Family Re-Unions.

The true Christmas spirit is in the
family re unions. The JOY of meeting
each loved one of the home circle; the
pleasure in exchanging gifts, however
small; the merry time spent over the
Christmas feast, each and all bind us
more closely together and Christmas
time is looked forward to with many
loving thoughts.
A reunion at James Browns brought
ID. II. Brown and wife, of Deckerville,
and Charles Brown and wife, of Sani-
lac Centre, to meet with the home rela-
tives, discuss the big turkey and this
zero weather and other appropriate
topics. At the Rapley House the an
nual reunion of the family occurred.
Frank Rapley, of Toledo, Ohio, was
present together with the relatives in
town and a happy time was spent. At
J. B. Francis, the sons Roy and family
of Port Huron, DIR. Alec from Grand
Rapids and Frank of Kingston were
all at home but Christmas greetings
were hardly exchanged before a tele-
gram announced the news of the death
of Oscar Mills, of Toledo, Ohio, whose
wife is a sister of Mrs. Francis and a
former resident of this place. Mr.. and
Mrs. Francis took the first train for
Toledo and Christmas day was not as
merry at this house as had been in
tended.
There were probably many reunions
throughout the town and many happy
family circles on Monday and it may
be there were some not SO happy,
through sickness, or sorrow or perhaps
destitution. Did those with plenty
share with their less fortunate neigh
bors? Did a few kind words tighten
anyone's burden at this Christmas
tide

all parts OF the Grand Opera house
Acting on the suggestion of Judge

legs, feet and some teeth of man,
which had evidently been hidden by
the rock from human eyes for mum

It is also said that this find was
made near the place where Alexan

young Gilbert Gates's mysterious
disappearance first caused a thrill of
horror in Monroe county thirty years
