' Very considerable interest is being i manifested in the coming concert on behalf of Miss Franziska. Heinrich, and the best people of Barrie are showing their appreciation of the effort of Miss Heinrich to" complete her` musical edu- cation. This young artist is one of ` the most brilliant graduates and gold i ' medalist of the Conservatory of Music. Some time since :1. recital was given in Toronto" under very distinguished patronage as a compliment to_Miss Heinrich and with the purpose of securing a. fund to enable her to spend some few years in Europe. The same purpose is behind the Barrie enter- tainment Which will take place shortly. The pzttronesses will include 1VIesd'unes (Judge) Ardagh, `McLeod, Ross, (Dr.) McCarthy. Plummer, Grasett, Patter- son, Devine, Hinds, Shanncy and Martin Burton In at town as fond of the best in musiuas is Barrie there is reason. to believe that the Heinrich entertainment will rank among one of the most important of. the present `musical season. `The young artistls i talents merit all the support that can i be given the entertainment.

Mr. \Villiam Lount was born March 3, 1840, at the_ Village of Holland Landing, in the Township of North York. He is the son of the late George Lount, who at that time was Registrar for the Home District, and subse- quently Registrar of the County of imcoe. The family moved from Hol- land Landing to Barrie when Mr. Louut was six years old. He received his education at Barrie Grraunnar School, the same institution in which Mr. D'Alton McCarthy, Mr. B. B. Oslcr, K.U., Mr. Justice Osler and othernien of prominence were edu- cated. After completing his course at the (airammar School Mr. Lount went to Toronto to study law,` lirst in the office of the late Sir Adam Wilson, and subsequently in the office of Sir Oliver Mowat, where he nished his legal education, Having passed his examination as a barrister, he entered into practice as a `lawyer in Barrie. Almost immediately he acquired an extensive practice, and for many years had as an opponent Mr. D Alton Mc- Carthy, who also practised in Barrie and enjoyed an extensive. business. In 1867, when he was twenty-five years of age, Mr. Lount stood as candidate for Pau-liament in the Riding of North `Simcoe, his opponent being the late Mr. Angus Morrison. He defeated Mr. Morrison, being returned as a. sup- ortfer of the Government of John Saneld Macdonald. At the next general election he v oiiered himself again. still as a supporter of the San`- eld Macdonald Government. On this occasion he was opposed bv.Mr. H. H. Cook, who then represented .the Re- form interests, and by the la.te`Mr. `V. D. Ardagh, who stood as a Conservat- ive candidate. cornered tight, where the vote was so much split up, he was defeated. Mr. Louut then retired from public life and devoted himself closely to his pro- fession. He still took an active part in Parliamentary elections for a num- ber of years, however, during which time he was President of the North ' Simcoe Retm-m Associa.tion and chiey . elections in that responsible for the management of part of the country. Mr. Louut still continued to reside in Barrie until 1885 hen in consequence of the death of he late Mr. Bethune he left Barrie to go to Toronto and enter into partnership with Mr. Marsh, who had been Mr. Bethune s partner. u.. nnnn ...-uh: hie wnv tnthe to!) 01 In the ensuing three- l As Judge of the Court 0!
