Mr. i Burrell and his two small sons were riding home in a buggy when they were struck by a car driven by Mr. H. Knott of Markdale. The boys were not seriously injured, but Mr. Burrell sustained a fractured skull. He waa operated u'pon on Tuesday night, bui the operation proved in vain. Mr. Burrell did no'', regain consciousness after the accident. Mr. Bur-'ell was born in Euphrasia township and was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Burrell and had lived in the vicinity of Markdale all his life. He is survived by hia widow, form- erly Miss Nellie Stevensoi ; four child- I ren, Mary, Robert, William and Don- 1 aid; his fathe-' and mother; three I brothers Jack. Archie and Bert; and I one sister. Mrs. Alex. Ferguson; all 1 living in the vicinity of Markdale. It is altogether probable that an inquest will be held to inquire into the circumstances surrounding the death of Mr. Burrell, although Crown Attorney T. H.

I' man, and though some sorrow j ... throw a passing cloud over the bright 'j" hour of gaiety or burst of revelry as * on the present home-coming celebra- ^ tion, there is a voice from the tomb sweeter even than the sweetest song, and there is a remembrance of the dead to which we turn even from the charm and association with the living. How beautiful is the memory of the dead! How it subdues all the harshness that grows ud within us in OUT daily intercourse with the world* How it meets our unkindness, softens our pride, kindles our deepest love and tasks our highest aspirations! How friend follows friend into the lonely dwelling place of the dead! Every year witnesses the departure of some one whom we knew and loved, and when we recall the names of alT who have been dear to us in life, how reverently we speak their names. Then let us emulate these much bel- oved and unforgotten souls; and if we have been guilty of causing one un- merited pang to that true heart which i % now lies cold and still in mother earth, 'j" then let us now not forget that every X unkind look, every ungracious v/ord,)' J; every ungentle action, will some time *"' come thronging back upon our mem- ories, sorrowing and repentant, pour- ing forth the unavoidable tear, more deep, more bitter, because unheard and'' unavailing. â€" R. i-1).
