The annual meeting of the East Huron Conservatives occurs at Wing - ham town -hall, onMarch 7th. Miss Maggie Deachman and Miss Maggie Anderson returned last Friday from a visit to friends in Lucknow. Owing to the absence of the trains much of our usual correspondence has failed to reach us in time for this issue. A sleighload of Gorrieites attended the Wroxeter skating rink last Saturday evening and report having had a good time. There will be a meeting of the Howick Conservative Association held in Biernes' hall, Fordwich, on Saturday, March 4th. The Brass Band had just received a lot of new music from Toronto and Galt, and will be well prepared for next sum- mer's engagements. Mr. David Sanders,who has been work- ing in this office for several months past, has accepted a position on a Chesley paper, leaving for that village on Satur- day last. Owing to the heavy snow -storms Mr. C. C. Keine has not yet started for Manitoba. He again occupied the Methodist pulpit last Sunday evening,. preaching acceptably to a very largo congregation.- The Gorrie school trustees recently advertised for tenders for wood, but not a single tender was received. The great depth of snow in the bush and the drifted state of the roads makes the teaming of wood very difficult. Mr. Geo. Hazelwood is this moving from the -Thompson farm, upon which he has resided for several years past, to the Hunt farm on the 6th con., just west of Mr. Jas: Mitchell's which he has leased for a term of years. . Rev. Mr. Haig will (D.V.) preach in the Gerrie and Fordwich Presbyterian churches on Sabbath next and the Sabbath following, March 5th and -12th. He has been in Manitoba for the past seven years, but is now returning to Ontario on account of his health. KorIce.—My accounts have all been sent -gout and all those who still owe will please settle. ' If any have not received their accounts they need not be offend- ed but cove and pay the same as if they had. JAS. ABIISTRONG, V. S. Mrs. Martha Miller, mother of Mrs. John Wilson, 6th con., died at the home -of her son-in-law last week at the ad- vanced age of 84 years, Her remains were interred in Fordwich cemetery in the presence of a large gathering of the friends of the family. The high wind last Monday complete- ly blocked - this branch of the C. P. R. by filling in the cuts with snow. Several snow -plows and engines have been de- railed in their efforts to get the road clear. ;No mail has reached Gorrie since Monday but it is confidently ex- pected that trains will be running to- day as usual. PANCAKES AND TREACLE !-A 'pancake social will be held at the residence of Mr. Alex. Smith, Gorrie, on Wednesday evening; March 8, ins connection with the Presbyterian- Sabbath School. A goad programme is being prepared and week a good time may be expected. E very - body is invited to come and enjoy them- selves. Admission, 15c. Pancakes served from 7 to 9. On the evening of Feb. 22nd a large number of invited friends assembled at the . residence of Mr. John Jacqaes, Orange Hill, the event being to witness the marriage of his daughter, Esther,to Mr. W. J. Andison. The ceremony was performed by the Rev.- W. F. Brownlee at 6 o'clock, p. in. The bride was given away by her father, and was at- tended by her sister, Nancy, as brides- maid, while Mr. Charles Harris acted as groomsman. The bridal costume was of white cashmere trimmed with silk and lace, while .the bridesmaid was dressed in corresponding cilors, in all presenting a beautiful appearance. After the ceremony theguests sat down to a very richly prepared dinner, after which the company continued to enjoy them- selves in `various' ways until an early hour. The bridal presents were very numerous, rich and beautiful in them- selves, expressive of the esteem in which the bride was held by her friends. Mr. and Mrs; Andison will spend a short time visiting friends in Oxford county previous to returning to their home on the 9th con.,. Howick, near Gorrie. We wish theta pleasant days and much hap: No. 13. A very interesting debate was held in the town hall -last Friday evening, in the presence eta large audience of ladies and gentleilien, on the subject of an nexation vs British connection, the former being upheld by Messrs. Moore; Dr. Sneak, (jr.), T. W. Gibson and Munro, while Messrs. Clegg, Doig,Greer and Jno. M. Kaine defended Britieh Con- vection, Those Who expected to listen were interred in McIntosh cemetry on to a political discussion between Grits the 25th inst. Th® funeral was largely attended. and Tories were agreeably disappointed, Mrs. Terriff, wife of Mr. Y. not one objectionable argument of that kind being used on either side, The speakers held 'closely to the subject under debate and there was an agree- able fertility. of argument which kept the judges—Messrs. H. Perkins and Dr. Armstrong; of Gorrie, and Dr. Fortune, of Wroxeter,_ busy during the entire evening. The debate was finally awarded to the Gorrie gentlemen, al- though the. decision was a very close. one. A return debate is, we understand, to be held shortly in Wroxeter. - Belmore: We are very sorry to have to an- nounce the sad : calamities befalling Mr. P. Terriff's family; of this place. His oldest son, John Tecrift, died in Clifford on. Friday morning, 24th Inst, of consumption, at the residence of his father-in-law Mr. Ho1linRer. His remains The death of Mrs. J. R. Williams, which occurred at three o'clock last Monday morning, caused a sensation of profound s{jxrow in this village. where she rosidec €`:with her husband and family for many years past. She has been in poor health of late years, suffering from a complicated disease which has baffled the best medical skill, and to which she finally succumbed after much suffering, which she bore with true Christian fortitude. She leaves behind her,besides a sorrowing husband, a- family of five sons and a daughter, to whom the sincere sympathy of the public goes out in their great affliction. The funeral occurred :en yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon and was attended by a large concourse of neighbors and friends, among those present from a distance being Mr. Henry and Miss Lizzie Ferrier, of Bervie ; Mr. Ed. Crippen and Mrs. Masters, of Al- pena, Mich.; Miss Lena Williamc, of Mitchell; 1!IIr. Jas. Williams, and daugh- ter, of, Seaforth ; Miss Yeo and Mr. Geo. Yeo, of Teeswater. Gorrie School Report.

The Foresters' concert on Tuesday evening drew out a crowded house. Fax, Miss Bowes and the Gorrie Orchestra, and Miss Brawn, as accompanist, fur- nished an attractive programme, which was ably presided over by Bro. W. G. Strong, who acted as chairman. The Foresters have won the friendship of all by their determined efforts to please under the adverse circumstances with which they have had to contend. Reeve Sanders was in Goderich on county business last week. fq Terriff, who has lost her reason for the past two weeks, was taken to Walkerton Jail on Thursday, 24th inst. The reason for her insanity is supposed to be an over -strain on her nerves during her son's illness, which she faithfully attended as long as she was able. We sincerely hope and trust that she may soon be home to he • family again all right. Miss Murray hs s b Sen very poorly for the last week but now- is able to be about again. Miss Hermeston 's visiting her mother and friends here. She is not ashamed of the badge of the Salvation Army. That's right; we like to see people true to their colors.
