GRACE , 95T1I YE ! A daughter ’ land, who, as a girl survived the per- i ils of shipwreck to become a pioneer’ ' twice over in surroundings far re- 1 moved from the settled order of her native land, and who went to the polls on election day when long past • fourscore years and ten, on Monday ; entered her 95tli year on the farm : near Tlwrnloe where she and her late husband established themselves a generation ago when they moved 1 to the frontier for the second time ' in her long life. Mrs. Grace Harm- 1 er, one of the earliest settlers in Temiskaming and two decades before that a trail-breaker in Old Ontario, celebrated her birthday quietly at the home of her son, George Harm­ er, with 'Other relatives and friends to felicitate her on the auspicious occasion. For her advanced age she ■ is in fair health and able to move about the house while she looks for­ ward to being outside again during the summer days. She voted at the provincial election last June, when she was probably the oldest support­ er of A. J. Kennedy, former Con­ servative member, and at that time unsuccessful candidate for liis party in this contest. Mrs. Harmer has a remarkable store of memories days gone by and she can many interesting personal exper­ iences in her ninety four Thrills came to her early in life, for the sailing vessel in which her par­ ents had taken passage for Canada front England came to grief on the Irish Coast and Mrs. Hanner, altho’ but twelve years old, can recall being taken to Dublin’s fair city after the wreck. Eventually the voyage was resumed and it required about four­ teen weeks to cross the Atlantic be- for the company reached the shores of what was not yet the Dominion, noir to be for nearly two decades lat­ er. The Muxworthy family, of which Mrs. Harmer is a daughter, is of De­ vonshire stock. She was born in Devonshire, noted for Drake and his drum, on May 27, 1841, when Queen Victoria was not yet four years on the throne of Britain. Her father was a millei’ by vocation but the family on coming to Canada became farmers, and Mrs. Harmer has been a country woman practically all her life. The parents settled at Mitchell in Perth County, then still in the pioneer stage, and it was there that she was married to> John Harmer, at Goderich on July the First in the year 18 68, the first year Confedera­ tion was celebrated. Following her marriage Mrs. Harmer* lived in the Mitchell district, 'but over thirty years ago when T. & N. O. was be­ ing opened up after the Cobalt rush, the Harmer’s left Perth for Temis­ kaming. Again pioneer conditions were encountered and overcome and today the farm bears tribute to the spirit in which these Canadians of English breed met and solved their problems. Mrs. Harmer has three sons, William, of Milberta; James, of the White River area, and George at Tihornloe; also two daughters Mrs. Henrickson, (Mary) of Cali­ fornia and Mrs. Frank (Charlotte) in Toronto.
