Soon after the suggestion was made there were about 30 Boy Scouts from Timmins and Schumacher gathâ€" ered at the town hall here, with their Scoutmasters and other officers, and all ready for effective search work. In the meantime it had been learned that the missing man had been at Miller Lake, past Dalton‘s farm, instead of in the Wealthy Lake area, and word was recived that Mr. Wojciechowski had safely reached home.

In Keighley at present also there are two Noahs, and there have beeen others with such names as Tamar, Zillah, Keturah, Obaâ€" diah, Micah and Gamaliel. "We had a family living here," he adds, "the children of which were called Matthias Abia, Melissa, Kezia and Priscilla. The members of another family, at Oakâ€" worth, were called Dan, Gad, Nun and Cos,. A former mayor of the town had the Christian name of Shem, and his two brothers were called Jacob and Japheth." On the subject of obscure Biblical Christian names an Askrigg corresponâ€" dent sends a selection from the regisâ€" ter of St. Oswald‘s Church, Askriggâ€" including Peninnah, aged 19, in Novemâ€" ber, 1859, a daughter of John and Mary Shaw of Askrigg. Their other daughâ€" ters were called Flizabeth, Azubah. Zillah and Shelometh, They also had a son called Jabin. Pickering can also claim a Hephzibah who was buried there 60 *‘or 70 years ago. The reference is to the queen of Hezekiah. The most formidable name yet struck is one which is to be found in Pickering Parish Church where in Novâ€" ember, 1852, one Kerenâ€"happuch Dowâ€" son was buried. The original Kerenâ€" happuch was one of the three daughâ€" ters of Job,. One of the other daughters was just plain Jemima which excessive use has robbed of its dignified Biblical sound. It is a happy thing for the very young generation now being born into this wicked world of ours that the habit of awarding obscure Biblical names at christenings is now dying out, notes a writer in the Yorkshire Post, commentâ€" ing on the fact that Phyllis Bentley is inquiring the whereabouts of a Yorkâ€" shire village gravestone bearing the name Penninah. The original Penninah was one of the two wives of Elkanah (1.Sam.) Old Yorkshire People Had Odd Biblical Names (Torouto Telegram) It is of interest to recall the exact nvessuge which Rt. Hon. R. L.
