PRICEVILLE & GLENELG (Intended for last week) Time is passing and _ toâ€"morrow morning we will be marching into March. But we are told not to boast of toâ€"morrow for we do not know what a day will bring forth. It is said that if March comes in mild it will end wild, so there is no use relying on these old sayings of our forefathers of centuries ago. But we are not going to discuss the weather. We asked an old veteran years ago what kind of weather we were going to have durâ€" ing the month of March. "Well," he said, "I am not weatherwise, I am otherwise." So we must admit that we are all otherwise. Even Mr Bowâ€" es in his weather predictions, is makâ€" ing a lot of mistakes. So we will leave the weather to Him, who is the Author of Summer and Winter and all kinds of weather. We were reading of the experiences of the late Peter Smith of Dornoch on entering the woods where Dornoch now stands. In the vicinity of Dornâ€" och there were quite a number. of Smith families in the early history of the place. _ Some of their descendâ€" ants are the Rev. Dr Fraser Smith, Rev. Jas. Skene, whose life partner‘s death we notice in a recent issue of the Review, being a sister of the late Wm Wright, near Ceylon, who was a faithful elder in the old kirk, Priceâ€" vile, for a number of years. In conversation with Mr_ Skene,, who ran for Reeve of Glenelg against the late Chas. Moffat Sr. of Edge Hill, in the early part of the 90‘s, and was defeated by 1 vote, Mr Skene said it was the best thing that ever happenâ€" ed him for if he was successful he would try and try again till he was defeated, and instead of using his talâ€" ents in preaching the gospel, he would have been using them in proâ€" moting municipal matters. Mr Skene‘s mother was a Smith also. In the winter of 1856 the snow was deep and no thaw all winter, and the wheels in Durham Mills could hardly turn for want of power and onâ€" ly a bag could be given to all comers, was the time to realize that we were not living in the tropical zone,. The patrons had to wait a couple of days before they could even get a bag. The late Jno. McLachlan who ownâ€" ed the first span of horses west of Priceville, (John Ban) loaded his old fashioned sleigh and drove to Owen Sound Mills, was away two days but got his supply of flour for most of the summer. John Ban was one of the best neighbors that could be found, and probably he took a bag or two exâ€" tra for some of the near neighbors. This leads us to give another sketch of some of the residents of Glenelg, who in a different manner, undertook to tramp the Garafraxa Roads to O. Sound 75 years ago : The custom then was for some who had no regard for the Lord‘s Day, to assemble at a certain families‘ residâ€" ence where they were not wanted. However they had to be entertained, by providing them with such food as was available at the time. Gosslp was the chief conversation. On a certain occasion a boy of some 9 years old, lost a 25¢ cap. Some of the swiftâ€" tongued visitors said it was Mr So and So‘s son who took it. So it went from tongue to tongue till it came to the accused boy‘s father and although the boy‘s mother was assuring him that none of her family accused his son, that would not do, ard he had to find the fountain head. _ Although the lady who accused him apologized, that would not do so he entéred the case and some 12 or 13 were on the witness tand before the late Mr. Creasor. The old father, whose boy was accused, lost the case and came home wiser than going. Aithough taxed a few hundred dolâ€" lars at the same time, another, old couple entered a case against a neighâ€" bor woman who was accusing their daughter of stealing hay over the fence. No case could be made out of this and the old couple were taxed $300 and had to sell their oxen and cows to pay part of the law suit. No preacher yet chosen in the Presâ€" byterian church, Priceville. It would be a good act of the Presbytery to introduce the old patronage in Scotâ€" land a century ago and simply send one. There would be no pick or choose from all applying and the one could not say to the other "I am holâ€" than thou", ete. But it is hoped THE DURHAM REVIEW PRICEVILLE â€"¢:ciany | _ On Sunday, the 9th, we had Rev.‘ Mr. Martin of Long Branch. This }wintor has been very unsatisiucmry. ! for having probationers as the bad | roads kept the people from gt'(lim(i | out. Nevertheless, we have had exâ€"| Ecellem men, but we are afraid the | | climate and roads will keep some (:I] | them from ever coming so far north | to take a charge. | ! Mr Delbert Haw and sister, Miss! Maude, have returned home aflur] spending 10 days in the city. They had a good time and returned in spirâ€"| its that are reflected in their smilvs.‘ Its nice to get away from the farm for a few days now and then. that a pastor will soon be chosen in the old fashioned way by the vote of the congregation. e A young minister asked an old reâ€" tired preacher who attended . service in the church in which he was engagâ€" ed, how did he like his sermon ? The aged minister who spemt long years in the service, replied, "Your oraâ€" torical abilities are very good, but contains a lot of wind." â€" The young preacher expected praise from his old friend but was disappointed. _ Many years ago we spent part of an evening with a bereaved family to sympaâ€" thize with them in the loss of wife and mother. Reading and prayers were conducted by a good old highâ€" lander in his native language, the Gaelic. A good old son of Erin, who could understand the language fairly well, said after the service was over, "That was a bully good prayer you made Mr â€"â€"." There was no reply so ministers and others engaged in religious service, do not appreciate flattery. Well, we are a‘very quiet, and I think, a fairly contented people round tbe Park at prosert. We have jusi keard with deey regeet of the death of Mrs William Burnâ€" ett in Durham. The people of Swinâ€" ton Park and vicinity, who have known Mrs Burnett practicaliy all her life, will sympathize kindly with Mr. Burnett and family, in this their great affliction. We enjoyed on Sunday, March 9th, a very good service from Rev. Hugh Cowan of Toronto, especially as some of us remembered him in his school teaching days, about 35 years ago al Dromore, and we renewed old acâ€" quaintances. Mr Cowan made kindly enquiries for the people of Dromore and vicinity, but so few of those he| was most intimate with are now in j the section. Mr W. J. Blak(‘s'on'; taught at Swinton Park at that time| and they spent many happy evenings together. ! Mrs Richard Herd celebrated her 16th birthday on Feb. 29th _ Mr and Mrs. Ed. Herd gave a small birthday party in her honor, when other memâ€" bers of the family and friends near by, were present. And those of the family who are away, remembered their mother in the same way, Those that only have birthdays every 4 years are few and far between. No No. No. No On Monday, March 17th, Wm Mcâ€" Cormack will have a public auction sale of fam stock and implements. Mr Geo. Duncan is the auctioneer, the genial successor to Mr Dugald Mcâ€" Phail, and will wield the hammer. Geordie is doing a good business in his new line, having already 7 sales, and is giving general satisfaction to the public, as well as a good return to his employers. Come and hear him. I@XG@IC ENE NP NC 3@\ P NC NC CHURCH UNION PLAN For many years the Methodist, Conâ€"| gregational and Presbyterian churchâ€" es in Australia have been considering action with a view to the formation of | a "United Church of Australia." If| the union had been consummated, it would have resulted in a church| which would have been an exceedtmz'; ly strong factor in the religious life: of the Commonwealth. The basis! which was finally evolved was acceptâ€"| ed by the Methodists, and after much] discussion, by the Congregationalists.! The really formidahle opposition provâ€". ed to be that of the Presbyterians, alâ€" though it was the Presbyterian Ch. which initiated the whole discussion. The Presbyterian opposition was critiâ€" cal of both the proposed polity and the proposed doctrinal schedule, and another factor in the situation was that the stardards of ordination in the Presbyterian church have been, and to some extent, still are, considerâ€" ably higher from an educational point of view than those enforced by the other negotiating churches. In view of the collapse of organio union, efâ€" forts are being made to revive the idea â€"of interdenominational . coâ€"operâ€" ation, to which all parties are theorâ€" etically committed.
