Miir Donald McLeod In the passing of Donald McLeod, Flesherton and the Township of Art- emesia loses one of its oldest and most highly respected citizens. A life-long resident of Artemesia, the end came quietly in the early morn- ing hours on Friday, March 5th, in his 82nd year, at the home of his son, Snowden, south of the village. The late Mr. McLeod was a son of one of Grey County's pioneers, Don- ald McLeod, who settled on crown grant land in 1849 on the West Back- line, where he spent his entire life. He was married to Miss Jennie Stewart, who predeceased him by even years. He farmed on the Mc- Leod home stead Until his retirement FIX years ago.

Beatty) Madoc; Percy R. at Whitby and Cnowden of Flesherton. He also leaves one sister, Mrs. M. Mitchell, of Montreal and one brother, Mr. John D. McLeod of Ceylon. His interest lay in the Fraternal sphere and served as County Master of the Orange Association in East Grey. He was an honorary member of Flesherton LO.L. 2855. He gave unselfish service to his Township as n member of the Council, during which time he was one of the main kponsors in the establishment of the- High School in Flesherton. He was also blessed with a happy, unselfish personality which is a monument to on active and useful life, which will ever remain a happy memory. In religion he was a life-long member of the Presbyterian Church, and in politics a Conservative. Following a private service for the family, all of whom were in attend- ance with their families, a public lervice was conducted in St. John's United Church by Mr. F. B. Keys.
