Dr. Ormo ordered his immediate removal to Ulackburn Infirmary, an operation for an .ulcerated stomach being necessary, but there was little hope. Deceased was 48 years of age, and sincere sympathy will bo extended to tho members of h*s family in tho


inson’s Farm, Pendleton, on Wednesday ovouing, camo as a great shock to his family and to tiio yllagers in geiiei'al. I t was on Wednesday of lasfc week that his son James was married, and tlio father wiu present and took a prominent part


very sad circumstanceo of their bereavement. * * *


.Moor Ijaiio Sunday Scliool -had a very pleasant jaunt last Saturday through Mearley Woods, over Lho “big end” of Pcndlo to Downham, .e- turmiig by^ Wbrston and Salthill.


A party of about thirty friends attached I t was a


gloriously lino day, and tho climbers were "c- wauled with a magnificent panoramic view to the uoa«t. Tlio^.notabc fact about tho outing was that .Mr. Newton Aspden, who is in his 82nJ ytvir. starling athotid of the others, mado tlic ascent of Pcndlo and reached Dowiiham nearly two hours ill advance of tho party, who had t.'jJcen matters in .a more leisurely f:u>hion.


Thursday night last in tho mist wliidf foil upon the whole district. About 1010 p.m., Thomas Hall, 65, .Marsdon-sU;eet, Kirkham, who is hi charge of a tar-sprayiug equipment working for the' County Council a t Langho, was riding on -lis motor-cycle tlirough Iho village w*ith u companion James Hirkctt, of Kirkham, on tho carrier, when a niotor car, driven by Uarold Riding, of Wilp- shire, lurnod towards Spring terrace. Tho car caught Uio cycle broadside, throwing the rider and passenger on to tho i>avement. Birkctt was uiiijyured, but Hall was rendered unconscious, and sustained injuries to Ids right arm, leg, an ! chest. Ho was attended to at a house near by. .\fr. Riding, who was driving his brothen to tis homo at Langlio, had tho Imnps of tho car lighted, and tho dog apparently prevented him seeing tho molbr-cydo, wh’cli was badly bat­ tered in the collision. * *

Thu sports this yem* liud an added interest, for the boys coinpotod not only fur the many valuable and useful prizes, but also for points for Uio Houfio to which they belong. This caused the sports lo reach an excellence which bas seldom been ciinalled ami rarely surpassed. Tho high jump (open) was spociaUy good, for no less than three bovh lopped tho five feet level. Sovoral now events wero introduced, viz., tug-of-war, relay raco between House Uvinis, and a swimm­ ing nice, which took place in tho Ribblo the previous evening.
