He was married in 1829 to Miss Leah Swartz, who predeceased him 11 years. Unto them were born seven children,--five boys and two girls, all of whom survive them.

DEAR Sip. --1n your issue of April the 13th your‘regulax‘ correspondent from New Dundee made some state- ments about Rev. J. A. Learn, which I think deserve some oorrection. Your correspondent after making some statemen's about his farewell meeting at Roseville goes on to state that his withdrawal from our peaceful burg was quite different, where only on occasions of extreme provocation do the boys offer a cool rebuke in the shape of snowballs" Now in the the first place if our boys are guilty, as your COP- respondent states of srtowballing, our citizens that live in our little village, why is it that your cor- respondent has not a word of disuppproval of such rowdyism, by not rehnking such conduct? Your corres- pondent did not, in so many words, say that the Rev. gentleman alone named was snowballed, but why did he make reference to it at a l, if it was not in- tended for your readers to get that im- pression? If your correspOndent was so informed by anyone that the Rev, gentleman Was ever snowballed in New Dundee, I would inform him that such is not the case, as the Rev. Gentleman informed me be knows nothing about anyone ever throwing any snowballs at him. A strange kind of snowbalhng and the person never finding it out who was snowballed. To the Edilor of the Chronicle I would say in defence of the Chara- cter of our young people of New Dun dee that they are as fur as I know, quite respectable and well behaved and I eousider your correspondent has done them an injustice in casting any veflec, tion upon their conduct of which they are not guilty. I _would not me too hard :on your correspondent for the statements made for possibly he might be subject to dreams or visions, and thus honestly have sent it to you as a real occurence, whenin reality there was no truth in' it at all. Thanking you for the space, I remain yours respectfully, Constant Reader. _' New Dundee April 24th 1893.
