Deceased was an Orangeâ€" man and his brethren in very large numâ€" bers turned out to pay him the last [ honors and he was buried with the usua; rites. The cause of the fire is a mystery, and will probably never be known. Mrs Moore, a neighbor, who was leaving the home about 11 in the evening, remarked she thought she smelt pine burning, but no sign re was evident. The family retired between 11 and 12. and while in their first sound sleep, it is thought the fire gained such headway that they were almost suffocated by smoke before awakâ€" ening. When arouscd it is presumed the : Lyons‘ had secured th> children and found escape cut off by the flames ; they had | probably attempted to get down stairs, | when the burning or weakened stairs gave | way, as the four bodies were found to iget her at the front of where the stairs ] had been. That of Miss Neely was found in another part of the house, who probab. ! ly was seeking a different route of escape. Five Burned to Death in Home near Markdale One of the most distressing fatalities ever in the County, happened about seven miles northâ€"east of Markdale early Saturâ€" day morning, in which five persons lost their lives by fire. About 1 a. m. neighâ€" bors noticed the bhome of Mr Richard Lyons, in flames: many of them were soon on the scene, and tried to arouse the inmates, but to no avail. Whenfirst seen the back part of the frame dweliing was in flames and the front full otf smoke, and with such a headway, despite the efforts of the neighbors, the house was completeâ€" ly destroyed Who can picture the agony of his young wife, (a daughter of Mr W. R. Watson of thetown line) to see her husband and father of her child brought in and life exâ€" tinguished ? It was a trying moment. Death on the battlefield may be as tragic, but there it is always known to be posâ€" sible, but to occur in the safety and seclusion of home life, while offering hosâ€" pitality to a stranger, is one of the myâ€" sterious things in life and painful as mysterious. Deceased was 23 years of age, son of Mr and Mrs Thos Harrison, and giving promise of a useful career. To the wife so sorely bereaved, to his parents, grandâ€" parents and brothers, deepest sympathy is extended in the untimely loss, In the ruins search revealed the charred and burnt bodies of the five inmates, Mr and Mrs Lyons and their only son, seven years old ; Miss Effie Neely of Markdale, a high school girl, who was getting her certificate by working on the farm ; and Aldes McLaughlin Owen Sound. The little lad was living with his aunt Mrs Lyons, while his mother was being treated in a sanitarium in Hamilton for nervous breakdown. _ Mr Lyons is the next older brother of Mr Wes, Lyons of Milverton, formerly of Durham, and the latter came up Saturday to his late brother‘s place. _ One of the most sudden and distressing fatal accidents that has occurred for some time took place on Friday last about the noon hour on the John Lawrence farm, 21 Con., Egremont. The tarm was being worked this year by his grandson Ralph Harrison, he was just sitting down to dinâ€" ner when Mr. Moses Glaser drove in. Ralph went out to assist in unhitching the team, and by some mischance one of the tugs was left unfastened and unnoticed. Ralph removed the bridle from one of the horses which stepped forward a little and ‘ finding the unusal side ‘pull got alarmed and dashed off making for a gateway. The horse attempted to jump, but the tongue of the waggon, now down, ran unâ€" der the bars, and in the melee upset the horse sideways and caught or drove Mr Harrison against a gatepost, killing him| instantly, his neck being broken. The funeral of Mr and Mrs Lyons and the two boys was held Monday afternoon to Harkaway cemetery, Mr and Mrs David Allen of town and Mrand Mrs Geo Hopkins of Glenelg, being in attendance, Miss Neely‘s funeral took place on Tuesâ€" day from her home in Markdale.: An inquest will be held on Saturday next, to further investigate the sad tragedy. If going West try the C. P. R. boats to Fort William thence rail, delightful scenâ€" ery, cool breezes, excellent meals, a nice break in the journey. Particulars from R. Macfarlane, town agent.

Miss Leila Gilchrist of Toronto cousin of the bride, acted as bridesmaid while her brother Mr Neil McKechnie supported the groom. The young couple motored to Mt Forest, thence took the afternoon train to spend their honeymoon in Galt and Toronto, returning Monday evening next. The Review joins their numerous friends in wishing them many happy years of wedded life. SINCLAIRâ€"McCORMICK "Until death do you part." Qncemore have the impressive words been assented to, the contracting parties being Mr Neil Sinclair of Sault Ste Marie and Miss Kate McCormick of Durham. The function took place at the home of the bride, on Wednesday, 12th June, 1918, in the presâ€" ence of a large circle of friends and relaâ€" tives. Promptly at 5 p. m. the groom took his stand under a bower of spirea and myrtle and while the strains of Lohengrin‘s Briâ€" dal Chorus played by Miss Alice Ramage, were pealing forth, the bride entered on the armof her eldest brother ‘*Alex. and took her place by the side of her lover. Rev. Mr. Whaley, the bride‘s pastor, assisted by Rev Mr. McEwen of the Baptist Church, performed the cereâ€" mony and the happy couple, after having listened to the usual charges and assented toâ€"the solemn vows were declarâ€" ed man and wife, _ Miss Margaret Hunâ€" ter rendered "Love‘s Coronation‘" effectâ€" ively while the register was being signed. The congratulations that followed were of the heartiest nature, Following this a magnificent wedding repast was served, in which culinary skill was well shown up. _ A four storey wedâ€" ding cake, the work of Mrs Reid of Torâ€" l onto, a friend of the bride, was admired by all.. At the close of the supper a toast was given by Rev. Mr, Whaley and reâ€" sponded to by Mr. C. Ramage and Rev.| Mr McEwen. â€" On behalf of the groom Mr Whaley replied. ' The bride was becomingly costumed in a sand shade gabardine suit and corn colâ€" or crepe waist with beading. _ Her hat was in keeping with the suit and she carâ€" ried a boquet of Richmond roses _ She also wore the groom‘s gift, that of a pearl peridot necklace. To the organist he presented a gold crescent pin. The remainder of the évening was spent in music and social intercourse and the hours grew large and small again beâ€" fore the happy gathering dispersed. The gifts were unusually handsome and varied. Silver, cut glass, linen and china, ran a close race for superiority, all going to show the esteem and good will the friends of bride and groom hold for them. An outstanding gift was a cabinâ€" et of Community silver from ‘the Police Dept of the Steel Corporation at the Soo of which he is head. The bride‘s brother Mr Hugh McCormick of Pittsburg wired his regrets for his absence but showed his good will by his gift of a $500 check to the bride.
