The members of the Fire Department were also in attendance to do honor to the deceased, who was a valuable and active member of the Brigade. Mrs. Benton and the family have the sympathy of the community in their sore bereavement. Some five or six weeks ago Mrs. Donald Maclienzie, a resident of this town for over forty-five years, was Stricken with paralysis, and since that time, though apparently better at 1nterxa.s, he: recoxery was haldl) expected. Last week she continued to grow gradually worse and the end seemed near. A telegram to her only surviving son. Alex., in Denver, Col- orado, summoned him home, where he arrived on Friday night, only to see his aged mother during the last few hours of her life, death having released her of her sufferings on Sun- day morning about nine o’clock. The deceased was born in the County of Lam-ark, nea1 the town of Perth, in 1827. Over for’t3 five years ago she was ma11ied to the late Don- ald \lacl'ienzie, and moved shortly; afterwards to Durham, where She lived ever since. The result of the union was five children, three of whom survive, one son, Alexander, who has been a resident of Denver [for a. number of years, and two daughters, Misses Annie and Bella, at. home. Four b1'0thers also survive her viz :â€"Lachlau McNaughton, near Varney, Donald. at. Chesley, and Duncan and John, nearSmitl1’1-1Falls, in the County of Lanark. The deceased, though healthy, was not exceedingly rugged, and owing to an attack of rheumatic fever some years ago, her strength was some what diminished, and being naturally a quiet retiring nature She was very seldom away from her home. Mrs. MacKenzie was highly reSpected in the community, and the mourning family and relatives have the sym- pathy of all in their sad bereavement. The remains were interred Tuesday in the Durham Cemetery, Rev. Mr. Farquharson officiating at the house and grave. A valuable cow belonging to Mr. Sangster Hemphill at the. station met with a. strange deaph on Friday night last. She was found dead in the field on Saturday morning. and no cause for death being visible an autopsy was performed by Dr. Otte- well, V. 8.. who discovered that- the animal had at: some time swallowed a common pin which had gradually worked its way to the heart, and. the instant. the point had touched that sensitive piece of mechanism poor “ Bossy " dropped dead. â€"â€"Flesherton Advance .

Acton Free Press: Acton friends had a visitor this week who this year had a memorable experienceâ€"~ coming short. of seeing his own funeral procession and the open grave whehin he was to have been buried. Last May, Edward McCul- lough, son of Jas. McCullough, 1%qu of Eramosu, while working with his brother in the northwest, was taken ill with appendicitis. This fact; was intimated to the friends at home and subsequently a telegram reached them to be prepared to meet. Edward at Guelph, who would reach home by a certain train. The wording of this message following the previous infor- mation of his serious illness led all at home to conclude that Edward had succumbed to the illness and that it was his remains they were to meet. Preparations were accordingly made for the funeral, a grave was dug in: the family plot in the cemetery at the Methodist church, near the Cen- tre Inn, Eramosa‘ and the friends then went in sad procession to meet the train at Guelph. When the train arrived they proceeded to the express car to receive the expected remains, but imagine their consternation and feeling of joy when Edward alighted from one of the passenger coaches and walked up to them. Instead of going: to the cemetery he went to the Guelph General hospital where an operation was successfully performed and he was recently discharged in the enjoyment of good health.-â€"Ac- ton Free Press.
