Butler and his sister Miss Cora Butler plan to leave for Arizona, U.S.A. where the doctor will spend the winter for his health.1 Since October Dr% Butler has been iii and was dangerously ill in Oshawa hospital for a number of wveeks. We are sorry to see the doctor give up bis practice but he needs this well earned rest. Neyer has there been one more devoted and faithful to his profession than Dr. Butler. Throught storms and sun- shine he has practiced for 50 years, 34 of those years he has at- tended the sick in Newcastle and surrounding districts. From the horse and buggy to the automo- bile day s he has neyer faiied to answer a eall, no matter if it wa, only a frantic mother whose new baby had a touch of coiic or a pat- lent with a more serious ailment. There on the pad in his office was his message as to where he couic be reached. Citizcns have missed him vyen mnuch, for, since October, New- castle has been wihout a doctor. We understand a new doctor xvil soon take ox'er his place. We know that Dr. Butler's in- terest in Newvcastle xviii continue and xve hope that his trip to An.- zona xviii resuit in his complete recoverv and in the spring we xviii be iooking forward to seeing him home and again interested in bis garden wbich bas been his hobby. We hope also to see hlm at the bail games as he was ai. ways gneatly interested in young people's actix'ities. We ail wîsh him a safe journey, improved healtb and good luck.
