I JOHN HEWITT He was honored by his fellow citizens as few men have been honored, by being elected four times as Mayor, without ever having sat in couni, the two last years: by acclamation. To the very best of his ability he gave close attention to its duties and his record was certainly a worthy one. A disastrous flre some six or seven years ago crippled him balms by-a de- fectwe safe halos: all his ksandac: counts. He struggled on however bravely but was never the same “Billy Black" as of yore. He wasa member of the I. o. F. and of the Sons of Fcotland societies and his family will profit by his fore. 1h night. He was a member of the Pres byterian church here. In volitirs he was never pronounced though inclining to the Liberal side. Mr Black came to Durham from Wing- ham, over 21 years an: and established a hardware store He was of a most genial disposition and his business grew rapidly, till it was the leading store of its kind in the district. In addition to h s business interests, he was a reat admirer and a good judge of 'itfu,rse/', and his enthus- iasm along this line: led him to estah ish monthly horse fairs in Durham. which undoubtedly were rhe means of bringing buyers and sellers together to the Man. cial advantage of this community He was frequently called on to be a judgdof horses and racing at diV.ct fairs and his advice on anything pertaining to horses was eagerly sought. In March 1914, the "Hardware and Metal" Journal, gave a lengthy and ap- preciative sketch of the deceased. From it we learn that he Was" engaged in news- paper work in early lire. first on the Lon- don Advertiser (in which city he was born! then on tit, Thomas Journal, London Free Press and tour years on the Montreal Star. However. hardware and horses were his hobby, yet his active spirit and influence was felt along many lines, the Poultry Association for instance of whlch he was President. He took a great inter- est for some years in Ben Nevis Camp. and was Chief for several terms at the time of its greatest activity. Interment took place to-day to Dur. ham cemetery. Rev..

Seldom, if ever has the Allan Park community, been more deeply moved than it has been this week by the death of Miss Edna Brigham. only daughter of Mr and Mrs Robt Brigham at the age oi 18 years, 6 mos While the community feels keenly the loss of tNs bright young spirit. the loss must be to the home a very deep bereavement. Deceased was clever. public spirited. and ambitious to serve. In April last she went into training for a nurse at Stratford Hospital, and was making good program She was home well, happy and strong. for two wceksin September and returned to her work no doubt in buoyant hope. She was attack- ed by the influenza which developed into pneumouia about two weeks ago. As things looked serious Mr Brigham rushed to her bedside on 2Sth October and never left her till she died on 4th of November. The mother and Wm. and Mrs Brigham also went down. and all that parental love ard medical skill could do, was done. The last named came haste on Wednes- day of last week, feeling sure-death was imminent, but she rallied «me what and hope revived only to fade later as the dis- ease progressed.

MISS EDNA BRIGIIAM On Monday last. this v,ell-known Dur- ham citizen passed over to the majority in his 64th year. Up to about four years ago he was one of our most active' husi. ness men, but failing health induced by paralysis, undermined his constitution, and physically and mentally for some years he went steadily downward and has passed away at the home of his daughter, Mrs Wm.
