Mr.. James Power, of Khockhouse which
occurred on December 10, quite punex-
pectedly. The deceased. gentleman had
not been in the best of health, having
suffered much from, rheumatism and
heart trouble, but still he was in no way
ircapacitated from attending to- his daily
business. On the 18TH Of December, Mr..
Power partook of his mid day meal as
usual, and half an hour later he COM
planned Of weakness, which was quickly
followed by complete exhaustion, and
finally dissolution. HIS death was
peaceful and edifying, surrounded by his
wife and such of his children as were at
home, and the last act Of his life which
was ever marked by a. devotion to his
religious faith-Was TO make the sign Of
the cross, a simple and touching confess
sion Of his submission to the will of his
Creator. The late Mr.. Power was. the
father of Mr.. John Wise Power, editor Of
