J. McLean, when Peter Fow- ler, a well known and highly esteem- ed resident of the township of Mor- ris was thrown from his wagon to the pavement. Mr, 'Fowler, who re- sided about two miles from town on the Bluevale Road, had been in town cloii)rler in the afternoon for a load Of and had left for home, when on the outskirts of the town he turned around and was returning when leis team ran away. It is thought he left the wagon for same reason for at the time of his losing his balance he was endeavoring to get from the near of the wagon to the front where the lines were lying. Mr. Foevier was thrown with such force that besides .several cuts and bruises his neck was broken. He was removed to the hos- pital but passed away shortly after admission. The deceased was in his 69th year; being born in the same township in which he has continuous- ly resided.

BISHOP OF HURON ENTERTAINED HERE The members of Use Listowel Bad- minton Club played their return visit to Wingham on Thursday evening of last week.
