The township of Greenock has,
dining the past few months, lost i.n
unusual number of its pioneers. The
eath of Mrs. Alex. McMorran
removed_ qt10 whs. has for the last forty
four years, been a resident here. Mrs.
McIltarrah's maiden palm was ,Grace
Wallace. She was born in County
Down, Ireland, in 1522. In 1847 she
married • Mr. McMorran and in the
following' year they emigrated to
Arneriai. After living at Thornhill,
,.. •
Yonge.St., for several years she moved
to the County of Bruce with her hus-
band in 1854, settling upon the farm
which Mr: .McMorran still occupies.
Of a fainily.of eleven, seven are still
living—Alexander in Spokane, Wash.
Terr., Robert is Manitoba, George in
Victoria, B. C„i Henry on the .lionse
stead, D.C. in .Lucknow, and the. to
daughters, .Mrs. I10Ime3, of Ripley,
and Mrs. Alex. Ross, of Bruce. For
several weeks past it was feared that
death Was approaching, During thb
winter she contracted a cold which
lingered i !I lier ir4 the spring opened
and which devehsped into an attack of
congestion of the lungs. This was
checked but with a reduced constitu-
tion she never fa:1y recovered. Mrs..
McMorran was one of the kindest of
women. • The will be .remerntered as
one who delighted to help anyone.
She was a model mother, -untiring in
her devotion to hes family and her
home. Without ostentation she lived
a devote I Christian life dying in hope
s of a glorious resurrection. The fun-
eral on Friday was largely attended.

Sudden Death
• The news of the sudden death of
Mrs. Treleaven, widow of the late
Walter Treleaven, on Wednesday
morning last, twas a severe affliction to
the familit ant& friends and a sad our:
prise to all' our citizens. - Ever since
the death of her husband about a year
ago, deceased had suffered a groat deal
with heart troubles, and many times
was in a very low condition, but for
a few weeks past, she seemed to rally
and on going to bed on Tuesday even -
was me well as usual. About twelve
o'clock, however,' she was suddenly
seized with heart failure, and though
she apparently recovered from the
effects of the first attack, within an
hour her heart's action again gave out,
and in a few minutes her spirit passed
away to the great beyond. • Deceseed
was in her 69th year, and -was widely
known and greatly respected, and in
their sad and sudden bereavement, the
family have the earnest sympathy of
the whole community. The funeral
takes place this (Friday) afternoon
at 2 o'clock, to the family plot in the
• Dungannon cemetery.
