LOST LITTLE BABE.
Much sympathy is felt for Me. and
tics. W. L. Johnson in the death of
their infant son,which occurred
on
Tuesday. The little fellow had seem-
ed to be doing well until very short-
ly before his death, which was en-
tirely unexpected. He had lived but
the short span of twenty-six days.
A KINDLY DEED.
Last week a very kindly and beau-
tiful expression was given of the bond
of sympathy existing between the
families in
Clinton vho
have mem-
bers
crtets serving in the Huron
Battalion
when the wives and families of the
officers and men of the Met sent a
handsome floral emblem for the cas-
ket of the late William Leppington,
who died so suddenly. Mrs. Lapping -
ton, who was so unexpectedly be-
reaved, has but :two sons, and both
are members of the :Mist and at the
time of their father's sudden death
were probably upon the Atlantic.
The loneliness of the widowed moth-
er's position struck a responsive
chord in the hearts of other wives
and mothers of Clinton soldier boys
and they gave sweet expression to
their sympathy by the gift of fra-
grant roses and a kindly message.
But for such kindly thoughts and
deeds titis old world world often
prove but a poor place to sego:'rn.
