Walkerton Man Got Damages Mr. Harris Rife, who was ditched near the cemetery corner while motor- ing home from the 01g_Boys’ Reunion â€"_â€"U in Mildmay on the night of Tuesday, July 3, and his McLaughlin touring car was wrecked beyond repair, re- ceived a settlement of $600 and costs from the insurance company in which Alfred E. Stone of Stratford, who was responsible for the accident, carried a policy that insured him against any damage that his car might do. Stone. it seems. turned out to pass another car. and rather than hit him head- on. Rife took to the ditch and wrecked his machine. The Walkertonian sued for $800. and the case was to have come up this Thursday before Judge Owens in the County Court, but the Insurance Co. stalled the action by settling on Monday. Campbell Grant acted for Rife in the suit.â€"Walkerton Times. Ask for Clemency A largely signed petition has been forwarded to the Minister of Justice at Ottawa asking for clemency for Frank Mitchell. Huron Township farmer. who is now serving sixty days in jail for assaulting and breaxing fhe nose of William Robertson at a threshing held on the farm of the prisoner‘s father-in-law. The petition th used an old Fore in any way too severe in view of the serious inim'v afilicted on his v1cmn near the house and her son, Culross, who was in the home at the time, rushed out and notified Mr. McCan- neu who was in the barn. The father and son started out to the place where the shooting was going on and in the gloom saw two men piling geese in their car which had come from the north and started back in the same direction. It was too dark for them to by an attack that was certamly un- called for, yet the effort is a human- itarian one based on the plight or his family.â€"Kincardlne Review. “vvvâ€" see the number of the car and Mrs. McCannel kept warning her husband and son not to get too close lest they might be shot too. The geese were at the line fence between the McCannel and Oswald farms. Of the six killed the geese hunters in their haste got away with only four of them. It is about the boldest deed of fowl robbery we ever heard of. The McCanneis have not the slightest idea who the robbers were and made no attempt to follow them. It seems fowl thieves are becoming bolder every year.â€" Chesley Enterprise.

The fewer the docked horses in show rings and the fewer mutilated cared dogs at our dog shows the clear- er the evidences that we are slowly but surely being civilized.â€"Our Dumb A cabbage grown in the garden of Mr. James Burke of town has earned the right for a place in the sun. On Tuesday he left a healthy family of cabbages on one stalk at” the Review- Herald office. We counted eight heads of sound quality and saw where two other heads were attached but broke.

Hallowe’en Hoodlums The deplorable incident at Mountain where a young man was shot and killed. while he, with a group of Hal- lowe’en marauders, was annoying a man whom they had been warned was very quick- -,tempered will, it is hoped, be a severe warning to the brainless young men who every yea1 go about Chesley doing damage to property. There will be more public sympathy with the outraged house- holder who did the shooting than with the young man who paid the penalty for his folly. In that case the Hallowe’en gang had torn away the man’s steps, and [thrown the steps in at his door. Although he nao. 'fired his shot gun twice into the a1: they came back again to still further annoy and molest him, With the con- sequence that one of them was shot to death and another injured. In Chesley, on Hallowe'en night, the gangsters went about damaging pro- perty, tearing of! steps, and doing all sorts of depredations. Next year something must be done to put a stop to this. The citizens are no; gomg to stand being annually molested by foolish young men. Of late years there has not been a single clever stunt done on Hallowe’en night; nothing containing an iota OI fun. It has simply been that a gang has gone around destroying property. For the matter of that they might as well stand in the centre of Main street and throw stones through windows and call it fun. The people are fed up with their stupidity.â€"Chesley Enter- prise. The Municipal Council of the Town- ship of Normanby met in the town- ship hall, Ayton. on Monday. Novem- ber 5, at 10 am.
