She was as happy Saturday night as she was always, but when she realized the end was near, notified those at her home that she had but a few hours to live. Born at Hampton Born at Hampton, Ontario. the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Law, pioneers of the Hampton district, Mrs. Michael moved to Harmony on the occasion of her marriage.

RAGLAN MAN Iy GIVER WARN'NG BY MAGISTRATE Intimidation of Girl Friend Results in His Appear- ance in Court Arraigned on a charge of intimi- dation, Walter Ormiston, of Rag- lan, was given a severe warning by Magistrate Willis of Whitby, in po- lice court this morning and told "to go his way and don't let it hap- pen again." He will pay the court costs of $16.40, however. It appears from the evidence pro- duced that Ormiston had had a quarrel with his lady friend, who seemed to think that he wag all to blame. At any rate, Ormiston told her that unless they made up again, which she seemed to have resented doing, he would '"do away with both of them." She beiing appar- ently frightened and in order to escape her wrathful lover, remain- ed away from home for several nights. The family, fearful that something had happened to her in- quired into the real circumstances of the case and in the end laid the information at their command into the hands of the police. The police, believing that a gr=z282 3a or something of that description was about to take place, immediately arrested Ormiston and his appear- ance in court this morning was ultimate result of the aff«'r. "You are a young man," said His Worship to the prisoner "and now is the time for you to make some- thing of yourself, I'm going to give you a chance to make good." His Worship remarked that he didn't want to hear of anything of this sort again. "There are too many young people taking the law into their own hands," he declared.

Ernest Harston Deliver ed Inspiring Address to Large Congregation -- --Parde a Feature of Anniversary Service TRIBUTE PAID TO LATE ROBT. JAMES Was Instrumental in Bring- ing Service to a Success- ful Climax -- Sermon. Given on "The Three Li nks"' Five hundred strong, members of local and visiting lodges 1.0.0.F, yes- terday afternoon participated in their annual parade to Simcoe Street Unit ed Church where they commemorat- ed the one hundred and tenth amni- versary of the founding of the order. Forming into marching order "in front of the lodge rooms, in the cen- ter of the city, the whole company paraded south on Simcoe street to the church where the members filed into the reserved section of the audi- torium. A large mumber of citizens also attended the service which prov- ed to be a most impressive one. The lodges which were represented at the service were Cantons, Numbers 7and 10 from Toronto, Th. Cerinth- ian Lodge No. 61, Phoenix Lodge No. 22, Ontario Encampment No. 11, Rebekah Lodge No. 3, and' the Sun- shine Rebekah Lodge No. 222, Fol- lowing the scrvice the whole com- pany went to the lodge rooms where a full course dinner was served. Before entering upon the theme of his sermon proper for the occasion, Rev. Ernest Harston, pastor of the church, paid tribute in a few well chosen remarks to the late Robert James, who was onc of the most prominent members of the Corinthian odge. 1.0.0.F. before he died just last week. "The man who was most instru- mental in bringing this service to the church today," said Mr. Harston, referring to the late Mr. James, "has. passed to the Great Beyond, and therefore the service to me carries with it a more sacred meaning. It is expedient that we should gather together at such a time bearing in our minds the thought that a brother and' a Christian who but a week ago was amongst us, has now been taken away." Mr. Harston chose for the text of his sermon the "Three Golden Links" the real significance of which is the! foundation upon which the Indepen- dent Order of Oddfellows is built, Love, friendship and truth. These, said Mr. Harston, were the interpreé= tations of the meanings for which the links stand. Truth, he said was an expression we all knew the signi« ficance of, and was a great thing upon which to build an order such as the 1.O.OF. "Love, the greatest characteristic a man may possess is a direct out- come of the second word, friendship," declared the speaker. "For when may one have love and not friend- ship? Friendship is perhaps the most abused word in the language. It is also the most confused. The true meaning of friendship has deter= jorated since the time of the Old Testament, when friendship was . a binding of the heart, and the soul. Mr. Harston pointed out that fidel- ity and constancy were the real sub- stances of the word friendship and not until these two have been found to exist where friendship is supposed to be, will true lo make itseli known.
