The Peterboro Review of Monday sayszâ€"The citizens of the town were shocked this morning when they were apprised of the death of Dr. Kempt, and on all hands regret was expressed for the grief-stricken family, the husband and father having passed away without a moment’s warning. ~ 5-. Dr. Kempt had spent yesterday after- noon as the guest of his sister. Mrs. R. Fife. a short distance from town, and returned this morning, He had only entered his residence on Murray-st. when he was taken suddenly ill and fell upon asofa in the office. Dr. McCull- ough, whose office was in Dr. Kempt’s residence, was Called. and he at once declared the doctor’s condition serious, and several other physicians were sum- moned. but all efforts to revive the patient did not succeed, and in five minutes after his arrival at his home death had claimed the doctor. Heart failure was declared to be the cause of death. Dr. Kempt had not been enjoying good health for some months. He settled in ‘Paterboro nearly a year ago and shortly afterward he began to sufler severely from a trouble With his eyes. and for some time his eyesight had been gone. He consulted With some of the best known specialists in Canada and the United ‘States and only returned last week from 1 New York, where he had been undergo- ing treatment, but improvement was not noticeable. Ownng to his eye trouble the doctor had not been able to conduct his practice for some months. AL- L,i__L3_. r-â€"â€"_---- __ The deceased was born in the township of Belmont. near N orwood, over 60 years ago and after receiving a common and High school education he entered the McGill university, M )ntresl, and graduat- ed in medicine. He settled in Lindsay and practiced there until his removal to Peterboro. 1n Lindsay the doctor was a. much esteemed citizen, respected by all classes. Dr. Kempt married Miss Ms- cauley, of Trenton, who with six children survive. The sons are Walter, who resides near New York, and. George, who is at home, Mrs. (Dr.) Kerrigan, New York, Misses Helena, in the Infirmary hospital. New York, and Grace and GeneVieve, at home, are the daughters. Mrs. Robt. Fife, Smith; Mrs. Burgess Belmont ; Mrs. Pettigrew, N orwood, and Miss Kempt, Norwood, are sisters of the deceased. The late Sheriff Kcmpt of Lindsay, was a brother of Dr. Kempt. Dr. Kempt was a man who gained the esteem and confidence of all whom he came into contact. In professional life he was acknowledged to be a clever practitioner. diligent student, and kind with his patients. The doctor was a most genial, affable: gentleman. and though popular with everyone never took an active part in public affairs. That JunketiTg’ ExBedntIon to Ottawa. To the Editor of the W atchmaq.

It is a lamentable state of affairs when a town the size and importance of Lind- say is obliged (against its will I admit) to accept the services in a representative SAL-) Jun-‘finQ-h-xn HDU‘l'U lllv uu---"~ 7,, 1 capacity of a self-appointed deputation composed of such meagre business talent. and to make matters Worse, not a. single member of this famous junketing expedi- tion took the trouble to inform himself of the merits or demerits of the question at issue. Luckily an opportunity did not occur for the junkotera to explain or make an attempt to explain, what they went there for. I 1,; "vs-v \..v.' - Unfortunately the mayor, who had gone to a great deal of trouble to make himself familiar with the requirements, was unable, through illness in his family, to accompany them, but Mr. J. A. Barron and Captain Crandell, the other two members of the legally appointed deputation. took the precaution, as business men should, to inform them- selves with facts and figures which enabled them to successfully accomplish what they undertook. With their know- ledge at what was required they with the assistance of Mr. Geo. McHugh, M.P., Mr. H. O’Leary. Mr Jas. Graham and Mr. R. J. McLaughlin, were able to con- vince the minister of railways and canals that the work was an absolute necessity, and resulted in Mr. Blair instructing Engineer Rogers to examine the river and make an immediate estimate of the cost. so that the amount necessary cculd be placed in the year’s estimates. in the face of this the iunketers had the audacity to stand up in council at its last meeting and claim the credit of such prompt action on the part of the minister of railways and canals. They had not the suflicient gumption to perceive by the treatment accorded them that they were an unwelcome addition to the deputation; the fact that not a single one of them was asked for any information regarding the matter and that none of them were asked to speak in reference to it, ought to have; been suflicient to prove to them that they were admitted under sufl'erance, and their presence was more detrimental than ‘ otherwise. If the town council had been the pro- meters of the scheme there would have been a reasonable’excuse for their action, but they were not; they had nothing whatever to do with it, but being the otiicial body of the town they were asked to memorialize the government as the representatives of the ratepayers and to pay the expenses of a small deputation to Ottawa. To this they consented agree- ably enough, and received the unanimous approval of the ratepayers for so doing ; but when they undertook to thrust them- selves forward and attempt to steal the credit of the grant from the actual pro- moters they exceeded their duty and for so doing their action in this respect is not above suspicion, and is very 'properly condemned by the ratepayers at large.
