A FINE YODTII PASSES AWAY. — Last
Sunday George, mond eon of David and
Mrs. Badgley, 6th line, paid Natare's
debt at the early age of 13 years. He
bad been in failing health for some time
so tbat his demise did not come se an
unexpected event to the home, although
be did not take to his bed but a few days
before his decease. George was a youth
of many good qualities, an auoomplaia•
lug patient and hie death is regretted by
not only hie youthful companions bat
the community generally. Tbe funeral
took plea Tuesday afternoon, Rev, Mr.
Robison coudaobi❑g the service. A
number of beautiful wreathe were planed
on the casket. iThe pall bearers
wore George Davis, W, MoOatoheon,
Roy and Laelie Tbnell, W. Mo0utaheoo,
and R. Nichol. Interment was made at
Brussels amatory.
The Garden Party held at Garner
Nicholsons, 4th oon., was a decided
encase notwitheteading the; downpour of
rain which during the day made the
prospects for an outdoor enter
aliment rather, dieoonragiog. There
was a large crowd and good
music byWingham Band. A ani
g qo°
feature of the evening was the selling of
the autograph quilt made by the W. M.
S., Jos Clegg performing the duties of
auctioneer in a very competent manner,
the quilt becoming the property of Mies
Tillie Wilkinson, of Belgrave, of which
she ie jaetly proud. It realized the sant
of $50.00. Mr. Nicholson in his natal
genial hearty atylo, left nothing undone
for the comfort of bis guests and it goes
without a vote that it would be hard to
Lied a better host or plea for an evening's
social enjoyment. The splendid amount
of $108.00 would sorely vouch for that.
WEDDING OUT WEST. — The manse,

former reeidenbs of this township, joined
