Bos- worth, who patrols Highway No. 10 from Orangeville north, has been checking up motorists in this district. A local man was fined $30 on four infractions â€" no reflector on his truck, didnt carry his permit, brakes were defective and failure to stop at a stop sign on the highway. In stopping Jjack Ariss of Corbet- ton, who attends the local high school, the Traffic Officer undertook to cest the brakes of the Ariss car himself and got into the driver's seat of the car, a Model T Ford. As he applied the brakes there was a sound as if something had broken in the back of the car. With difficulty the car was driven home, only to find that the housing had a hole broken in it from the broken mechanism in the defer- ential. We understand that no agree- ment has been reached as yet regard- ing responsibility for the damages.â€" Dundalk Herald.

Bellamy Died Snddenly Saturday Last week we mentioned the happy event of the 82nd birthday of Mr. Chas. W. Bellamy of town, and this week we have to chronicle his sudden passing at his home Saturday evening. He apgeared to be in excellent health and that day had accomplished a full day's work at his carpentry business, returning home about seven o'clock. He entered his home and in a few moments went to the barn. His leng- thy absence caused his daughter, Miss Reta, to become alarmed and she commenced a search and found him in an outhouse. She secured help from her cousins, Messrs. A. E. Bell- amy and Robt. Bellamy, who carrieo him into the house. A doctor was called immediately and death was found to have been instantaneous. He was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Bellamy and was born at Cannington, Ont., on November 5th 1850. and when 17 years of age moveC with his parents to this vicinity, whort When he came to this district he walked the entire distance from Col- lingwood to a farm taken up near Pcrtlaw. Ae few years later he wan ried to Miss Anna Jones, who prede- ceased him 12 years ago, and to them were born seven daughlers and ons son: Alberta (Mrs. Dinsmore) Stran- raer, Sask., Lizzie (Mrs. Shaw, Mark- dale, Cora (Mrs. Geo.

J. Bellamy, I erk of Artemesia townehip and Flesherton village. He also leaves 30 grandchildren and 1-1 great grand- childr«'n. He was a jnember of St. John's United church, was a conservative in politics and was also a member ^l Prince Arthur Lodge No. 333, A.F. & A.M. The late Mr. Bellamy for many years was assessor of Artemesia town- ship and aJso served for several terms in the village council. Prior to mov- ing to Flesherton 17 years ago he farmed a mile south of Flesherton, at the same time carrying on his trace as carpenter, which he worked at right up to the hour of his death. He was highly regarded as a man by all who came in contact with him and his sudden passing was a shock to his many friends throughout this district. The funeral is to take place Thurs- day afternoon with service at his late residence at 2 p.m., interment to take place in Flesherton cemetery. The Masonic brethren will give their beau- tiful funeral service at the house and graveside. Mrs. Miller is arriving by train to-day (Wednesday) and is the only one from the West who can come His son, Edgar, is ill at his home in Evanston, 111., having spent the past month in a hospital and will not be able to attend. The sympathy of the entire com munity is extended to the family in th«ir kour of trouble. cided Judge Costello of Huron County who declared the car of an implement agent exempt from seizure by the sheriff. The agent's territory, where he sells fertilizer, is thirty miles long and fifteen miles wide, and the judge decided it would be utterly impossible for hm to carry on his job without a car. "I cannot hold otherwise than that this man's car is a chattel nec- essary for his calling," said Judge Costello. The judgment is interest- ing in that it is believed to have set a precedent.
