Obituary
WILLIAM BIGGAR.

Again death has claimed one of the
old settlers of Fulton. William Biggar,
born in Huntingdon Quebec, of Scotch
parents, died March %, 1907. He was
seventh of family of six boys and five
girls, of which only two brothers and
one sister are living. He came to Fulton
in 1900, starting wagon shop, contlnu-
ing at that line ever since. In 1866 ne
was united Ia marriage to jannatte
Laidlaw, from near Stratford, Ontario.
In 1881 she died leaving one son, Darcy,
now in Salmon, Idaho. After her death
the father fitted up rooms in the shop
and continued at his trade.
Always great reader and lover OF
horses, he has had these for his recrea-
ton. No more familiar scene can be
called to mind than to see him with
George Murwin, his boon companion
and associate in business, Jogging along
the country roads behind their favorite
horses. The evenings he would spend at
home reading or visiting with the town
folks. Naturally Burns was his favorite
poet. and often he would repeat some
familiar verse, such as:
What though on namely fare we dine.
Wear hoddin grey, and a that,
Gle fools their silks. and knaves their wine
A mans man for a that,
For a that and a that.
Their tlnSel show. and a that,
The honest man, though e er sac poor,
Is king o. men for a that.
Then let us pray that come it may
As come it will for a. that
That sense and worth. DER a the earth,
May hear the gree and a that.
For a that. and a that.
It's coming yet for a. that
That man to man, the world Der,
Shall brothers be for a that.

Of 49, over B. F. Green, principal of the
Orfordville grade schools. The women
of the district took livelier interest in
the contest than ever before, Y votes
being cast by them in Evansville.
The license question was the chief
interest in the election at Stoughton.
After going dry year the voters by a
majority of 81 decided to give the sa
looms another chance. 1t is to be hoped
that the overflow the coming year will
not be so much in evidence in Edgerton
as it has been this year.

land, Milton Junction, Orfordville and
Albany went no-license.
Clinton and Alton voted for license

Mrs. Babcock left for their future home

Last week postal inspector visited
Orfordvile, with evidence that three
packages had been sent as fourth class
matter, and that letter had been in
closed in each It will be remembered
that many of the newspapers of the state
warned the people 20 be careful In this
matter, inasmuch as there are in many
of the Offices special inspectors who open
all packages to learn whether or not
writing has been Enclosed. The inspect
ors at the ST. Louis Office found these
three violations, being letters in pack
ages sent to that city to one of the to-
bacco tag redeeming companies. The
fine imposed was $40 in each case. 1t is
needless to say that many people will be
more careful in this matter in the future.

DEATH OF DIR. HENRY w. sTILLMAN.

Another Old Resident Passes to His Re-
~ ward.
Death has robbed Edgerton of another
OF its prominent citizens in the passing
of DR.. FL. w. Stillman, which occurred
at 10 O'Clock on Monday evening last.
He had been failing in health for the
past two years, his eyesight being nearly
gone and other bodily inirmities greatly
impairing his strength, so that the recent
accident, spoken of last week, only has
tened the end.
