_ {Our own correspondent.) Again our hilltop is being visited " by the old Storm King and he is giv- us everything in the way of variety on his card. To-ilay the roads are again blocked and prospects for op- ening; are very vague as it is rather a useless. pastime. with the terrible winds howling around our village. This («immunity was deeply stirm red on hearing 01' the death of their old friend. the. late Dr. Hutton. of Dtirham who. during the earlier years «if his practice. was a Very useful and influential citizen of 0111‘ conunuzxity. "So great was the res- pert for him that many families up till wry recently were likely to send to" the late Dr. when their homes. were visited by illness. He was al- ways a familiar figure at our gather-g mge and was a never-failing visitor!l and friend to bereaved families in? nur lncality. The report of his death ram.- w-ry unexvectedly and were it. nut for tho- wry severe weather on Mc'vnday we believe that this com- munity would have been much het- tc-r represented than it was.
