June 20th
.:after a brief illness. The subject of
thissketch was born April 20th,
1837 in 'Toronto, then known as
„_, "14uddy 'York," and came 'to this
township with her parents; the late
Mr. and Mrs. William Clark, settling
on the 'farm on the Goshen Line
still owned by . her brother, Mr,
Launcelot Clark, The deceased was a
member :or a large family of whom
five sisters and one brother survive,
Early in life she was United in the
bonds of holy matrimony with the
late John Reid, who predeceased her
;about seventeen years ago. Of this
union eleven children were torn, sev-
en. daughters and four sons, Two. of
-these have already •"crossed that
bourne whence no traveller returns,"
the youngest, Launcelot Edward,
some five years since. '
The late Mrs. Reid resided Contin-
uously for over fifty years on the
.farm on the Bayfield .Road where she
and her husband first took up house-
keeping and where she underwent
With bins all the hardships and dlifi-
euities of the pioneer life; A few years
.ago she retired tired to the village of Bay -
Feld where she lived until the time
of her last illness.
' i ,17e Mrs. Reid was in many, respects' a
model woman and her memory will
- ng be cherished as a loving .Christ-
ian mother t`
her and a loud neighbor, A
life-long member of the Presbyterian
Church, her talent was exercised
chiefly in the' home and social ai ser-
vice of the church. No truer friend
or kinder helper in time of trouble
•ever soothed the suffering heart.
The funeral took place on Thursday,
' June 22nd, to the Bayfield cemetery.
Irore the old family residence on the
itayfleld Road. The pallbearers were :
Messrs. John McKinley, Geo. Clark,
John Stephenson, John Beatty, John
'ST. Reid and Edward Merrier. Ser-
vices were conducted by. the Rev. A.
Macfarlane, who gave an eloquent
address and fitting appreciation of
the departed. Numerous and beauti-
ful floral tributes testified to the
-esteem in which the deceased was
held. A long cortege of sorrowing
friends and relatives followed • the
'remains to their last resting. place.
The family of the late Mrs. Reid
wish 'through the medium of The
News -Record to express their thanks
to sympathetic friends for much
kindly service and assistance during
their recent bereavement.
Miss Mary Forgie and her sister,
Mrs. E. Peterntan are making a
short visit amongst relatives in this
township,
---+-- 'Miss E. Reid returned to her dut-
ies in Londor his week, after hav-
ing been called' orae a couple of weeks
ago on account of the • serious ill-
ness of her mother. '
At the last meeting of the town-
ship council held on June 19th the
following motions were passed :
"That hereafter no dog tax will be
refunded unless the council have so,
tine of the decease before the Court
of Revision :" "That all residentg of

bor be ,requested to assist in keeping
the roads free from snow blockade

Every phase of present-day Canadian life is reflected in the July issue of
MacLean's Magazine. It Is 'vibrant with the spirit of Canada to -day, in-
terpreted by the Canadian writers of first rank best fitted to treat of the
topics assigned them. It is. a magazine with a' universal appeal, a live
interest fon: every member of the family. ,It is the Magazine. you have
been looking for.
Consider the following list of writers and articles in the July Issue, and
ask your news dealer for the .July MacLean's.
ROBERT -W. SERVICE
whose virile verse places his boo'. a at the Bead of the best sellers, is
driving an ambulance car at the front in Flanders, awl his war poems,'ap-
pearing exelusively in MacLean's Magazine, are saturated with the spirit
and color of the trenches. "The Haggis of Private McPhee" in the
July Number is a humorous and yet pathetic treatment of a subject dear
to the heart of every Scotchman. C. W. Jeffrey's illustrations make it
more realistic.
Agnes C. Laut
Well 'known to MacLean's readers for her amazing revelations ,of
German machinations in the United States, and whose intimate connection
with those high up in financial, business and diplomatic circles in the neigh-
boring Republic, has given her series , of articles in MacLean's prescience,
Posit.iVely startling, contributes t
o tile July MacLean's yet another of
outstanding import under the reading of "Canada's Gccatest Service to
the Empire."
Brigadier -General Logie
A fascinating character sketch of the Hamiltmt lawyer, who, casting aside
bis gown and his briefs, is organizers and training as bead of Number
Two Division, a Canadian army larger than that illifain sent to Water-
loo under Wellington. By. Hugh S. Eayrs,
Immigration After the War
Some plain facts are given and deductions drawn by Fisher King. No
more vital question is occupying the minds of Cianadian statesmen.
Every business' man snotld read this article,
Nellie McCiung
raises the startling cptestion, "Now that women have tate vote in Wes-
tern 'Canada, will they want to sit in Parliament ?" Mrs, McClung,
herself a leader in the Western feminist movement, answers this question
in e characteristic article in the JulyMacLean's,
Stringer and McFarlane
continue in the July MaeLean's their captivating stories, "The Anatomy
of Love" and "'Behind the -Bolted Door ?" Both these men are first flight
fiction writers, and both Canadian :horn anis bred, and both with contin-
ental reputations,
Then there is that ever -popular department, The Review of Reviews,
which gives the busy reader the cream of the world's best periodical lit- -
erature.

ting this thoroughly Canadian Magazine is.
