—Prof. Smilie returned, yesterday, from Kippen, Ontario, where he was called ten days previous by news of the serious illness of his father. He arrived in time to participate in the funeral services, his father having passed away the day the telegram was sent. Of course the event is a sorrowful one, but in this case it was not unexpected because he had been ill for some time and was a veteran of seventy-five years.
