Onte.—Last Monday Rev. Joseph R.
Gibson died at the Methodist parsonage
here, aged 45 years and 6 months. The
deceased only moved to Ethel a few
weeks ago, as successor to Bev. .1. T.
Legear, coming from Maitland circuit,
where he had spent the previous three
years. Ho had been on the sick list for
the past few months, but, until lately,
nothing serious Was anticipated. Not
feeling as well as usual a consultation of
physicians was decided on and these gen.
demon came to the conclusion that an
inward cancer was doing its work and
that life at the longest would not con-
tinue more than a few months. Last
Sunday internal hemorrhage set in and
death soon followed. Like a valiant
soldier the subject of this brief sketch
died with his face to the foe, trusting in
the Captain of his salvation for victory
over the last enemy. The funeral service
on Wednesday afternoon was conducted

chairman of the Listowel district. Rev.
W. Torrance, of Walton, read the 23rd

suitable to the sad occasion, were given
by Rev. Jae. McAllister, chairman of the
Palmerston District, and Rev. Mr. Tor-
rance. The pall bearers were Revds. F.
M. Smith, of Hentryn ; J. L. Kerr, R.
Paul and S. Sellary, B. A., B. D., of
Brussels ; D. Rogers, of Attwood; and
W. Torrance, of Walton. The service at
the grave was read by Rev. J. W. Gilpin
and Rev. Dr. Henderson, of Listowel.

the past 18 years has been at Maitland,
Kemble, Little Current, McKellar and
other places in that portion of the coun•
