E. Cartwright, of Pickering, found that Miss Carpen- tier came to her death by being thown from the car in which she was riding, which was driven by F. A. Brown of Toronto, and which collided with a telephone pole on the south side of the Highway. According to the verdict, the accident occurred through the fatigue of the driver, dulling his sense of perception. The inquest had been postponed for some time, owing to the prolonged confine- ment in the Hospital of Brown, who badly injured in the accident. seeatasinnin MRS. JOSEPH BAIRD, 1853-1923 At the family residence Manchest- er, on the morning of September bth, Matilda Kenning, wife of Joseph Baird passed peacefully away. Mrs. Baird's parents, Robert Ken- ning and Margaret Walker, came to this country from Ireland, early in the last century, and were among the pioneer settlers of .Waterloo County, near what is now the town of Elmira. Matilda Kenning Baird was one of sixteen children, only four of whom survive her viz. Dr. Herbert Kenning of Willobough, Ohio; Dr. Thomas Kenning, of Detroit, Mich.; Mrs. W. J. Knowles, of Buffalo; and Miss Martha Kenning, of Cleveland, Ohio. On March 12, 1879, she was mar- ried to Joseph Baird, and to them was born one son, Herbert Kenning Baird, Manager of the Bank of Com- merce, Sherbrooke, Sask. . Mr. and Mrs. Baird's first home was on the farm west of Manchester now occupied by Mr. Spencer. They lived there for six years, moving then to Manchester where they have continuously resided since. For sonsiderable time Mrs. Baird had not enjoyed her usual health. Friends noticed that she was failing, but it was not until August 24th that her condition was considered serious. She lingered until Wednesday morn- ing, September 6th, when she passed peacefully away. Mrs. Baird was a kind neighbour, a faithful friend, in short she was a true gentle woman in all the rela- tions of life, and will be deeply mis- sed, not only by her own immediate family, but by a large circle of friends and acquaintances to whom she had endeared herself by her: gen- tle helpful life. In religion she was Presbyterian, being a loyal consistent member of St. John's Presbyterian Church, Port Perry. The funeral service, held at the family home, Manchester on Satur- day, September 8th, were conducted by her minister, Rev. John T. Hall, of Port Perry. Interment took place in Pine Grove Cemetery, Prince Al- bert. ------e(Q Ore HOUSE FOR SALE Eight roomed frame house on Lilla St., Port Perry, double lot. Proper- ty in fine condition.

Signed on behalf of the family, Miss Emma Henry and Mrs E. Hance ten) meine OBITUARY The late Thomas Henry was born in Darlington Township in 1841 and came with his parents to Scugog Is- land at the age of ten years, remain- ing there until he grew to manhood. At the age of twenty-one he was united in marriage to Miss Sarah Ann Dent, who predeceased him 24 years ago. A few years after his marriage he started farming in the Township of Reach, and five years later they moved to Brock, re- maining there for six years, From there he moved back to Scugog in 1876 having purchased the farm pre- voiusly owned by hi which he remained until x He was a hard working, industrious man and knew something of the hardships of clearing the forest land, as the Island was mostly a wilderness 72 years ago; and the work had to be done with oxen. The only access to, Port Perry was by boat or scow. The late Mr. Henry was a man of strong Christian character, serving always to do the will of the Lord; and being of a quiet, retiring dispo- sition it enabled him to life at peace with all men. He was a kind and obliging neighbour, a devoted hus- band and a loving and indulgent father. He bore his painful illness with great patience and Christian fortitude and his last words were a prayer to his God. He leaves to mourn his loss, four daughters, Miss Emma at home, Mrs. John Swan, Port Perry, Mrs. Bertha Sweetman and Mrs. E. Hance, of Scugog; three grand children, Mrs. Leslie Wilson, of Port Perry; Mr. Elmer Sweetman, and Master Len. Hance, of Secugog. 000 SCUGOG CENTRE Owing to unforseen circumstances it has been found necessary to secure the Brownscombe Girls, of Uxbridge, in the place of the Hawaiian Orches- tra of Whitby.
