PRESTON Manager, Flesherton Branch | Will Move Machinerr To the Valley Road Sun Times Report. In the closing hours of the Janu- uary session of Grey County Council on Saturday a resolution was passed which, while important enough, really caused a titter among the majority of the members, as it was sprung in a hurry and as a general rule very little attention is paid to these reso- lutions introduced at the last mo- ment, and it went through without a word The resolution, moved by Reeve W. H. Thurston, and seconded by Reeve Alex. Cameron of Artemesia, I providedfor the moving of one of the iroad making outfits belonging to the county from Meaford, where it is at the pesent time, to the Valley road, which starts two miles south of Eugenia and runs through to Thombury via Eugenia. Kimberley Heathcote and Clarksburg. The road begins about two miles cast of Flesherton. According to the terms of the resolution the machinery is to be moved by the first of May 'and the County Road Committee was given the authority to go ahead with the improvement on this road.

Bentham Mr. Richard Bentham of the sub- urbs had the distinction of catching a live black fox in a trap he had on his property for the purpose of catihing stray foxes that would fall) victims. The catch was made Tues-I day morning of this week and it ap-l peared to have been in the trap) for only a short time when caught. 1 Upon inquiry the owner was found to| be the Priceville Fox Cmpany, of| which Mr. J. M. McGillivray is the manager and had escaped from the] ranch about ten days ago. No trace] or word of the animal had been secur-' cd until it was caught.
