The lady who caused the excitement is in re- ceipt of mother’s allawonce from the province owing to her husband being unfit for work, and the township gives the husband relief allowance of $6.00 per month. The chair which was wielded was apparently meant for relief officer Orr who was charg- ed with not giving the regular July voucher but it nearly hit Reeve Ren- nie who along with councillor Bar- ber and Road Superintendent Maxâ€" well were endeavouring to restore order before Constable Walker was called on the scene.
