    Notes:

    WILLIAM F. DAHMS.

    The sudden death of this promising young man, which occurred at the home of his father, Mr. Chas. Dahms, 5th line, last Thursday, caused profound sorrow in this community where he was well known and liked. He was in apparently robust health when he visited the spring show in Wellesley a month ago, but the following day he complained of illness and although able to be around he could not take his usual work In spring seeding. On Monday he called on Dr. Glaister when an examination showed that his ailment was Bright's Disease in it advances stage. The following day he was much worse and a couple of days later he passed peacefully away, at the early age of twenty-five years. The funeral occurred on Saturday afternoon a very large number attending the interment in the Lutheran cemetery at Poole. Friends and relatives from Port Huron, Cranbrook, Brussels and other distant points were in the concourse who listened to Rev. Mr. Battenberg's eloquent discourses in both English and German.
