I Shortly over six months after the :death of her husband, Mrs. John Hulls was called to higher service, in her 76th year. Since the death of ‘Mr. Mills in January, his devoted Hire-partner had gone down rapidly "in health and was taken to home ot lher sister in town, Mrs. Donald Mc- VArthur. where she received every acare and attention. The end came on .Saturday morning, the patient lying lin a comatose state the past few days. The qualities that stood out in the life of Mrs Mills, were kindness and consideration for others. She was in- tensely loyal to her friends, who feel in her passing, a missing link that cannot be easily replaced. She was a member for many years ot Dornoch Presbyterian church, and later ot Durham Presbyterian church. In the absence ot her pastor, Rev. J. T. Priest had charge of the service at house and at Latona cemetery. She was borne to her final rest by eight nephews, John, James, Archie and Kairney Aitchison of Lucknow; Gord. on Loutts. Conn; Jame: Crutehley, Stewart McArthur, Lorne McNally. Relatives present trom a distance were Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Coutts of Conn; the four Aitchison brothers. also Mrs. Arch'e Aitchison. Lucknow Miss Wadsworth and Mrs, D. Lynn of Toronto. Mrs. Mills was one or a large fam- ily of sons and daughters of the late Hector and Mrs Stewart, of 2nd con., Bentinck. She was married in 1892 to John Mills, a progressive farmer of Sullivan township, and their married life proved a congenial and happy one. In 1922 they decided to take things eatuer and moved to Durham, where has been their home to the time ot death. Three sisters. and two brothers. are bereaved by her death: Annie, Mrs. D. McArthur, of Durham: Kate, Mrs. Chas. Flick, of Toledo. Ohio; Sarah, Mrs McKinnon, Cumberland, B.C.; Donald, and Mack Stewart, Deepdale, Manitoba.

The palt bearers were two rephews trom Tor- onto, Russel and Gordon Gun, Dr. E. Lauder, Toronto; A. W, H. Lauder, J. J. Smith, J. A. Graham. The remains were brought on Mon- day to the Gun homestead in Upper Town, where Mr. Gun’s ulster. Mrs Gilbert McKechnie resides. The tim. eral was held Tuesday to Durham cemetery. Mrs. Gun was well-known and high- ly regarded in Du'hnm where she lived from 1896, (when she came as a bride) to 1914, when with Mr. Gun and daughter, the) removed to Ham- ilton. During her years in Durham. she proved herself invaluable in her husband's drug business, as well be- ing prominent in church work. When in Hamilton she was also a real bus- iness partner to her husband, owing to lt'g failing eyesight. The last few year", with daughter Gladys, they have resided in Toronto. MRS. JAMES R.

Tuesday evening of this week, South Grey Agricultural Society, stag- ed a successful sot?1al evening at An- drew Lindsay's 2nd con.,Glenelg. The event was original‘v planned for Fri- day evening last, but the night being wet, it was deemed wise to shift the event forward. It proved a good move and the Agr'l Society benefitted tintur cially as a result. Jitney dancing was enjoyed, music being provided by the Sharp and Lawrenre orchestras. For those who were not interested in the dance, cards were played. At this pastime, Mrs Robert Bell and Lorne Allan were the pti're winners, receiv- ing respectfully a rose bowl and deck of playing cards, Mr. Joe. Crutchley, the Society's president, presided over the evening and the Maple Leaf or- chestra. entertained to several tine selections. The headlight of the even- ing was the drawing of the lucky tick- et prizes for a cedar chest and two baskets of grocerier». Little Anna Mary Lindsay. daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A.

The treasurer's report was read and a motion was made and car- ried to pay $25 and the year's ex- penses to the Men's club. In thedroett seat with the ex-Mayor was daughter Patsy. while occupying the rear, was Mrs. Kreu and tour year-old son Kenneth. Kenneth had“ paper bag he wanted to put out the car window and mistaking the window twist tor the doorlotk. the door open. ed i’or him. Before any of the occu- pants could realize what had happen- ed, Master Kenneth was out of the car on the pavement. In an effort to draw the door closed again, the force ot the wind against the door, made it impossible tor the little lad to close it, and it pulled him out. There were two fortunate sides to the question; one was they were travel- l’ng at a slow speed and the other, there was no cars immediately be- hind, though the trach had been very heavy previously. Kenneth sut- tered some nasty head sashes in the fall on to the pavement, and as well some bad bruises, which necessitated clamps being put in the head. Over night was spent in Sundridge and the party returned to Durham next day, sorry for the interruption to their holiday, but thankful there was no fatal termination. LADIE& BOWLING CLUB Ex-Mayor and Mrs. Hurry Kress, with two children, Pony and Ken- neth, left Saturday, on a. motor trip to points in Northern Ontario, but re- turned the ttrtrt of week, getting as far only as Sundridge.
