Our boys pronounce the Walkerton’s to be the finest bunch of fellows in the country, and are loud in their praise of the treatment afforded them. We haven’t been able to obtain the official score, but Durham “licked,” anyway. MR. DUNCAN MCLEAN was defeated in the last election for County Com- missioner, but he hasn’t taken it to heart very much. Whether he thought he was doing something des- perate or not We don’t know, but at any rate he has captured a good, cheery wife in the person of Miss Me- Arthur. She’s a Baptist and “spokes” the Gaelic, so that will suit Duncan all right. . WE congratulate Dan McDonald who had the courage to enter the band of benedicts. On Wednesday evening of last week in Dr. J amieson's parlor he took the hand of Miss Flora. Mac.“ Kenzie and the nuptial knot was well and truly tied by their pastor, Mr. Newton. The whole affair was done quietly, few indeed suspecting that Dan was in love or that the lively young lady of his choice would fix her fancies on a flckle man. They’re mar- ried now, however, and we take much pleasure in tendering our heartiest congratulations. WE regret to announce the death of Mr. Robert MacFarlane. For some few weeds he has been ailing but no immediate danger was anticipated, though his troubles were of a some- what complicated nature. The deceas- ed was a native of Paisley, Scotland. where he was born, we imagine, over seventy years ago. \Vhen about ten years of age he came to this country, and spent his boyhood, and early manhood days, in the vicinity of Brantford and Stratford. About 1863 he came to this town and engaged tor some time with A. A. Cochrane, who were then carrying on a manufactur- ing business. Subsequently, the de- jceased started up town in the wagon making business, which he carried on successfully till some thirteen or four- teen years ago. He was predeceased by his wife just nine years and three days. There remain four sons, George of Glencoe, David, of Caledon, Robt., of this town, and Archie, of Brussels; also two daughters, Mrs. J. P. Hunter and Mrs. A. H. Jackson. Mr. MacFar- lane is a member of the Masonic body here, being one of the charter members ‘ when the Lodge was first formed. He was a consistent member of the Pres- byterian church, and in politics he always upheld Liberal principles. He served several terms as a member of the town council, and as an admin- istrator of public aflairs be was exceedingly careful of the exercise of his powers.
