After forty years in the editorial har-

being his passing of the eighty-sixth
mile post of life. His clear and fear
| less utterances through the columns
of his paper, his eminently proper life
and genial popularity have won for
him a measure of respect that might
we'll make his host of good friends
envious of his popularity, were it not
| for the fact that all are content to wish
| him every good that can come to man
while iourneyiug here below. We sim
cerely hope that our venerable friend,
| still hale and hearty considering his
advanced age, may be spared for a
number of years yet to enjoy we'll
earned rest and the beautiful evening
of we'll spent life-The Woodbine
