MISS CLARA E WOODS
(By our Bayfield correspondent)
Bayfield citizens were shocked
on Monday morning to learn of
the sudden passing of a respected
resident in the person of Miss
Clara Elizabeth .Woods, in her
67th year.
The deceased woman, who was
active and apparently of a rugged
constitution, was stricken about
eight o'clock in the morning, op-
posite the C. F. Rogers cottage, on
Charles Street and found in an
unconscious condition by Mrs.
Rogers. She was carried to a
lawn swing and Mrs. T. H. Mack,
Reg.N. cared for her. She expired
about half past eight before medi-
cal aid arrived. Death was due
to a heart attack.
She was the daughter of the
late Mr. and Mrs. William Woods
and had lived almost her entire
life in Bayfield. Two brothers,
W. and A. Woods, predeceased
her and she is survived by Albert
Woods and a half-sister, Mrs. J
Dresser.
The remains rested in the West-
lake Funeral Home, Zurich, where
the burial service was held on
Wednsday atfernoon.
The service was conducted by
Mr. John Martin, Hopsville, with
interment following in Bayfield
Cemetery. Pallbearers were E.
A. Westlake, George Little, Rene
Larson, William Dowson, William
R. Elliott and William Parker.
The sympathy of the commun-
ity is with those so suddenly
bereaved.
