Mnry Bill- Elvid We have this week the exceedingly painful task of recording the death of our beloved mother, who departed this life on the evening of May lst after an illness of only afew days duration. Though unknown to the great majority of our areaders. we crave the privilege of a short obitu- ary. On the 20th of February. 1825. our dear deceased parent was born in the County of Sligo, Ireland, of humble but honest parents with whom she lived until she was about twentyfive years of age In 1850 she came to Canada, and for two years lived in the township of Chinguaconsy. On Oct. 12th, 1852, she was married \‘0 Mr. John Irwin, who a few years previously purchased a bush lot in the wilds of Euphrasia, four miles from Thornbury. On this farm our now aged father spent his winters in chopping down timber, while the summer months were Spent in the " lower settlements ” to earn a little money to pay for the farm intended for his’fucure home. Just. after marriage the hardy young couple set out for the back- woods with a. yoke of oxen and Enrag- on. on which they transported all their portable possessions. and. arriv- ing at their home, Lot 28, Con. 1. Euphrasia. they immediately buckled down to housekeeping in a small 103 shanty. and worked together to make their home more comfortable. In- dustry and economy always count. and soon the log shanty was replaced by a hewed log house, one of the fin- est in the township in the early fif- ties. The fields were cleared. the crops were garnered in, the proceeds taken care of, and before long larger and better buildings replaced the or- iginal “make-shifts” of the earlier days. ' .lvery iuemhi-r of the family and hundreds of friends and relatives were looking furw'urd to the 12th of October nun when the Golden Wedd. ; ing day would be celebiated. but the Tfates have decided otherwise. For some months past she seemed to know ihat. the hand of death would interpcse, and when the event. was mixed of in the family she predicted 'ihe futility of such anticipa'iuue. _She has an ardmn member of the .Anglican church, where she Was near- ly always attended the services thn henllh would permit. fl--...â€"â€"- The union resulted in a family of ten children six sons and four daugh- ters. One boy died in infancy, and all the remaining members of the family, with the exception of the write1. are comfortably settled a1- stead. Every member of the family was sober and industrious, and every one of them knew what it meant to earn his own bread and butter. By uniting their energies and carefully husbanding the product of their lab- ms, provision was made for the com- fort of all, and the habits of indusu'v formed in childhood will likely re- main for the remainder of their lives. ‘ The remains were interred in the zThorubury Cunetery on Sunday ai- iteruuun lass. the pan-buttrers bemg ,her five sons and and a son-in-law.

By means of an ingenious instrument invented by Dr. Lombard of New York it is ascertained that a woman’s body is warmer than that of a man by about three-fourths of a degree and some- times as high as one degree, while in no instance has the warmth of a man's body been found to be greater than that of a female. It is also definitely ascertained that children are decidedly warmer than adults, the difference be- ing about 1 degree F., the younger the child the greater the diversity. A dif- ference in the heat of the sides of the body is discovered to be an invariable law. The left side of the head and ex- tending downward to the base of the neck is much hotter than the right side.

THE DURHAM CHRONICLE. THURSDAY. MAY 8. 1902 OBITUABY. ANNE BRETT. THE DRUMS OF THE FORE AND AFT And a little child shall lead them. In the army list they still stand a “The Fore and Fit Princess Hohenzolo lern-Sigmaringen Anspach’e Merther- Tydfilshire Own Royal Loyal Light In- fantry. Regimental District 829A.’ but the army through all its barracks and canteens knows them now as the “Fore and Aft " They may in time do something that shall make their new title honorable. but at present they are bitterly ashamed. and the man who calls them Fore and Aft does so at the risk of the head which is on. his shoulders Two words breathed into the stables of a certain cavalry regiment will bring the men out into the streets with belts and mops and bad language. but a whis- per of Fore and Aft will bring out this regiment with rifles. Their one excuse is that .they came again and did their best to finish the job in style. But for a time all their world knows that they were openly beaten. whipped. dumb cowed. shaking and afraid. The men know it; their oflicers know it; the Horse Guards know it. and when the next war comes the enemy will know it also. There are two or three regiments of the line that have a black mark against their names which they will then wipe out. and it will be excessively inconvenient for the troops upon whom they do their wiping. The courage of the British soldier is omcially supposed to be above proof. and. as a general rule. it is so. The exceptions are decently shoveled out of eight. only to be referred to in the freshet of unguarded talk that occa- sionally swamps a mess table at mid~ night. Then one hears strange and hor- rible stories of men not following their oficers. of orders being given by those who had no right to give them. and of disgrace that, but for the standing luck of the British army. might have ended in brilliant disaster. These are un- pleasant stories to listen to. and the messes tell them under their breath sit- ting by the big wood fires. and the young ofiicer bows his head and thinks to him- self. please God. his men shall never be- have unhandily. The British soldier is not altogether to be blamed for occasional lapses. but this verdict he should not know A moderately intelligent general will waste six months in mastering the craft of the particular war that he may be waging, a colonel may utterly misun- derstand the capacity of his regiment for three months after it has taken the field. and even a company cox. nander may err and be deceived as to tune tem- per and temperament of his own hand- ful. wherefore the soldier. and the sol- dier of today more particularly. should not be blamed for falling back. He should be shot or hanged afterwardâ€" pour encourager les entreeâ€"but he should not be vilified in newspapers. for that is want of tact and waste of space He has. let us say. been in the service of the empress for perhaps four years He will leave in another two years He has no inherited morals. and four years are not sufficient to drive toughness in- to his fiber. or to teach him how holy a thing is his regiment. He wants to drink. he wants to enjoy himselfâ€"in India he wants to save moneyâ€"and he does not in the least like getting hurt. He has received just sufficient education to make him understand half the pur- port of‘ the orders he receives and to speculate on the nature of clean. incised and shattering wounds Thus. if he is told to deploy under fire preparatory to an attack. he knows that he runs a very great risk of being killed while he is deploying. and suspects that he is be- ing thrown away to gain ten minutes time. He may either deploy with des- perate swiftness. or he may shuffle or bunch or break, according to the disc-i- pline under which he has lain for four years J Armed with imperfect knowledge. cursed with therudim'ents of an imagi- nation. hampered by the intense selfish- ness of the lower classes and unsup- ported by any regimental associations. this young man is suddenly introduced to an enemy who in eastern lands is alo ways ugly. generally tall and hairy and frequently noisy If he looks to the right and the left and sees old soldiers â€"men of 12 years' service. who. he knows. know what they are aboutâ€" taking a charge. rush or demonstration without embarrassment. he is consoled and applies his shoulder to the butt _of his rifle with a stout heart. His peace is the greater if he hears a senior. who has taught him his soldiering and bro- ken his head on occasion. whispering “They'll shout and carry on like this for five minutes Then they’ll rush. in. and then we’ve got 'em by the short hairsl" But. on the other hand. if he sees only men of his own term of service turning white and playing with their triggers and saying. “What the hell's up now?“ while the company com- manders are sweating into their sword hilts and shouting. “Front rank. fix bayonetsl Steady thereâ€"steady! Sight for 800+no. for 500! Lie down. all! Steady! Front rank. kneel!" and so forth, he becomes unhappy and grows acutely miserable when he hears a com- rade turn over with the rattle of fire irons falling into the fender and the grunt of a poleaxed 0: If he can be moved about a little and allowed to watch the efiect of his own fire on the enemy, he feels merrier and may be then worked up to the blind passion of fighting. which is. contrary to general belief. controlled by a chilly devil and shakes men like me.
