The Fociety is but a tew weeks out of port. Mrs. Fred Tucker received a paper last week announcing the dpath of her grand- mother, Mis. David Fralick nf Uxbridge, at the age of 87 years. The family, whose lir.e is terminated by the dea'h of this lady, enjoyed a record for longevity that is seldom equalled. The past rccoid shows ages reached by other members of the family of 97, 95, 93, 82. 80, 87 and 88. Mr. James Kesier, residing with his 80 -ill-law, Mr. Richard Porteoua, at Rook vale, shot a small lynx the other diiy while the animal was trying to make a meal out of a plymouth rock rooster thai it had captured in the barnyard about the noon hour. The car was as poor oa poverty and must havo been neaily starved to death in order to make It so bold. Mr. Jos. Cairns has been doing some deals in stallions recently. He has sold Grownslow Charming to McReiizio and CHnt 11 of Redickville, and Grownslow Jr. to Baden and McDonald of Exeter, taking from the latter, in exchange, a magnificent imported Clyde, Gray's Gartley, which he thinks will be just what iR wanted by the fanners of this di-strict. A successful box social was held at the Station on Wednesday niuht of last; week under the auspices of L. O. L. No. 883. Forty-two boxes wore auctioned by D.Mc- Phail. W. G.

U Cairns, R. Brodie and Norman McLeod. Mrs. J. L, Woods presided at the instrument and Mr. Woods occupied the chair in his usual graceful manner. Mr. Malcolm F'erguson had an exciting time on the valley road last Saturday • He was bringing a load of logs home and while comini; down a steep grade the neekyoke broke and the who'e ourfit started ofl" for the foot of the hill at break- neck tpeed â€" all but Mr. Feifuson. He jinnped when the accident happened, Nearing the bottom the sleigh, not being guided, ran off the road, but the horses didn't â€" they kept on for a short distancOj when one of them took to the hush. Tha other came on up the road for aljout a mile, when it was stopp^id. We under- stand that the harness was nob badly damaged. A jolly party of 31 neighlors paid a neighborly call on Mr. Lemuel Belts of the CjUingwood gravel on Mond.ay even- ing last to coneragulale that youiii; {') ge .tlenian, upon attaining his 89tli birth- day. Mr. Betts is halo and hearty still and wishes us t-i expre-s his yratitude for the kindly visit of his nei^jhhors. The latter enjoyed themselves, too, being served with u dainty supper, and afier- wai'ds enjoyed reiiiiniscences, etc., of a iMture generally inaulged in by youngsters who have reached the three score years or less.
