Nus Ewilf9t—The Wife of 1,4r, Alm
Ewing, Riven *atreet..-passed away on
(Saturda;y last, after a comparatively
short illnesa. She was a person of
quiet and retiringdisposition, warmly
attached to the Presbyterian church.
She resided with her husband for a
number of years in Mullett, prior to his
removal to town, and is spoken of as
being One Of the very kindest of neigh-
bors. "She" leaves a family of three
daughters,
Holm B/GliAm. -.-- This gentleman,
who has been a resident of -Minton for
nearly twenty years, passed away on
Wednesday at the age of 83 years
end 9 months. He was a natitee of Dum-
friesshire, Scotland, and lived for some
time in Markham township, subse-
quently settling in Mullett, when that
township was first opened up, and lived
for a number of years on the farm now
owned by Mr. Geo. Dale. His wife died
a number of years ago, andhis children
in infancy, and since that time he has
lived pretty much alone. He was an
exceedingiy scrupulous man, even to
the most minute details, and the Pres-
byterian church loses a zealous support-
er by his death. He has no near rela-
tions living. Politically he was a Re-
former.
Mn C. 4TICKSHANIT.—Our towns-
people were not surprised on hearing
of the death of Mr Cruickshand on
Saturday, though regretting the an-
nouncement, because he has been suf-
fering so long that his death was ex-
pecter at any time. For a considerable
time he has been suffering from a
cancer, and although he had consulted
the best medical authorities, obtained
but little relief, it being understood
that sooner or later it would result in
his death. Me was one of the oldest
'business men in the place, having car-
ried on a boot and shoe business for
years, and was regarded as an excep-
tionally good workman. His illness
compelled- him to give up business a
few weeks ago. He was an attendant
of the Presbyterian church. Political-
ly he supported the Liberal party. His
wife, one son andlour daughters sur-
vive him, two of the daughters being
Mrs A. Weir, of Petrolia, and Mrs W.
McGee, of Clinton, respectively.

• 'SLIGHT INForimaLiarv.—A slight
'error has occured in connection with
the -election for school trustees, but one
-that Is not likely to lead to any serious
•Orftquences, and one for which no
rie in particular is to blame. In St.
eines' Ward Mr McGarva retired by
affinxion of time; Mr T. Jackson, jr.,
%%IS fellow trustee in that ward, who
had another year to serve, but think -
ng that it was Mr Jackson who retired,
he was re -nominated and re-elected
'at the statutary nomination, and the
Mistake was not discovered until some
4ime subsequently. There is a provis-
ion in the law, whereby a mistake of
this nature may be rectified without
-nrach difficulty, and the Secretary hes
Communicated the facts to the Depart-
inent, and awaits instructions there -

„LECTURE—There was a fair, but not

Smith. Our carrier boys desire to ex-
press their thanks to the people of
town, for their generous treatment on
New Year's day. Such mild, spring-
like weather, as •that experienced on
Ne* Year's day, has not been known
here for years. Mr W. Downs has
bought the house and lot on Townsend
street, owned by Mrs H. R. 'Walker;
the price is about $800, at which figure
he has secured a good property. Mr I.
Jackson has rented the premises lately
occupied by Mr Glasgow, and will com-
mence business for himself. The brick
store on Albert street, lately occupied
by Mr C. Cruickshank, hhs been sold
to Mr C. S. Hyman, M.P., London, for
the sum of $1450. Mr a Avery, of the
London road, has just sold to a gentle-
man at Belgrave, a thoro-bred bull
calf, at a good figure. The slippery
condition of the streets on Saturday
made walking dangerous, but it was
something more than the condition of
the streets that caused the gyrating
movements of one person in particular,
whose actions caused considerable
amusement to the onlookers. Mr Rob-
ert Fitzsimons returns to Winnipeg
this week. We will have four eclipses
during the year, a total and a partial
each of the sun and moon. Another
aspirant to "fill a long felt want" is the
Hensall Observer, a paper that is cer-
tainly a credit to a vintage the size of
Hensall, if the editor intends to emu-
late Prof. Tanner, he may be able to
hold out till he is firmly established,
otherwise he will find the road to suc-
cess "hard to travel and well cut up."
There is more sickness in town, at
present, than was ever known at one
time before; in many instances both
heads, of the families being laid up.
Rev A. Stewart was called upon to per-
form the funeral rites for persons on
Monday, • Tuesday, Wednesday and
Thursday. The Conservatives of West
Huron will meet at Smith's Hill, on
Wednesday next. We are sorry to
learn that the sailor -boy Wixon, whose
legs were recently amputated, is not
recovering as well as anticipated, and
fears of the ultimate result are enter-
tained ; he has had the very best of
care and medical attention. Mr Al-
bert Seeley, of Lyndock, will come
back to work for Mr 0. Johnston. Mr
G. A. Mihell has just bought out the
boot and slime stock of Mr Wilkins,
Londesboro, at close figure. Miss H.
Combe was oneof the guests at the re-
ception given in • Toronto the other
evening, to the Canadian Society of
Musicians, by Mrs G. T. Blaeltstock.
