Tas 'William Kennedy 2 Passes At Toronto, at the home of his son- in-law, Mr. Hugh White, 867 Bruns- wick Ave, on Monday the 26th of March, there passed peacefully away, the longest residing resident, and one of the most highly and deeply be- loved citizens of Port Perry in the person of the late William Kennedy. Mr. Kennedy was born in Dum- frieshire, Scotland, in 1837, and came to Canada when twelve years of age and lived for a number of years in Quebec. In 1861 he came to Port Peryr where, with the exception of a few years spent in Uxbridge, he has continuously lived. In 1863 he was married to Miss Elizabeth McConnell, of Manchester, who predeceased him by a number of years, Of the nine children born to them seven are still living, viz; William of Port Colborne, Thomas J. at Buffalo, Margaret (Mrs. Hugh White) at Toronto, Ethel May, (Mrs. Barnard) Vancouver, Maud at Viec- toria, B. C., Gertrude at Port Perry, and Clarence Bryce in New York. several years with the Sexton Milling Company, and afterwards was en- gaged in the grain buying business. He was a great souled man, who even at the ripe age which he attain- ed was filled with the joy of life. Because of his kindly, sympathetic nature, guileléssness of character and mental endowment, he was highly respected and loved by all. A Presbyterian in religion, and a staunch Conservative in politics, Mr. Kennedy throughout his life was a real strength to the church and com- munity. The Orange Order had in Mr. Kennedy an active, enthusiastic and most creditable member--The Ken- nedy Lodge at Utica being named after him. His 1emains arrived on Tuesday morning via G. T. R. and were con- veyed to his home. On Wednesday they were borne to St. John's Presby- terian Church, of which he was an exemplary and consistant member, where funeral service was conducted by his pastor, Rev. J. T. Hall, after which interment took place in Pine Grove Cemetery, Prince Albert.

The supper and social held in the Methodist Church last Friday even- ing was a decided success--not par- ticularly from a financial point of view for that could scarcely be ex- pected from the price charged and the quality of the meals served. That, however, was not the first consideration, but the social part was, and from that standpoint it was a decided success. The sociability that was everywhere apparent was good to see and the whole evening was _intersperced with musical selections. A duet by Madaline Tummonds and Melville Williams (two pupils from Miss G Stovin's school, north of Port Perry) 'as other selections by the Methodist Sunday School children. .
