CD 3 CD CQ 1 CD a. »â€" '• o Iâ€" '• CO ci- crt- M w cy5 o CO o o The editor of the FlesLerton Ad- vance clipped last week an item from our news column and part of our Flesherton Station Correspondence, we are pleased that be gave those items as tliey were â€" tor, had he ccm- mented on them without giving them ill full, those who would not have an opuortunitty of seeing the items re- ferred to, would really think we had Kjiid something worthy of censure in reference to Flesherton. Mr. Fawcett the editor says comment is un- necessary, and then tries to palm off an article as a correspondence from a farmer of Artemesia, W3 challenge Jiiiu to give the name of any respec- 1 table farmer of Artemesia who will father the correspondence referred to. It is an evidence of weakness when in order to give an article a tone of re- spect and credibility, the editor endeavours to make it appear from another source. We have never spoken disparagicigly in reference to Flesber- tcn or the citizens of that place through the Standard, much less given place to items 7iean and can- temjitible. Of course when thf editor of the Advancfi overdraws his pictures (aa he often does) we are apt to poke fun at him, and our correspondent at Fleshestcn Station appears disposed to do likewise. Anytbing we have Paid by way of cross-firing with the Advance has been in the defensive. We have many warm friends in Flesher- ton and vicinity who show in a practi- cal manner* their appreciation of a respectable journal by the generous .support they continue to give the ]\Iarkdale Stakdard, and it would not be pnidtuit to act in a disrespectful ii;anuei' in reference to our patrons or tliL'ir interests even we were per- sonal,- iiiclined to do so, but that is not our nature, and wx can assure Mr. Fawcett that he will not he able to draw us into anv such course. 3901^ tro NoTicB. â€" We wiah it distinctly understood that we do not hold oorselres responsible for the opinions expressed by oar correspondents To Mb. and Mbs. CniraiNGHAM, Respected friends, we, the members of Loyal Markdale Lodge C. 0. 0. F. No. 78. haviug, with regret, heard of the deatlj of your son Robert, our late highly esteemed citizen and brother, desire to share with you the sorrow which you are now bearing in, your present sore bereavement and also to assure you of our united sym- pathy in the same. We trust that He who in wisdom and love has re- moved him from your embrace will give you comfort in the hour of need, and grace lo sustain you amid this heavy and unexpected affliction. And now that he is no more with you it may be gratifying to you to know that durmg his residence in this place he was both a consistent and useful mem- ber of society, that by his kind and genial manner, his sober habits and exemplary walk, he won the esteem, and retained the i-espect of a large cir- cle of friends, vvho now mourn be- cause of his removal.' Though a young man he was one whose life was full of labors, being for years an ac- tive worker in the Sabbath school and latterly a promising member of the church. Recognizing his removal as an act of the Great Master, who, in His mysterious Providence does all ihings well, let us with hallowed sub- mission say, " Thy will. Oh Lord, be done." e- (G.

It is a credit to the members and tbe people of Flesherton, in fact, it is second to none iu the couuty. We congratulate the members on tlie success of their social, and thank them for the kind invitation extended to your correspon- dent. Police Trustees.â€" It appears that our police trustees have not been legal- ly elected to their resjiective offices. This is really too bad. From our youth up we have been familiar with the following piece of poetry "Lives of great men oft remind us. We can make our lives sublime And leparting leave behind us, Footmarks in the sands of time." We have seen this prediction fulfilled this spring, here in our village, ai- most every day. Pedestrians 'can leave footmarks, or bodymarks. in the sands of mud and dirt on our ^idewalk. Could not last year's police take the matter in hand Largest arrival of the season.
