TICKETS McFADDEN‘S REXALL DRUC STORE .... 2800 sheets, 18e he Perhaps what appealed most in deceased‘s diversified makeup was his love of ancestry, The history and traditions of the Graham clan were bred into the very fibre of his being. John A. Graham could trace his forebears from _ Scottish covenâ€" ant‘ng days, when the clan split, half of them accepting the Episcopal religion, the other half suffering martyrdom to remain as Scottish Covenanters. While a native of Canaâ€" da, his parents‘ language by day or night was the highland tongue of "Auld Scotia" and the subject of this sketch knew not a word of the English togue when he first started to school at S. S. No. 1 Glenelg. It was this atmosphere that remained with Mr. Graham to the last and he was re gardéd locally as an authority on the Gaelic language. The early Highland home of his father in Oban, had been described so graphically to him at various times that the son had the layout of the neighborhood in his mind‘s eye. We have heard him say he could walk to it. Of recent years he kept up a cortespondence with the present retainers on the early Graham highland homestead, telling them the â€" general _ geographical features of the district. . The reply came back that he was correct in every detail and they marvelled at his knowledge of the locality. his fellowâ€"men, has had a book of memoirs published to his credit. His years of service in the teaching proâ€" fession, as well to the community where in he taught at the time made for him staunch friendships in that section, that grew with the years. His social gifts were on a par with his intellectual gifts and no evening was a failure if John A. Grakam was there. He was equally at home on the platform _ and _ his chairmanship qualities were eagerly sought. As a chairman he had the faculty of putâ€" ting his audience in good humor and bis wealth of incident and anecdote, left pleasant memories wherever he went. Such in a brief manne:, sums up the salient points in the makeâ€"up of our deceased friend. He had _ his faults, â€"who hasn‘t? But it _ was his warm humanity and love for the higher things of this life that we like to honor at this time. H.s wife and family particularhy, have the aâ€" biding satisfaction that few men in Grey County made and retained friendshps as our late friend. . May he Afiter a brief service in the home the funeral services will be held in Durkam _ Baptist Church under Masonic auspices, on Thursday, at 230 p. m., conducted by his pastor, Rev. J. T. Priest. Interment will be made in Durham cemetery, To attempt to chronicle Mr. Graham‘s life, habits and characterâ€" ist‘cs, as it should be done , would view columns could spare. In fact Mr. Graham always retained his membership in Glenelg Centre Bap tist, his old home Church, though he attended Durham Baptist Church since living in town.
