Peck dealing with the evils of tobacco, whether used in pipe, cigar or cigarette was next in order on the programme and this paper fairly bristled with facts and figures dealing with the evil of tobacco and in which the highest medical practi- tioners and authorities were cited in confirmation. The paper showed most careful -thought and prepara- tion on the part of Dr. Peck and was well read and received by the audi- ence. At. the close of this Mr. R. E. Cook delighted the audience with a fine musical selection on the piano, accompanying himself at the same time with the mouth organ, which made a fine combination. Rev. Mr. Donnelly, aFtor of the James Street Methodist huyeh, Exeter, was then' ealledl on : r `Sri''' hdress; which he gave in„all eaceejlent manner, being a forceful and fluent speaker and com- bining in his address, in a very happy manner, both wit and instruction. 'This brought the programme to a close with the exception of the clep- ing hymn by the fine church orches- tra, who played several fine selections during the evening, and the audience dispersed feelbig that they had en- joyed a mostzpleasant evening's en- tertainment. Death of Andrew Morrison. -An- other sudden death occurred here on Tuesday morning last, in the person of the late Andrew Morrison, who had been living with his sisters, Mrs. D. McNaughton and Mrs. Alexander Swan, both of this village, for a number of years in turn and before they came to the village. The de- ceased was in poor health for a long. time and quite helpless, being unable to leave his room, so that death came to him as somewhat of a happy re- lease. The funeral was held on Wed- nesday last to McTaggart's cemetery and was quite` largely attended by relatives and 'friends. The deceased passed away at the me of his sis- ter, Mrs. Alexander Swan, who to- gether with her sister, Mrs. D. Mc- Naughton, had so kindly and patient- ly taken care of him for so many years. Death of Samuel Horton. -On Mon- day night last our villagers were shocked to learn of. the very sudden death of one of our much respected residents in the person of Mr. Samuel Horton, a son of the late Samuel Horton, late of the Township of Us - borne, The death occurred at the home of Mr. and Mrs- W. N. Glenn, of the Township of Usborne, where a meeting in the interests ot" the U. F. E. was being held and to which Mra. Glenn had specially invited' a number of her neighbors, among whom was Mr. Horton. At the close of the meeting and during ' which some fine musical selections had been given, it appears that Mr. Horton in picking up the violin on which his nephew, Mr. Gordon Bolton, had been playing during the evening, jokingly said to his niece, Miss Rossie Broad - foot, "Suppose we give them_ a little music," and 'suiting the action to word he picked up his nephew's violin and commenced playing in his usually skilful and whole -hearted way. Af- ter playing thus for a few minutes he laid the violin down and moved to- wards the hall, presumably to get a little cooler air as the room was warm and he was somewhat flushed by playing in his usual rapid manner, when he was noticed to reel and fall to the floor, death, no doubt; by heart failure, being"almost instantaneous. It goes without saying the shock caus- ed to all present, where only a few minutes before such a pleasant and social time was being held, and al- though medical aid' was quickly sum - !noted it was found of no avail,. as life had departed. What, makes this occasion particularly sad is the fact that only two months ago, *hen the deceased was spending a Sabbath at the home of his brother, Henry, near- prucefleld, in' com��ppany, with his sis- ter, Misa .Ellett Horton; who kept honed ,for htm at that, tinte,•and'for WOW Nark'iq d!te,: � " 'o delf eat - TUCKF6RSMITH 1 West End Notes. -A number of the farmers of this neighborhood got their beans threshed last week. - Miss Grant, the popular teacher of S.
