Death of Joseph Maluaid, Jr.—A very, safl death by k drowning tools place on Tuesday afternoon last about five o'clock, when Joseph McQuaid, eldest son, of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph McQuaid, McKillop, lost his life while in bathing in the Maitland River on Mr. Charles McGregor's farm in Hul- lett, about six miles from town. A party of four young men from town, Willard Elliott, Charles Dolmage, Ed- gar Brownlee and Joseph McQuaid went out for a bathe in the river. Brownlee and Dolmage could swim, while McQuaid and Elliott were un- able to. At this point the river is made treacherous by several deep holes.' Joseph McQuaid got beyond his depth to evade, and sank. The young men who could swim, had gone some distance down the stream when they noticed -their companion in dis- tress and swam back to his assistance and diving, brought him up, but were unable to get him on the bank. In their efforts to land him, he slipped from their grasp into the deep hole again, where they could not locate him. After some time Charles Mc- Gregor's son came on the scene, and with his assistance, they located the body, and very soon after he v�ais brought out on the bank, but the vital spark had fled as he had been in the water half an hour. Dr. F. J. Bur- rows was on the scene, but could do nothing as life was extinct. Joseph McQuaid was born on Lot 11,.Conces- sion 3, McKillop, 17 years and eight months ago He received his educa- tion at St. Columhan Separate school and Dubin Continuation school. Fif- teen months ago he accepted a posi- tion as junior with the Dominion Bank, Seaforth, and a week ago was promoted to ledger keeper and was very popular with thestaff of the bank and the business men of Sea - forth. In fact he was a general fav- orite with anyone who had the plea- sure of his acquaintance. Of a re- tiring disposition, his genial smile and good nature added materially to his personal popularity with all whom he had the pleasure to come in contact with. He took a keen interest in clean sport and was a member of the St. Columban W. F. A Football team and also of the Seaforth Junior Foot- ball team, and will be greatly missed by these organizations. He was the soul of honour and integrity and a promising life has been •snuffed out suddenly. He was a most,exemplary member of the Romain • Catholic church and always made his monthly Holy Communion. He is survived by his father and mother, and five bro- thers and four sisters, who in his sudden passing have been deprived of an honored and dutiful son and a kind and affectionate brother. The funeral was held front his late home on Thursday morning to St. Colum - ban church, where Rev. Father Dantzer, P. P., offered up requiem high mass for the repose of his soul. Rev. Father Goetz, of Seaforth, and Rev. Father White, of Dublin, being in the sanctuary, after which his mortal remains were conveyed to St. Columban cemetery and laid to rest. There was an immense concourse of people at the funeral, showing the high esteem in which he was held in the whole district and the town of Seaforth. The floral tributes were most,beautiful, including wreaths from the Dominion Bank Manager and Staff; from the Seaforth Football Association; sprays from Mr. and Mrs, Charles Dungey and Mrs. Walk- er: also from Bruce Philips, A. Reid, George Stewart, Harry I-fowe and Thompson Scott, and a wreath from his companions of his untimely end- ing, Willard Elliott, Edgar Brownlee, Chas. Dolmage; also fifty spiritual bouquets from friends and neighbors. The St. Coluteban football team marched in a hpdy in front of the funeral procession, the pall bearers being Messrs. Joseph Moylan, James McQuaid, Vincent Lane, Gilbert Mur- ray, Charles Malone and Ross Mc- Gregor. We extend to his sorrowing parente and brothers apd sisters the heartfelt sympathy of the community (Additional Local on page 4.) WELCOME.

Seaforth Talent Still in Evidence.— Dating back into the seventies, eigh- ties and nineties of last century, Sea - forth made a far-reaching name for itself in the realm of manly sport. This in part was due to the outside competitive spirit that entered there- in. And back of this, with fame not so widely spread, hut perhaps fully as deserving, was ability displayed in the town in other ways in which any competition arising would be based on a local status. For instance, amateur concerts and plays were staged that, if judged by press comment thereon, or from remarks made by persons who still speak with pride of the home talent in the long ago, it would com- pare favorably with the hest amateur shows put on anywhere in Ontario; yes, we might say, the Dominion. Many years have come and gone since then. yet the fascination for good public entertainment still survives, and the talent to provide it is by no means a thingof nester years. The town is still ot only willing to prove this, but will likewise do so, in Card - no's Mall. when the Murless Players present "Juliette," a three -act com- edy drama which had a continuous run for 'ane veai to caipacf'ty houses It Loddon, England. Persons who Mete 'visitors during Ofd Monroe Week eat give their guests ati unusual hoary" pleasure by taking them to see this play.
