BY-LAW N0. 660, 1912,
A By -Law to prohibit the sale by retail
of spirituous, fermented or other
manufactured liquors in the Munini-
pality of the Town of Wingham.
Strong Preaching.
A reverend gentleman having got in-
to difficulty with his congregation,
found it necessary to hand in his resig-
nation. On the eve of his departure he
preached a farewell sermon and sought
to improve the occasion by firing a part-
ing shot. `You ungrateful and Godless
people,' he began, severely, `it is clear
that God does not love you, for I have
buried none of you since I have been
here; and it is certain that you don't
leve one another, for I have not married
any of you. It is equally plain that
you do not love me,for you have not
gs;:id my lastquarter's salary. However,
I shall be irdependent of you all. I
have obtained a position as chaplain of
a gaol.' And then he coolly gave out
tine text—`I go to prepare a place for
yen.'

ham enacts as follows: -
