The sports are asking what will become of lacrosse and hockey when Jack Curran is gone. A prettier, pluckier or more gentle- manly player does not handle a stick in the C.L.A. and he has been the mainstav of the forward line in the hockey team.

He was born in 1833, and received l. is element- ary education from his father s tuition, -after which he went to college to study for the ministry. This was evidently not his eld, however, so he studied medicine, and `though he did not gradu- ate he attained a certain medical skill which was of much value to him in lateryears in alleviating the sufferings of the many sick at whose bedside he ministered. He came to Canada in 1855, and having some knowledge of surveying, assisted the late Mr. Cres- wicke in the Sunnidale township sur- vey. Subsequently he entered into partnership with Mr. Cox, in the grist milling business near Tollendal, and in connection with the grist mill erected a ne woollen mill. The whole property was burned several years afterwards, and Mr. Shapcott was a very heavy loser. Since then he was a benefactor to the whole community in nursing any person and every person, regardless of the circumstances of the sick or the nature of the disease. Can I do any good there I was his rst question, and ` if he thought he could, nothing in the way of disease or poverty could stop him. Such a good Samaritan is a very rare individual in these days, therefore this good man, Mr. Sbapcott, is lament- ed in many an humble home. V Being a sklltul and cheerful nurse, he was sought also by the wealthier classes. Hislast patient was the late Sir Cor- nelius Kortright.
