Tom Allan is visiting for a. week or ‘so with his mother. He came f1om . the Queen city on Thursday night. Our teacher, Miss Edith Allan has had an attack of La. Grippe and the school has been closed for a. week. At time of writing she is getting better and will be able to take her school agazn. Arthur McCrie came home from i Stratford hospital on \Vednesday. He is a little weak yet but is gettinv along as well as he could be expected. \Ve hope that he may continue to gain I Itrength and will soon be as well as ! ever. 7 Our old neighbor, Mr. \V m. Smith is at present sick in Durham. As he had no oneto look after him in his home the Dr. took him to town so that he could be cared for. We hOpe that he may soon be well and able to return to V'ax-ney again. Mrs. John Bogle has also been sick and under the Dr’s. care. Our wish for her is that she may soon be in her usual health again. The funeral of Miss Edith Allan was very largely attended from this neigh- borhood. We extend to Mr. Allan and family the sincere and heartfelt sympathy of this neighborhood in.this very sad bereavement and would com- mend them to One who alone can comfort in such times of trouble. There was another dance in our neighborhood on Thursday night. As the roads were not very good. the sleigh that brought the load gave out and they had to borrow a pair of bob sleighs to get home with. When the driver was returning with the sleigh in the morning we suppose he went to the land of Nod as Alf McCabe found the team stuck in a snow bank near the Orange Hall and the man fast asleep in the bottom of the sleigh. Dancing must be hard work. Miss Lizzie Pettigrew, and Wm. Morrison J r., left this Tuesday morn- ing for the great north west. We wish them both afisafe journey and success in that great couutry. Florence Clark is sick in bed this Tuesday as we write, but we hope that it will not be of long duration and that she will soon be Well again.
