In the drowlng-room of Madame Albert Sevigny, wife of the Speaker. a few women had gathered for a chat. When the alarm sounded, Madame Savigny led the way out, but two of her guests, Mcsdamcs Louis Morin and Henri Bray of Quebec, turned back to get their furs and other valuables. They were trapped and died in the building. The Speaker succeeded in dragging his children to safety.

The death list included also Bowman B. Law, member of par- liament for Yarmouth, N.S.; J.R.B. Laplantc, clerk assistant of the House of Commons; Randolph W. Fanning. a. postofflce employc; Alphonse Dcslardlns a. Dominion constable, and A. Dcsjurdins. a Dhunba.

______________ MRS. THOMAS TRAINOR

It was with feelings of sorrow and regret that the citizens of Emerald and adjoining districts on the morning of Jan. 11th. 198B. heard of the death of Mrs. Thomas Trainor.

Although she had been conﬁned to her home for a number of years she enjoyﬁd very good health until she suffered a paralytic stroke and lived only a. few days. Mrs. ‘Id-alum- had reached the advanced age of eighty-one years and had been a resident of Emerald for the greater part of her life.

She was a woman of cheerful disposition; generous. warm heart» ed, and had many true friends in the community in which she lived.- She was an amiable wit. a kind and loving mother. a charitable neighbor, alwayi willing to assist those in need of help.

She leaves to mourn two soils, Jarvis and Claude of Eﬁneruld; and three daughters. Mrs. Michael Mc- Loskey. Havel-hill. cud Mrs. Fred Jones and Lizzie of Emertvd. The funeral took place on Monday to Freetown Cemetery. Rev. Father McDonald said the funeral mass after which the remains were quiet- ly laid in the cemetery. The pall- bearers were ivzssrc Patrick Creigh- an. George Tralmr. Joseph Trainer, George Sherry, John Trainer and Cecil ‘Pi-diner.

Chief of these was an easing of Franco-German t . accomp- lished by Eden, acting as a go- between for Pierre-Etienne Flan- dln, the French Foreign Minister, and Baron Konstantin von Neur- ath, envoy of the Third Reich.

Other conversations, it was learned, had. an important bearing on the Austrian situation and on the Balkans.

Little light was shed on these latter talks, except for an indica- tion that restoration of the Haps- burg throne in Austria is not to be expected in the near future.

Observers were interested keenly in the repented talks which Eden held with Maxim Lltvlnoff, Soviet Commissar for Foreign Affairs. The British Foreign Secretary met Lit- vlnoffl for the third time this at. tcrnoon. The result was not stated. except for a denial that revision of the Anglo-Soviet trade pact l3 under discussion.

In view iof Eden's discussions of the Loeamo Treaty with both Von Neurath and lilundln. there was widespread ‘speculation ns to whether the Franco-Soviet military assistance Ducts had entered the scope of the Eden-Litvinoff talks.
