Death of James Whenham.
The following from the ' Sentinel of
Pilot Mound, Man„ trill be of inter-
est to many readers of The News,
Record in this
district and in the
west :
"After an illness of several months
Mr,' James Whenham, senior, one of
:Pilot Mound's much respected' and
best known citizens, crossed the 'bar
into eternity at the hour of mid-
night on , October 160, . terminating
his earthly career in the 08th year
of his age. He had been ailing,
morn or less, ever since ''last spring,.
when he was taken ill with append-
icitis; from which herallied some-
what, to he soon stricken with con-
jention of the 1}rngs, that later deve-
loped into tuberculosis, which result-
ed as above stated, despite the best
of care by physician and friends.
Mr. Whenham .was bern near Lon-
don,.England, coming to Canada with
his parents in early childhood, locat-
ing at Clinton, Ontario. At the'age
of fourteen he apprenticed to learn
the-:blacksmithing at 'Londesboro;
which trade he followed for the
greater part 'of his life, working as
a journeyman for several years, then
joined .partnership with one John
Brunsdon at Londesboro, :Ont., in a
blacksmith and carriage making busi-
ness, in which chop he remained for
about six years.
In 1,878 or thereabouts Mr. When -
ham came west to the Pilot Mound
district, Manitoba, and took up land
on the farm now owned by Geo. Gem -
mill in Londesboro settlement,where,
be lived for about five years,. then
went to Waskada, where he again
homesteaded on the farm now oc-
cupied by his son William, about
four miles from the vilage. Here he
stayed until nearly eighteen years ago
when he returned to Pilot Mound to
follow blacksinithiris. He continued
in business forhimself until about
six years ago, at which time he re-
tired therefrom, and as a pastime
bought and sold flour and feed, etc.,
until his demise. • -
When about ,twenty 'oars old, Mr.
Whenham married Miss Sarah Gar-
rett, of Hugon county, Ont., who
shared his joys and sorrows for sev-
eral years, both in Ontario aril Man-
itoba, until she died at their Wask-
ada home about twenty years ago,
leaving a family of two daughters
and three sons to the care of her
husband, namely—Mrs. Durkee Atch-
ison • of Waseca, Sask. ; Miss Char-
lotte Anne •Whenbam, of Souris,
Man, ; Joseph Whenham, who died
some time ago at the age of 37 at
Waskada:; John James and William
Sayers Whenham, of Waskada vicin-
ity.
1895 "-Mr. Whenham again en-
tered matrimony. becoming the se-
cond husband of Mrs. Richard San-
dercock (nee Sarah Jane Clark) who,
along with an only son (by thia mar-
riage) James Clark Whenham,—and
the four survivors mentioned above=
are left to mourn the loss of a kind
husband and fatherf .A brother (Ed-
ward) of Clinton, Oat., and a sister
(Frances) living hi Michigan, are also
bereft of an affectionate brother.
Deceased' was as member of the
Methodist church ever since his youth
and took a keen interest in the work
thereof, being of late one of the loc-
al congregation's most generous con-
tributors Ho was of a retiring
disposition and therefore declined tak-
ing any active part in public life.
Despite a fair Share of hardship. Mr,
ssconsiderable
Whenham ama ed
wealth, possessing at the close of
life some three and a half sections of
farm lands (here and at Birtle), be-
sides certain town property, while
his two sons at Waskada 'are said
bo be comfortably placed on farms
i that locality. By
of their awn' ' in th y
dint of perseverance and fortunate in
the choice of helpfhl partners, de-
ceased eventually overcame the many
trials incidental to•pioneer life and
succeeded in leaving his family well
provided for before taking his de-
