For the West: Mr. John Weir, Dalhousie, left this week for the County of Lambdon intending to settle there. His farm on the Highland Line was bought by Mr. Thomas Anderson, McDonald’s Corners.

Port Elmsley—It is our painful duty to report one of those melancholy accidents which so often occur by the free use of firearms and one that is only a repetition of many that take place from time to time and should be justly censured by the press. Still, the warning seems to go unheeded. We hope the following may be sufficient warning to prevent the like happening again for at least one generation. Willie Gordon, a lad about twelve years old and a son of Mr. William Gordon, who resides about a mile and a half from this place was accidentally shot on Saturday, 17^th inst., by James Beveridge, a boy about 15 years of age and son of Mr. William Beveridge. As far as we could learn, young Beveridge had been to the Rideau Lake to shoot ducks and on returning homeward called on Gordon and while there, loaded his gun near the barn, putting a piece of paper on the nipple, leaving off the cap. Several children were standing around when young Beveridge lifted the gun, thinking it would not go off, and pointed it at young Gordon, saying he would shoot him. Gordon was frightened and told him not to do that again, when Beveridge held up the gun a second time and it went off, taking effect to the left side of Gordon’s head. Fortunately, only a few scattering shots hit him and there is hope of his recovery. Dr. Howden of Perth was telegraphed for and immediately came and dressed the wound.

Drowning Accident—On Monday last, 31^st, Mr. Thomas Appleby left his house a few miles below Innisville for Ferguson ’s Falls, in company with Mr. Thomas Morris. On arriving at Innisville, Mr. Appleby for some unknown reason, preceded Mr. Morris by one half hour and on the arrival of the latter at Ferguson ’s Falls, Mr. Appleby had not made his appearance. A search was therefore made on the supposition that he had drowned and his body was consequently found the following day near Ferguson ’s Falls. The unfortunate man leaves a wife and large family to mourn the loss of their natural protector at the commencement of this inclement season.

Mr. John Dettrick has left Perth to manage the dyewood works at Brockville owned by Messrs. Campbell and Walker of this place.

Fire in North Elmsley —Last Wednesday about 3:00 the dwelling house and woodshed belonging to Mr. Henry McVetty, near McLean ’s Landing, North Elmsley , caught fire from a defective stove pipe in one of the rooms and were burned to the ground. Very little of the contents were saved. There is a small amount of insurance on the property.

Robert Buell, late on the staff of the Courier, and now in the Solicitor’s Office of the Canada Southern Railway at St. Thomas , was in town last week attending the funeral of his father, Mr. W. O. Buell, Esq.

Fatal Accident—On Thursday last week, a young man about 21 years of age named John K. Code, son of Mr. Thomas Code, farmer, North Elmsley, was struck in the head by a branch of a tree he was felling and his skull crushed in. Dr. McCallum of Smith’s Falls, gave him every attention but the unfortunate man never spoke afterwards but sank gradually until death came upon him the morning of the following Monday.

Smith’s Falls: Last week while Mr. Thomas Code and son of North Elmsley were chopping in the bush, the son, a young man about 17 years of age, in endeavouring to get out of the way of a falling tree, ran directly under it and received such injuries that he died a few days later.

Smith’s Falls: On Monday evening last, a young man named Christopher Lynch, son of Widow Lynch, of South Elmsley, was thrown from his sleigh over the railing of the Lock Bridge into the Lock, a fall of about 20 feet, and sustained such injuries that he died an hour or two later. When examined by the doctor, one side of his head was mashed almost to a jelly, thus precluding any possibility of recovery. His mother and sister are now without a single mail representative.

Lost on the Prairie: A young daughter of Mr. Neil Stewart, who resides in Manitoba , was lost on the prairie a few weeks ago. Shortly after between 15 and 20 horsemen left for the purpose of searching for her. She had left home in the morning to go to a neighbor’s house but a fog settled down and she lost her way and wandered about until evening when she got to a house about three miles from home. In the morning she was brought home but previous to her arrival, word had been sent to Emerson for help. Mr. Stewart is a former resident of Almonte.

Died in Gaol: Last Sunday, Feb. 10, an old man named Frederick Weir, confined to the Perth gaol as a vagrant since Feb., 1876, died in that institution of old age and natural causes at the age of 76 years. The old man was long a resident of this county. Dr. Kellock, coroner, held an inquest on the remains and the jury brought in a verdict in accordance with the above facts.

Auction Sale: Mr. T. W. McDermott, auctioneer, has been instructed by the executors of the late Archibald Campbell to sell by public auction on the 15^th March, the farm belonging to the estate along with the stock, implements, hay, straw, etc.

We regret to hear of the death of Mr. L. Rathwell, veterinary surgeon late of Perth . He died at his home near Varna , County Huron , on the 6^th Feb., of consumption.

Since our last issue, the refractory pupil, James Kleg, was brought before Charles Rice, Esq., charged with the assault on his teacher and after a review of the whole case before the magistrate, was sentenced to ten days in gaol and to pay the costs amounting to $6, and in default of meeting the latter, to undergo, in lieu, a further imprisonment of 20 days in goal. We trust that this will be a salutary lesson to all boys at school inclined to be notoriously refractory.

Infanticide: On Thursday evening, 7^th inst., Annie Smith, a servant at one of hotels in this town, feeling herself taken in labor, left the hotel and proceeded to the home of Henry Boulter, near the Basin. During the night while Mrs. Boulton was about for assistance, this girl Smith was delivered of a female child. It was afterwards found deposited in a pail of water in an adjoining kitchen. An inquest was held on Friday before Dr. Kellock, coroner, where it was elicited by the medical evidence that the child was a healthy, full grown infant and had been born alive and had come to her death by being suffocated in the pail of water. The jury returned a verdict of “willful murder” against the girl Smith, who will accordingly be removed as soon as in a fit state of health to await her trial at the Spring Assizes.

Perth Courier, March 1, 1878

Yesterday afternoon, Mr. Timothy Sullivan, a respectable farmer in North Elmsley , was returning home from Perth on horseback and a pair of boots were hanging over his arm, and they became untied and fell to the ground, which frightened the horse, which shied to one side and threw Mr. Sullivan heavily to the ground. He lay there helpless for some time but at length was discovered and taken back to Perth and brought to Dr. Kellock for treatment. Upon examination it was found that Mr. Sullivan’s collarbone and three ribs were broken, besides being severely lacerated about the face and hands. His injuries received every attention from the doctor but they are of a severe nature and it is feared inflammation may set in. The accident took place between town and the brickyard.

Perth Courier, March 8, 1878

Mr. William Robertson having had a stable, barn, hay and other provender destroyed by fire last Sabbath, is compelled to dispose of his stock of horses, cows, sheep, etc. at once and an auction will be held therefore, of all these things at his residence tomorrow (Sat.) at 1:00 pm .

We are informed that the late Mr. A. L. Ferland’s death was neither sudden or unexpected by his friends. For some time before he had been suffering from severe illness and before he died, received the last rites of the E.C. Church .

Smith’s Falls: Emigration Fever in the form of preparations to move some east but most west. Some time ago, two young men Adam Ballantyne and W. Riddell, purchased farms in Maine and moved there. Now, John Davison, another Elmsley farmer is moving to the same place. Gabriel Chalmers and Joseph Lovey are taking Greeley ’s advice and moving West. John O’Reilly of this place took his departure a few days ago for Sioux City , Iowa . We believe people are making a mistake in going to the United States instead of the North West Territories .

Perth Courier, March 15, 1878

Smith’s Falls: For the past few months, Almonte has been remarkably free of petty thievery but we regret to see that the mania which some of our citizens have for thievery is beginning to show itself again. On Tuesday night the clothes-line at the residence of Mr. J.G. Hayes was completely stripped of its load while Mr. J. C. Stevens lost a number of valuable articles in a similar way.

Perth Courier, March 22, 1878

Uncle Sam has notified all those having such claims to present them without delay.

Body Recovered and Inquiry—Last Sabbath, the body of Mr. James Richardson, who was drowned last August while sailing on the Olay (?) Lake , was found by his son floating close to the shore near the front of the lake there, opposite George McKay’s. On the following day, an inquest was held on the remains by Dr. Howden, Perth , coroner, who commanded a jury to examine the body and hear the evidence. The body having been identified and the accidental drowning of the deceased proved, a jury returned a verdict in accordance with the facts. The remains were buried on the lake shore close by the place where they were found.

Almonte—Sad Accident—A little boy, aged about 5 years, son of Mr. James Proctor, overseer to Rosemond’s Woolen Mill, was drowned in the Mississippi on Thursday evening last. As no person was with him at the time, it is not known how the accident occurred but from the place where the body was found in the small chute near the mill, it is supposed the little fellow fell off the foot passenger bridge which crossed the stream where it leaves the river and passes through the levee. There is a slight fall and a very swift current at that place. When the child had not returned home—which was only a hundred yards from where the accident happened—in the evening the parents became alarmed and a number of the citizens turned out to help in the search. The body was found before 10:00 the same evening.

Mr. G. A. Gamsby, former merchant of this place, arrived in town last Tuesday in good health and spirits. He has just returned from an extensive trip to Minnesota and Dakota and the Black Hills and thinks a good deal more of the country and its agricultural resources than he does of the habits and morals of the people. He comes back with a higher opinion of Canada than ever.

Carleton Place : Suicide—The news flashed to town on Saturday, that a man named Mr. John O’Shaughnasy of Ramsay had poisoned himself and we waited diligently for the full news. It came by later on Tuesday to the effect that this man on this day had procured an order from a doctor in Almonte on which to purchase ten grams of strychnine with which to poison foxes. When he reached home, he put the strychnine into a tumbler of milk and drank it down after which he informed his family that he had taken enough poison to kill ten men. Two medical men were sent for but he refused to take medication to counteract the effect of the poison and he died. Dr. Burns, coroner, Pakenham, was sent for and held an inquest on the same evening.

Perth Courier, November 1, 1878

Ottawa ’s Pioneers: R. Lees, Esq. The Ottawa Free Press is in the act of printing a series of biographies of the leading pioneers of the capital yet living, and has the following sketch of the history of Mr. Robert Lees, Esq., Q.C. Mr. Lees is a brother to Mr. William Lees, Esq., Reeve of Bathurst.

Another old member of the Bar is Robert Lees, Q.C., Clerk of the Peace and Crown Attorney. Mr. Lees was born in Berwickshire , Scotland in 1816 and when only a year old his parents moved to Canada settling in Perth in 1819. Perth , which was a military settlement, had quite a large population at the time. His father took up land in the vicinity. The subject of this sketch entered upon the study of law and in 1847 (?) became an attorney and was called to the Bar in 1848(?). Ottawa had become the county town in 1842 but previous to that the headquarters for the Bathurst District was Perth . Immediately after being called to the Bar, Mr. Lees began practicing in Bytown. At that time, Mr. A. Gibb, now one of the veterans of the Bar, was only a law student. The lawyers practicing at the time were: T. G. Keefer, R.W. Scott, R. Harvey, J.B. Lewis, Elkenah Billings and John Scott, afterwards created a judge. The circuit at that time was comprised of Perth , Brockville and L’Original. In 1867(?) he succeeded the late Mr. Francis Powell as Clerk of the Peace and shortly afterwards became Crown Attorney. In fact, by a strange coincidence it so occurred that Mr. Lees was the first county attorney appointed in Canada . Just prior to his appointment, an act was passed providing that clerks of the peace should not act as crown attorneys and also that in case a vacancy occurs before the act comes into form, its provisions should apply. The vacancy filled by Mr. Lees occurred before the act came into law and this led to his receiving the first crown attorney ship. In 1873(?) Mr. Lees was appointed Queen’s Counsel. For three years he occupied a seat in the Council Board acting on the belief that a public official should not mix up in political or municipal matters; he has remained a silent spectator of the scenes being enacted around him and has occupied his leisure time to a large extent in the cultivation of fruits and flowers in which department he is kind of a connoisseur and has been successful in county exhibitions. Mr. Lees still enjoys robust health and although he has three score years he bids fair to celebrate many anniversaries yet.

Perth Courier, November 15, 1878

The Eye and Ear—Dr. Stewart has treated a large number of cases of eye and ear complaint since he came to town. In the case of cross eyes, he has operated on two or three persons successfully. Mr. W. C. Taylor, Scotch Line, has been completely cured of cross eyes.

A New Departure—The kettle drummer of the Perth Military Band, Mr. Phil Woods, has left town to rejoin the Governor General’s Foot Guards. The young man was considered one of the best operators of the kettle drum in Central Canada . His equal will be got somehow if John Lee can do it.

To Gaol—Judge Senkler on Monday morning last sent a young man named McDonald of Smith’s Falls to two months imprisonment in the Perth gaol for stealing oysters.

Law Exam—Mr. Alexander C. Shaw, law student in Mr. Rodenhurst’s office, passed his second interim examination with flying colors last Wednesday at Osgoode Hall, Toronto.
