Ontario The late Mr. Thomas Fleming. the] subject of this sketch. who died from ‘ pneumonia after a week’s illness on; the 29th of February at his home. Poplar Grove Farm, near Summer berry. Sask., was born at Mono Mills. Ont., on Feb. 2lst, 1846, and at the time of his death had just entered upon the 64th year of his age. | [His father. Thomas Fleming, was one of the pioneers in Ontario and moved into What was then known as the Owen Sound settlement. and took up his farm in the township of Egre- mont, South Grey, wi: h his five sons. his youngest son. Thomas, being three years of age. Before leaving for South Gre he took part in the Rebellion and shouldered his old â€"" w 'â€" "Queen Anne" musket and went from Mono Mi”; as one of the Militia in defence of his country. He was ar the battle of “outgomery’s north of Toronto on Yonge Street. when» the rebels were entlrely routed. These pioneers of Ontario built the first school in the township, out down the furflsts and prospered. when the At that time the C P R. was built only as far as Brandon. These pio- neers unloaded their cars and con. tents. hitched their horses to their wagons, like wise men they had brought with them. and drove on till they found prairie broad enOUgh and unoccupied for the four brothers and Others of their friends to settle on. When Mr. Fleming first put his old Ontario plow into the prairie soil he was able to turn cver two acres a day. which. compared with the "time that it took his pioneer in Ontario to get two acres of bush cut down. burned, logged up. and prepared for seed, seemed to the son, the second pioneer, but child’s play. He was only three years in the country when the Riel Rebellion broke out in the Spring of 1885 The Fleming family and their friends at once formed a companv, obtained; arms from the Government and stood ready to defend their settlement against the Indians who were in a sulky mood on the reserves near by. Mr. Fleming himSelf with his team went to the aid of the Government .n conveying the soldiers and their munitions of war from Swift Current to Battleford, and rendered valuable service in quelling the rebellion and Lretaining this country under the l British flag. His sons have caught the Spirit of their father. for the youngest, Stanley, is at present a member of the Sixteenth Mounted Rifles and took part in the military praCtiee of the camp held in June last. Mr. F. was elected as a member of the first Municipal Council in' 1888, and continued to give service to the same while the Council continued to exist. He took an active part in the and dml‘ were» IOId Timer Passes Awai- IN MEMORIAM- THE DURHAM CHRONICLE formstion of the first school in the Summer Hill district in the year 1885 and continued to be 3 trustee and mostly Secretary Treasurer until the time of his death. Mr. Fleming had joined the Loyal Orange Association in early life in Ontario, and he and his brothers. allj Orangemen. formed the first Orange Lodge. No. 1525, in the home of the late Samuel Fleming in the year 1883. This Lodge continues to prosper, and for a rural lodge is not only largest in membership. but also one of the oldest in Saskatchewan and is known as the Pioneer Lodge. Mr. Fleming not only filled the position of sec'e~ tary and master of his own lodge. but was elected county masser and Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Saskatchewan, and as such was a delegate representative to the Grand Lodge of British North America in Toronto in 1906. ’ Mr. Fleming was a loyal son of the Methodist church. and the next sum-i mer after his arrival in the west, the Methodist church was established in, the home of his brother, the latel Samuel Fleming. in 1383 He was, Steward and secretary treasurer in} the church for a quarter of a century, ; and attended and took part in thef North WeSt Conferance held in \Vin-i nipeg in June 1901. Rev. Mr Good-; win, at the funeral service in the‘ home, spoke feeli‘lgiy and appropri-f ately of the loss the church had sustained in the death of their dear‘ brother. Refs-ring to the words of. Jesus, " Well done Good and Faithful; Servant,” he regarded his hr0ther asI good in the highes: sense, in hisl estimable character. as manifested inl his home, public life and the churcb,l for in a very Special manner he was; faithful to the various trusts imposed: upon him His testimony for Christ' was clear and consistent and his life} was much honored It was no: trouble for such a man who loved his! church and his Saviour to obtainf money for the minister’s stipend and to build the fine Stone church which to day is a prominent feature of Summerherry. He told the writer of this sketch himself that his mini- ster was paid monthly He gave liberally himself and went with the eXpeCtation that Others would give, and simply get it. The man and the canes were sufficient to obtain the _ means even in hard years. He and ‘ his family took an active part in the service of praise and in the Sunday School, am} for these services he was justly held in high eSteem by all the members of the church. During a quarter of a century resi- dent in Summerberry he added sec- tion to section of land, and at the time of his death was in comfortable circumstances. He was married in Ontario on July 4th. 1866. to Sophia Jane McKenzie She was but eighteen and her bus-y band twenty-one. They were very‘ much attached to each other in life and their afiections deepened as the years passed on. His wife and nine children, six sons and three daugh- ters, survive him to mourn the loss of a loving husband and father. Four of the sons are in business George and Benjamin in Grenfell. John in Vancouver and Wm. in Summer erry Thomas on the farm and Stanley. Mary, Jemima and Lavina are at home. ' Dr. Argue. M.P.P., who called in Dr. Cook, of Wolseley. on a consul- tation, attended Mr. Fleming during his illness. and remained at the bed side from Wednesday to Saturday, when he passed away. A weak heart, brought on by a previous attack of rheumatism, made it quite impossible to com with the fell disease pneumonia, and the Master’s call was obeyed. and a square, com- pass and working tools of the earthly life were laid aside, and His servant was taken to the activity of a higher plane and of a higher life above Avery large concourse of peOplei assembled on Monday, the second of March, at his home to see their brother laid in his last resting place Rev. Mr: Goodwin and Mr. Graves of the Methodist church, assisted by Rev. Stewart Acheson, Presbyterian minister of Broadview and cousin to the deceased, conducted a short ser- vice at the home, and then, after a sad farewell. the procession formed and one hundred and seventeen con- ,veyances took friends, acquaintances and old timers from Sintaluta, Wolseley, Grenfell, Broadview and the surrounding country of Summer- berry. where, after the beautiful service of the Methodist church, the Orange order conducted their hopeful service. and after depositing the orange and blue mementos on the casket. they joined hands in that golden chain of love and said good bye, believing that chain of love was unbroken in Heaven.

This I found helpful in several cases of alleged vioiation 0' your By- law respecting Hawkeus and Pedlars. In one case, on receiving notice from the County Treasurer that. the By- law was violated by a tea pedlar in the vicinity of Boothville and Swin- ton Park. I asked the local omcers there to investigate the complaint and report to me. These officers. while not refusing to act. complained that their lTees in such cases were not suflicieut to reimburse them for theiri outlay of time and money to secure a conviction. They claimed that the reward ofiered by the Council prior to 1907. in addition to their fees. was noc too much to compensate them for the probable expense and trouble. and they asked that the Council again grant the reward formerly offered for the conviction of such offenders. I have pleasure. therefore. in making the request on their behalf and be lieve il (the reuard) is necessary. in order to make the Bylaw effective ’1 be case of Jacob Levine. a person suspecud of peddling without a lie ensmcame under my own personal observation.

[have reason to believe that many of them are slaughtered for human food and sold by the piece or quarter in the villages and towns in the County. This is a serious matter and, I am informed. endangers the lives of those using such beef as food So far as I am aware. the duties of the County Constables in such cases are not clearly defined in it and it might be advisable to amend the By- law so as to empower us to put a Stop astar as possible to what many d) ant hesitate to describe as a "Crim iinal Practice.” ugh-Constable Clark, in his Report to County Council. says Disenecl Heat is Sold for Humm Food.

Children that have been housed up all winter are brought out and you wonder where they all came from, The heavy winter clmhing is thrown aside and many shed their flannels.

Marshley went into the depot. ordered the operator out and took possession.

After a hard struggle, John Taylor, county constable, succeeded in plac- ing him under arrest and kept him under close guard all night.
