We deeply regret to record the
death of Christina McKinney, daughter
of the late Mr. and Airs. John McKin,
ney, and' wife of Mr. Thomas Stephens, ,
which occurred at her home in the ,
Qu'een's Hotel on Sunday. Mrs. Step-
hefis was born on April 12111, 1843, ,
in 'C,btconcha 'township, ..near Bramp-
ton. She afterwards removed with her
parents to London Township where I
they spent a few . years, subsequently f
settling in Kincardine where she was
married In 1865 to Mr. Thomas step -1
hens and came a bride to Seaford'. l
With the exception of two years spent
in Kitchener she has been a residents
of the town for the long period • of
over fifty years. Mrs. Stephens suf-
fered from a bronchial affection for
some years, but though in delicate
health was much the same as usual ti
until Wednesday evening when symp-
toms of pneumonia appeared and in
spite of the hest skill and care she' t
passed peacefuity away on Sabbath
morning. The late Mrs. Stephens was
a member of First Presbyterian church.
She was an estimable lady of an ex-
ceptionally unselfish, generous disposi-
tion that found expression in many
quiet, unostentatious acts of kindness.
She took a deep interest in the welfare
of the boys at the front and when
strength permited devoted much time
to ministering t0 their comfort. Mrs,

fered from a bronchial affection for
some years, but though in delicate
health was much the same as usual ti
until Wednesday evening when symp-
toms of pneumonia appeared and in
spite of the hest skill and care she' t
passed peacefuity away on Sabbath
morning. The late Mrs. Stephens was
a member of First Presbyterian church.
She was an estimable lady of an ex-
ceptionally unselfish, generous disposi-
tion that found expression in many
quiet, unostentatious acts of kindness.
She took a deep interest in the welfare
of the boys at the front and when
strength permited devoted much time
to ministering t0 their comfort. Mrs,
