    • One of the pioneers of Hawkesville, Mr. F. G. Lackner, died last week, aged 70 years. He has lived there for 54 years. A fuller obituary will be published in the next issue in our Hawkesville letter, which is crowded out this week.

      HAWKESVILLE.

      It is our sad duty to record the death of one of Hawkesville's pioneers, Mr. Frederick G. Lackner. Deceased was born in Baden, Germany, in 1833. In 1839 he came with his parents to Canada, settling near St. Jacobs, and later on in the virgin forest near Hawkesville. He afterwards learned the trade of blacksmithing and for 34 years he wielded the hammer, but was living retired at the time of his demise. He leaves a widow, four sons, two sisters and two brothers. The bereaved friends have the heartfelt sympathy of the community.
