    • Sad Death

      We deeply regret to learn that word has been received of the death at Strasburg, Germany, of the wife of Mr. William Hespeler, of Winnipeg, but an old resident of the county. The deceased lady was a daughter of Mr. I. Myer, of Seaforth, and was well-known to many of our townspeople. It is a singular coincidence that Mr. Hespeler's first wife, Miss Mary Keachie, of Galt, also died in Germany, and if we mistake not in Strasburg. Mr. Hespeler will have the sincere sympathy of his many friends in his bereavement.
