TDB LATE J. A. YOUNG.—The Mount
Forest Confederate of suet week says rela-
tive to the late Mr. Young :—On Monday
morning of this week J. A. Young,
general agent for the Ontario Mutual
Life Co., died at his home Fergus street.
He had been ill only a short time. On
Thursday afternoon last he was seized
with severe pains which proved to be a
ease of appendicitis. Though all that
medical skill and threat nursing Gould
do were tried, his life 000ld not be saved
and he passed away, The foot that he
bad not been strong for some time
previously made the last sickness all the
more trying on him. His death is much
regretted in the community as he was
one of the most highly esteemed gentle•
men in the town. The sorrowing friends
are sympathised with by everybody.
The tate Mr. Young was born in Ayr-
shire, Scotland, on Jan. 5th, 1853, being
a eon of William Young. The family
came to Oaneda in the early days and
settled in the township of Kiuloee, near
Teeswater, where the father of deceased
still resides. Mr. Young was educated at
the ole ook ood de
R w academy and t
y at he St.
Catharines collegiate institute. He be.
gen teaching about twenty.eeven years
ago and taught far about seven years in
the township of Huron. Afterwards he
followed the same profession for a num•
bar of years at Ethel, near Brussels.
While at the latter plaoe be aneepted an
agency far the Ontario Mutual Life Co.
and gees op teaohing to follow that bud -
nese. He was ao successful that about
seven years since be was appointed
general agent for North Wellington and
the ooanties of Gray and Dofferin. On
receiving that appointment he removed
to Meant Forest and has made this town
his home gime that time. He made
many friends not only here but all over
his dietriot. In his business dealings he
gained theneputation of being a moat
honorable and straightforward gentle-
man and this wag to a great extent the
secret of his soothes, He was a member
of the Presbyterian ohutch here and for
some years was one of the managers of
the congregation. In eooiety molest he
was also prominent, being a member of
the I. 0. F. and also of the A.. F. & A.
M. In the latter order he took a epeoial
interest and for two years past 000upied
the position of Worsbipfnl Master of St.
Alban'? lodge, No. 200, Mount Forest.
In July 1875 Mr. Young was married to
