Death of Mrs. WithamModModem
The sympathy of a large circle of
friends will go out to'our esteemed
townsman, Mr. William Bawden, in
the loss of his beloved wife who passed
to her reward on Tnesday morning at the age of 50 years and 4
months. Mrs. Bawden had been a
long sufferer from paralysis, and her
health during the past few years has,
been very much impaired by sudden
attacks of the disease, which at times
would render her sick almost unto
death, For some time, however, she
enjoyed fairly good health, but on
Saturday night last she was suddenly
stricken down again, and lapsing into
unconsciousness' she never rallied.
Mrs. Bawden was born near Clinton,
Ontario, her maiden naive being
Emily Shaw.. She was twice married,
her first husband being Mr. Adam
Cook, and the latter, Mr. Wm. Baw
den, with'whom she has resided ' in
town for the past fifteen. years,' and
during which time she has endeared
herself to many who will sincerely re-
gret to hear of her demise. The de-
ceased was of a lovable disposition,
kind and true as she was good, and
she leaves behind her the fragrance of
a pure life, She - was a them'bee of the.
Presbyterian church and a true Christ-
ian. Besides her much bereaved hus-
band' she is survived by three sons,
two brothers and two sisters, all of
whom will have the sympathy of
their many friends. The funeral"will
take place to the Exeter cemetery to-
day (Thursday) at 2 o'clock in the
afternoon.
Death. of Mr. James McCullagh.
Another of Usborne's most esteemed
and highly respected pioneers passed
to the Great Beyond on Saturday
morning, Feb.10, at the age of 80 years
and 28 days. Mr. McCullagh was a
robust, heady man until about seven
years ago when he sustained through
a fall an injury which impaired• him
from following the arduous duties of
life, which duties he'had previously
taken a great pleasure in. He was born
in the County of Armagh, Ireland, in
1826 and came to Canada 111 1847, being
then 21 years of age, first settling in
Georgetown where he remained for
about ten years, after which•' he cane
to Usborne and settled on the 10th
concession. He was married in 18133'
to Jane Armstrong, who has been bis
loving helpmate during all these years
and who survives him. Their union
was blessed with tbreesons, one dying
in infancy; Irvin, who died at the age
of 13 years and John, who lives on his
farm on the llth concession. Deceased
continued to reside on the 10th con-
cession until about three. years ago,
when he erected for himself and Mrs.
McCullagh a beautiful and comfort-
able home on the farm of his son,John,
in order to he nearer to bis son and.
daughter-in-law, who have been most
kind and attentive to their every wish.
He had, therefore, been a resident of
this township for half a century, help-
ing to convert the vast forest into one
of the finest townships in the •county.
He was a man of strict integrity, being
conscientious in all his dealings with
his fellowmen and particularly ab-
horred anything savoring. of deceit in
any shape or form, was of an amicable
disposition and although well versed
in the topics of the day, never attempt-
ed to force his opinions or views on any
person and was one of the truest and
kindest of neighbors, always pleased
when an opportunity to do a good turn
came. Although not prominent in
public life he always took a keen inter-
est in the welfare of the country, and
was a Conservative inpolities. In re-
ligion he was a Presbyterian and was
during his residence in this township
a valued member of the Thames Road
congregation, being a regular attend-
ant at the house of worship, his pew
seldom being empty while his health
permitted him to attend. His usual
liberality could be relied upon and he
generously contributed to all deserv-
ing causes brought to his notice to the
last. The Bible was an open book iu
his hand, from which he took great
comfort, humbly trusting in the words
of his blessed Saviour "Blessed are the
dead which die in the Lord, yea saith
the Spirit that they may . rest from
their labors and their works do follow
them." The funeral took place to the
Exeter cemetery on Monday and was
largely attended.
