FATAL ACCIDENT.--On Monday forenoon the village was thrown into a a state of excitement by the occurrence of one of the saddest accidents Dundee has seen for many days. Mr. Moses Hunsberger in the morning left home a hale and hearty man,leaving his family in the usual good spirits, but was taken back at noon & stiffened icy corpse. He had taken a daughter to a farmer near Ayr and was returning home, when, about 11.30 as he was driving down Benjamin street, opposite Rev. E. Gruetzner's, the front axle broke. The buggy dropped striking" the horse's heel, and the infuriated beast. dashed madly down the street turning past Poth's shop, dragging the buggy and its unfortunate occupant. It sharply turned Chipman's corner towards the black bridge. This turn, so short and made at a break-neck speed, hurled Mr. Hunsberger head-first against the frozen bank. He was at once carried into Poth's shop and Dr. Miliar was immediately summoned. All assistance was in vain, however. He showed no signs of life except a light breathing until shortly after one o'clock when he expired. The family had promptly been called. His wife arrived in time to see her husband breathe his last. He leaves a widow and 5 children, 2 sons and 3 daughters. He was about 56 years old and died a member of the Mennonites. Much sympathy is expressed for the bereaved family.

Death of an old Pioneer
Mr. William Hunsperger, resident of district for 28 years, died last Friday.

Gradually the men and women who came here when conditions were absolutely in a raw state in the Didsbury district and by their hard work and unselfish giving of themselves lay down the foundations for a prosperous community by passing out of sight, and with the passing of each one of these old pioneers leave a gap amongst those of us who came in the early years which seemed almost impossible to fill.

It is our unfortunate duty this week to again record the death of one of those old pioneers in the person of Mr. William Hunsperger a man by his life of unswervingly loyalty to the to the district and community and his integrity and outstanding faith in the better things have left us an example that will be hard to follow.

Mr. Hunsperger, although of quiet disposition was always cherry and had a good word for everyone. He came to this district 28 years ago when there were mighty few settlers scattered over a large territory and consequently above he and Mrs. Hunsperger knew what real pioneering meant in the last great west. But through good times and bad they never gave up and they always gave a helping hand wherever they saw the need of it. For some years Mister Hunsperger was president of the Didsbury Agricultural Society and was also a very valuable counsellor, being one of the first to be elected to that position when the town was incorporated. He also held the position of J. P. During the war and was postmaster in the spring of 1912, which position he held until sickness over took him.

Deceased was born near New Dundee, Ontario, and 1816, being a little over 76 years of age. He was married in 1868 to Miss Catherine Schluchter from which Union three sons and two daughters were born, Allan, Abner and Alvin, of Didsbury and Mrs. E. Sherrick, Didsbury and Mrs. M, Ryckman, Chilliwack, B. C. and 21 grandchildren.

There were ten brothers and sisters of Mr. Hunsperger all are now dead with the exception of Mr. Ben Hunsperger of Chilliwack, B. C. and Mr. Aaron Hunsperger, of New Dundee, Ontario.

Mr. Hunsperger took a very active interest in the church work right up to the time of his death being a member of that Evangelical Church for over 50 years during which time he has several Offices, amongst them being trustee, class teacher and Sunday school superintendent.

The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon last and was the largest fitted ever took place in Didsbury, crowds of people being unable to get into the services at either the house or the church and, and the very large display a beautiful wreaths and bouquets testified silently eloquently to the esteem in which Mr. Hunsperger was held. Rev. Mr. Dengis, pastor of the Evangelical Church, had charge of the services assisted by Rev. Mr. Gowdie, Reverend Mr. Traub, and Reverend Mr. Bender. Reverend Mr. Gowdie, a very old friend of the family, preached the sermon at the church while M. Dengis spoke briefly at the home and church. Interment the place in the Didsbury Cemetery.

Mrs. Hunsperger senior and the family have the sincerest sympathy of the whole District in their loss of a loving husband and kind father and the district Mourns the passage of a wise counsellor and kind friend.

Flowers and wreaths were received from the following, R. B. Bennett, Calgary, large wreath, Geo. Cloakey, Calgary, spray Mr. and Mrs. Otto and Mr. and Mrs. Harderer, Cremona, spray, Mr. and Mrs. Ridd, Botteril, wreath, Mr. and Mrs. B.

______________


Menno H. Hallmann, Warden of the County of Waterloo, died on Sunday in his residence near Roseville. He was stricken by influenza in the autumn of 1898 and had been in poor health ever since. He was born May 15, 1844, was one of the best-known farmers in the County and was very involved with the cattle trade. For several years, he had been a member of the County Council, and a year ago, was named Warden, an office he very seldom exercized, because of his illness. His widow is a sister of Mr. S. Groff of Berlin. She, as well as three sons and two daughters, survive him. The burial took place yesterday, on Wednesday, at the Hallmann Cemetery near Roseville. The news of Mr. Hallmann's death reached Roseville on Sunday at the hour when the funeral service for Daniel D. Knechtel, another respected citizen of the area, was taking place.

M. HALLMAN.

A short distance further east down the road, and we come to the home of the above named gentleman. Mr. Hallman has lived here nearly all his life, and has for a number of years been one of the most extensive cattle buyers in North Dumfries. He is also a Justice of the Peace and a member of the county council, and his constituents look upon him as one of the honorable and worthy members of that body. He buys thousands of cattle annually, many of which he fattens and fits for the English market, and at the time of my visit he had thirty-four head of fine animals on band. His farm of 350 acres can not be surpassed by any other of like extent in the Dominion. Mr. Hallman is seldom found at home during the day, being either on the road buying cattle or attending to his official duties as member of the county council. He is a very busy man 365 days in the year.

Across the way on another part of the farm lives his son, E. J. Hallman, also a practical young farmer. This farm is also noted for its fine horses, and while on the latter place I was shown a handsome beast, "Dash wood," a two-year-old, and a pacer from Billy Clay, the dam having a record of 2:22 On this farm an average of 1,500 bushels of wheat annually are raised. Both Mr. Hallman and his son are members of the Farmer's Institute. They take a deep interest in any subject that has for its purpose the maintenance of a practical system of farming and one that has a tendency to encourage the farming community in general. That they are amply capable of offering valuable suggestions on farming will convince the skeptic that it is the case if he will make a personal inspection of their large and well managed estate.

FATAL ACCIDENT. A very sad accident, which terminated fatally, occurred at `Rosehill', the farm of J.C. Dietrich, Esq., Blair Road, on Monday evening last. The unfortunate victim was Mr. William W. Hunsperger, who resided with his family in the stone cottage on the farm and has been employed as a gardener by Mr. Dietrich for the past four years. About six o'clock on Monday evening Mr. Johns, the farm foreman, with another employee happened into the stable where they found Hunsperger lying on his face near the door in an apparently dying condition, although they had noticed him a few minutes before unhitching the team. Physicians were summoned, but before their arrival the unfortunate man had breathed his last. The body was taken to the house where on an examination being made, it was found that several of the ribs on the left side had been broken with some of them pressed in against the heart. Just how the accident really occurred is not known, and likely never will be. Deceased had been engaged during the day in drawing stone with the heavy farm team, and when the accident happened was putting the horses in for the night. When discovered the horses were standing in their stalls with the bridles off, but the harness still on, and the general belief is that the deceased was jammed against the post in the stall, crushing in his ribs. The horses are considered very quiet, but the quietest animal will sometimes kick, and the accident might have been the result of a kick, although there was no mark on the body to indicate such a thing. Deceased was in his 27th year and was a quiet, steady, exemplary young man and was well thought of by his employer. He leaves a widow and two young children, a boy and a girl, to mourn his untimely death.
