Saturday night, Aug. 7th, the spirit of Jane Ferguson, relict of the late Archibald Duncanson, took its flight. She was nearly 71 years of age and was most highly esteemed. Mrs. Duncanson had been in failing health for some time, her long and painful ill- ness being borne with great patience, so that her demise did not come as a surprise. The subject of this notice was born. in Glasgow, Scotland, coming to this country at the age of 7 years with her parents. They settled in Ram- say township where they spent the next I years, coming to the 18th Con. of Grey. From here demised was united in marriege, moving with her husband to their pioneer home on the 17th Con. Here they labored together amid the many hardships of pioneer life until 22 years ago last March when her husband was called home. Mrs. Duncanson, who was of a bright cheerful disposition, always ready to lend a helping hand and won for herself many friends who will long miss the kindly smile. and timely word. She leaves 4 sons and 5 daugh- ters to feel the loss of a loving mother. 2 sons are deceased. Mrs. Duncanson appreciated very much the boquets, accompanied by kindly words, brought during her illness. HO WIC K. It is our sad duty at this time to re- cord the death of our honored and es- teemed friend, Mr. Jas. A. Sanderson. The deceased was born May •27th, 1867, in Howick Tp., the old home being now occupied by Mr. John Robinson, of the sixth con. On April 8th, 1801, he was married to Miss Euphemia Graybiel. Their marriage ceremony was perform- ed by Rev. J. W. Pring, in the new Methodist Church, Fordwich. It was the first marriage to be performed in the new church and Mr. and Mrs. Sanderson were made the recipients of a beautifully bound Bible donated by the congregation. For a number of years Mr. Sanderson was engaged in farming on the Gth con., just west of this village, but latterly had charge also of the coal and liumber business of Fordwich. During the past winter he experienced a severe attack of grippe which developed into an abscess in the head. Two operations failed tb relieve the situation, and on Tuesday, Aug. 3rd, in the General Hospital, Toronto, death. called him from the cares and activities of this life. Our friend will be very much missed in the community. He was an honored citizen and willingly and heartily supported .every good cause that came to his notice. He is survived by his true and faithful wife, one daughter, Florence; two sons, Gor- don and Harold; two sisters, Mrs. G. McKee, Toronto, and Mrs. W. John- ston, Sault Ste Marie, and one brother, Robt. J., of the sixth con., Howick. Delha, their oldest child, predeceased her father nineteen years ago. On that, great and eternal morn may this be an unbroken family to share in the glories of a new Jerusalem. Mrs. Angus McGillivray, an old resi- dent of the 5th con. Kinloss, died early on Wednesday morning, Aug. 11, at the age of 79 years and 2 months. She had been ill for the past two years, a sufferer from rheumatism. Mr. Philip McMillan received the sad news, a few days ago, of the death of his niece, Miss Hazel McQuillin, at Sierra Madre, California.
