Laid to rest on Friday The last rites were said over all that was mortal of Mrs Andrew Scott on Friday last from her late home. In the absence of deceased‘s pastor, Rev. J. E. Peters, Rev. W. H. Smith uf Knox, spoke comforting words to the sorrowing daughter and relatives and the "falling asleep" of one, who in waking hours, had been a true follower of her Master, was a beauâ€" tiful sentiment to retain in one‘s memory. The pall bearers were tried and true friends, viz : Thos. Ritchie, W.R. Watson, Wm. Nichol, JohnMeâ€" Girr, Dr. Wolfe, Wm. Vollett.= A nephew of deceased lady, Mr O.

Game The first league hockey game ot the season last Thursddy night in Paisley, resulted in victory for the home team over Durham by 4 to 3. It was a hard game to lose, especiâ€" ally when two of the Paisley goals were accidentally scored by Durham sticks. The night and roads were fine and consequently &bout three dozen fans motored over with the team, to witness the first meet ever of these two towns on the ice. Paisley has;.a real team, already in good: condition and . are probably as classy opponents as Durham will en counter in league games this seasâ€" on. Last week they trimmed Owen Sound Juniors 4â€"1 on Owen Sound ice . They work well together and have an outstanding defence in Mcâ€" Arthur and G. Grant. . The latter latter played with Weston last year and is as smooth a performer as any in these parts. On the whole, Durâ€" ham, however, had a slight margin on the play and Paisley can thank J. McArthur, their 18 year old goalie, that they were not overwhelmed. With Elvidge of Durham, he was the star of the night, as he stopped ‘em speedy and slow, high and low from all angles. Durham had three shots on net to Paisley‘s one, and Irving Elvidge, the local right winger, pepâ€" pered most of them dead on the nets. He scored the first 1 min. atâ€" ‘ter play opened on a long shot from near centre, which the‘goalie did not see and the last just before time, when he eluded the defence and fooled McArthur at close quarters. Bill Wilson, a Junior, made good in his" first game in Senior ranks in place of Schutz and is a comer while the rest of the team also went well against their strongest rivals. Both teams played cleanly, the period scores being 1â€"1, 2â€"2, 4â€"3. Johnâ€" ston of Palmerston refereed. Durham : goalâ€"E. MceDonald : deâ€" fenceâ€"A. Clements, W. Wilson ; cenâ€" treâ€"C.

Durham Council for 1927 is surely well assorted as to occupations, there being no "two of â€"a kind" and are as follows : lumber merchant, underâ€" taker, hardware merchant, carpenter, baker, garageman, cattle _ drover. The churches represented this year on the council board are only two : three Baptist and five United church. Durham will be right into the building this year with a new Po® Office and High School addition. Now if enly @n appropriation would come along from some benefactor for a new Town Hall.

Forty six years ago he was wedded to Susâ€" an Adlam, also of Bentinck, and who survives with four children, to mourn the logg of one who "was true to the kindred points of heaven and home."

The son Will is expected home from Oregon on Friday. â€" The Review extends sympathy to the mourners. f HOME OF OVER 50 YEARS NOW STANDING BROKEN UP The removal of a worthy family from any town at any time is a reâ€" grettable occurrence but when the home has been broken up through the intervention of Death, and a name .that has been synonymous with honor and respect for over 50 years, has passed out of the town‘s civic life, the loss is more than momentary. Such a loss came to Durham this week when the C. L. Grant homeâ€" stead on Queen Street, is being takâ€" en over by W. R. Alder, Div. Roaa Supt. of the Good Roads Departâ€" ment for this district. While re taining,, the property, the Misses Grant have leased the home to the above gentleman indefinitely, feeling that in doing so, it will be for the general welfare of the property. The Misses Grant left this Monday to return again to .teaching duties in Toronto, while their sister, Mrs. Ralph Hayes (Kathleen) who has occupied the homeall fall, alsoleaves this week to join her Jhusband in Amory, Mississippt, U. S., where he has a successful chiropractic pracâ€" ~Thus as. we haversaid, a link with the past hasâ€"been broken in this new order of things and to the oldo generation more especially, is this link regrettable. Dr. J. F.
