The deceased was a native of Lan- ark County, and when she became in- capacitated through ill health, she re- turned to Perth, Ont., where she re- sidede with relatives until 1931. Go- ing to Toronto for medical attention she entered a private hospital, but the past ,year. was spent with her niece, and ,where she passed peace- fully away in her 90th year, having retained her faculties almost to the close of a useful life. • On Tuesday- evening a service was held in The Wni. Speers New Fun- eral Chapel, .Dundas St. West, con- ducted by Rev. Mr. Cox, Rector of St. Martins, and on Wednesday mor- ning the remains were conveyedby motor to the residence of her niece, Mrs. H.

S. Jones of this parish. Interment was made in Gorrie Cemetery.
