YOUNG MAN PASSED AWAY AT FERGUS Mr. Newton Bannon, Age 32, Pases Away After Short Illness HIGHLY RESPECTED A peculiarly sad death occurred in Fergrus hospital on Friday last when Mr Newton Bannon, son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Bannon, Toronto line south, near Victoria Comers, passed away after two operations for appen- dicitis and adhesion of the bowels. A week ago last Saturday Newton was working and in good health. Sunday morning he complained of a pain and Dr. Tumbull was called. The Dr. had him taken to Fergus the same day, where he was at once op- erated upon for appendicitis. Later it was decided that a second opera- tion was necessary and tis was ac- complished Thursday morning with little hope of saving his life. He came out of the anaesthetic but a couple of hours afterward the spirit took its flight. The deceased young man was only 32 years of age, and leaves a young wife and three small children, the eldest under five years of age. New- ton was an exemplary young man and his death is a severe blow to family and friends. The bier was a mass of beautiful flowers donated by rela- tives and friends. The funeral was held on Monday of this week to Flesherton cemetery and was attended by a host of friends and relatives. There were between forty and fifty motor cars in the procession, it being a motor funeraL This family has been called upon to bear more than its share of burden and sorrow during the past few years. One son. Max.. died of the flu at Van- couver during the war while on his way to Vladivostock with the army.

Doran, who was 52 years old, Uved j with his mother, aged 83. A cottage prayer-meeting had been held at their home last night, but he remained in his room.
