Many times she spoke about it in contrast of trips made to -day and how the times have, changed in the years since she and her parents settled at Sherbrooke, in the County of Lanark. After being there some years she and her brother, James, went to Dalhousie and from. there they came to Whitechurch which was nothing but bush. Other settlers were scattered about.

At the age of 27 years she was married to the late Mr. John. Gillespie who died some 39 years ago. She was known to be a great help to any in need or distress, caring for them when called, at any time, and also a great worker in the Presby- terian church and when union took effect went over to the United church. During the great war she knitted a large number of socks and did sewing for the soldiers, One of her grand- sons, Charles, now of Whitechurch, was in the conflict,- Her family were two sons, Charles died in Winghatn 27 years ago, and John at home on the homestead.'
