rs pa a Say OT od 12 - PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, Dec 1, 1971 Seagrave News Long-time residents of Seagrave and her relatives living here were deeply shocked to hear of the sudden death of Mrs. Hugh Strong last week. We offer our sincere sympathy fo. all - at this time. This" past week was relatively quiet so' far as local activities were con- cerned. There was a euchre in the church basement on Friday evening but at- tendance was rather disappointing. The sharp players were Mrs. Venner and Bob Bruce, the loosers were Mrs. Belair and Bob Barr. With Christmas ac- tivities getting under 'way, it was decided to forget about euchres until after the holidays. On. Saturday several mothers and friendsattended the 4H Achievement Day in Uxbridge when the young ladies displayed the results of their year's work and their talents as commentators. Miss Hilda Bolling of our community received a county honours award. Congratulations Hilda. We still have a bit of interest too in 'Debbie Drinkwalter who talked about pies.
