Hobbs was one of the boys belonging.to the Tomlinson Methodist Sunday School, having been for some time secretary «of the Young Men‘s Class before he removed to the city some two or three years ago and on visits out to. his friends at Tomlinsonâ€" was always greeted with kindest feelings. A few weeks ago he, along with Mr. M. Elâ€" ford, went to Northern . Ontario to work in the lumber camp and while thus engaged a tree fell in a different direction than he anticipated and fell upon him, injuring his back, that he died very soon after being hit. Mr. Milton Elford and a friend brought his remains to the home of Mr. W. Elford, from which the funeral was held. The service was conducted by the Rev. G. B. King, M.A., B.D., at the house and cemetery.. The local L. ©. L. was represented and the order of service by the officers was read over the grave. The affair cast a gloom ovâ€" %; the immediate neighbohood, where " J. Hobbs was well known and ‘Sgreatly respected. ~On Friday las'% Hassan Neby, the Alâ€" banian accused and convicted of the murder of Geo. Tucker,. a . bridge worker on the C. P,, R., went to the scaffold and paid the penalty of his <crime, still protesting that he was inâ€" nocent. It will be remembered that the crime, one of the most brutal, was committed on a C.P.R. siding just morth of Westbn last May, when the alleged criminal entered. the boarding car and murdered his victim, robbing h-im of some of his possessions, which afterwards led to the discovery and «conviction of the doomed.. At the trial ‘and from then on Neby had stated he knew nothing of the, crime, was not even in Weston, and the stolen artiâ€" ‘€les had been placed in his room by some one so as to place the guilt on him. His statements, never very clear as to his exact whereabouts and occuâ€" pation at the time of the murder, were overthrown by more reliable evidence, and the judge, jury, and all connected with the case felt that the cireumâ€" ‘stantial evidence was so clear that it was impossible to bring in a verdict of ‘not guilty. Three of the local resiâ€" dents testified as to his presence near the scene on that date, also the street «car conductor remembered seeing him. on the suburban car coming out from the city. His record was one) of a very low morality. He is survived. by his wife and family, who live in Alâ€" ‘bania. hss Webbâ€"Rowbottom _ The home of Mr. and Mrs. A. Webb, Church Street, Humber Bay, was the iscene of a quiet but pretty wedding on ‘Wednesday (Xmas Day), when their daughter, Winifred, was united in marriage to Mr. Geo. Rowbottom, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. Rowbottom â€" of ELambton. Road, Humber. Bay. The ‘ceremony was performed by Rev. G. B. King, pastor of Tomlinson Methodâ€" istéChurch in the presence of the imâ€" Hassan Neby, the lym'derer of. Georg Tucker, Went to His Death Proâ€" testing His Innocence. & miediate friends of the bride and groom. .The bride wore a lovely cosâ€" tume of white silk trimmed with '_p‘i»i;i;k and was ‘given away . by her father, and was unattended. After «congratulations and supper the happy couple left for their cottage on Lambâ€" ton Road. & WwEDNESDAY, JANUARY gTH, 1919 ALBANIAN PAID PENALTY THE DEAD WEDDINGS 2e The annual meeting of School Secâ€" tion No. 14, Etobicoke, was held on Thursday morning at 10 o‘clock.. Mr. J. W. Allen was voted to the chair and J. A. Hewitt acted as secretary. The trustees‘ and inspectors‘ reports were presented, which showed that the work of the school board and teachâ€" ers during the past year had been carâ€" ried on‘ in an able and efficient way. The auditors‘ report was presented by the secretaryâ€"treasurer, and the audiâ€" tors speaking to the weport, said that the books were kept in a very painsâ€" taking manner and so, arranged as to be understood at a glance. The variâ€" ous items were systematically recordâ€" ed. Mr. H. T. Umpleby was reâ€"elected trustee for the ensuing year. .A motion re rural mail was carried unâ€" animously. The motion on military training met with serious opposition. The election of trustees resulted as folâ€" lows: J. W. Allen was nominated for reâ€"election, but declined, as he thought after nine years of service some other ratepayer should take his share of the work. Mr. Jos. Hewitt was elected for three years, making 1919 board as follows: Messrs. W. S. Moss, E. Whitâ€" worth and J. A. Héwitt. Moved and seconded that we, the ratepayers of School Section No. 14, Etobicoke, would humbly request the Honorable Postmaster General at Otâ€" tawa that he grant this section rural mail delivery as already petitioned. We would also ask his reâ€"consideraâ€" tion of the amount of salary offered to the person who would undertake the work of delivering the mail. We would say that when prices are \ so high for horse feed and other things that two hundred and sixtyâ€"five dolâ€" lars, or about cightyâ€"five cents a day, would not pay for the necessary outâ€" fit, let alone the, wages of the man who did the work. . A copy of this resâ€" ‘olution be sent to Capt. T. Wallace, member for this constituency, and he be asked, to take up the matter with the Postmaster General. A most successful Xmas tree was held in Westmount on Saturday, 28th December. Every. child under 19 years of age on the estate received a present and other nice things. The house was packed in every room,about 40° children being present, and quite a number of the parents attended. Mr. Geo. Roberts took the chair. Dr. Irâ€" win\ made a‘" very able speech, in which he stated that the residents themselves had the government â€" of this estate in their own lands, and by all pulling together could make Westmount an ideal spot. He compliâ€" mented all on the way this society had been taken up and offered free of cost any lot they liked to choose on the estate to build a hall for the use of all on the estate. Mrs. Geo. Robâ€" erts presented the presents and much praise is due to her and Mr. Boot, who with the other ladies on the commitâ€" tee for the great success. of this first social of the Association. 3 Moved by W. S. Moss that we, the ratepayers of School Section No.\14, Etobicoke, in annual school meeting, would ‘humbly enter our . protest against the alteration of the Public School Act so as to . make military training of â€"boys «attending‘ public school part of the physical training in the schools compulsory, as we beâ€" lievefit would foster a spirit of miliâ€" tarism in the coming| generations inâ€" stead of a spirit of peace.. Furtherâ€" more, we believe our teachers in the rutal schools have already as many subjects as they can teach with satâ€" isfaction to the parents and the school boards. «We also believe that it would be putting work upon them, which we consider unnecessary in the public schools of Ontario. For should it evâ€" er again occur that Canada should send her sons to fight, which we hope will never again be needed, our boys will be found ready to, take their part and do for their king and counâ€" try as they have done during the war just ended. We would therefore humâ€" bly pray that you, the Minister of Edâ€" ucation, will fot entertain the petiâ€" tion that is being presented to you to alter the School Act, to include: miliâ€" tary training in public schools in Onâ€" tario, and that a copy of the resoluâ€" tion be forwarded to Hon. Cody, Minâ€" ister of Education for Ontario. The first business . meeting of the Richview Farmers‘ Club for this year will be held in the club rooms on Monâ€" day, January 13th. A full attendance is requested, as several matters of imâ€" portance will be brought up for disâ€" cussion.

A man from ‘the Imperial Oil Co. will also be present and lay before the members the) oil situation. Since the eJection of officers at the annual mecting held in December, a change has been made.
