The Late Robt. Henderson.
The following eference to the death
in-law of Mr. .H.Green, of Wingham,
whose death wa briefly aoted. iu our last
issue, is taken rom the Goderich Sig-
nal:—"The death of Deputy -jailer Rob-
ert Henderson st Friday removes from
our midst a mo t worthy citizen and one
who, during h s twenty-six years' resi-
dence here, ha by his kindly disposition
made many friends. Mr, Henderson
was born in Suotland in the year 1840
and came to anada in 1853 accompanied
by his mothe . They settled at first in
Hibbett town hip and four years later
removed to 5 Word, where Mr. Hender-
son lived till o received his appoint-
ment at the j 11, twenty-six years ago.
He was mare d in Goderich by the Rev.
Dr. Ure to M ss Agnes McTavish in the
year 1864 an since removing from Salt -
ford Mr. and Ire. flendersou had lived
on Napier st eet in the house from
which the fa ral took place on Mon-
day aftetnoo The funeral wds very
largely atten ed and the court -house
flag was pla ed half-mast. About
forty membe of the Masonic fraternity,
of which the °ceased had been a mem-
bet for over t irty years, attended the
funeral, ing a number of members
from tho Car w lodge. Mr. Henderson
had been a ing for the past seven
months but ad been away front the jail
only during e past fire weeks. Cancer
of the liver, 8 shown by the autopsy
which was h ld, is given as the cause of
death, To rs. Henderson and the
other relativ we desire to expiess our
sincere sym thy."
Opinion of t West.
Editor McDonald, f the Chesley
Enterprise recently ret ned home from
a trip to Manitoba and tl e West and here
is his opinion of the c wry :—"What
d3 you think of the We ? It is a won-
derful country with are possibilities for
young xnen who desire o live the inde-
pendent life of farm r. We think a
man on a rented farm n Ontario, or a
young man who has no arm and desires
one, should go to the West where he
will be farther ahead five years than
he would be in 15 year in this province,
though he is bound to ndergo consider-
ably more hardships the West with
its rigorous winters. ut to the Ontario
farmer who has pa sed the prime of
life and is free from d bt we would say
"Be content where yo are." The trails
of the prairie can nev couduce so much
to the pleasure of tl e traveller as the
good roads of Ontario the sod stables of
the Western agrieu uralist can never
compare favorably wi h the bank barns
of the yeoman of thi province. Then
think of the luscious f uits in the gar -
dots of Outario far ers, which the
people of the West ne r can have. A
Welwyn wotnan told she would like
to be in Bruce once mo e in the fall of
tne year to sea and fea t on the delicious
products of the pear, lum, and apple
trees."
