meconnoehie a lifelong citizen of the locality that was tragic in its suddcnc s mr meconnoehie had been about town all day in his usual good health later in the afternoon he was assisting mr ross brovvn in leading a car of turnips when he felt ill leaving his work at the depot he was assisted by mervyn watts and blake sanders into the formers car complaining of only a sudden sickness about the stomach his assistants were confi dent it was only a passing spell but in the short space of running from the station to the meconnoehie home he passed away when medi cal aid arrived there was nothing to do but pronounce life extinct only an hour before the great call came mr meconnoehie was in the town clerks office talking jovially of the election death apparently being the farthest thought from him the news spread quickly over tiie community and the shock was a severe blow to a wide circle of friends david meconnoehie was raised on the old dougherty farm adjoining stouffville to the west on which place the large barn was blown down a few months ago a son of j the late james meconnoehie lie was reared a farmer and spent much of his life on this property he married lyda may daughter of the late mi and mrs itobt chappel to them were horn three children two sons being allan on the post office staff and root attending school the daughter daisey mrs samuel smith of toronto mr meconnoehie is also survived by two brothers john and robert both living in toronto to the family and the sorrowing widow sincere sympathy of the community is extended mr meconnoehie was 61 years of ago the funeral on sunday afternoon took place to stouffville cemetery the service at the late home in the west end being conducted by rev mr fuller of the presbyterian church the pall bearers were messrs d h rusnell bleke sanders mervyn watts ross e brown john lehman and isaac boadway must pay premium notes promptly recently in these columns we reported that certain farmers who were insured uuder the premium note system were being called for an extra assessment while the statement is correct the name of the company involved was with hold and this has caused some alarm to those agents in this locality who are writing insurance on the premium note plan lest their clients suspect them and their company as being involved their are various companies in suring under the premium note plan and some are very strong however the farmers union mutu al fire insurance co with head office at lindsay is the company we had reference to as having to make an extra assessment when taking out n policy in this company one farmer states that ho was required to sign a note for 172 and lie is now required to pay 31 so within thirty days or his insurance of 5s00 will be void as the farmers mutual does busi ness largely in victoria county where tlifre have been very few fires there is some speculation ai to why th extra assessment is im posed at this time the company lias been in business since 1895 and is said to be in good financial standing provided the members pay up the assessments on demand if the assessments are not paid when due the insurance be comes void but the member is not thereby released from bis legal liability under the premium note there is one other point to remember when insuring under this system and that is that even with the payment of an extra assessment once ill a while the insured may be getting his premium at a much less rate than those who insure under the system where premium notes are not issued- locals bump into moving train personal lines on tuesday morning there was a narrow escape from a fatal acci dent at the local o n r crossing when an automobie carrying nelson w byer and walter brown a son of j k brown who recently moved to town from lemonville collided with the morning express from toronto as the latter was pulling into the station at 9 oclock the body of the auto was badly wrecked but the motorist escaped any injury although onlookers feared they would be swept under the train and fatally injured evidently the men in the car did not see the train or realize its presence until within 25 feet of the track as they travelled west on main street at that distance how- over brown the driver applied the brakes but the car skidded into tho engine which struck the auto with the steps or the cab this caused the car to sideswipe against the train and it was struck again by the passing coaches the fenders and bumper were badly wrecked hut the engine was not damaged onlookers held their breath for fear the auto would be swept under the heavy cars the men say they did not hear or see the train although the engine whistle was blowing this is the second narrow escape at this crossing within a week n w byer the town electrician was being driven at the
