Correspondence of the Herald

HAMILTON, U. Co. May 4, 1916.
A melancholy event took place last week few
miles west of this, namely, the double death of Col
WnJ ohnston Kerr, and Mrs. Col. Kerr. The funeral
was one ofgreat pomp and ceremony, being attended
by the numerous tribes of Indians in the vicinity,
the whole masonic body, Col Kerr being Knight
Templer Of that fraternity) and half of Hamilton.
short history of the deceased may not be unac-
ceptable
Col. Kerr was a grandson of the celebrated Sir
William Johnston I; inherited much of his courage
and lnrepldlty; he served IN the last war, and was
made prisoner by the Americans; when hostilities
ceased, he was elected TO serve IN the Provincial
Parliament.
Mrs. Kerr was daughter of the renowned Brandt,
late chief OF the SIX nations She was always ac-
ceptable company at government levees, and was
wthal, acknowledged to be the most queen-llke and
dignifed lady on this continent.
In the course of the last war, number of armed
men were discovered around her house. Her hus-
band being absent, she assembled her servants,
armed them, and disposed them at different doors
and windows. The hostile movement was discov-
cred, and the ntruders fled; nothing daunted, she
seized pair of holsters and pistols, threw herself
on her horse, and slngly went in pursuit When
afterwards questioned to her fear on the occasion,
she exclaimed, the daughter OF Brandt cannot
fear.' She was grand daughter Of Sir William
Johnston, consequently, her husband and she were
cousins Their son Walter, is now chief of the six
nations, his father being only regent during the sons
minority, the title coming in direct line from
Brandt through the mother.
The excitement at the double death was great
The Messrs Harrison, artists of acknowledged
talent, sent for and while lying in their coffns,
their lkenesses were taken 1t is computed not
less than 5000 persons attended the funeral
Navigation is in full blast and the travel from the
west IS immense. A new barque called the Cram

made trial trip Thursday, and gave every salts

ribbed out and her loins are well arched and sup
ported by strong flleis. Though finely put up fore
handed her great excellence consists in the muscu-
lar Developments OF her quarters, thighs and gaskins
propeling power in the horse, which enables him to
move with great degree of velocity, is centred in
the hind quarters; necessarily in proportion to their
strength there will be the impulse which impels the
whole mass forward. Fashion goes with a long
rating stroke, gathers well, and moves with the ut
most ease to herself; what is rather singular, she
runs with loose rein; she is true as steel, has
remarkable turn of speed, can be placed anywhere,
and nothing can be finer than her disposition

FoRNr,NcES,-Peytona was bred by the late James
Jackson, ESQ., in 1882 at the Forks of Cypress, near
Florence, Ala. She was got by Imp. Gencoe--a re-
nowncd performer on the English turf-out of Gil

than sixteen hands three inches high under the

A separate entrance has been opened for the car
riages of members of the Club, and gentlemen ac-
companied by ladies'. On driving down the princi-
pal avenue leading from the turnpike to the Club
Stand and Ladies' Pavilion, they will direct their
coachmen to drive on towards the railroad, beyond
the entrance to the public stand, until opposite the
ladies' pavilion, where they will find new carriage
road leading directly to its doors. No gentleman
will be admitted to the enclosed space unless he be
member OF the club or subscriber. The sub
scripton for the week is $40 the annual subscrip-
ton OF the members of the Jockey Club is $40 and
$50.
We would suggest to gentlemen who propose to
go down In their own carriages, to send them
one OF the ferries to Brooklyn Williamsburg, at
an early hour, else they may be detained. very

UNBURNT BRICK HOUSES.

Houses properly constructed of this
material are warmer, more durable
and cheaper than frame. and are des-
tined to take the place of the log shanty
as well as tho more expensive wooden
walls. They arc admirably adapted
TO the peculiar circumstances Of the
settlers of Canada and the West and
SOUTHWEST portions Of the United
States, as they neither require much
skill nor expenditure to erect them
Those bestacquaintcd with the subject,
arc of opinion that they arc much
tho best calculated for low Gotta
ges, or buildings that are not designed
to be carried higher than Is feet. The
great difficulty of high walls built OF
mud brick, is, the rough casting, or
outer coat Of plaster, is subject 10 fall
off the real cause of which has been
heretofore overlooked. This falling
off, proceeds from the fact that the in
gradients composing the plaster are
not properly compounded and temper
cd, so as to cause the surface to be i'm
kqer'ious to water. By examining plas-
tered walls minutely, there may be seen
small aPpertures, which act as so many
-receptacles to receive the water. The
difference between burnt and I'M burnt
brick, is simply this: the one becomes
soiuted the moment it comes in contact
with water, the other admits the mois-
,ture without becoming dissolved. Clay,
or unburnt brick houses, are much
more wholesome for either man or
beast, than either brick or stone, in
consequence Of their having less afiini-
iy to moisture. Burnt brick are ex-
tremely porous, and each brick freshly
taken from the kiln, will admit of one
tmrd of its weight Of water. From
these facts. then, il would appear that
INC only difficulty in the way Of bring
unournt brick houses into general use,
Is, the liability of the plaster 10 fall off.

FIora's check was varying through
all the shades from rose to crimson, as,
with earnest voice and fearful eyes,
her mother thus questioned her, and
her trembling fingers scarcely held the
needle with which she was embroider-
ing some trillc. Mrs. Worthington
waited few minutes, and, as Flora did
not speak, she continued
