The death on Friday, the 27th inst of Mr. Archibald R. MacMurdo of Kelvin Grave, removes one of the oldest and most respected and life- long residents of that place. Mr. MacMurdo was in his 80th year and was the son of Archibald and Janet Stavert MacMurdo. and grand-son of the‘ first Archibald MacMurdo who emigrated from Dumfries, Boot- land. in the year 1819, and settled on the farm which is the present homestead of the family.

For the last three or four months before his death he pad been con- fined to his bed and although having a great desire to live he bore his suffering with great patience and resignation to the Divine will. knowing that a higher ilie awaited him in the Great Beyond. All that medical skill and tender nurslnfl could do W95 done to restore him to health but God willed otherwise.

In a reminiscent mood yester- day Mrs. John McAulay. Kent Street, who celebrated her 81st, birthday on December 2, recalled New Year's Days of the past when she was a young girl at her heme town of Sourls.

In those days the ‘roads around the little village new down almost to within a stone's throw of the houses and» travelling to Char- lottetown was either by boat or on horseback. The road was passable for wheeled vehicles but few of the people in the settlement bad anything but heavy farm wagons. most of them two wheeled. Many of the things that are considered indispensable now were lacking in those days. There were no matches and if thefire went out at night

had to be started by mama of lint and steel or "borrowed" from a near neighbor. She well re- members. Mrs McAulay said, hav- ing had to get up and go for bot

coals.

Practically all the houaes wan built of logs, the chinks filled with moss. In the summer it was taken out to keep the house cool and cit-y autumn fraab moss had to be gathered, the house made wind proof against the time when norbaatcrs swept in from the Gulf of 8t. Lawrence.

Flour was $12-00 a barrel and all clothes were homespun.

No clergyman was stationed at Bourla but a priest made a mm the village once a year to rn

marriages and conduct church services.
