Died From Blood Poisoning From Bite Of Mink Social At Rock Mills The Advance regrets verj' keenly to announce the death of Mr. Thomas Fraser Lockhar. of Dundalk, who passed away on Sunday morning after an extremely painful illness from blood poisoning, caused by the bite of a mink, the event of which we gave out a couple of weeks ago. Mr. Lockhart was, we believe, a native of Artemesia township, where he was born 56 years ago. He leaves a sorrowing wife and six children â€" four daughters and two sons. Mr. Lockhart was a successful man of business, and was well liked by all who had dealings with him. More re- cently he has been engaged in fox ranching, in which he has also been very successful. He was a member of the Dundalk Masonic Lodge, ai\<l the the funeral at Dundalk takes place this (Wednesday) afternoon under the auspices of that Order. The writer was associated with him as a member of the High Falls Hunt Club, to which he had for many years been attached, and we, along with the otliertmembers of that Club, feel his death very keenly. His ready wit and extensive knowledge of forest lore made him a companion to be admired and respected, and with every other member of the party we join in extending our sympathy to the family. We all knew his worth as husband and father, and join in mourning with them over the seem- ingly useless destruction of a life which we deemed so useful. The U.F.W.O. Unity Club of Rock Mills are having an ice cream social at the home of Chas. Newell on Fri- ! day evening, August 15th. There \ \ will be horseshoe pitching and foot* I ; ball at 7 p.m. sharp. ^ Program at 8 . I p.m. No admission to grounds, i I Miss McPhail will be present. Cake ; and ice cream at the booth. Every- '. \ body welcome. | BORN FISHERâ€" To Mr. and Mrs. 8. J. Fisher, Fourth Line, Artemesia, on Saturday, August 2nd, 1024, a daugh- ter, Mai7 Roberta.
