Mr. Williams was formerly of Napanee and was a very prominent citizen, occupied in its councils and at one time its mayor. He was connect ed with many good works while a resident and was always endeavoring to promote its welfare. He was the projector, as well as the promoter, of the Napanee, Tamworth and Quebec Railway company, and acted as a irector of same, and for many years was secretary to this company. Mr. Williams was a prominent worker in Walter Scott California, died | the temperance cause, being associat. ! ed for years with the late Dr. Oronhy- atekha and Thomas Casey, and Alex- ander Henry, Toronto, whose efforts were insistent for prohibition on all occasions, and never satisfied with any makeshift legislation such local option. - Mr. Henry published and edited, in connection with the late Dr. Oronhy- atekha, a temperance journal, called the Caske® for many years. Its in fluence was felt most advantageously for the cause throughout the province of Ontario. In connection with an organization, in which our late Williams was associated as secretary, the work of the Casket was a great help. Mr, Williams was most active in the campaign in which Dr. Oronhy- atekha, himself and the golden ton- gued advocate, Mr. Henry, took se- tive part, and Mr. Williams often re- turned elated over the fiery eloquence of his Irish associate in the cause. He was ever ready to lend his as sistance to any extent in furthering this cause of témperance and gave great credit for its advance, through its advocacy by Dr. Oronhyatekha and Mr. Henry. He remained firm in al legianve to the organization until Dr- Oronhyatekha became immersed in forestry work, and Mr. Henry, that great champion of prohibition, laid his Casket to rest. Mr. Williams was always alert in this work in which his heart seemed as centred, and one was inevitably re- | minded of determination and insist ence for good when our two towns- men, Williams and Henry, were seen together in those gays, and to each other were truly Jamon and Pythias. Mr. Williams was a man of great intellectual force and attainments He was most prominent in the coun cils of the Western Methodist church the late gentleman, John Gibbard and J. OC, Huffman, he assisted in building that congregation to its present strength and pride in righteousness. In his teachings of the truths of Christian life he has left us to-day the many fine examples in Christian fortitude, 'which we see in the lives of many now leaders in that church, in matters of spiritual effort. As a lawyer he was eminently fit ted to take the advanced position be did at an early age, and had he not, through desire to find security , from the possible inroads upon the health of those closely connected with him, to seek a milder climate to their ad- vantage, he would no doubt have been ere this occupying a high judjesl posi- tion in this province. In him practice of law he was sociated here with the late Mr, Mor. den, and in this, as in all other ways, he demonstrated that characteristic {of always seeking for the finding the best, in order to attach himselt there to. The old firm of Williams and Morden are to be remembered as the pure gold firm of practitioners, never giving an opinion without being con- vinced of their belief in its integrity. ~ LATEST SOCIETY CRAZE.
