We are glad to have the opportunity of publishing the following letter from Mr. Wm. Thomson, of Orillia, one of Canada’s best known lumbermen, which tells what he has seen himself. It reads : My Dear Mr. iagc,â€"- I have much pleasure in enclosing herewith cheque for One Hundred Dollars ($100.00) from the 'I‘udhOpe Carriage Company of Orillia, a donation to the Free Hospital for Consumptives at Gravenhurst. Please acknowledge this to the Tudhope Carriage Company in the usual way. I have written to a number of my friends, to try and get them interested in this good work. I hope to be able to send you further donations. I have written my friends a personal letter. something similar to the following : “ Last week I paid a visit to the Free Hospital for Consump- tives at G ravenhurst. I met some of the management there, and promised to try and interest some of my friends in this work. “ I might say there were 49 patients there last week, all poor ple, most of them without a dollar in the world, and suffering rom the dreadful disease. Consumption. There are many and stories, and I know I have thought a great deal about the work of the institution ever since my visit there. I do believe it is worth of assistance, and we who have health and the necessaries of ' e should encourage this work along. HIS TREASURE. J.

Before returning home. the entire assembly joined heartily in the singing of the old familiar hymn “ God be with you till we meet again.” WEDDING ANNIVERSARY AND PRESENTATION A most enjoyable evening was spent at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. W. . Morrison. 12th con., Egremont, near - Holstein. last Friday evening when a .‘ large number of their friends find relatives met to celebrate the for. ‘ tieth anniversary of their wedding - day. Mr. Morrison having sold his farm is about to take up his residence . in Holstein. and his many friends and neighbors took the opportunity of the anniversary of his wedding day to meet together and show their appreciation of the many kind ser- vices which he and Mrs. Morrison have shown among them. After all the guests had arrived an excellent programme consisting of songs, in- strumental music, recitations and addresses was rendered. Just prev- ious to the singing of the last num- ber on the programme the chairman, Mr. Spence. requested Mr. and Mrs. Morrison to come forward and be seated together. Mr. Wm. Groat then read an address at the close of lwhich Mr. John Hamilton. Sr.. pre- sented Mr. Morrison with a lfimdsome gold headed cane. and Mrs. Spence presented Mrs. Morrison with a beautiful gold lined silver cake bas~ ket both articles having the names of Mr. and Mrs Morrison engraved upon them. Mr. Morrison although completely taken bv surprise in a few appropriate remarks. thanked the company heartily on behalf of himw self and Mrs. Morrison for their very? handsome gifts. nor. so much for their intrinsic value as for the kindly feel» ings which had prompted the gifts. both Mrs. Morrison and himself would ever fondly cherish the mem- ory of the many years they had lived among them as friends and neigh- bors. At the close of Mr. Morrison’s remarks refreshments were provided and after full justice had been done to the many excellent dishes the company joined in singing that grand old song, “ Auld Lang Syne.” after which the company broke up in “ the wee sma’ oo’rs ayont the twal.” THE ADDRESS.
