Two men from Kitchener motoring north that evening encountered tue wrecked roadster just north of Rocâ€" ky bridge and being acquainted with Dr. Rutherford, recognized it as i.is car. They went on a few steps to Jas. Miller‘s home and phoned Dr. Rutherford of the mishap, whereupon Constables Carson and McCaffery of Owen Sound, drove down and iGentiâ€" fied the car. Some little excitement was created around town late Saturday evering, when a new Pontiac roadster was reported }vroclged on the posts north of Rocky ‘Siugeen bridge, and one Clayton ‘McCrae of Owen Sound, later found @&sleep in Burns Churca, Rocky Saugeen, having forced the door open. _ ~~ Meanwhile Constable H. Allen and others from Durham and nearby had reached the scene of the smash, but no driver could be found. The car must have been driven at termic speed, and not knowing of, or not zeâ€" ing able to negotiate the turn in the road unto the bridge, it had collided into the posts and wire railing at the west side, smashed two or turce of the posts off, loosened others and broke the strong wire. Fortunate it was for the driver, and his mate, i( any, that the fence was there, or the car and occupants woulid have rusaâ€" ed down the bank into the Rocky Saugeen and a watery grave.

Death in Bentinck of ;‘Nothing but the Truth‘ Mrs. Edward Boyce Delighted Large Audience Death was due to paralysis from| which she had suffered for seme: weeks and during her illness she bore her sufferings with resignation and Christian fortitude and as her pastor stated, the suffering was inâ€" deed great when she did not welcome her friends with a smile. It is however in the home and by the bereaved husband and family, that her loss will be most keenly felt particularly coming at a time when n the course of nature they might have reasonably expected to spend togeinâ€" er many happy years. Tho‘ every effort was made tha: loving hearts and medical skill conld devise, she tndu:%i grew weaker and finally was called home on May 14 The surviving brothers and sisters are (Jean) Mrs Frank Boyle, Lytle ton, Sask ; (Ellen) Mrs Jno Clark, and (Elsie) Mrs Jas McLarty and George, all of Vancouver ; Walter, Thos. and Mark, of Colgate, Sask. and Rev. R. B. of Harriston. One brother Wim. died some years a¢o, and another brother Mark, in young manhood. A greatsorrow entered the home of Mr Edward Boyce, 9th con, Bentinck on Saturday last, when the beloved wife and mother was called away from earthly scenes. In the neighborhood and among a host of friends the loss of Mrs Boyce is keenly felt for her bright, cheerâ€" ful disposition and her unfaltes kinduess and helpfuiness won for her the love of all those with whom she came in contact. Their union was blessed with a family â€" of five, viz : Edgar, on the home farm ; Walter in Hamilton ; Misses Elsie and Blanche at htme and Miss Ellen attending high school in Hanover. Deceased, whose maiden name was Mary Ledingham, was a daughter of tie late Mr and Mrs Wim Ledingham and her early life wes spent on lot 52, con 13, Bentinck, the farm now occuâ€" pied by Fred Haug. On June 7, 1899, she was united in marriage to Edâ€" ward Boyce and since that time has esided almost continuously on the Boyce homestead on con 8. The funeral which took place on Monday from the home to the place of interment in Durham â€" cemetery, was attended by a very large numâ€" ber of friends and neighbors, a triDâ€" ute to the place which she held in affection of the community. The service was conducted by her pastor, Rev. Robt. Young, assisted by Rev. H. Crickington. Mr Young took for his text John 21 : 4 "But when the morning was now come, Jesus stood upon the shore" showing that her death is not the end of life, but rather the beginning or a new and better day. Friends from a distance attending the funeral were : Rev. R. B. Ledingâ€" ham of Harriston ; Mr Arch Mc Dougall, Mrs J. McDougall Jr., Misâ€" ses Kate and Lizzie McDougall, all of Hamilton ; Mr and Mrs Alexancer, Mrs S. J. Oliver and Mrs P. Lee, 0. Sound and Mr and Mrs Ferguson, of Mt. Forest.
