se Co., wholesale hardware dealers of
Pittsburg, and on Christmas, 1860, sur-
prised his father by returning from
Cleveland with a bride, Miss Helen
Wright. •The ycitnig couple listed
,
pily for twenty-eight years, but were
childless. in 1888 George Willetts
died. The father had from the first a
singular affection for his daughter in,
law'and in 1890 they were married in
London, Eng. Since. then Ms, Will
ett's remieiscences of her childhood led
to investigations, which apparently
disclose that Willetts' thst wife, seven
years after deserting him, married a
John Wright at Cleveland, and,though
in turn desetted by him, brought her
little girl up under .the name Of
Wright, and dying, shortly before Geo,
Willetts arrtved in Cleveland, A de:
tective 18 endeavoring to Ascertain the
facts in the case fully. Mr. Willetts is
well -to do financially.
