Besides his mother and the brother and sisters already referred to he leaves two other brothers Joseph and Charles engaged at the Old Stand where for many years their father, who died four years ago, conducted a successful business at tinsmithing.

Though Hugh John is said to be “ a chip 03 the old block” the Grits will find out that he isn’t a wooden man. ,-.- The local papers are devoting so much space to prize lists that they read like imperfecs township direct- ries more than anything else. It’s awfully strange that only foolish peOpIe bring us to task for our foolish sayings. No one of any weight ever tackles the job. Hugh John’s nose is one of the “ prominent features ” of Grit news- paper argument in the present cam. paign, It’s quite in line with the party rule to magnify small things. “ I thank God I’m not Irish ” said Pete Paterson to Christy Williams. but he had the words hardly uttered when Christy replied “ I thank God I am Irish.” The crowd laughed and Pete sneaked.
