He spoke of the many friends Mr. Read had made in the community and of the high esteem in which he was héld and how his genial per. sonality would be missed. As a slight token of remembrance of those pres- ent he brought forth a beautiful mahogany smoking cabinet, while all joined In "For He's a Jolly Good Fellow." In a few well chosen remarks, Mr. Read replied and thanked those who had been so kind as to think of him in such a a He expressed his regrets at leaving . enham, but would at with him pleasant memories of the true friendship he was leaving, During the evening, Reeve Sam- uel Jamieson, of Batterses, spoke elaborately on "Our Present Govern. ment and the Political Situation."

THE DAILY BRITISH WHI G (TAKING A SUNDAY NAP BUT WAS DISTURBED Man Who Hit the Disturber Fined $5 in the Police Court. If you were at peace with all the world, and had arranged to take a long Sunday morning nap, how would you like to be rudely disturbed at 8 am. and told that you would have to get up? A middle-aged man, who secured a room at a local rooming house on Saturday night, had this happen to him, and as a result of the action hé took when disturbed from his slumb- ers, he was hailed before Magistrate Farrell on Tuesday morning, charged with assault. He admitted striking the man who broke into his room and told him he would have to get up, and was fined $5 and costs. His cake brought forth a very interest- ing dialogue. "Are you gullty or not guilty," queried the cadi. "Your Honor, I am guilty under: the circumstances." "What are the circumstances?" "Well, your Honor, it was just like this," explained the accused, in a sort of heart-to-heart talk with the magistrate. "I was asleep at the time---or at least I was just dosing. I intended to' sleep a little late, a} it was Sunday morning. I think it was about 8 o'clock. I did not want to get up, and 1 did not think any per- son. could make me get up early, This man pushed open my door in a very abrupt manner, and told me I had to get out of bed. He also pushed a chair in through the door. I told the man I did not know I had to get up. There was no notice posted up to this effect. This fellow ap- peared to be like a boss. I lost my temper and I hit him. I sam sorry as 1 did not intend to do anything like this." The magistrate stated "that he would impose a fine of $5 and costs or ten days, whereupon the accused stated that he was very sorry, but that he could not pay the fine,' and would have to go to jail. "What are you working at?" agk- ed the magistrate. "lI am _ not in a position to do anything. 1 have been sick. I get pains in my side. 1 cannot do very much work, besides there 18 not much to do. Yesterday I got my first job in several months, but I was unable to do anything as I am in such a bad state." "Yousshould have thought about all this before you committed the as- sault," remarked the magistrate, in finally disposing of the case.

A. six here last night, winning by a 10-2 score. The period scores were 3-0, 7-1, 10-2. The ice was keen and the erowd large. Belleville should have run up & bigger score, but for the perform. ance of Murray, rienced net minder, the locals having twice as many shots on goal as the visitors. Brockville, with a weaker team of homebrews than last sedsom, lacked combMation, were mediocre stick- handlers and weak and erratic shoot ers. After they became limbered, Belleville worked strong two and three-man combination for goals. Hagerman and Saundercook marred the otherwise clean game by a fisti- cuff exhibition near the end which gave them each a five-minute rest. Murray, in goal, Sheridan and Saundercook were the best for Brock ville, Goyer brothers and Whalen go- ing good for Belleville with Frech- ette, a substitute, Sheridan's wrist was injured in the first, but he econ- tinued. Line-up: Brockville--Goal, Murray: de- fence, Saundercook and Sheridan; centre, Lorraine; wings, Frego and Higgins; subs, Christopher and Gar- rand. Selleville--Goal, Boland; defence, Green and F. Goyer; centre, Al Goy- er; wings, Hagerman and Whalen; subs, Frechette and Hunter. Referee--Harold Farlow. ' GREB WON DECISION. Bat Britisher Forced Him in the Last Round.
