He was shown the box. Then he asked where the "W" was. This happened to be close beside the “1’." He said not a word, but went to his of- lfice.

The late Joseph Hacking, who afterwards established the Acton Free Press and other newspaper businesses, was also a journeyman under the late Mr. Cooper. Another journeyman under the deceased was the late Joseph Craig, of Peterboro, who established a newspaper in the town of Walker- ton.

Mr. Joseph Cooper was box, at Killala, County Mayo, Ireland, and at the age of fourteen was appren- ticed to a Mr. Verdtm, publisher of the Sligo‘ Champion, what would now be termed a Unionist newspa- per. At the end of five years ap- prenticeship he emigrated ~to the United States, but after a short ex- perience at New York and Phila‘ delphia, he determined again to come under the old flag, and located in Toronto. There he worked on the Globe, when Messrs.’ George and Gordon Brown were the responsible editors, C. W. Bunting, late manager 81 THE WATcmuAwaRDER for some time foreman for William Lyon Mackenzie, in printing his Message. In a recent article written by Mr. Cooper he said: “ There were few more independent. patriotic 01') hon- est politicisnas to be found in those days, or I may say since, than. Mr. Mackenzie, and few worked harder in the business. There were many oc- casions when the writer' had to re- main in his sanctum to keep him awake while he was reading probis, his drowsiness being attributed to the late hours which he spent com- piling the history b! his chequered life In 1856 tfledate Mr. Cooper came to Omemee, where in company with one J oseph' Twell, he established the Metcali Warder. The partnership lasted but a short time, and when Mr. Twell withdrew Mr. Cooper con- tinued the paper. When the name of the village was changed it beâ€" came the Omemee Warder, and into year 1866 “was removed to Lind ,; and was again changed to the Vic- toria Warder; this from the very outset proved a successful undertak- ing. Mr. Cooper sold the Warder to Mr. Edward Flood, who after be- ing proprietor for a short time sold to C01. Sam. Hughes, M.P. Mr. Cooper retired from active work for about five years and then he es- tablished the Lindsay Watchman, which paper he conducted for several years. He then' sold the Watchman to the late George Lytle, who later on also bought the Warder and the two papers became one. For the last fifteen years the de- ceased gentleman has been working for his son-in-law, Mr. J. D.

An interesting incident in regard to the life of the deceased is told as follows: When he first moved to Lindsay in the year 1866 from Ome- mee there was no railway service in the evening and‘ Mr. Cooper was in the' habit of walking to his home in Omemee every night and back again the following morn- ing to his work. The late Mr. Cooper was one of the oldest Free Masons in the town politics he was of course. a staunch ConserVative, a. life-long follower of the Tory cause, and as such he, did valiant work {or his party.
