A.NOTU0010 Piu:vrxx8 GONE.-0ue by
one 1118 noble band of men and women

Howick from a wilderness to one of
the finest townships in the county,
and which now consists of fine farms
and beautiful villages, have passed to
their rewind and this week 'we have
to ntweed the demise of a well known
resident of this township in the per-
son of Mrs, Andrew Doig, of this vil-
lage, whose death occurred at the reai-
dance of her daughter, on Monday,
Oct. 27Lh at Listowel, where she was
taken ill about 5 weeks -ago. Airs.
Doig, whose maiden name was Mar-
garet Patrick, was the youngest child
of the late Peter and Janet Patrick,
and was born in the township of Wel-
lesley in 1852 and consequently at the
time of her death was iu her 68th year.
When a child she came with her par-
ents to Howick and has resided con-
tinuously up to her demise. She at-
tended the Public soloed at Union S.
S., No. 10, where her children also
afterwards went. In August 1868 she
was married to Andrew Doig, at age
of 17 and at that, time was considered
one of the most beautiful young wo-
men of that neighbor howls Her hus-

he brought his yeuno bride 2 years
later, where they continued to reside
for many years, and endured Many of
the hardships incident to pioneer life
with (curage and cheerfulness, but
they lived to see their labors crowned
and their' children vended around
them in pleaasant and happy homes,
Some years ago they decided to retire
from active duties of farm life, and
built a comfortable resideuce t'or them-
selves in Corrie and where Mr. Doig
died. very euddenly 5 years ago,
Since then Mrs. Doig continued to re-
side in this village and was quite
healthy and active, While visiting
