U 1 1 18 10 0 1 e EC C Cb 5 iA CA C t t t n 5 tC Word from South Porcupine this week says that the whole community was deeply grieved on Tuesday morning to hear of the sudden death of Patrick Joseph Barry, a wellâ€"known figure in the life of South Poreupine and the Dome and also having many friends in Timinins and district. Until a week ago he was one of the underground shift bosses at the Dime Mines. The late Mr. Barry was 34 years of age at the time of death. He served with the 105th â€" Battalion. Overseas he was transferred to the Second Machine Gun Corps. He enlisted at Charlottestown, Prince Edward Island in 1915 and saw four years of service in France and Belâ€" gium. He was severely wounded at thei base of the skuill with fragments shrapnel, portions cocf which were not removable cwing to the extreme risk of operating. The presence of the| shrapnel caused continuous severe headaches which sceemed to increase in Trequency and severity as time went on. Recently he told friends that doctors had informed him that while the shapâ€" nel could not be removed by surgical skill, the injury was liable to prove fatal at any time if the piece of shapâ€" nel penetrated to the brain in a cerâ€" tain way, while cn thg other hand the mcvement of the shrapnel might reâ€" sult in the loss of sanity. It is believed that the recurring headaches and the belief that he was faced with an ineviâ€" table fate of death or worse preyed on his mind and brought him to a mental state in which lhis ended his life. On Monday it seems that he purchased a phial of carbolic acid and took a room at the Maple Leaf hotel. The inmate the adjoining rocm hearing strange sounds from Mr. Barry‘s room attemptâ€" ed to investiszsate but found the dacor locked and ccould get no answer from repcated calls and knocks. The Chinese proprietor cf the hotel called in Conâ€" stable W. Brooks, who looked through the transom and was convinced that the man was dead. Dr. McLaren was called in and the door being forced in the meantiume it â€"was found that Mr. Barry was doad. After enquiry into the circumstances the csroner decided that an inaquest with a jury was not necessary, the facts being evident. The late Mr. Barry liad been a member of the Canadian Legion and his fellow reâ€" turned men were deeply grieved at his death. The late Mr. Barrty was unâ€" married.. His home was in Prince Edâ€" ward Island, though he had been in the Porcupine area for several years. A brother is the only near relative known to friends in this district. The funcral took place on Wednesday of this week from S. T. Walker‘s unâ€" dertaking parlours.

The sending of a grant to the Legion Campaign fund caused quite a lot of very interesting remarks.
