-*~- , ' -**< . VoU2, No. 26 Flcstierton, ( >nt., December 13 1921 FEVERSHAM Exceptionally fine weather for the time of year. No snow and the mild weather and occacional sunshine will -surely shorten the usually long win- ter. On the Blue Mountain on Satur- day we saw some farmers plowing. What might have ended in a serl- ou accident, ended with no serious results. One day last week, while driving his team homeward from this Tillage. Stewart McMullen tied the lines to the seat of the wagon and jumped off to walk awhile. After walking for some time, he jumped up on the hind part of the wagon. His usually quiet horses started -to run and," before he could get hold of the lines, which had become loosened and were down at the horses heels, the horses ran one on each side of a buggy driven by Miss Verna Roberts, who wad driving home from high school. After demolishing the buggy and throwing the girls out, Lidia L'dell and Verna both, the horses got out of the mixup and went home- ward at breakneck speed and Stewart had to jump out of the wagon, being unable to get the lines. .However, none of them were seriously hurt and the horses came off without a scratch. Sorry to report Mr. John Tyson and McGirr on the sick list. We hope to see them both well again soon. While we write the autos are buz- zing through the village as if in the forepart of October in place of De- cember.

Well, the election will be over be- fore this appears in print and then we may expect cooler weather, as ^lere has been considerable hot air floating over the Mountain for some time. - Mrs. Win. Davidson. sr. t of this village, picked a number of ripe strawberries off the vines in the gar- den on November 30th. Another evidence of how warm the mountain air has been lately. Ths L T . F.

There died on Thursday, of last week, (November 24th), after only two days' illness, Mrs. Jean Campbell, widow of the late Jock Campbell, con- cession 15. Proton, aged 91 years. The funeral was held on Sunday to the Latter Day Saint cemetery. W. G. Watson, of Priceville, was the un- dertaker in charge and Elder Taylor, of Grand Valley, the officiating cler- gyman. Mrs. Campbell was born in Scotland on the 31st of October, 1830, and there spent her girlhood days. Her maiden name was Jean Black, sister of the late Robert Black, of this place. Sixty-nine years ago she married John Campbell and shortly after being married set sail for Canada on an imigration ship. The Grand Trunk Railway, the first in Canada, was at that time under construction and Mr. and Mrs. Camp- bell first founS employment there. .Mr. Campbell on the road and his wife in the camp. While there em- ployed, their oldest son, John, now 68 years of age, was born iu what is now known as the village of Malton, then a railway camp. Shortly after this Mr. Campbell followed the survey of the gravel road from Guelph to Owen Sound, with many other pioneers, and settled in Normanby township, and there a second son was born, Joseph. 4 years ago. This young couple came into Proton, settling on lots 11 and 12. con. 15, where they since re- sided and prospered. Two daughters. Mrs. Dougald McPhail and Margaret. Mrs. McGregor; also four sonsn Willi- am. Thomas. George and Robert, who were born here, all are living and were present at their mother's funer- al. The community exteujd to- each of them sincere sympathy In their be- reavement. We rejoice with them in that their mother lived so long and that she left to the neighborhood au example of a full life well lived. She was of a bright and cheerful disposi- tion and the smile still on her face in death that was there all her life will be a sweet remembrance to her family. Mr. Campbell died about 19 years ago; thus the pioneers are pass- ing, we have very few left and those few deserve our kindest thoughts for the hardships they bore in the early days. Some of those early pioneers are: Mrs. Duncan McMillen, 84 years of age; John Ferguson, 82 years of age: Mr. and Mrs. W. J. Wilson, both in their eightiee. These, we think, are the only ones in this community who came in the bush with the first settlors and started on their own hook. We hope they may yet see many years. Duudulk Herald.
