phine Smith,' . daughter of the late

thers engaged in ministerial. work in
the United Church. The two broth-
ers to predecease him were the Rev.

pioneer missionaries of the North-
west, and in 1872 travelled by ox-
cart to . Edmonton from Winnipeg,
then known as Fort Garry, the trip
taking two months to make. He was
superannuated in 1914, but continued
to work in the interests of the
Church, and established what is now
known a s Yonge Street United
Church in Toronto, . St. ' James's
Church in Peterboro', and was in-
strumental in starting another church
in Ottawa.

sons and three daughters: H. G. Man-
ning, memberof the Normal School,
staff at Stratford; Dr. Kent Man-
ning, St: Clair Avenue. West, Toron-
to; Mrs. Milner of Brampton, Mrs.
(Dr.) J, E. Middleton of Peterboro',
and Mrs. J. H. Hare of Erindale.
The funeral service was held at
Manor Road' Church, Toronto,"where
he was for some years an honored
superannuated minister, on Tuesday
at 2 p.m. Interment in the .family
plot in Newmarket Cemetery. •
Regret Their Departure

his new position. Their friends re-
gret their removal from town but
good wishes for continued happiness

son of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. W. Stew-
art, at the parental home, the eighth
concession, Hullett, on Saturday ev-
ening, September 191h, at the age efe
eight years. The little fellow hada
contracted the summer 'fru which:
caused an affection of the heart and.
in spite of the care of the best medi-
cal skill and trained nurses, was un-
able to combat.
The funeral from the hone of his --
parents Tuesday afternoon was onew•
of the largest seen in the community,-
for
ommunity'for some time, testifying to the -
deep sorrow and regret for the pas-
sing of little Gordon, who was a par-
ticularly sweet, bright and lovable•
'child, and the pet of the neighbor-•
hood. The services at the home anti';
graveside were conducted by the pas-
tor, Rev. Mr. Gardiner, assisted by ax.
former pastor and friend of the fam-
ily, Rev. C. C. Keine, .of Seaforth. A.
trio from the Sunday School of which
Gordon was a member, sang • very -
sympathetically, "In That City That.
Never Grows Old." The pallbearers,
were four cousins: John Stevens of"
Seaforth; John Elliott of Clinton,:
Aubrey Toll of Auburn and Clifford.
Adams of Londesboro.
The beautiful floral tributes from.
the Church, Sunday School, W.A.,
L.O.L., the Ydung People of the Com-
munity and friends far and . near
which banked the little casket were
carried by six of his little school
chums; Bruce and Murray Roy,
Jackie Medd, Archie Riley, Glen Car-
ter and Harry Bryant.
Besides his parents Gordon is sur-
vived by one sister, Marion, and two
brothers, Lloyd and Kenneth, all. at
home.
Friends were present from Toron-
to, Woodstock, Ilderton, Bluevale„
