Mrs. James Stutt
At her residence in Wroxeter, on
Thursday, February 12th, a life-long
and dearly beloved citizen, Mrs. James
Stutt was called to higher service.
Mrs. Stutt had been an invalid for
some years. Through her illness, her

marriage with James Stutt who prede-
ceased her in 1927, Surviving are three

Ville and Arthur, Winnipeg. A sister,

who has been with her sister for the
past months„ two brothers, James X,
Allen and George Allen.
The late Mrs. Stott was a member
of the United Church, and the Wom-
en's Missionary Society. Through her
long illness, she supported and con-
tinued to have a keen interest in the
church, its organizations and the com-
munity, and so will be greatly missed
by all who were privileged to know her
down through the years.
A private funeral service was held
on Sunday aftethorm from her late
residence. Beautiful floral offerings

friends to the departed. Rev. U. E.
