The Government, especially Raney. Biggs and, Peter Smith, have been slammed from all sides and still the spending is going on. I was sorry to hear of the death of William Murray, of Walton. He was a good friend to children, which proves the kind of Heart a man has got. His bereaved widow, who was Miss Maggie Davidson, and a very amiable person,' went up and down among us from childhood. I just wish I was better and that spring was here. I think I would go back to Huron for a spell. I regretted to hear of the death of Rev, Father Eckert. He was a mem- ber of a good family, and his parents wereamong., the earliest settlers up there. —J. J. I. 195 Munro street, Toronto. Former Rector Dead. The death of Rev.
