af t’ 4 & § ° & + % Kor such a stormy day. Wrs. Augus Gillies. A native of Rosshire, Scotland, died on Monday, the 8th inst. at the residâ€" ence ol ber sonâ€"in law, Mr. Joseyh Hooper, Glenelg, where tor some years .she has had the care of a loving darghter, _ She was the mos! er of Mrs. Jno. MeKelyie, in town, in whose home many of the 37 years, which have elapsed since the ‘death of her husband, were spent. In his lifetime she resided near Latona, and her death recalls him whom many still reâ€" memle a lo l missionary and colâ€" porteur who did a good work at a time which required resolution and strength. _ Hi. beoks are yet to be found in some houses in the two townâ€" ships and many of this generation reâ€" member his preaching. Mr. Wm. Moore. In Normanby, on Thursday the 11th Anst. at the ripe age of 84. "Deceased was a native of Lincolnshire, England, and came to this ccuntry in 1853 living for many years near «uelph. As he never married, for the past 20 years he made his home with his brother, Mr. Geo. Moore, and in his declining days was ministered to with tender ecare. He was upright in _character, and when in health bli;u seat ihn chn{‘crh \ was seldom empty. is nephe % Geo, Moore, Te â€"swater, u«? l(:.'Wm. Moore, Flesherton, were over at the funeral, which was largely attended U lc s en oi s 2 1 . He very touchingly reminded ‘them that eighteen years ago 2nd of August last Mr, McLeod was inducted into the Priceville chirge, the three ministers ‘)rvwnt being the late Rev. Mr. Park, Jurhain, Rev, Mr, Morrison, Cedaryilie, and himself, he being the only one still in harness, He paid a warm tribute to the worth of the deceased and made a striking raference to the custom of black draping while the departed just are reâ€" presented in apocalyptic vision as being clad in robes of white, No doubt Mr. McLeod would have a monument at his fruve but a better monument was the eautiful church they were met in, to which they had givren much thought and care. _A better monument still was the lasting impressi m .e u«. made on the spiritual life of .us people, which would, in its effects, outlast all tangible memorials, Mr. McRobbie said he had intended to be with them the night previous in their pleasure, and it gave him a melanâ€" choly satisfaction to be with them in their sorrow. He spoke of the conseqâ€" vuence of man‘s first disobedience, the loss of the presence of God, being one of the greatest of theconsequence of sin. Death was one of these, but the Christâ€" ian looked to the dark future with conâ€" Bdence owing to the rays of light which scripture truth had pierced through it, «It helped us to conceive of the futnrc- life by benutiful figures, such as rivers of pleasure, trees of life, etc. The body was carried to the densely cked graveyard near by and after a mml_\' service, his brethren of the Sons o Scotland paid their last tribute to him in their beautifal burial service. and deposited their sprigs of eyergreen in his tomb. He then very eloquently pictured some of the glories of the future. We should be free from the contamination of sin, will haye perfect peace, and the Kve-c-nce of Christ himself would make eaven heaven. We cannot with our imperfect natures take in the glory. Jacob fainted at the sight of Joseph‘s waggons. The Queen of Sheba lost her spirit at Solomon‘s lories, much more would a sight of fiom‘cn surprise us while it would seâ€" duce us from all earthly entanglements. He then took a retrospective view of the d: c «se 1, who had g ven : is atrength his prety, his scholarship, his devotion to them. _ His whole carte had been for his people, what had they given in reâ€" turn. Mis greatest pleasure would be to see all walking in the way of life to which his eaching and his example conâ€" tinually direc.ed them. Rev. Mr. Crozier was the moderator of t ie occasion, and before calling on Mr. Mc boie, who was to be ch.ef speaker, made a brief but interesting address which touched many hearts, His brethren of the Orangeville Presâ€" bytery were in session the day he died, and four of their number were present at his bbsequies: Reverends CUCrozier, Grand Valiley ; McKenzie, Orangeville; MeRobbiec, Shelburne; and Harriston, Dundalk _ Rev. Mr. Humphreys, of the Methodist church, Priceville, also took part. For nearly 18 years he had gone out and in among a warmbearted and affecâ€" tionate peope, and so when death snapâ€" ped the tie it was to be expected that all would mourn, while to many, outâ€" mde his own family his removal seemed & personal loss. _ The loving husband, the kind father, the faithful pastor bas gone to his reward, and his people will cherish his memory. His congregation had planned for a soiree. but his death coming the day beâ€" fore it was at once abandoned. The lev. gentleman has not been robust for some years, the care and oversight of a large congregation, spread over a wide ares, having been a trying task to him physically, though his deâ€" votion to duty never flagged while he avas al all able. While death is one of the comm »mest incidents of everyday life, it is not often in this district that a pastor in active service bas died in the midst of blsln.-o- ple a« was the case with the Rey. Donâ€" ald McLeod, of Priceville, who died on Tuesday, March O9th last, after only a few weeks illness.
