be made by a certain time. But for
tune reason Roberta did not fulfil the
contract, and his neglect to do so put
the purchasers to oonsiderable incon-
lenience. Legal proceedings were threat-
ened him, but he laughed at them, said
that he wasn't worth anything, and told
them to fire ahead. Of course the parties
had made their agreement with him on
sae presumption that he was a maw of
honor, but when they found him other-
' , concluded it was no use to prose-
cute,. and the matter was dropped.
-About one o'clock Thursday morn -
of last week Mr. James McTag-
sera formerly of Usborne, but not., re -
tiding in Exeter, heard a noise outside,
end thinking the cows were in the gar-
ien, got up to put them out. He found,
however, that hisstable door was open
and his fine driving mare taken out.
The other meMbers of the family were
aroused at once and a general search in-
stituted. From the marks in the dust it
nes thought the animal was taken north,
sojr McTaggart started in that direc
ton. He had not gone far before he met
the Object of his search walking slowly
bomeward. A bag was strapped on her
back and therewas evidence that she
nel been ridden very fast, for what dis-
tance will likely never be known. Mr.
aleTaggart's theory of the mare's return
is that, as she shies very- quickly at
eines, she threw her rider and when
left to herself immediately turned on the
read and made for home. It's a good
thing to own a shying horse some times.
-Some days ago while Mr. James
whitely of Goderich township was en-
, gaged in drawing troughs to the field
for ditches, his horses, on his return
from the field, taking fright at some-
thing, became unmanageable. Mr.
Whitely having only the bare wagon,
• and being seated on the hounds, had no
place to brace himself; they were near
the gate when they started, which being
opened, they passed through, and turn-
ed down the road toward the school-
house, throwing Mr. Whitely off, who,
however, hung on to the lines for several
yards, when he let go. The horses ran
down the road towards the Maitland,
arid were caught by Mr. Robt. Taylor,
who overtook them on horseback, one of
the horses having stumbled causing a
delay, in which Mr. Taylor came up to
them. If it had not been so, they -would,
undoubtedly have run over the Mait-
land bank. Mr. Whitely received a
severe bruise on the knee, the wagon
was badly injured,the front axle and the
tongue being broken. ,

Thursday and Friday were the days of

-The Portage la, Prairie Review
gives the following report of the doings
of some former Hunonites, who are now
loe.ated near Austin, Manitoba: The
people of Austin and vicinity passed a
very pleasant evening .on Friday, May
28th, at a social given by a committee of
ladie,s upon the occasion of the opening
of the new hall. The table fairly
groaned under its load of delicades.
The musical programme was well ren-
dered by our local amateur talent.
Songs were rendered by the Misses
Spading, Mrs. W. McIntosh, Messrs.
Swan, Bredin, E. Broadfoot, Kemp,
Clifford and Alton, who also played a
cutlet salo. The organ was ably pre-
sided over' -by Mr. Dan. Broadfoot ; the
instrument having been kindly loaned
by Mrs. E. Broadfoot, to wham the
thanks of the management are due. The
chair was occupied by the Hon. Walter
Clifford, who made the announcements
ia his usual happy manner. When the
first part of the evening's programme
was concluded, the floor• was cleared
and dancing was engagecl in until the
"Wee sine hours" of the morning. The
whole affair passed off very pleasantly,
and the ladies who composed the com-
mittee, Mrs. Swan"Mrs. Pickering,
Ilts. E. Broadfoot, Mrs. Wheeler and
Mat Walter Duncan, deserve great
credit for the manner in which it was
condacted.
-For the following interesting par.
tieulara concerning the career of the late
Captain. Cox, of Gpderiela, whose de-
cease we announced last week, we are
indebted to the Signal: Captain Cox

England, on July 14, 1814, -and came of
an old, Kentish family. He was the
Youngest of six sons, and in accordance

steamer Amazon of the Royal West In Mail Company, but being becalmed
was unable to ascertain the cause or go
to her assistance. He left the sea in
1856, and came to Canada and settled in
"Toronto. He invested his savings in oil
lands at Petrolia when oil was just dis-
covered there, but owing to the ras-
cality of some whom he trusted he lost -
nearly all he possessed. He then went
into the hotel business in Toronto, and
continued in it ten years. He came to
Goderich in 1870.
--A good citizen,a worthy man and a
pioneer resident of the township of Gode-
rich, in the person of James Enticknap,
familiarly known as "Father Entick-
nap," has passed hia long home. He
was born in the county of Surrey, Eng-
land, in the year 1810, and was there-
fore 76 years of age at the time of his
death. In his earlier years he was ap-
prenticed to a blacksmith, from whom
he learned the trade. At the age of 19,
strange as it may appear, he married a
widow with a large farnily,and by whom
he became the father of three children -
two sons and one daughter. Two of
these Mr. A. Enticknap, of Plattsville,
and krs. Danyer, of Monnington, north
of Stratford, survive their now sainted
father. It is also a somewhat peculiar:
coincidence that while the son married
the older sister,a widow, the fathertwho
was a widower, married the younger
sister. In this, his first marriage re-
lationship, he lived -happily for about 8
years, laboring for and supporting the
united family, when suddenly the scene
changed. On awakening one morning
he found, to his surprise and sorrow, his
wife lying dead by his side. This sad
event made a great change in his life,
and he became a devoted Christian, and
a consistent member of•the Bible Christ-
ian denomination, and soon after was
made a local preacher in connection with
that denomination, and he continued his
services in connection 'with the ministry
until he was forced, a few years ago, by
the infirmities incident to old age, to re-
linquish active work. In about a year
after the death of his wife he -married a
second wife, with WITOM he spent about
seventeen years of his life. In, her he
found, as he said, "an excellent wife"
and a faithful mother to his motherless
children. Having no additikal:family,
he adopted an orphan niece of his wife's
and raised her, who afterward recipro-
cated the kindness by marrying Mr. En-
ticknap's eldest son. Some time after
this she lost her husband, and Mr. En-
, tieknap his second wife from cancer in
the breast, when she again appreciated
former favors by keeping house for her
father-M.law. He also cared for three
or. 'four other motherless children, so
that it may be truly said of him he was
"a father to the fatherless and a hus-
band to the widow." In 1853 he emi-
grated to Canada, and lived for some
time in VVoodstock,after which helocat-
ed in Holmesville, where he has spent
nearly 30 years and 'where he married a
Miss Mary A. years,
of- Goderich,
who now mourns the loss of an affection-
ate husband, and who has proved a
frugal and praiseworthy partner.

TEA. MEETING. -The tea and straw-
berry festival under the auspices of the
Ladies' Aid Society in connection with
the Presbyterian church was held, as
announced, on Tuesday° evening last at
the residence of _,Mr. Wm. Moir, and
despite the dampness of the day and
evening proved a great success, the re-
ceipts, clear of all expenses', aniounting
to over $50. The Exeter brass band,
nothing daunted by the rain, were pres-
ent, and added greatly to the pleasure
of the evening's entertainment by their
fine and stirring selections. The render-
ing of a number of Kindergarten songs
by the children was very much appre-
ciated, and reflected great credit alike
to themselves and their teacher, Miss
Murray, of Rodgerville. We con-
gratulate the ladies on the successful
issue of their festival.
