Many of our readers will remember him as a popular successful Pastor of Black- stockvCircuit, tho his last charge was at Coboconk north of Lindsay.- He was at prayer meeting the evening previous to his death and Dr. R. W. Kimball, 709 Dewey Ave., an officer of Grace Church, writes us that he made a splendid prayer. He was seized with apoplexy about noon the next day and the following morni g passed to his reward. He was in his 75th year and is survived by his wife, four sons and seven daughters, three daughters and four sons being in-Ontario, one daughter in the north-west, and one son and two daughters in -the United States. Since going to Rochester he has been identified with Grace Methodist Church on Driving Park Ave., where the funeral service took place Monday afternoon, interment taking place at Riverside, cemetery. : In all recipes calling for Baking, Powder use Royal Baking Powder.
