Wilson and his party, consisting of Harry Presâ€" ton and others, were living in the T. N. O. camps at Driftwood, now Monâ€" teith. From this place they hauled their S se i k cX our twenty yea: another. Mr. O‘ and a real oldâ€"ti H supplies by dog team to Frederickhouse Danger of F Lake where they stored it in tents till the breakâ€"up arrived, and then proâ€" ceeded on the Porcupine. They arrivâ€" ed at Porcupine on the twelfth day of May. There were three Swedes at Freâ€" derickhouse and they knew us and agreed to watch our supplies. Harry Preston stopped with them for a few days after all the supplies were in the tents. While he was there a strong man arrived one day, carrying a big canoe from the railway track. Then he went back for his pack and outfit, and returning hs put up his tent near us and I asked his name he said it was O‘Grady. He told me he was going to stop till the ite broke up and then he was going right through to the Matâ€" tagami river, thence northward to the Grand Trunk Pacific He complained of not feeling well, so I gave him a botâ€" tle of painkiller which fixed him up O.K. When the ics began to break up, we hustled over with canses and were met by Tom Fox and other Indians and preceeded on to Porcupine. Mr .O‘â€" Grady had just gone ahsad the day beâ€" fore us and on our way in we noticed two places where he had made his bed for the night, one being at South Porâ€" cupine portage. Just think how Mr. O‘Grady paddled right past Hollinger, Mcintyre and other mines, just as others didâ€" years before, and did not know there were great gold mines beâ€" neath! I believe it is the same toâ€"day; that not far from Timmins there are great gold mines that men are walking over or passing alongside.

Last week The Advance had a brief reference to the death of E. N. O‘Grady, fire ranger, and formerly fire chief for the Abitibi Power Paper Co. Noting the mention of the sad death, Harry A.

SATURDAY, JAN. 18th, at 9 p.m. Matheson, Jan. 10th, 1930 WELSH CHORAL SOCIETY Club Royal Orchestra green wood for heating purposes in cases where the chimneys become blocked and gases thus are given off in houses closed at night. The chief says that he knows of several cases in town recently where families had narrow escapes from carbon monoxide poisonâ€" ing arising from the use of green wood and the blocking of chimneys which caused the gases to circulate through the houses at night. In the cases reâ€" ferred to nosthing worse then serious heajaches were suffered as there was a window opan somewhere in the house that allowed the entry of pure air. In one case whoere a whole family weare about prostrated with severe headaches in the morning, the trouble was directâ€" ly traced to the chimney being more or less blocked and gases formed from the green wood burned permeating the house, An open window prevented what the chief believes would otherâ€" wise have been a certain tragedy. Thse trouble in this particular case was easily remedied by calling in the chimâ€" ney sweep who found the chimney just about chocked up, and the result being that the poisonous gases were backins into the rooms. It would appear that it would be worth while for all houseâ€" ho‘!lders to watch this matter, especially in the very cold weather whenr there is a tendency general to keep rooms too close at night.
