THE FLESHERTON ADVANCE WEDNESDAY. JUNE 21, 1983 J k 4. Leg Broken While Playiog Baseball Jack Dow, shortstop for the Flesh- erton Baiseball Club in the Centre Grey League, suffered a fracture ot his \eg in the game at Kimberley last Thursday afternoon, that will lay him up for three months. Jack reached first base with a walk and as he was tak.'ng a lead-off on a pitched ball, slipped on the wet ground as he at- tempted to return to the bag when the ball was thrown to Myles, the first baseman. As he was caught away from the bag' Jack decided that the next best thing to do was to light out for second. Myles took after him and when a few feet from second was caught and called out. At the same time he slid along the ground, his foot catching in the second base bag, at the same time falling. The wrench broke the bone in his leg be- low the knee and the two bones, which join at the ankle were split in two parts. He was taken to the Mark- dale hospital where an x-ray exam- ination was made and the leg bandag- ed. He is at present resting at the home of his mother in town and would be pleased to receive callers at any time. Jack was a valuable mem- ber of the team and his absence from the line-up will be keenly felt. Th' ; accident calls to mind a sim- ilar one which befell Dr. Prsston Beatty of Toronto, who was doing the receiving for Fieshenon la 1921, â- when he slid into second in a game at Flesherton and also received a fracture of his leg. Caaght Two Fine Trout Two large brook trout from one small hole is a record that Mr. Everett Graham of the Valley Road is justly proud of. One of the trout meas- ured 17 inches in length and weighed two pounds, seven ounces, while the other was 14 inches in len^h and wei'ghed an even pound. These fine members of the finny . tribe were •caught Thursday evening in a four- foot trout hole in the Beaver River which runs through Mr. Graham's property. While trout r<; large and larger have been landed in the Hydro Lake if is the first one as large that we have heard of being taken from a small river. SIdppen â€" Fiegehen Grace Unit«d Church, Thornbury, was the scene of a very pretty wedd- ing, when Florence Mildred, daughter of Mr. Luther Fiegehen and the late Mrs. Fiegehen was united in mar- riage to Jonathan Bruce Skippen, son of Mr. and Mrs. William Skippen, Thornbury. The ceremony was per- formed by Rev. S. E. Annis, on Wed- nesday, June 14. The bride was prettily gowned in a grey wool crepe suit, with platinum vicuna fox fijr. Her accessories were grey and she carried a bouquet ol June flowers and maidenhair fern. Miss Spray Skippen was bridesmai^ and wore a di'ess of peach flat crepe, white hat and shoes and accessories. She also carried June flowers and maidenhair fern. Mr. Victor Fiegehen, brother of the bride, supported the groom. The groom's gift to the bride was a white gold pendant, to the brides- maid a bracelet of brilliants and to the groomsman silver cuff links with engraved initials. After the cere- mony the happy couple left amid showers of confetti and congratula- tions for Toronto, Niagara Falls and other points. On their return they will reside on the groom's farm, thret miltJs south of Flesherton, on No. 11 Highway. Second Death In Past Three Weeks Mri . D. Levins Passes At Her Home In The West A telegram was received last weel^ by Mrs. John Pedlar of town, an- nouncing the death of her sister, Mrs. D.

Fifty-one years ago she married David Levins and together made theii home for several years at Owen Sound Aboot thirty-four years ago they went to Armstrong, British Columbia, where they ha«t since resided.

SMITH â€" In loving memory of the late Burton Smith, son of the late Mr. Harold Smith and iV.rs. Jas. Mc- kenzie, who was accidentally killed on June 22, 1929. We think of you, dear Burton, But not with outward show For the hearts that mourn sincerely Mourn silently and low. The silent grief that's in the soul, 'No human life can trace. For many an aching heart is hid Behind a smiling face. In his grave he's calmly sleeping, His spirit shines above; Safe in the Saviour's keeping Waiting for those he loves. â€" Sadly missed by his Mother, Wife and Family and his grandparents, Mr and Mrs. John Parson.
