Bar- ber, of Barber’s ‘Conners, a short distance south of the town, and when turning in at the gate, man- aged. in some way, to snap off a front «axle of his buggy. Though there was lnm further accident, there might have been. and as it is am in wind that blows no man good, we suppose the blacksmith who got the job of fixing the 'bug- gy nap again, can’t 'see anything seriously amiss in the affair.

The Irehtives wish us to express their thanks "so iriends who ministered to their require- ments during the hours of trouble. Mr. Edge had had several more or less severe attacks of illness during the las‘: few months, the immediate cause 'of death beim'g an acute attack of pleurisy, following a cold. Early on the morning of the 24th of November, there passed peace- fully away, Mr. Robt. Edge, of Edge Hill. The funeral, which took place on the 26th to Durham cemeâ€" tery, was very largely la‘ttemd'ed, shmvimg the thigh esteem in which deceased was held. Dr. Farquhar- som, assisted by Rev. Mr. Hartley, conducted a brief service a“: the home, 'alpd agaln_'at_' he grave. We are ret to chronicle the death of Mr. .m. Reay, who died here on Thursday last .at :the age of 27 years, 16 days. The deceased was am industrious .young man, who, by careful management and a strict attention ‘to business, pro- vided a home af‘O-‘l‘ his mother, who depended to a large degree, on him for support. Iln (addition no the home provided. we understand he leaves some money to his cred- it, all of which goes to show the true character of a young man, whose position in the world was not the most .ftavorable. Besides his widowed mother, he leaves two brothers and .five sisters. The brothers are Thomas, of Bentinck, and John, of Toronto. The sisters are Martha, (Mrs. Wm.
