ON Monday morning last the Editor of this paper received word by Wire that his sister, Miss Annie Irwin of Clarkshurg, who has been ailing for some time, had suddenly taken a turn for the worse, and was not expected to recover. He and daughter Rita left immediately for Clarkshurg, driving across the country. At time of writ- ing we have no particulars and can only hope for the best. On Thursday last an interesting case was tried here before Police Magistrate Telford and Mayor Hunter. The par- ties concerned were from Holstein, the plaintiff being Mrs. Kerr, a widow, who entered suit against A. D. Prior for alleged forgery. The. circumstances leading up to the trial date back to April of 1904. At that time Mrs. Kerr kept boarders. one of whom, a Mr. Trace. left with an unpaid board-hill of $7.00. Prior, whose wife was in Toronto. was also a boarder with the Toronto. was also a hoarder with the. handsmne young widow. for a time. In April last year Mrs. Prior returned to Holstein, and shortly after this Mrs. Kerr went to Toronto where she re- mained till some time in July. It seems from the evidence that Prior claimed some right to transact busi- ness for Mrs. Kerr, and songht to col- leet the $7.4M-hoard hill from Trace. presenting an order for the same claimed to have been written and sign- ed by Mrs. Kerr. Trace paid the amount'of the claim ahout July 6th and supposed it had been handed over to Mrs. Kerr. Subsequently Mrs. Kerr demanded the $7.01) and this led Trace to make enquiry into the matter. and later on an action against Prior who is alleged to have forged the order on Trace was entered by Mrs. Kerr. Though Mrs. Kerr and Mr. PPIOI' had evidently heel: on friendly relations previous to the. time she left for Toron- to the evidence they gave 'as diame- trically opposite as regards the author- ity of Mr. Prior to eollect the money. Mr. Prjor swears she gave him the order, and on the otherhand Mrs. Kerr swears she gave him no authority either by order or by word of mouth. Mr. Dunn of McKay and Dunn, £wt- ed for Mrs. Kerr, and Mr. Murphy of Listowell had charge of the case for Mr. Prior. The defendant was com- mitted to stand his trial in Owen Sound on May next.
