The Advance ten years ago said:â€" "A quiet but pretty wedding took place at St. Matthew‘s rectory on Saturday, April 2nd, when Rev. R. S.

The Advance said that the most of peoâ€" ple would "hae their doots‘"‘ about there being coal near Sudbury, but all would wish the hopeful fellows were right, as the North Land would receive unusual and striking impetus to greater deâ€" velorrnent and prosperity if a workable coal field were opened in or near the widespread borders of the North Land. _ _ Geo.
