HUBBARD'S COVE, March 4 - A feeling of sadness pervaded the whole community when it was learned for a certainty that Granville JOHNSON, of H company, First Canadian Contingent, died of wounds received in the engagement at Paardeberg on the 18th of February. This brave lad was a most promising young man and well liked by all. He was a son of Captain Robert JOHNSON of Black Point, who had the terrible misfortune to lose both eyes in a blasting accident several years ago. In conversation with Captain JOHNSON in January, he told your correspondent that "if he had twenty sons he would not keep one of them back from going to fight for their country." It was this same spirit that prompted his plucky son to volunteer for battle and lay down his life for queen and country on a South African veldt.

On Sunday morning, October 20th, there passed away Mrs. Jonas JOHNSON, at the advanced age of 88 years. Mrs. JOHNSON had been a faithful member of Brunswick Street Methodist church for many years, and during these years she was seldom absent from the regular services. During the last few years of her life she was not able to enjoy the privilege of attending the usual services of the church, but full appreciated the visits of her pastor and other friends who had known her for many years. Mrs. JOHNSON was an intelligent and interested reader of current events of the day, and was also a kind friend of the poor and unfortunate. To the bereaved friends sincere sympathy will be extended by many who have long known her as a friend to all who needed help and sympathy. The funeral will take place from the residence of her son-in-law, Thomas C. JOHNSON, on Tuesday afternoon.
