4861	SNODDON, Lawrence Douglas - Larry was born October 21, 1941, and passed away suddenly May 24, 2009. He will be deeply missed by his family and many friends. Larry was predeceased by his father Jack Snoddon. He is survived by his mother Nora Snoddon, sisters Lorraine Willett (Kerry) and Karen Munro (Roger Ringuette), and brothers David (Joey) and Ken (Crystal), son David (Danielle) and daughters Jo-Anne Barber (Glen) and Lisa Drinkwalter (Trent). Larry had a special place for his grandchildren, Devin, Natasha, Robbie, Megan, Jack and Joe as well as his nieces and nephews Neil, Erica (Gavin), Laura, Yolaina, Jesse, Katy, Olivia, Polly, Arthur, Connor and Brooke. He will be particularly missed by his close friends Doug, Theresa, Murray and Carolyn, Wayne (deceased) and their children Travis, Wendy and Connie who considered him a dear uncle. Larry gave his time freely and was always happy to lend a hand when it was needed. Whether it was fixing a leaky roof, building a set of shelves, removing trees or picking out the family's “Charlie Brown“ Christmas tree, he was there. He enjoyed a gag or two, having coffee with friends, hiking with his grandchildren, his annual hunting and fishing trips, a game of chess or hockey game and planning his next project. Larry “retired“ as a stationary engineer with the NBPH in 2000, but his services and knowledge were greatly valued and he continued to work for several companies including Tembec and Goodyear. Larry was very resourceful and would rather build or fix something himself than buy it new. He built a home from scratch in the 1970's on Trout Lake, staked his claim to an amethyst mine, was an accomplished painter and always had many projects on-the-go. Larry was an avid fisherman who knew Lake Nipissing and Trout Lake well and would often share his catch-of-the-day with family and friends. Every year he took part in his son's fishing derby and he enjoyed taking the fishermen/women out to his favourite fishing spots during the family reunions at the Waltonian. The family will receive friends at MARTYN FUNERAL HOME, Friday, May 29 between 2 p.m. - 4 p.m and 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. Donations can be made to the Salvation Army.	Snoddon, Lawrence Douglas (I00875)

4863	SOLDIER KILLED AT MOUNT ZION PIE SUPPER Pvt. James Roden, 23, who was stationed at Greenville, N.C., was shot to death Tuesday night at a pie supper at the Mt. Zion commumity building. Bert Miller, 21, Valliant, has been placed under arrest and is being held in the county jail, as a result of the shootong, Clarence Lane, county sheriff, said this morning. Miller said in an interview Wednesday morning, that the trouble arose, when Roden, who Miller says had been drinking, accused him of bullying a 13 year old boy. He shot in self defense, he said, only after Roden had pulled out a white handle pocket knife. Investigations proved that three shots were fired with a .32 calibre pistol. One of the shots entered Roden's left cheek and ranged out the back of his head, the second entering his back at the left shoulder and coming out through his right breast and lodging in his shirt. The other shot was a complete miss. Following the shooting, Miller went to the home of his brother-in-law, Bill Clark, and accompanied by his wife, eluded officers until sunrise, being found in Clark's barn by Ed Richardson, deputy, and Aud Penney, constable. Roden, son of Mr. and Mrs. F.R. Roden, southeast of Valliant, was home on a furlough and was to have left Wednesday. He had been in the army about six months. He and Roden had an altercation little more than a year ago in which Roden had slashed his back with a knife, he said. He added that Roden at that time had threatened his life.

4866	Some extracts regarding David taken from the book below chronicling missionary experiences in Australia and Fiji. MISSIONARY TRIUMPHS AMONG THE SETTLERS IN AUSTRALIA AND THE SAVAGES OF THE SOUTH SEAS A Twofold Centenary Volume BY JOHN BLACKET Author of 'The History of South Australia,' 'Not Left Without Witness; or, Divine Truth in the Light of Reason and Revelation,' 'A South Australian Romance,' 'Social Diseases and Suggested Remedies' (being a Criticism of some Socialistic Theories), &c., &c. Ton&on CHARLES H. KELLY 25-35 CITY ROAD, AND 26 PATERNOSTER ROW, E.C First Edition, 1914 THE NOBLE BAND OF MEN AND WOMEN WHO HAVE WORKED AND TO THOSE WHO ARE NOW WORKING IN THE FOREIGN MISSION FIELD THE FOUNDING OF THE METHODIST CHURCH IN FIJI We now turn our attention for a few minutes to an oasis in the dark and dreary spiritual desert this was the island of Ono, in the Fijian group. Work was begun in this island by a converted Tongan. A number of natives accepted the gospel. These were much persecuted by the heathen ; but their numbers increased, until they felt that they were able to defend themselves against the attacks of the heathen party. They took up arms against them, and the heathen fled before them to their stronghold in the mountains. The Christians followed them, and took the town. Scarcely any one fell on either side. Instead of killing the vanquished the native Christians ran up to them, fell on their necks, and wept over them. Such a thing had not been known in Fiji. Aforetime they would have been killed and eaten. This treatment made such an impression on the minds of the heathen that they decided to accept the gospel at once. When Richard Lyth left Somosomo for Lakemba the gentle and scholarly David Hazelwood joined Thomas Williams in that dark and discouraging field. When Somosomo was abandoned David Hazelwood was sent to Ono. It was like a translation from midnight darkness to noonday. In a communication to the Methodist Missionary Committee in London Mr. Hazelwood said: 'The last time I wrote you was from Somosomo, a land of darkness and the shadow of death, where eminently Satan's seat is; a land of thick darkness, bordering on the regions of eternal night; where heathenism in the form of savage cannibalism, with all its horrors, lifts up an unblushing countenance. I am happy now to write to you from a place on which "the Light of the World" has poured His enlightening rays, and I trust for ever dispelled the gloom of heathenism! I could almost beg and entreat : never send me again to a heathen land.... What is not Christianity able to effect! I have seen its effects at home; I have seen them in the colony (New South Wales); but I have never seen its effects so general on a people as on the people of Ono.... As compared with Somosomo, we have removed from the verge of hell to the precincts of heaven.'* The following are a few testimonies given by the converted Fijians at Ono in connexion with a lovefeast presided over by David Hazelwood: 'One great thing I know is my sins; another is the love of God. It is a new thing for me to love men.... I know this is the effect of the love of God.' Another (a woman) said: 'My child died, but I loved God the more; my body has been much afflicted, but I love Him the more. I know that death would only unite me to God. In this testimony we hear again the voice of Paul: 'Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ... Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors.'Another convert said: 'I am a very bad man; there is no good thing in me; but I know the love of God. There are not two great things in my mind; there is only one the love of God for the sake of Christ' David Hazelwood soon had to pass through deep waters. His youngest daughter died of dysentery, and the father had to read the burial service over his own child. A fortnight later his wife was confined, and three days after passed away. The Rev. Thomas Williams arrived just in time to save his afflicted brother from the sore trial of reading the burial service over the mortal remains of his own wife. In 1885 Thomas Williams, one of the pioneer Methodist missionaries, revisited Fiji. What a marvellous transformation greeted his glad vision 1 Said he: 'I passed a night at my old and horror crowded station Somosomo, where, with the brethren Lyth, Hunt, Cross, and Hazelwood, and our noble wives, I endured sufferings of no ordinary kind. But they are passed, and on the ground where I once walked amongst the slain, amongst open ovens and devil temples, I have addressed a neatly attired and attentive audience. I witnessed strange scenes here from the year 1843 to the year 1849, and those which are daily passing before me are by contrast equally strange. Jehovah hath confounded the gods of the heathen, and gotten to Himself a glorious victory. Hallelujah!'	Hazlewood, David (I03578)
