Deceased was born in Mor - chard, Bishop, Devonshire in 1829 and came to Canada in ° 1854, coming to Exeter 37 years ago when' the village was in its infancy. He carried on very successfully the merchant tailor- ing business here for 21 years and built up for himself and family a very lucrative business. While a resident of Exeter the home of Mr. Sonthcott and his family was - a hospitable one and the older residents can recall many a happy hour spent there. Mr, Sonthcott was a quiet, industrious man of sterling integrity and Christian character and when in health was al- ways found in his place in the Sanctu- ary ready to bear testimony to the saving power of Christ. During the past year or so he has been in failing health, and all that loving hands or medical skill could do proved of no avail, and his spirit took its everlast- ing flight on Sunday last, at the resi- dence of his son, George, at Parkdale, The remains were brought here and interred in the Exeter burial grounds beside those of ' his wife and two daughters, who' pre -deceased him some years ago. There remains to mourn their loss, two sons, George and Fred, of Toronto, and one daugh- ter. • Mrs. E. Spackman, of Blen- heim. ; one sister, Mrs. Penhale, and one brother, Mr. John Southcott, both of Exeter, GRAND MASTER COWAN PRESENT.— On Tuesday evening last the Exeter Lodge No. 67, I.O.O,F. gave Grand Master, R.K."Cowan, of London, an enthusiastic welcome, and the degree team of the lodge put on the work of instruction in the initiatory degree, placingon the records three candid- ates.

Cowan replied expressing his pleasure at being present on such an occasion, He said that his appreciation could not be measured by words, but as all t present were Oddfellows all felt the same when at times, such as this, a great honor was conferred on a grand officer of the grand body of Oddfellows by the worthy brethren of this lodge. At the conclusion of the Grand Mas- ter's address the Initiatory Degree was put on and the team was compli- mented on their work by Mr. Cowan, An excell ent lunch, prepared by J. T. O'Brien, was passed round and was enjoyed by all, after which a program of songs and addresses was given. Mesers Brooks and Dickson Kaye short addresses, and the solos render- ed by Messrs Gurney alio Stanlake were enjoyed by all. The Grand Mas- ter in his address spoke of theood that has, and is being done by good fellows today throughout the world and also spoke of the rapid growth of• the society during the past tew years. In closing he again spoke of the pleasure it gave him to be present and hoped that he might at some future time again visit Exeter lodge, The Noble Grand, Mr. Philips, and Messrs McKay and Sutherland of Iensall Lodge gave short and interesting ad- dresses, The program was brought to a close by singing God Save the King, Capt.
