The Late David McAuley Monday, April 20th, at the family | models, residence, Contre street, Pictom, sur- rounded by his immediate friends, David McAuley passed away peaceful- ly after a few months' confinement, meeting the end with the same eanlm- ness and serenity that had character- ized him as a man in every phase of a long and useful career, as a manly citizen of the county of Prince Id- ward. He was born in the North Marysburgh eighty VeRrs ago, and a goodly part of his life was de- voted to the development of his na- tive township. Te was the youngest son of Pavid McAuley and Ja Se. Greer, who sailed froin the city of Belfast for Canada in the year 1332. His father soon after settled in North Marysburgh, accumulated considerable property, and' after a useful citizen. ip died there in 1873. Since his death the farm Wms been owned and operated by his som, and is now part of his estate. For the past thirty years, in sddi- tion to farming, Mr. McAuley was ac- tively idemtified with fruit growing, evaporating and canning industries, the purchase of cheese, grain and fruit for home consumption and exporta tion, and during that time has been a familiar and honored figure in the home and foreign markets, frequently visited by him in the interest.of the various industries he represented. Mr McAuley was a citizen of hospitable and kindly disposition, noted by all who knew him for his honor and in tegrity, township of New Soft Hats.

Such a sad story appeals to, many who are not wise to the game, and it is often the case that a pathetic speecly of this kind results in the citizen open? ing his pocket hook and giving freely.

The man would not accept this kind offer. walked away, mumbling something about hard times. Of course there are men on the streets who are really in need of something. A case was drawn to the attention of the Whig, a few days ago, where a citizen took a stranger to a restau rant and secured a meal for him. Lat er on the ¢ditizen was surprised when had befriended, which, in addition to his note of thanks, contained thi price of the meal. | | | o* a w QUEEN'S EXAMS, RESULTS The Whig will this year, as usual, publish complete re- sults of Queen's college ex- examinations.
