He was born in Cumberland. England, on the ~2nd of February, 1816, and came to this country 57 years ago. He lived for a short time in Toronto and then _moved to Eglinton where he resided ‘l for about three years. He then moved _ , to Macheil’sCorners (Aurora) Where ' ‘ he kepta general .store for three or .four gyezirs. Next he removed to __Thornhill where he did business in 'Thorue and Parson's large store in thedmllow. In the Spring of 1855 he came to Richmond Hill and purchased the McPheison store which he occupi- ed until burned out. in 1368 when he built the substantial brick store known as The Fire Proof.

This January number is unusually fortunate in its fiction. Ian Maclaren breaks his long silence by contributing one of his exquisitive little sketches, “ The Vision of the Soul,” while Ham- lin Garland tells an Indian tale in his best vein, a story which has been elab- orately illustrated in colors. In several other stories, notably those by Ralph Henry Barbour, and E. S. Chamber- layne, the humorous predominates, while Miss Marion Hill’s story. "In Honor of the Infant,” combines a delicious sense of the ludicrous with a half unconscious pathos that comes from a perfect understanding of child- hood. Amongr the more serious articles in this number is a striking character sketch of Chief Arthur, of the Locomotive Engineers, the single pelmanent leader of labor in this country, and Senator Tihnan’s success- ful defence of his plan for the solution of the liquor problem“ Readers who 0h‘\14-. ‘ LESLIE’S POPULAR pre On Mnndny evening the Lecture Rumn nf the Presbyterian Church was crowded, it heng the Christmas en- tertainment of the sabbath School.
