Fleaherton citizens were shocked on Tuesday evening when word came over the wire from Ceylon that John Ht-mphill. eldest son of Mr. Sangster Hemphill, had been drowned in Wil- cock's Lake a mile and a quarter south of Flesherton station. On Tuesday evening after supper a number of Ceylon young men and women went down for a bathe and swim in the south arm of the lake, where there is a nice pebbly beach. A couple young women got into diffi- culty and called for assistance, when Eldon McLachlan and the deceased went to their aid. The latter is a good swimmer. McLachlan assisted the girls to shore, then thought of Hemphill, and on looking saw his head disappear, without any outcry, and he was not seen again. The alarm was given, but it was over two hours before the body was recovered in about ten feet of water, some forty feet from shore. Although attempts at resuscitation were made they were futile, as life was quite extinct. The young man was twenty-seven years of age. The deceased was an exemplary young man, a member of te Flesher- ton Methodist church and actve in church work. He served overseas for nearly two years and was wounded while fighting. His death in this man- ner is a terrible shock to his father, with whom he was associated in bus- iness, and his brother and sisters and much sympathy is extended to them by everybody, while regret for the terrible fatality is universal with all who knew the young man. Car Ditched Buggy Another automobile collision occur- red on Thursday niirht of last week on the flat this side of the cemetery when a buggy, occupied by Mr. Jack N'eilson of Proton Station was over- :urned into the ditch. He was com- ng into town and a car, driven by :wo Markdale young ladies, came up Behind and attempted to pass on the wrong side. Mr. N'eilson did not hear the horn when they tooted, but when the car started to pass in the narrow part he pulled over to the right side of the road and the car struck the cmggy. When both the car and rwggy came to rest they were both in the ditch, one on each side of the road, but .fortunately, nobody was hurt. Both the occupants went on rejoicng that the accidetit had been no worse. CEYLON Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Bryant and two children, who spent a couple of weeks at N". .Archibald's, have return- ed to their home inToronto. Mr. Houston of Kleinburjr is re- lieving for Percy Hemphill. who is on a two weeks' vacation. Mrs. Savage of Toronto is holiday- ing with her friend, Mrs. Wilson McMullen. The Sabbath School held a picnic at Genoe's grove Friday. Those present report a very good time. Mrs. Alex. Stewart and daughter of Owen Sound and Mrs. Alfred Har- rison of Flesherton were visitors at Mrs. F. J. Collinson's last week. Mr. J. K. McLeod and bride are now comfortably settled in their new home on Stone's Line and are receiv- ing many congratulations from Mr. McLeod's many friends. Mrs. Glen of Red Wing and Mrs. Beckett from near Thornbury were visitors at Mrs. J. J. Patterson's the past week. Mr. N. Archibald motored to Tor- onto the first of the week. Mr. C. Irish of Wareham spent the week end at Mr.S.Hemphill'?. Ross McMullen of Weston spent the week end at his home here. Miss Agnes McPhail, M.P., was in Toronto a couple days the past week, returning home Saturday. Miss Myrtle Hemphill returned to the city on Monday after spending a plasant fortnight at her home here. Mr. Twambly of Toronto has been a visitor for a week atMr. J. Gibson's. Mr. and Mrs. Joe Hemphill and three children of Toronto arrived on Monday to visit at Mr. S. Hemphill's and with ether friends.

Clarke of the Depart- ment of Justice and Mrs. Clarke, who have been on a visit to their son, George, in the Province of Alberta, where he is engaged in banking and ranching, arrived in Flesherton on Saturday. Mr. Clarke returned to Ottawa yesterday, but Mrs. Clarke < will visit with her sister, Mrs. F. H. j W. Hickling for a week or two. The ' crops in the Prairie Provinces are re- I ported by Mr. Clarke to be in aplen- ! did condition. There has been plenty uf rain, with intermittant warm sun- sine, and even the usually dry south- ern regions will likely give ample returns. It is true that some dist- ricts have had hail storms which caus- ed loss to grain growers to a greater or less extent; but that loss is in the large majority of cases, covered by insurance. As a whole, the yield will be a bumper one probably approx- imating that of 1915, which was the most prolific known in the history of the West. Farmers generally, as well as businss men, are therefore optimistic as to the future, but state that they will combine to agitate for more advantageous freight rates and the widest possible market for their products.
