Death of W.E. -Southgate.-W. E. Southgate, Sen., aged 69, one of the beat known commercial travelers in Canada, died at his korne in Seaforth on Saturday from heart trouble and complications. He was a resident of Conada for 50 years, living in Toronto for abouta25 years after coming from England. For the past twelve years he has made his home here, being engaged in the manufacture cif cloth- ing, and latterly returning to his former vocation as representaive of several of the best known American and Canadian factories. He was a prominent Mason and Black Knight of the. Orange Order and took an active. interest .in each of these societies. Being a fluent speaker, his services were often sought in this connection. He leaves a widow, one son, W. E, Jun. who was his co-worker on the „road, and one daughter, Mrs. R. A. Wilson, New York. The remains were taken to Toronto on Monday for interment in the family plot in Mount Pleasant Cemetery on Monday afternoon. • . The Late John Reinke. -As we men- tionedbriefly last week another of the pioneer settlers of this township, passed away on Wednesday of last week, in the person of Mr. John Reinke in his 81st year. Six- years ago Mr. Reinke suffered a seve-re stroke of par- alysis, and although he recovered suf- iciently to be about succeeding strokes -during the past few years, greatly reduced his vitality and for the past three months he had been confined to his bed. The deceased , was a native of Germany but came to Canada in 1856 at the age of 19 years, and one year later he went to Harpurhey, where he was employed by the late Dr. Chalk for some time. Subsequently he leased the farmftom the late laud - wick Meyer at present owned by Mr. G. M. Chesney, where he resided for four years, when he moved to Tuck- ersmith and -burchased from Mr. Hugh Craig the farm now owned by Mr. Alex. Wallace, where he resided con- tinuously for 44 years. About sev6n years ago he retired fie:en .the farrn to enjoy a well earned rest. Unfor- tunately however, about a year after their retirement, his 'partner in life, -Dorothy Piel, to whom he was mar- ried 50 years ago, was called' away, and since that time Mr. Reinke has made his home with his son, John. He is survived by a family of two sons and three daughters, George and John in Tuckersmith; Mrs... Joseph Dayman, of McKillop Mrs. D. Ross, Brucefield, and Mrs. Herman Daer, of Auburn. Tb e funeral services were I held on Saturday from the _home of his son and were yexy largely attend- ed, the remains being laid to rest in the Maitlandbank cemetery. The Roxboro Garden Party. -The garden party held on the lawn of Mr. Robert Garrow on Wednesday evening June 19th, was a huge success, and the young ladies of Roxboro, under whose auspices it was,, are to be con- gratulated for many reasons. From every direction the people came, the result .being , a big and happy- crowd. There were war time refreshments, numerous greetings, uelimited conver- sation and then the programme rend- ered from the verandah to an audience that inspired the performers by their appreciation. The' Seaforth band was in attendance and discoursed Music liberally, . adding very much to the. enjoyment of the occasion. Back of the programme from the platform was the mariaging mind Of Miss Isabel Scott_to Whom, knowingly or unknow- • ingly, the company was indebted for the welcome songs sung by Miss Mc- Clinton and Mr. McGregor, of Gode- rich. These artists from the seaport of Huron t county) gre41y delighted their auditors. And so did the Sea - forth -quartette, who were recalled, and Mr. John Scott likewise, who excelled himself. Interesting addresses were delivered by Rev. Mr.' Brown and Mr. Thomas McMillan, and three cheers were given for Mr. Robert Garrow, who did the duties of host in a way that made for friendliness and good cheer. A question of pig ownership came pp for settlement during .the evening. Mr. Joseph Scat and Mr. John Scott had eeeh donated a porcine roaster to be drawn lots for. Of the 200 people or thereabouts who made a 26c try for the youthful grunter, all dropped.their money except two, Mr. T. A. Webster and Master J. R. Scott, and no complaint *could be made a- kainst Mr. Garrow, who turned the crank of the churn containing the tick- ets, with strenuous impartiality, and although Mayor Stewart drew the 1 tiokets with cautiousness and gentle - ness, he looked in the other direction all the time. The pigs however, did not find their ultimate owners even then,forthe erize winners generously. declined to 'nress their title, and 0 up Went the pigs at auction. The ab- sence of .Tom Brown was keenly felt for a moment, but Mayor Stewart did the necessary shouting and had to do more houtiT1gi than he had reckoned on owing to the large heartedness of Mr. P. A. O'Sullivan, who bought a pig for 418, put up the money, and then actually ave the pig back to be re -auctioned, a thing that does not 'happen - every day. Finally.the pigs did find a res mg place for the soles of their feet, ibut not until they had landed forty-three additional dollars to 'the seventy already secured through the sale of ticliets. The total proceeds were $2$6, the money being gwee to the Red Cros Society. Rev. F. H. Larkin eccuri d the chair and Mies Isabel Suite and Mr. L. T. DeLeeeY plaid the accompaniments.

Already many of our boys are in France, while others, like you, are training to carry on the great work in sustaining the wonder - fu the Canadians have made for our country among other nations of the world, by their spirit and conduct in the trenches. Before you leave, however, we want to ex- press to you the esteem, we your old neighbors and friends have come to feel for you through the happy years we have spent together. We, there- fore, ask you to accept this wrist watch and safety razor with our best .wishes for a safe return when peace shall be declared. We hope that in the days to come they will often'bring back to you many happy memories of your friends in the old home and be an encouragement to you in doing Your "Bit" -Signed on bsItalf of Neighbors and Friends-Thoznas Mc- Kay, W.
