U. F. 0. MEETING
The regular meeting of the Sea -
forth Branch of the United Farmers
of Ontario, held m the town hall on
Tuesday afternoon, held an unusual
interest for the people of both town
and eouptry, as interesting addresses
were' delivered 'by Mrs. Glenn, U. F.
0. director for South Huron. who
spoke un the Community Laundry
System, and Mr. J, J. Morrison, the
farmers' provincial secretary, who
dealt with many aspects of the work
of the organizationespecially the
educational port of it. He also spent
some time on the two party system,
which ne said had served its time.
Excellent reports were
read b
y
the
delegates, who attended the
conven-
tion in Toronto. There was a very
large attendance, the hall being
'packed to the doors, many being un-
able to secure admission, and it is
unfortunate that the club did not
secure a larger hall to accommodate
the numllrgrs who would have liked
to hear the two principal speakers
and especially Mr. Morrison, whose
name has become a family one in
the. Province during the past year.

day afternoon of last week. It aps
pears that. Mr. Horton, together with
a number of other farmers, was tak-
ing advantage of the sleigning to
draw some gravel on. the road run•
ring to the Hensen Union Cemeterw.
and after he had unloaded his load
and had turned around to go back
.to the gravel pit, he was found lying
.'just at the rear of his sleigh, with
life extinct, and it is thought that
the might have taken a weak turn
after his active duties in unloading,
and 'hate fallen from the sleigh on
founda. s
his head, for when he w
very shortly afterwards by another
farmer who was similarly engaged,
in drawing gravel, he'was dead and
had evidently passed away without
the slightest struggle. It was cer-
tainly a great shock to his wife when
the word was broken to her as gently
as possible, as the deceased had told
her that he expected to be -home for
an early tea, and when his body was
found just a short distance from
where he had evidently turned, it was
somewhere between four and five
o'clock, and the horses were standing
quietly attached to the sleigh. Mr.
Horton was a man of only fifty years
of age. and was a son of the late
Mr. Jahn Horton,. late of the West,
and was most highly respected for
his many splendid qualities. He
leaves to mourn his loss his beloved
wife, a daughter of the late Mr. Rice,
of Near Cromarty In religion the
deceased was a Methodist, and in
polities a Reformer, and at the funeral
serviee on Tuesday afternoon Mast his
pastor, Rev. Mr.. Rivera, paid a high
token of respect tb him as a church
memlber, neighbor and friend. On
account of his brother, Samuel Hor-
ton, coming from Alberta to attend
the funeral, and not getting through'
in time, the remains were held over
