intense. regret that thiintielgral6is and
many friends of the late Mrs. Duncan
McDougall heard of her death on the
evening of Friday, 1Sth ult., from the
effects of cancer-. Her death, however,
was not sudden or unexpected. With
matchless patience and fortitude she
endured the consumings of that terrible
disease for many months, and at the last
passed away without a struggle, and as
from death unto life rather than the
reverse. She was buried at 10 o'clock.
on Sunday morning and` her remains
were followed to their last resting place
in the Stat'fa cemetery by a large pro-
cession of sorrowing friends and rela-
tives, after which a sermon was preach-
