It simply shows their determination to punish the so-called Liberals for a breach of faith in the administration of public aflairs, and give both parties a warn. ing to do the right thing for the country, or bear the defeat inevitably waiting them. This is simply as it should be. and no man who attaches himself like a blood-sucker to any par- ticular party, and yields a willing obedience to that party. whether right or wrong, deserves for a single moment to enjoy the confidence of the electorate.

In religion Mr. Adlam was a de- voted member of the English Church and in politics he was conservative. For over a quarter of a century he has been a member of the School Board in his own section. He also served four or five years as a mem- ber of the Bentinck Council. The funeral takes place on Sunday next to the Durham Cemetery and will be conducted by the Orange Organiza- tion, of which Mr. Adlam has long been a devoted member. The mem- bers of the family are all expected to be present at the funeral on Sunday. l A Well known and respicted tesi- dent of Beniinck in the poison of lbeoweAilam «lied in town at the {home of his dau ghter, Mrs. \[arshall Eon Wednesday morning.

The de- {ceased had trouble with one of his Ifeet and about a month ago it was gdecided necessarv to amputate one of his toes to prevent a spread of the Ildisease, which was apparently of a gangrenous nature. This was n01 lsuificient however, as there was a subsequent develotiment. The early ipart of the week showed signs of blood poisoning. and amputation of lthe leg above the knee was decided the only chance of saving life. Thel operation was performed Tuesday by Drs. Gun. Jamieson and \Iacdonald and on Wednesday morning' the sufiering man was relieved of his trouble by death. The familiar, respected and well- known subject of this short obituary was born on Wellington Square nearly seventy one years ago, in the vear 1834. When about fourteen years of age he moved to this town, then a wilderness. In 1849 in com- pany with his parents he settled on lot 41. con. ‘2, N. D. R. In 1854 he was married to Martha Britton, who with five sons and four daughters are now mourning the loss of a kind husband and afiectionate father. The sons are Robert. of Cheboygan, Michigan; George, of Montana; David John and William,of Bentinck. The daughters are Mrs. John Bacchus, Mrs. William Brown, Mrs. Henry Rosy and Mrs. Robt. Marshall, all residing in town and vicinity. Shortly: after marriage Mr. and Mrs. Adlam moved to lot ‘25. con. 4. Bentinck, and with industry and thrift bowed out for themselves a comfortable home. A few weeks ago the deceased gentleman moved to the home of his daughter. Mrs. Marshall in town. for convenience in securing medical treatment. We omitted to mention that. the new brmk addition to Mr John Bell’s house is now finishpd‘ and an extra improvement is a. fine belfry placed on the roof.

The municipal elections were held on Monday last, and although there were twelve candidates in the field for councillors, there was very little ex- citement. As we previously pointed out, the council elected by accla-ma- tion at the regular time, failed to make their Declaration of Qualification and a new election had to be held. The new board is made up of good material, and we hope to have wise municipal legislation in the year 1905.

Marshall when her daughter Miss Mary was united in bonds of wedlock to Mr. Arthur McDonald, son of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh McDonald of this town. The nuptial knot was tied by the Rev. Mr Farqu- harson at 5 o’clock in the evening in the presence of over one hundred and fifty invited guest. The bride looked her best in a dress of white cashmere trimmed with white silk applique. She was assist- ed by the Winsome Miss Myrtle Mc- Donald (sister of the groom) who was neatly attired in white cashmere, trimmed with blue bows The nighc was far spent in dancing and other amusements before the happv throng betook themselves to their several homes The stalwart groom was the pic- ture of composure and showed no signs of fear. In fact he performed his part in exquisite taste, and with as much precision [as if he had re- ceived aspecial course of training. Mr. Norman Turner acted as best man and acquitted him excellentlv.
