A Healthy Neighbourhood
Pakenham township must be an exceedingly healthy neighbourhood, if we judge by the facts contained in the following item, which has been kindly handed in to us by a resident of the above township: Within the compass of a mile on the 9th line of Pakenham there reside ten old settlers whose combined aged tote astonishing aggregate of 828 years - average of over the four score. As we know our readers will be interested to learn who the parties are, we give the names and ages as follows: ....... Mr. and Mrs. Walter Wood, aged 87 and 78 respectively, emigrated from Lanarkshire the same year as Mr. Waddell. At time of writing Mrs. Wood is laid up with what it is feared will prove a fatal illness.

P.S. - Since writing, the above we learn that Mrs. Wood died on Sunday. During her long residence in this district the deceased lady, by her many excellent qualities, won for herself a very large circle of warm friends, one and all of whom will receive with deep sorrow the news of her demise. The bereaved ones have our sincere sympathy.
