Mrs. Roy is not the owner or manager of the Lady Laurier Hotel. The Lady Laurier Hotel is now owned by a comâ€" pany, the «directors of which are reâ€" spâ€"nsible and important citizens of the town who are naturally averse to havâ€" ing the hotel linked up in any way in a court case with which it has no conâ€" nection. It is understood that Mrs. Roy has some stock in the company, and f:cm this fact the impression of ownrcrship arose. The Advance is pleasâ€" ed to make the correction that Mrs. Roy is not the owner or manager of the Lady Laurier, and regret is expressed for any annoyance that may have been felt by the directors or management of the hotel ty the inadvertent mistake Up to an early hour this afternoon all efforts had failed to locate the body of Daniel Dodge, 21â€"yearâ€"cld millionâ€" airs, who foll from his speedboat on the way to hospital and drowned in Georâ€" gian Bay Monday afternoon following a dynamite explosion that dangerously injured his wife, the former Lorecon MacDonald, of Gore Bay.
