Deceased was the son of the late George Ingram and Katherine Tud- hope and was born in Medonte town- ship on the Scottish Line, known as the Il'1}:`1`211 11 Road, and hig`-hl_v re- _L-`arded by all who knew him. Twenty-nine years ago he :narr.ied Isabella McIntyre of Oro, who sur- vives him, with two sons and a daiugihter. Three sisters also sur- vive, Mrs. Geo. l\IcLean of Barrie, and Miss Jean and Margaret In_:;'r.1m of Toronto. The funeral on Friday was largely attended, and the floral tributes many and beautiful.

The wit- ness repiiied that they we1'en t rub- ber boots, but bush rubbers with leather tops coming" half way up his calves. He knew nothing` of the mash found by the police. His wife corroborated him in this, ; she `had made it after he went to Shanty Bay. It was one of the secrets s-he (lid not conde in her lhe-lp-mate.

In a boiler on top of an oil stove which was doin_e; its duty nobly, the oicers found a thick, syrupy mash which seemed to consist of a conglomeration of raisins and niolasses. This evil mix- ture had been sent to Toronto and found to be 12.31 per cent. proof spirits. It could have been drunk if any one was fool enough to do so. When the oicers tried to disconnect `the still they met with more spiri.ted opposition from Mrs. Boone's tO`.1_ 1,'l1C and strong right arm. Eden Boone, son of the defe-ndan-t and occupant of the other half of the h-ouse, which is a duplex one, came in `by the back door while the oicers were still there, but was allowed to 12:0 out the front door again to get his sister, Mrs. Kashner, of Tifn St. There had been no sign of Isaac B-oone, though the witness felt sure he had been there and escaped. Boone had finally been apprehended in a sh- ing shack near Shanty Bay. He had `tried to get away again on that oc- casion. After being captured he had declared to the oicers several times that -he had nothing to do with the house, and had been in his son's half of the house on the nvigfnt of the raid. __, _ .. . . `.1 I l 1 .,..... . el`I, that make intoxicating she was asked.

The mini.~Jters of the town were invited, along with the congregation, and af- ter a banquet in the S.S. rooms, g'athere(l in the church to tender a formal welcome to Mr. W=h-an. Rev. .V1cM-ullen and Rev. A. R. Beverley conducted a short devotional service, after which Miss Sinclair pleased with a solo. Rev. Wm.

He reg`retted the transfer of Mr. Wihan from the Toronto to the Barrie Ministerial Association. He made an appeal that the Baptist people stand behind the Boards of their own denomination and refrain from thinking` that they could spend their money to grater advantage `through other Boards. He spoke of "the debt the Baptist church owed to the Cong'1'eg`a.tional, Anglican and i.\h-thodist denominations and of the status of the Baptist `church to-day. It had risen from a church that was poor nancially, socially and in edu- cational enterprise to 'be one of the outstanding" evangelical denomina- tions of the day. He went on to speak of the need of loyalty between pastor and people. Much (iCDUl`.(iS on the unity of the church, he said. A divided church is a useless or- rzanization.

Mr. Whan then rose to express his own and Mrs. Whzm'e apprecia- tion of the welcome given. He ask- ed for the prayers of the people for the church, for himself, for the un- saved, for the communirty, the de- nomination, and the other ministers, and expressed the hope that this new union of pastor and people would re- sult in rich blessing` to all concerned.

A lean-to woodshed ran across the rear of the half of the house occu- pied by Isaac Boone. At each end of this there was a door. Constable Rayner had taken up his stand at the door facing the A-llandale station, and not knowing` of the other s ex- istence, had left it unguiarded.
