Mrs. Lawrence, who was formerly Eleanor Moore, a daughter of the late Mr and Mrs. Joseph Moore, was born at Palermo on the Dundas hlgh-l way in 1847. She came with her parâ€"| ents to Egremont when about ten years of age, and settled near Droâ€" more. On February 5th, 1863, she beâ€" came the bride of Mr. William Lawâ€" rence and they began homemaking on the Lake Line, Egremont. There they resided until they retired from . farming. When they came to Durâ€" ham they made their home on Bruce Street, where Mr. Lawrence died some years ago. Since then Mrs. Lawrence has made her home with her daughter, Mrs Macdonald. Until a year ago Mrs Lawrence took acâ€", live part in the household tasks and | never lost her interest in her famâ€"‘ ily and ncighbors. | She is survived by one son J. H. Williams of Eldersley, Sask., and 3 daughters, Mrs. John Wilson, (Caroâ€" line), Mrs. John Byers (Martha), Mrs. W. J. Alexander (Edith) all of Tisdale.

Macdonald, on Bruce St., Durham. Hers was no particular illness, but rather the life forces ceasing to function to permit life. She was 88 years of age, and such a full life of good deeds and works, can not be regretted in her passing. PRESBYTERIANS HOLD For over an hour, as the latter half of the program, Rev. Mr Gowâ€" dy gave a fine lecture on Ireland, i}â€" lustrated by a map of that island. and over 50 lantern views. _ These depicted Irish scenery, castles, etc., commencing a tour. from Drogheda MRS. WILLIAM LAWRENCE THE ROLL CALL Durham Victors Over Acton 9â€"4 Che Bur IRISH SOCIAL The Acton rink was jammed for the first time this season, the crowd being estimated at 1700 with approxâ€" imately 125 from Durham. There were 1558 paid admissions. This Durâ€" ham . lineup are getting to be a great drawing card anywhere thro‘ out Westorn Ontario. _ After revealing nothing more than a fair brand of hockey here, many | in and out of town doemed that the locals would be overthrown in Acâ€" ton on soft ice, with but a goal lead to rely on, but the players believed otherwise. They sensed another vicâ€" tory, and their game justified their ideas. | The second period saw referee Talbot start the penalties. Acton %reallzed‘ Elvidge‘s dangerous shots, and N. Morton took a penalty for itrlpping him and Marzo for boarding , him, when he had broken through. :Wilson drew Durham‘s only penalty in this frame, but more than reâ€" |\ deemed himself in the steady defenâ€" !slve game he displayed. Raybould | was a tower of strength at centre. | foiling numerous plays with his sweeping poke check. McGirr turned ii" one of the best games of his carâ€" | eer on defence, time and again clearâ€" :mg the puck out of danger in Acâ€" iton‘s determined attacks. Both goalâ€" les were warding off some speeding < drives and after 18% min. play, Mcâ€" Girr was again the hero when his smart rush and pass to Elvidge unâ€" | covered on wing, made it 2â€"0 for Durham. Elvidge made no mistake | about it. | Towards end of 2nd a donnybrook scrap developed at north end of rink inml fortunately there were no worse casualties than a couple black eyes. | Five police quelled the disturbance | between the periods. | | With Durham 3 up on round, Acton threw caution aside to start third period, and things happened fast. Durbam pressed also, instead of fallâ€" ‘ing on defensive. Raybould‘s bullet ‘\drive hit the goal post and when . Currie broke through clear, Walters threw his stick to save a goal, and | drew a 5 min. rest. A faceâ€"off in front of the nets saw Currie land | puck in nets on the draw, for No. 3, and N. Morton of Acton, was next off for slashing. Durham‘s power | play with 5 men to 3, brought a shower of pucks on Greer. Raybould |tried to score and did from a scramâ€" . ble, but he was in goal crease and it was disallowed. Then a Currie to | Raybould to Elvidge play mado Greer | flop to save, but Elvidge lifted the |puck over him into the nets for No. |‘4. Erben Schutz sailed right in but JGroer blocked his hard drive. Acâ€" ton‘s rushes at last bore fruit when | Joe Kentner, after Huffman‘s pass |tomd past two Durhams, and beat Scbutz after 10 min. play.. Walters ldm last Acton penaity for tripping Systematic team play on the ice sheet provided, was lacking to a great extent, nevertheless the first period at least revealed some fast work, und several nice plays stuck out, some of which brought tallies. Considering the sticky ice, that first period saw some speedy hockey, 5â€"1 Durham win in Acton was Surprise Package There was no fluke about that win; Durham displayed a power and supâ€" eriority which the Acton team and crowd realized by the end of the 1st period. As the first game here endâ€" ed a 4â€"3 Durham victory, Acton was eliminated by a score of 9 to 4 on the round. ic~, and surprised the hockey critics and wiseâ€"heads throughout Westlern Ontario, many of whoin figured Acâ€" ton as one of the finalists, probably against Whitby. Defeating the Acton Tanners 5â€"1 on their own ice on Monday night, Durkam‘s onâ€"rushing O.H.A. team surprised themselves and the town by their mide margin gained on so[t With which is incorporated the Holstein leacer In Third Round 0. H. A. Playâ€"Downs DURHAM, THURSDAY, MAR. 14, 1935 Before another packed rink last Friday night, Durham took a hardâ€" fought game from Acton here by 4 to 3, the first of ~Durham‘s third round, and Acton‘s second, in O.H. A Int. B. semiâ€"finals. Acton is said to be the team to beat for the title, and a 1 goal lead is small enough margin. Durham did not play as effective & game as they did against Owen Sound. Possibly the Acton checking was tighter, but at any rate the locals plays seldom clicked to advantage, though every goal scored was the result of good team play, while 2 of Acton‘s 3 wore sloppy. Again Elvidge, with 3 goals was the scoring ace, but his teamâ€"mates who made the plays for him deserve equal credit. While Durâ€" ham has many effective goalâ€"getters on its two forward lines, there is no one with more accurate aim, or who will beat the opposing goalie more frequently than this same Elvidge. Early in 2nd, N. Morton took a rest for tripping Schutz and a Durâ€" ham ganging play, Schutz to Rayâ€" bould to Elvidge produced the tying goal,. Terry broke through alone, and Ries took a penalty for tripping him. Raybould‘s nifty stick handling carâ€" ried him through to defence, when a neat pass to Dean notched Durham‘s 3rd. Down the boards N. Morton was viciously buttâ€"ending Currie. After the third jab, Currie lit into him with his fists and a scrap was on. A couple of others landed a few swings before referee Wortley and others restored peace. Morton and Currie each took a 5 minute sentcnâ€" co. Joe Raybould missed an open goal and Walters of Acton was hurt when he crashed into boards. Score 3â€"2 for Durham. Acton showed a team which could match Durham with speed, with shifâ€" ty performers like the two Mortons and Walters, and a rugged defence in Jno. Kentner and Gibbons. They staged many dangerous attacks. Clearing a rebound from ‘back of nets> Jack Schuts gave Acton the tying goal when he shoved puck aâ€" cross the line with his skate. Referee Wortley thus ruled, though Durham team and the goal umpire disputed the goal, claiming it had never crossâ€" Acton: Goal, Greer; defence, Gibâ€" bons, John Kentner; centre, N.

We are not in Miss Macpbail‘s riding and so are not entitled to her weekly letters, but we read them in some of our exchangeggand wrote asking that we might be favored with them, and she very kindly complied, and now we are on her reguilar mailing list. We find it much easier to read her sumâ€" mary of the week‘s nows than to peruse Hansard. We may not always agree with her, but at least her summary of the Federal members is refrcshing. Like many otaers she cannot swallow the sudden activity of the Prime Minister, who has made such a right about face in the principles of the Conservative Party. It savors too much of beforeâ€"theâ€"elâ€" cetion propaganda. On the other hand, it has certainly been a bombâ€" shell to MacKenzie King, who beâ€" lieved that his party was sitting pretty and ready to step up without much effort.

Round Erin led at end of first frame 2â€"1, and 4â€"2 at end of second, MceGirr and Moon scoring for Durham. In the third Erin added 2 more, but Durham went on a scoring splurge and tallied 5 to finish 1 ahead on the game. Orval McDonalid was the big noise, scoring 4 of the Durham‘s 5, while Bert Lawrence took the other one. Joe Raybould was the referee. Chesley need not grieve over elâ€" imination by Durham, when they thought they could order the W.O. H.A. executive to come to their terms, and later rcalized they had "pulled a boner." Chesley would have lost out to Erin the same as Durâ€" ham, as this Erin crew on ho&e ice are unbeatable by any team. Last Thursday night hore, in the last game of the W.0O.H.A. semiâ€" finals with Erin, Durham won out 71 to 6, after coming from behind in a whirlwind third period finish. That 11â€"0 sheilacing Durham suffered in Erin two days previously however, blasted all hopes for the round, which Erin took by 17â€"7, and adâ€" vanced against Clinton in the semiâ€" finals. Durham however is stil 1 going strong, with its first tcam in the O. H. A., and all local interest is now centred in them. Clinton 5, Durham 4, was the score in Clinton Wednesday night, of the first game in Durham‘s fourth round Int. O.H.A. semiâ€"finals.
