Milligan here and bore to the Spirit land her eldest and dearly beloved daughter. Genevieve, who had for two years been ill with disy ease of a pulmonary nature. On Monday forenoou an apprOpriate ser- vice was conducted at the house by her pastor. Rev. Ivision Wilson, after which her remains were laid at rest in the Flesherton cemetery. Deceased. who was 18 years of age, was a bright young christian woman and bore her illness with much pa- tience and resignation. Her end was .peace. but her early removal is a {great trial to her sorrowing mother, :who has the sympathy of many if friends in her bereavement. On Thursday last. the remains of Mrs. Henry Fenwick, who eXpired suddenly with heart failure at her home at Eugenia on Tuesday evening, were followed by a very large funeral cortege and interred in the public cemetery here on Thursday.

A fine big black hear was sighted one evening taking his bath but unfortunately the firearms at hand were not suflicient to despatch him. Later, one of the party, in a thicket, came on their camp dog so suddenly that he thought he had lit on bruin sure. and the sensation pro- ‘ duced during the recovery of senses is said to have been that of the hair assuming the perpendicular. Anoth- ier of the party. who is said to have Mr. Chas. Stafiord. of the 4th line, has successfully raised a big barn with block and tackle. The building is 60x70 and is sec on a fine stone basement.

The prank was enjoyed by all. On Monday evening a. horse belong- ing to Mr. A. Thistlewaite made a lively run down front street with a stoneboat at its heels. 2. was inter- estedly watched in its escapade, but fortunately no one was hurt nor much damage done.

A. was played in Hanover last Friday between the Owen Sound and Durham teams. The game was an- nounced to start at 3:30, but long before that hour conveyances of all kinds could be seen gornp; towards the centre of attractien. Everything in Durham in the shape of a convey- ance was brought into service. and we’ll venture'to say that never before in one day was such an assortment seen to leave town. Arrangements with the liveries had been made days before the time. Another gang of young fellows. rather than be disap- pointed. got a conveyance to come after them from Hanover. and the remainder of the pleasure seeking crowd felt satisfied with anything from a donkey wheelbarrow to a stoneboat and a three-year-old steer. Some went on wheels and it is not at all improbable that some of them walked. At all events. the Durham crowd was a big one. and in all prob- ability as disappointed as it was big. and as disgusted as it was disap‘ pointed, when they ,'saw the unfair way they were treat'ed by the Owen Sounders. For the first quarter our boys (lid decidedly the best work keeping the ball during the whole in dangerous: proximity to the Owen Sound goal.; The opponents had a strong' defence, 1 however, and only one goal was '1 scored. In the next quarter the; contest was more equal. but the op-‘E posing team got two goals, owing' largely to the weight of their men. which. by the way. was Owen Sound’s best outfit, again pitted against our seconds. Though the ball played mostly around the Owen Sound flags their strong defence prevented an- other score being made by the Dur- ham boys. At the end of the third quarter the game stood three to one in favor of Owen Sound. and the big cowardice by bunching themselves all on the defensive. and disgusting the spectators for a time by a smart game of catchwork. They were ahead then and they felt their only safety lay in blocking up the Durham goal and keeping our boys from win- ning out. It was a cowardly piece of work and a plan that few teams would condescend to adopt The game has been protested and the Durham boys are ready any day for the Owen Sounders of their own series on neutral'ground. _/ _I HE UNDERSIGNED WILL BE- ceive appliqationg till 5 p. 3132‘ 81pm- '1'__ééiva applications till 5 p. m..
