Some weeks ago the late Charles Dalâ€" ton was taken ill with a severe cold, but apparently reccvered and was around again in his useful cheerful and friendly way. Akout two weeks ago h2 was again taken ill and this time the malady was diagnosed as influenza. Every possible care and attention was given; two nurses beingz constantly in attendance, and a noted specialist, Dr. Gallic, of Toronto, being summoned here in addition to the lozal physicians. All that medical skill could do proved unavailing. The late Chas. Dalton was a son of the late Michael Dalton who died here in 1917. At the time of death the late Chas. Dalton was 34 years of age.

In afiâ€" dition to the bereaved husband (who has since passed. away) there were three children left to mourn the loss of a gosd mother. To these The Adâ€" vance extended its dsepest sympathy. The funeral tock plazse on Monday, Feb. 23rd, 1920, to the Timmins comeâ€" tery, and the many expressions of sorâ€" rew and regret, together with the numâ€" ercous and beautiful floral tributes, showed the high r°gard in which Mrs. Fields was held4. Ancther popular and hignlyâ€"esteemâ€" ed resident of the camp to pass away twenty years ago was Mrs. Wm. Fields. This death cecurred on Sunday, Feb. 22nd, 192¢, after an illness of only three hours. While Mrs. Fields had been inâ€" dispoased for a few days she had not been kept to her bed until two c‘clock on the Sunday. Then despits all that skill and care could do she passed awiy. Death was due to influenza. The late Mrs. Fields was a native of Glouâ€" sestershire, England, and was only 32 years at the time of deati. Her mother Still another death in the camp twenty years ago was that of W. P. Black, of Scuth Porcupine, who passed, away after a brief illness. Death folâ€" lowed an attack of influenza. In re-! ferring to the deatii The Advance said| in part:â€""The news of his death was received with very general and sincere regret throughsut the whole camp, for Bill Black, as he was affectionately known to his friends here, was one of the nmiost pouplar and highlyâ€"esteemed c the cldâ€"timers of the district. He was one of the first of the businsss men of the Porcupine, conducting a tailcring establishment at South Porcupine in the early days, and winning friends on all sides ky his integrity and friendâ€" ly disposition. He tcok an active and intelligent interest in public affairs, while in sporting circles, especially in football, he was one of the leaders. He will be much missed in many circles, He was sne of the wellâ€"nown and4 popular football enthusiasts sf the North Land. Last year he was prominent not only on the executive of th»> Porcupineâ€"Domg club, but also in the of the N:rthern Ontario FcSsiball Asscziation. He gave good service some years ago as one of the souncillors ci the ship of Tisdale. He was born at Carâ€" luke, and at the time of h‘is death he was 33 years old.

To these the sympathy of the entire community goes out at this tims. The late Charles Dalton was one cfi the real ploneeors 3 this district. BRefore there was any town of Timmins he and his borther John ran a stage from South Porcupia2 to Mattagami as early as 1911. He tock an active interest in public affairs and for one year was councillor of the town cf Timmins. While in the ccursil he coired a phrase that achieved perâ€" manent popularity. When the council was puzzled by some perplexing pr>â€" blem, Charlie would solve it ky saying: ‘Let her go as she looks.‘ The humorsus expression became the watchword for getting along with business. The reâ€" mains of the late Charles Dailton were taken south on Tuesday for interment, John Daltonâ€"gcing down with the reâ€" mains. The Krights of Columbus, cof which the deceased was a member, acâ€" eccmpanied the cortage to the staticn here. Interment will be made at the old home in Goderiâ€"ch." | Timmins‘ "Occasicnal _ enquiries concerning deep gold minss reach this office and in partictlar there seems to be a perâ€" sistent interest in the old John del Rey mire in Brazil. A recent review of this anciznt prciducer discloses the reâ€" markable tenacity of life whaich it has displayed.
