IN MEMORIAM.
It is with extreme regret that we notice the death, of the Rev. Mr. Stewart Wilson, who took leave. of this world at his residence, Parawaii yesterday. The rev. gentleman ; was well known, ,and, where..known,.'liked.'and' respected; for, to an affable and gentlemanly bearing h« added a true earnestness in the good work which he had set, out on life's journey to perform that begot for him esteem and admiration. The gap which Mr. Wilson's sudden death has left in our community will be the more felt because he has, left the mark of his labors behind. He was a most enthusiastic supporter of total abstinence, and spent much of his time and energy in endeavoring to spread its principles, of the goodness and benefit of which, he himself held so firm a conviction. As a preacher the deceased was deservedly liked, because his sincirity was apparent. Mr. Wilson's family oh the Thames consist of a ■wife and child. The funeral will take place to - morrow, and the members of.the order : of. Qood Templars (to which deceased belonged), will follow the body to its last resting place. '
