He was married there tc the former Miss Mary Ann Sharp and with their young family moved to Sturgeon Falls in 1896 It was in 1908, when the T, & N, O. Railway was being built, that they moved to Haileybury, when Mr. Sutherland, a carpenter by trade, was engaged in the erection of stations and other buildings along the line of the new railway.

A clever craftsman, he took great pride in his work during his more active years; took an interest in affairs of his community and was fond of sports. For a good many years he was a member of the local curling club, and tribute was paid to his memory by the men aitending the bonspiel this week when during the time the funeral service was being held on Tues- day afternoon, the schedule was delayed for an hour in order that curlers might attend and thus express their sympathy with the { CHURCHES O22. 6 The United Church Minister--Rev.

A "Sutherland rink" com- posed oi four of the brothers, was to have played in the 'spiel, but the entry was withdrawn when their father passed away. The funeral service was held in the United church and was con- ducted by Rev. A. P. Addison. Interment was in Mount Pleasant cemetery. Ina brief address dur- ing the servie, Mr. Addison said that the late Mr. Sutherland had lived a full and useful life, and his death came quietly and peace- fully among his loved ones. "His life might be likened to a "ship which had followed its course faithfully and arrived at its final port. We know that the Harbor Master will deal kindly with the ship which has followed its true course,' Mr. Addison said. "These men who have seen the North grow up and have had a share in its development leave to us a challenge to tackle the new era with the same kind of spirit they had. They say to us "This is what we did, and we should do our best to live up to the example they set before us." Six of Mr. Sutherland's sons acted as pallbearers at the fune- ral, Duncan, Gerald, James, Earl, William and Douglas. All mem- bers of the family, with the ex- ception of Kenneth, who has _ his home in British Columbia, were present for the funeral, and many last respects to one who was so well and favorably known overa long period of years. A_ great profusion of floral tributes also Eee the sympathy that is felt for members of the family. CHIEF URGES CARE IN HANDLING FIRES TO AVOID TRAGEDIES Recent reports over the radio have indicated that loss of life of dear ones has been caused by suffocation from coal gas. ing the heating equipment. Many people in their haste to go outor to go to bed put on fresh fuel and close drafts before allowing the gases to escape. May we suggest not to leave children at home alone without a responsible guardian. These dear ones are not aware of the dangers that face them and in emergency cas- old friends attended to pay their|/fL-- This]. being due to improper care in fir-]* everyone to take the necessary precautions so that our town will be kept free from such a tragedy. K. R. WATSON, Fire Chief Victoria Cross Winner is Cousin of Haileybury Man Major John Weir Foote, first Canadian padre to win the Vic- toria Cross, is a cousin of J. S Weir of Haileybury. It will be recalled that an article appearec in these columns late last year when Major Foote returned after spending 34 months as a prisoner ot the Germans following the Dieppe raid, telling something of his experiences. Now the highest honor in the British Empire has been bestowed on _ him for his great work, both during the raid and later when he spent the years of his captivity in adminis- tration to the Canadian soldiers who fought so valiantly in that battle. Major Foote is now sen- ior chaplain at Camp Borden and is the subject of newspaper ar- ticles, radio broadcasts, etc., in all of which the highest tribute is being paid.
