4% E PAGE 5: RNRT PERRY RAst BADLY INJURED WAS STRUCK BY GRAND TRUNK TRAIN Star: Last Thursday Rev. Geo. Ty- ner went for a walk up the railway track. He was in the habit ‘of taking these walks at times taking his sketching material along. This morn- ing he had travelled past the Yel- low Schoolhouse. He sat dOWn on the bank to rest awhile before the noon train came along. Just exactly what did happen only Mr. Tyner will be able to tell; and he himself is hot at all clear in his mind as to the oc- currence. It seems as though he had been dozing somewhat while he rested and on hearing the train woke up with a start, and in his confusion ran into the train instead of getting aWay from it. The last coach struck him and his skull was fractured. He was picked up unconscious, placed on the train. and hurried to the doctor.

The patient is doing well, and will probably recover. His father and sis- teri (the latter a. trained nurse) are both with him. It is intended to re- move him to his home ‘as soon as his condition permits. Rev. Geo. Tyner has not been in Port Perry many months, but dur- ing his short stay, he has won for himself many friends, and the good wishes of all who knew him. He is a good preacher, and an energetic worker in his parish. The congrega- tion of the Church of the Ascension feel keenly the result of the accident, which deprives them for the time be- ing of a most capable leader. «WM»- ~â€" ing farther east the line goes through Oshawa, crosses the G.

The July meeting of the Cambray branch of the Women’s Instituteywas held on July 5th at the home of Mrs Henry Tompkins. There was a good attendance. Mrs. MacEllroy of Lin- den Valley, gave a splendid paper on “Character,” and Mrs. Ray arcad- ing on.“Coloring.a life,” both were very instructive and interesting. Mrs Dougal Gordon gave an instrumental solo that was much enjoyed and Master Carl Weldon favored us with an amusing recitation. God Save the King brought a profitable meeting to a close. Employes’ camps have been estab- Ished at Greeburn, Cheery'wood, and Cedar Grove-Telegram. ' “You will realize” said one of the engineers, "the difficulties we have to overcome when I tell you that the new track will eventually be a double one and will shorten the distance between Toronto and Montreal, while it will also possess the great advantage of having an easier grade. About 5,000 men are already engaged on the whole line at various points and as soon as the right-of-way is vauired at any particular section, the work of conâ€" struction is pushed on.” POWLES CORNER CAMBRAY ERNEST SCOTT.
