About five weeks ago she fractured her hip in a fall. At that time 'her injuries, although serious, were not considered dangerous, but the shock proved too much and she passed away Wednesday morning. Mrs. Scott was a daughter of the late Henry Rath, who did much of the early surveying in Perth and Huron counties. She was born in Londenderry, Ireland, but came to Canada with her parents as a child, the family residing for many years on the Huron roa'd near Mit- chell. Mrs. Scott was an accomplish- ed musician and it was while teaching music in Wingham that she first met her husband, who practised medicine for two years in Bluevale. About fifty years ago she was married in Wingham to Dr. J. G. Scott and came to Seaforth to reside, and all her married life has been spent here. She is survived by her husband, Tr. Scott, Coroner of Huron County, and one son, Mr. H. R. Scott. The fun- eral will talce place from the residence -of Dr. Scott, on Friday, interment be- ing made in Harpurhey cemetery, G. W. V. A. Notes. The Challenge Euchre held in the club rooms last Thursday evening with the township of Hallett, was a decided success.

D.- Sutherland, .Sutherland, Mr. George Haig, while the G .W. V. A. won out in games by 398-381. - -Arrangement has been made with the Rink Management whereby the boys will have ice accommodation.

Anderson Coulter from the position of President and General Manager of the Company, was passed. Mr. Coulter is an old Seaforth boy and a son of the late Mrs. Coulter, known to every boy in Seaforth for several 'generations back and whose memory will long be cherished for the influence she exert- ed as teacher for many years of the primary department of our public school. Mr. Coulter is also a nephew, of Miss Hargan, of this town. The resolution speaks for itself: -"Moved by F. H. Deacon, seconded by Harry s. THE HURON EXPOSITOR Vigeon and unanimously resolved, that this meeting desires to place • on, record its regret at the resignation of Mr,. ,J. Anderson Coulter, its Presi- dent and General Manager, and to express its appreciation of his long "and successful connections with this Company. Thirty-three years he be- gan as a youth in the Company's employ at a salary of -four dollars a week. His ability, energy and in.- •tegrity brought steady promotion, un-• til on the death of the founder, Mr. Morrow, he became President and Manager: Sine that date, over 20 years ago_the Company's growth has beenarapi ,"`until for many years, its volume of business has been much the ,largest of anycompany in its i line of manufacture n Canada. While conservative in .his statements he was progressive in policy; so that the company has made "uninterrupted pro- gress. His genial personality made hosts of friends for the company. He had the 'confidence of the sharehold- ers and employees. During the "war he was untiring in his efforts to have the company produce the best muni- tions - at the lowest 'cost to Canada and the Mother " Country, and went through the difficulties ineident to be- ing manager of the company, which was the pioneer in making some of the most intricate parts of shells. Because of his long and faithful service in this company, it is desired by the shareholders at the annual meeting assembled to ask the direct- ors to have his portrait hung in the Board Room at the Head Office of the Company; the portrait to be painted by J. W. L. Forster, • E. Wyly Grier, or other artist who would be satisfactory to Mr. Coulter. Carried unanimously." Listen. --Salts, sulphur and salt peter at W. E. Kerslake's.
