CALEB SOUTHON The death of Mr. Caleb Southon, at his home in Lakeport, on Saturday, Oct. 1st, 1921, removes an honourable business man and an highly respected citizen.

Morrow of Colborne) lost by fire his bain and all the contents, comprising season's crops, farm implements, and about 125 hens. Cause of fire unknown. Only small insurances..
