Leppard We were very sorry to hear of the sudden death of Mrs. Jas. Leppard on Tuesday morning, Nov. 21st, at her late residence on the 8th line. The deceased had been as well as usual when she retired Monday night. Her peaceful and sudden passing was an answer to her wishes, as she had often said she wished to die without being a burden to anyone. Mrs. Leppard, whose maiden nam^- was Mary Ann Meggott, was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Phillip Meggott,, and was born in Caledon township, She was in her 86th year and had endured the hard- ships of pioneer life. Her father who lived to the advanced age of 102 years, was bom in England. He came to Canada when 20 years of age, when the Russian war was wag- ing. Over 50 years ago deceased was married to the late James Leppard and resided in Eugenia. Together they made a home and reared seven children, Sarah (Mrs. Holmes) and Maggie (Mrs. Grabell) and Thomas, all having predeceased her, and Rob- ert, who sacrificed his life in the Great War, Mary Ellen and Joey, both passing away while quite young, Susie (Mrs. Rody Gordon) who has been looking after her mother since her father's death two years ago. Besides her daughter, Mrs. Gordon, she leaves to mourn seven grand- children, one brother Robert Meggott, of Plesherton and three sisters Mrs. Cliff (Harriett) of Oshawa, Mrs. Parker of Leeds and Mrs. Ridley of Dakota. •'W^ The funeral on Thursday, Nov. 23, from her late residence, was conduct- ed by the Rev. Dr. Mercer of Eugenia United Church, whose message was based on 2nd Timothy 6-8. He paid high tribute to the deceased mother. D. McTavish & Sons Join the Business Men of Flesherton in Celebrating the First Anniversary of the Flesherton Creamery AND INVITE YOU TO ATTEND THE ANNUAL Fowl Day on December 13 As long-time dealers for Chevrolet, Oldsniobile and Chevrolet Trucks, we cong-ratulate the Flesherton Creamery on its first anniversary.

We want you to compare these grand General Motors products against the field. If you do, you'll find that Chevrolet and Oldsniobile lead in appearance - in comfort - in i)erf()rmance - in economy - and in safety. You'll be pleasantly surprised to discover that prices are away below last year's ! Practically the same as last year's when one con- siders the many deluxe features included in 1940 models.

Dr. Mercer spoke words of respect of the honored dead and said that we must respect and have great admiration for the mother whom we lay aside, who had gone to u realm of infinite joy and gladness. This mother had fought a great batUe between good and evil. Her life work was ended and she could say^ with the Apostle Paul, that a cro'wn of righteousness awaited her.
