It was in 1906 that he came with his broâ€" thers, Angus and Duncan, and their mother, to Haileybury where his home has been since taat time. He was a son of the late Donald McNabb and Jane Mackey, pioneer residents of Pakenham township, and was of Scottish descent. brother, Angus, and a sister Mrs. John A Graham of Toronto are the other surviving members of his family. He had many friends throughout the disâ€" trict who all extend their sympathy. The funeral was held on Monday afâ€" ternoon, with the service in the home conducted by Rev. A. P. Addiym of the United Church and interment in Mount Fleasant Cemetery. Pallbearers, all old friends were: Messrs Bert Page, Hugh Ross, John Armstrong, Jos. Young, Chas: Price and John Belland. Those who came from out of town for the funeral included Mrs. Graham of Toronto; Arâ€" thur Young, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Gorr, Jame:; Hutson, Alex Steele, W. W. Craig and Wm1 ‘Sole, all of North Bay and Gordon Martin of Kirkland Lake. In the North the late Mr. McNabb, with his brothers, went in for prosâ€" pecting, carrying on operations throughâ€" out the Cobalt and Lorrain areas and the Porcupine district. For a time he had been to Patricia district on similar work. Sometimes their efforts brought a measure of success, other times they laboured in vain but the search for minerals comprised the greater part of their activities for many yeatrs. Six years ago Mr. McNabb was marâ€" ried in Haileybury to the former Mrs G. Sutherland, who survives him,. One brother, Angus, and a sister Mrs. John A Graham of Toronto are the other (From The Haileyburian) After an illiness of some two years‘ duration, David Mackey McNabb, well known prospector for many years in the North, passed away at his home on Blackwall street here on Thursday night last, Feb. l7th.. For six months past he had been confined to his bed and his death was not unexpected. Alex Leclerc,, O.P.A. secretaryâ€"treasâ€" urer of the town of Rouyn for the past six and a half years, has resigned that office in protest against the move of council and the mayor at the meeting two members of the Rouyn town office as an economy measure. In view of the resignation of tire secretaryâ€"treasurer, the services of one of the employees asszed to resign, Miss Bellehumeur A member of the staff for four years, will be retained, while G. Beauchemin, an employee of the town of Rouyn for five years, will be given the position of secâ€" retaryâ€"treasurer. It is claimed that tae new arrangements will save the town of Rouyn some $6,000.00 per year. Anâ€" other move o‘ the Rouyn council is"to place a time clock in the police office for the use of all town employees under the supervision of the chief of police. There were four members of the town council and the mayr at the meeting whoen the resignations were requested, two of the council dissenting from the proposal.

"The Advance noted twenty years ago that W. Martin, the noted Porcupine dog team driver, was in fifth place in the big race at Quebec, dropping out on the ‘first day as he found conditions much different to what he had expected and promises made him not being fulâ€" filled. He found that the race at Queâ€" bee was not conducted with the same fairness shown in the Porcupine Dog Race and in justice to himself and his dogs thought it best to drop out of the contest. At the town council meeting twenty years ago there was considerable busiâ€" nes! dealt with. A number of routine byâ€"laws dealing with the appointment of various town officers for the year were first dealt with. Twentyâ€"six new street lights were ordered installed. I was decided to submit a byâ€"law to the people for the purchase of a $12,000 chemical fire truck with motor equipâ€" ment. J. P.

Some of the vocalists on the programme were unâ€" able to be present, but at the last minâ€" ute others; were secured and the proâ€" cramme throughcut was well worth while. The selections by the Timmius Citizens‘ Band were of themselves a |genuine treat to all lovers of good music. L There were five specially wellâ€"rendered inumbers by the band, and Bandmaster Wolno and his capable band were geiiâ€" |nrally given much credit for, their good work. ‘Comment wasy made on the steady improvement shown by the band as well as the increase in Ssize and taâ€" tlent.
