Mabee, Dr.
J. E. |
MABEE - Entered into rest at his
home, Odessa, on Tuesday, August 20, 1940, Dr. J. E. Mabee, dear husband of
B. Decker, formerly of Whitby, and father of Dr. H. C. Mabee, Kingston,
Ontario. Funeral will take place from
his late residence on Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock (Daylight Saving
time). Friends and acquaintances
respectfully invited to attend.
Interment at Cataraqui Cemetery.
Masonic service.. Dr. J. E. Mabee Medical man For 53
Years - Funeral services for the late Dr. J.
E. Mabee, who died at his home in Odessa late Tuesday morning, will be
conducted at his residence Thursday afternoon at 2:30 o’clock (D.S.T.)
Interment will be at Cataraqui Cemetery and a Masonic service will be held. The death of Dr. Mabee removed the
oldest practising physician in this part of the country for it was for 53
years that Dr. Mabee practised his profession, always at Odessa. For 52 years of that he was medical health
officer of the Township of Ernestown, a record believed to be unequalled
anywhere in Canada. The late Dr. Mabee
was born May 22, 1851, in the Township of Louth, near Beamsville, the son of
Thomas Mabee of Prince Edward County and Amanda Tinlin of Beamsville. The family moved to Odessa when Dr. Mabee
was six years old and outside of the time he was in attendance at Queen’s
University, he had resided in Odessa.
He was educated there, going on to Queen’s University in the medical
school from which he graduated in 1887.
He went right back to Odessa, bought out the practice of Dr. Thomas
Beeman, started in to practise medicine and continued there ever since. Dr. Mabee was known all over the
countryside. He was a friend and
counsellor to the great majority of the people of the community and not only
attended to their medical and surgical needs but shared their troubles and
joys. He was the typical family
doctor, confidant and thoroughly interested friend, all rolled into one. Despite his long years of practice, he had
not actually retired from the profession, though of late he had not done
extensive work. He was ill in bed only a little more
than a week. He had been in Bloomfield
on August 9 to see his first cousin, P.A. Mabee, whose wife died last
May. They had been married 77 years. Honored Doctor - Dr. Mabee was a member of the
Frontenac Medical Association and the Lennox and Addington Medical
Association. He was a life member of
the Ontario Medical Association. Three
years ago he was honoured by the Frontenac Medical Society when he had
completed fifty years of medical practice.
A dinner was tendered in his honor at the Kingston General Hospital
and he was presented with a gold-headed cane and the warm congratulations of
members of the medical profession. He
was a member of the Independent Order of Foresters, Chosen Friends,
Independent Order of Odd Fellows and Prince Arthur Masonic Lodge, all of
Odessa. He was also a member of the
Eastern Star. During the first World War
he took a keen interest in the work of the Red Cross and played a leading
part of the activities of the Red Cross in the Odessa district. The deceased doctor had also taken an
active interest in the militia in his younger days and succeeded Lt.-Col. Cox
of Enterprise as commanding officer of the old 47th Regiment,
which had a company in Odessa. He was
a member of the United Church. He married twice. His first wife was Frances Storms of
Odessa, who died in 1888. To this
union were born one son, Dr. Horace Mabee, William Street, Kingston, and one
daughter, Grace, who died at the age of 16 years. Dr. Mabee married Beatrice Decker of Whitby
in 1903, who survives. |

Macdonald, Miss |
In Memoriam - The Late Miss Macdonald Miss Macdonald, only sister of Sir
John A. Macdonald, died at three o'clock on Sunday morning. About two weeks
ago her illness assumed a serious aspect, and since that time she has been
gradually growing worse. Her disease was the result of a heart affection from
which she suffered for many years. The deceased was seventy years of age,
several years younger than the premier. She was a resident of Kingston for
nearly half a century, residing with her brother while he lived here, and for
the past twenty years with her brother-in-law, Rev. Dr. Williamson, of
Queen's University. She was mild and gentle in character and disposition, and
beloved by all with whom she came in contact. She was a woman of much
ability, well read and brilliant in conversation. She bubbled over with
humour and wit, even eclipsing her eminent brother in rapartee. She was of
generous and noble impulse, and quite religious. For years she was connected
with St. Andrew's church. Although an invalid for the best part of her life,
she ever maintained patience and resignation. Sir John arrived here
yesterday, but his sister had departed this life. Mr. McIntrye broke the news
to him. The funeral occurs tomorrow morning.

Macdonald, Mrs. |
Death of Mrs. Macdonald The death of Mrs. Macdonald, relict of
the late Hugh Macdonald, Esq., and mother of the Hon. John a. Macdonald,
Ex-Attorney General, will be found noted in the appropriate place. This lady,
by her relationship to the ex-Premier, was known all over the Province, and
her death will be heard with regret by hundreds who have met her in social
intercourse and partaken of her hospitality. Thousands also of Mr.
Macdonald's personal friends will condole with him in his affliction at the
loss of an estimable parent. The deceased lady died at the advanced age of 85
years, and was perhaps the last connecting link of an old circle of Kingston
society. Her demise has deprived the city of one more of its oldest
inhabitants - those who remember Kingston in the early days of its
settlement, and are intimately acquainted with each subsequent development of
its growth into political and commercial importance. |

Funeral Tuesday afternoon at 2.30 o’clock. Friends and acquaintances respectfully
invited to attend. SLEPT PEACEFULLY AWAY - Death of Miss Mary Mackenzie, in
Rochester - In the midst of her studies, by which
she was preparing herself to become a medical missionary, Miss Mary
Mackenzie, eldest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Mackenzie, passed peacefully
to rest, at the Medical Missions Training School, Rochester, N.Y., on Friday
morning. She had been ill but a few
hours, with that treacherous disease, pneumonia, when she said to those with
her that she thought she would go to sleep.
Thus easily she slipped from the lower to the higher training
school. Miss Mackenzie, who was the
beloved elder sister of a family of nine children, graduated from Toronto
General Hospital training school for nurses, a short time ago and was but
twenty-five years old. Four brothers
and four sisters survive, Misses Elsie, Janet, Mima and Maggie at home; Allan, New York; William, St. Louis; Duncan and Kenneth, of this city. William Young, an uncle, and Allan
Mackenzie brought the body from Rochester to this city for burial; the funeral will take place to-morrow. Miss Mackenzie was a member of Chalmers
church and many friends will grieve deeply at her death. |

JAMES MADDEN - Was born in Belleville in the year 1852,
and died at Chatham, Ont., Dec. 19th, 1885. He was a brother of the late Rev. C.C.
Madden, of the London Conference Methodist Church of Canada. Bro. Madden was blessed with truly
Christian parents, and during his childhood was surrounded by holy
influences; at the age of nine years
he was converted at a camp meeting, held at Kingston, and from that time
rejoiced in the evidence of his acceptance through the Precious Blood. The writer became acquainted with Bro.
Madden while stationed at Chatham, where he was attending high school His thought and aspirations then were
toward the Methodist ministry. As a
student he was earnest, and his Christian example produced good effect. Through change of circumstances he was
unable to pursue his studies. He
removed to the North - West, and engaged in evangelistic work. On his return to Chatham he found the
Salvation Army at work, he saw then a field for service, and joined the
ranks; his promotion was rapid. He became staff-captain and divisional
officer of the Kingston Division. His
subsequent career, including his persecution and imprisonment at Montreal,
has been freely noticed in the Army papers.
Bro. Madden fell a prey to consumption and his death no doubt was
hastened by hard work and exposure. He
was sick for nearly twelve months. He
bore his illness with marked patience and resignation. On being asked if
Jesus was precious he replied “His presence fills the room.” His end was peace; without a sigh or groan he fell asleep in
Jesus. “He was a good man and full of
the Holy Ghost.” [signed] G.R.T. |

notwithstanding careful nursing and medical help. Before marriage, she was

spent most of her life here. They had a great trial to bear when they lost
their five children from 1876 to 1888. Last spring the late Mrs. Madden
underwent an operation to improve her health, but gradually grew weaker. A
woman of sterling qualities, wonderful character, very kind and sympathetic
with all whom she came in contact, and most highly respected by everybody who
knew her, she was a member and faithful worker of Trinity United Church. She
was the last one of her family, only a nephew and niece surviving.

After an illness of several months,
Mr. M. S. Madole passed away on Wednesday morning, Sept 18th. The end was not unexpected as he had been
suffering from Artero Sclerosis for some time. Mr. Madole had entered probably more fully
into the business, political, municipal and church life of the community than
any other man in Napanee. He served
successfully as Councillor and Mayor at the council board, and was at his
death a member of the Board of Education.
Twice he successfully contested Lennox in the Liberal Interest, his
opponent in both instances being the late T. G. Carscallen. For many years Mr. Madole had been one of
the strongest and most faithful members of Grace Methodist Church and Sunday
School and an ardent supporter of every movement to increase the spiritual
and material welfare of the church. In
business Mr. Madole was known all over the county and highly respected. Among other hardware dealers he was also
honoured by being elected president of their association. Besides his widow
he leaves three daughters, Mrs. Reddick, Napanee, Mrs., Allen, New York, and
Miss Maisie at home. The funeral took
place from his late residence Friday afternoon. Private service was held at the home and a
public service in Grace Church. –Napanee Express. |

Magee, Annabella (nee Anderson) |
Mrs. Annabella (Anderson) Magee Mrs. Robert Magee, daughter of James
Anderson and Ann Jane McCornock was born at Fermanagh, Ireland January 2 1829
and died at the Union appointment on the Adolphustown circuit, December 18,
1887. At the age of nineteen, she was married to Robert Magee of Donegal,
Ireland, July 13, 1848. They came to this country in the year 1869 and
settled first in Prince Edward County, on the Bay of Quinte, where they
remained one year. Then they moved to Adolphustown and in 1872 settled in the
old farm at Hay Bay where after years of labor she entered into rest. Mrs. Magee was the mother of eight
children, seven sons and one daughter. One son, Samuel, died in the triumphs
of the Christian faith a few years ago. I have seen many suffer much, but few
so patiently, so fully resigned, calm and peaceful, waiting the call of the
Master, as did Sister Magee. She spoke frequently and freely of the
approaching hour. She knew it was coming and knew it was near, and yet never
lost confidence in God or spoke of it without hope. She was always ready to
converse on the subject of religion. Her home was a cheerful place of rest
for the Methodist ministers in this country, and also in Ireland. Their house
was open for services, and I have heard her tell of many seasons of
refreshing she had in the meetings held in their own house in the old
country. Mrs. Magee was a Methodist of the
fourth generation. It is said by one who has the record of their ancestors
many years back that not one was addicted to drinking habits or using tobacco
in any form, and all have been either members of or adherents to the
Methodist Church. Sister Magee lived well, and died as
she lived. According to her request, her six sons bore her remains to the
gravel. As her pastor was unable to attend her funeral, her former pastor,
Rev. W.R. Young, preached a very comforting sermon from Matt. XXVIII 6: Come,
see the place where the Lord lay.
(Rev. M.J. Bates) Mrs. Magee was laid to rest in the
U.E.L. Methodist Church Cemetery in Adolphustown. Since 925, this church has
been known as the U.E.L. Memorial United Church of Adolphustown.

Bryce Magee Drowned at The Pines A sad accident happened on Hay Bay,
near the home of Mr. Andrew Magee, on Thursday afternoon, Jan. 7th, 1909,
which resulted in the death by drowning, of Bryce Alton Magee, the eldest
child of Mr. Joseph Magee, age 9 years past. Skating was good, and the
children of the neighborhood had been enjoying a good past time during the
forenoon and little Bryce, with his parents' consent, started out to enjoy
his afternoon. He had place on his skates and apparently directed his course
over a dangerous bar where he broke in; his screams were heard by his uncle,
who hastened with a boat to the rescue, only to find that the poor little
fellow had sunk to a watery death. His body was straightway recovered and
born in sadness to his home, where a broken hearted mother and father, who
had received the intimation earlier, received all that was left of their son,
so active in life but an hour and a half before. This death has cast a gloom
over the entire neighborhood, who in very large numbers showed their sympathy in every possible way. The funeral was
conducted by the pastor, W.S. Boyce, at 10 a.m. on Saturday, 9th, taking for
his text, "Even so it is not the will of your Father which is in Heaven,
that one of these little ones should perish." Little Bryce had been trained in a
religious manner and was a regular and an attentive member of the Sunday
School where in the summer on Decision Day, he with many others, decided for
Christ. It is no vain thing to serve the Lord. Mr. and Mrs. Magee mourn their
loss, but not without hope, they have the sympathy and prayers of the entire
community and many beside. Sad Drowning Accident The Pines, Jan. 11 – A very sad drowning
accident happened on Thursday, January 7th, when Bryce Alton,
eldest son of Joseph Magee, The Pines, a boy of nine years, after eating his
dinner left his home going to Hay Bay a short distance away, to skate. After
passing his Uncle Andrew’s, he skated into a crack in the ice, over a bar.
His uncle heard him call, but not recognizing it as a human voice, thought it
was an owl and looking around for the bird saw the little fellow disappear.
He reached the spot as soon as possible, help was secured but too late and in
a little more than an hour after he left his home, a bright, active boy, the
lifeless body was carried in to his sorrowing mother. An impressive service
was conducted at the home on Saturday by Rev. W.S. Boyce, Methodist minister,
after which the body was taken to Napanee vault to await interment. |

McGEE – At the Pines, on Nov. 9th,
Joseph McGee, aged forty-seven years. Death's messenger came with but
little warning on Tuesday, November 9th to Joseph Magee, at his home,
Belleview Farm, The Pines post office. Although he had not been in the best
of health for some time, Mr. Magee was able to be about and attend to his ordinary
duties, and on the Saturday preceding his death finished up his plowing and
other fall work. He did not complain before retiring on Saturday night, but
early Sunday morning he got up to attend to one of the children and was
seized with a hemorrhage of the brain. He was unable to get back into bed
without assistance and soon afterward lapsed into unconsciousness. Relatives
and a doctor were speedily summoned, but they could do but little for him and
he sank gradually until Tuesday morning, when he passed away shortly before 8
o'clock. In the opinion of the family doctor and his friends, the unfortunate
man's death was hastened by an incident which happened a few days before he
was taken ill. His team ran away from the front of the house as he was preparing
to drive into Napanee and he had a long chase after the horses. The
excitement caused his nose to bleed very freely, and from that time on he was
troubled with nose bleeds. Fretting over the death of his eldest son, Brice,
who was drowned in Hay Bay while skating last winter, is also thought to have
hastened the end, Mr. Magee not having enjoyed the best of health since that
unfortunate occurrence. The late Joseph Magee was a member of
one of the oldest and best known families in Lennox County, and being of a
genial disposition and generous almost to a fault, was highly esteemed by all
who had the pleasure of his acquaintance. He was born in Ireland 49 years
ago, but when a mere lad came to Canada with his father, the late Robert
Magee, who passed away two years ago. The family first located near Picton,
but very shortly afterward took up land at The Pines and has resided there
ever since. In politics deceased was a staunch Liberal, while in religion he
was prominently identified with the Methodist church. He was also a member of
the Orange Order, and one of the most public spirited residents of the
neighborhood in which he spent the greater portion of his life. A widow and
three small children survive him and they have the sincere sympathy of the
entire community. The funeral took place on Thursday of
last week, and was one of the largest seen in Lennox County in many years,
friends driving many miles to pay a last tribute of respect to the memory of
deceased. Among the mourners were relatives and friends from Toronto,
Hamilton, Picton, Napanee, Wolfe Island, Bath, Kingston and other places. An
impressive funeral service was conducted at the house by the Methodist
minister, after which the remains were taken to Napanee and place in the
vault. Later on they will be transferred to the family burial ground and
placed beside those of the father and son of deceased. The pall bearers were
five brothers, William, Andrew, John and Alex., all of the Pines, Robert, of
Toronto, and a brother-in-law, James Dickson, of Sillsville. Very sad indeed was the death of
Joseph McGee, “The Pines” on Tuesday morning, after but a few days illness.
Deceased took ill on Saturday night and when a doctor was summoned pronounced
the trouble hemorrhage of the brain. He was forty-nine years of age and
leaves a wife and three small children. About ten months ago the eldest son
was drowned. Deceased was one of a family of six brothers, all residents of

THE LATE MRS. JOHN MAGEE - Margaret
Elizabeth Lawson, beloved wife of John Magee, passed away at her home in
South Fredericksburgh on March the 29th . The daughter of the late
James Lawson and his wife, Mary Ann Melville, Mrs. Magee was born on a farm
adjoining the one on which she spent her married life. In her early childhood
her parents moved to Petrolia where her father was in business for some years
until their return to Napanee. She was married to John Magee on September 3rd
1889, theirs being the first marriage in the U.E. L. Church at Dorland. Mrs. Magee leaves to mourn her loss,
one sister, Mrs. D. S. Cowan, of Petrolia; an aunt, Mrs. R. J. McKee of Los
Angeles; her husband, one son, Bert, of Sillsville, and six daughters, the
Misses Hattie and Margaret, at home, Mrs. H. M. Hough of Sillsville; Mrs.
Floyd Vannest, of Hawley, Mrs. F. B. Wright and Mrs. William Henwood of
Conway. Mrs. Magee was much respected and
beloved in the community. She was a woman of ready wit and youthful spirit,
which kept her young in heart and mind to the last. Due to the proximity of
the Union Church the ministers, both Anglican and Methodist, were the
frequent recipients of her broad-minded hospitality. She was a woman of deep
religious convictions and strove to impress them upon her family. Her passing
has left a great gap in the family circle. The funeral service was held in the
U.E.L. Church, Dorland, from which she was carried to the cemetery, and laid
to rest beside her father. At Adolphustown, Wednesday, March
29th, 1939, Mrs. John Magee, in her 77th year. MRS. JOHN MAGEE SILLSVILLE – After an illness of less
than two weeks, Mrs. John Magee passed peacefully away at her home recently.
Mrs. Magee, whose maiden name was Margaret Elizabeth Lawson, was the eldest
daughter of the late James Lawson and Mary Ann Melville, and was born in
Adolphustown 76 years ago. During her childhood the family moved to Petrolia,
where her father was engaged in the oil business for a number of years, later
returning to this neighborhood. On September 3, 1889, she was united
in marriage to John Magee in the U.E.L. Methodist Church, and since then had
lived on the same farm. Besides her sorrowing husband, she is survived by one
son, R. J. Magee, and six daughters, Mrs. Harold Hough (Marion), Mrs. F.B.
Wright (Jessie), Mrs. Floyd Vannest (Edna), Mrs. W.R. Henwood (Elsie), and
Miss Hattie and Miss Margaret at home, also twenty grandchildren and one
sister (Hattie), Mrs. D.S. Cowan, Petrolia, and one niece, Mrs. William
Abrahart, Sarnia, and one aunt, Mrs. Rebecca MacKee, of Los Angeles, Calif.
Two brothers, John and James, and one sister, Ida, predeceased her. While not enjoying the best of health
for some years, she had been as well as usual all winter, and when the W.M.S.
of which she was a life member, met in her home on March 1, she led the
devotional part of the meeting. When she first contracted the prevailing
epidemic, pneumonia developed and proved fatal, in spite of all that medical
attention and loving care could do. The funeral services were conducted
by her minister, Rev. G.A. Puttenham, B.A., B.D. After a short service at the
house the cortege proceeded to the U.E.L. United Church, where Mr. Puttenham
gave a comforting message. Interment was made in the cemetery adjoining. The
bearers were her son, her four sons-in-law, and her eldest grandson, Douglas
Magee.

MAGEE – At South Fredericksburgh, 20th
Nov., Robert Magee, aged eighty-four years. PAST THREE SCORE AND TEN - Mr. Robert
Magee was born in the County of Donegal, Ireland, in the year 1823, and died
at The Pines, South Fredericksburgh, on November 20th, 1907,
having reached the ripe age of 84 years, 9 months and 6 days. The funeral was
held in the Union church, where in spite of the unfavorable condition of the
roads, and other obstacles, a large number of neighbors and friends gathered
to pay their respect to all that was mortal of the deceased. Six sons, viz.,
Robert, of Toronto; William, John, Andrew, Alexander and Joseph, all of The
Pines, acting as pall bearers, and one daughter, Mrs. J. Dickson, Hayburn,
mourn the loss of a kind-hearted and affectionate father. The funeral was
conducted by the Rev. W. S. Boyce, after which the body was placed in the
vault at Napanee, to be interred at a later date in the Methodist cemetery,
Adolphustown. The subject of this obituary was a good citizen, highly
respected, in religion a Methodist; in his Christian life he was devoted to
his Master, and the church of his choice. He was one of the principal men who
engaged in the erection of the Union church, and was one of the chief
supporters of God's cause in this community. A large number of friends
sympathize with the sons and daughter and relatives of the deceased,
believing however, that their loss was his gain. MAGEE - Robert Magee was born in
Donegal, Ireland, 1823, and died at “The Pines,” South Fredericksburgh,
November 20, 1907, at the advanced age of eighty-four years, nine months, and
six days. The funeral was held at the
Union Church, and was largely attended.
The body, which was laid in Napanee vault, will be buried in the
U.E.L. Methodist cemetery at Adolphustown.
Bro. Magee was a life-long Methodist, his early home in Ireland being
a regular place for worship. He was
highly respected by all, and was a man of pure life and deep piety, devoted
to the church of his choice, and a good supporter of it. He was alive to every good work. He leaves behind him a family of six sons and
one daughter to mourn his loss. We
believe that “He was faithful unto death,” as he longed for his Master’s
coming to adorn him with “a crown of life.”
The sorrowing friends have the sympathy of a wide circle of
friends. W.S. Boyce ROBERT
MAGEE - The subject of this memoir was born in Donnegal, Ireland, Feb. 14th,
1823. In 1848 he married Annabella Anderson, with whom he lied happily, till
she was called to the home above, in Dec. 1887. Their home was consecrated to
the worship of God, regular preaching service being conducted in it almost
from the time of their marriage till their removal to Canada in 1869. On
their arrival here they promptly connected themselves with the church of
their choice viz Methodist and many Methodist ministers will remember with
pleasure the genial welcome they always received at the Magee home. He was a
willing worker, and frequently during his illness expressed regret that he
was no longer able to serve the church. In 1871 he settled on the farm on the
shore of Hay Bay, South Fredericksburgh, where he remained till his death
Nov. 20th, 1907. His last days were spent with his youngest son, Alex where
all that tender hands could do to relieve his suffering was done. His last
words to his daughter-in-law were "God Bless You." They raised a
family of seven sons and one daughter. Samuel passed to the beautiful home
twenty-seven years ago. The remaining six sons, William, Robert, Andrew,
John, Joseph, and Alexander, bore all that was mortal of their father to his
last resting place. The daughter is Mrs. James Dickson, of Hayburn. Relatives
came from Hamilton, Toronto, Picton and Milford to pay their tribute of
respect to the departed. We cannot mourn for him, he was anxious to pass away
and be at rest. The funeral was in Union Church, Rev. W.S. Boyce officiating
with true brotherly sympathy.

Mallory, Ella & Harry |
Obituary - The fatal diphtheria has
made sad havoc in the home of Mr. Ezra A. Mallory, of Adolphustown. Ella the youngest child, a bright and
beautiful girl, in the 13th year of her age, fell a victim to its power on
the 18th Nov., 1889. During her brief
illness everything that the utmost love and tenderness could suggest was done
to save her life, but in vain. She was very sweetly resigned to the blessed
Saviour's will, and died in the triumphs of a child's confiding faith. On the evening of the day of little
Ella's funeral, Harry, the youngest boy, - a fine, promising young fellow, in
the 17th year of his age, was seized with the fatal malady; and while the promptest measures were adopted,
he sank rapidly, and on the 28th Nov. was laid to rest in the Methodist
burying ground, by the side of his sister whom he loved so well. If there be any consolation in
religion in the hours of our deepest anguish, it must surely be a comfort to
the bereft parents and friends to know that the dear children had so recently
knelt side by side at the Saviour's feet for salvation, and through the
simple faith of childhood had obtained the brightest assurance of their
acceptance with God. In his last
moments Harry gave the clearest evidence of the hope of eternal life, and
talked very sweetly of the reunion with his darling sister in the beautiful
mansions of light. They were lovely in
life, and in death undivided. For ever with the Lord, amen, so let
it be. H. Ash. |

Manion, Annie (nee
Gleason) |
Mrs. John Manion - Death once again has caused a
widespread sorrow throughout this community, on February 9th last,
also around her native country where she was born, in the person of Mrs. John
Manion, formerly Miss Annie Gleason.
She was of a loveable disposition, a person of rare Christian virtues,
whose life was an adornment, which dignified the sacred position of a wife
and mother, a holy life studded thick and fair with earthly deeds. She was a young woman, whose future life
seemed to be foreshadowed with every happiness, as her home seemed to always
have a ray of bright sunshine within, no matter how dark it seemed
outside. She was great of soul with a
keen intelligence, a generous heart, a loyal and energetic disposition, with an
unshakable will, she being the kind of a mother we all love to admire. Her kindness and strength of
character endeared her not only to her family, but also to the many friends
whom she always treated in a cordial manner. Her company was always agreeable
and attractive, and many were the tributes heard to her womanly character and
staunch faith; also messages of grief
and regret heard on all sides. So we
all send prayerful sympathy to her dear family, especially her mother and
sisters and poor dear little children, who have ever been the object of her
tender care and attention. So may her
Blessed Mother console these in her tender and loving way, until time gives
pleasure to the love that they all
will enjoy together for all eternity. The kindness of the neighbours is to
be remembered since her death offering a helping hand in different ways. the same was with herself, no sacrifice was
too great for her to show her good will in giving a helping hand to any one
who stood in need of it. Her funeral took place on Tuesday to
St. Patrick’s Church, where a solemn High Mass was sung by her Priest Father
McDonald, who administered the last rites of her Church to her on her dying
bed. The many spiritual offerings,
numbering sixty-seven, bore testimony of the esteem in which the deceased was
held. |

MANION - At Richmond, on Saturday,
February 9th, 1929, Annie Manion, aged 42 years and 8 months. OBITUARY - Miss Ida May Manion - Many hearts were saddened and shocked
on Monday morning, July 10th, when word was received that Ida
Manion had passed peacefully away to the Great Beyond, at her beautiful home,
near Selby, after a lingering illness, although for several years she had
been failing in health, the last two months being very trying. Despite all that loving hands and medical
skill could do to prolong her earthly flight, she passed away with a perfect
resignation to God’s will. Her
sufferings were very intense by times, but she bore them with great patience
and cheerfulness with a courage seldom exceeded. It seems so hard to see a sweet young
life like Ida’s cut off in the prime.
It seems so strange about a month ago her friends were summoned to her
bedside, fearing the end was near, but with wonderful recuperative power she
rallied again, and seemed much better in health, but a sudden change later on
seemed to follow, and terminated in her death. She was a member of the League of the
Sacred Heart and Altar Society. She
was also a member of the Women’s League, in which she was always much
interested. She was very fond of music
and flowers, and enjoyed the association of her friends. The funeral took place Wednesday
morning to St. Patrick’s Church, Napanee, where a solemn requiem mass was
sung by Reverend Father O’Connor for the repose of her soul. Her beautiful casket had a number of
religious offerings from her friends.
The pall-bearers were Messrs. Frank Denison, Shirley Lewis, Jack
Donovan, John Manion, Tom Manion and Mr. Bradshaw. |

- Pte. Richie M. Marlin was born in

Pte. Marlin was of a kind and loving disposition, always willing to
lend a helping hand, and was well liked by young and old of the neighborhood
in which he lived. Richie was one of
the brave boys who thought that liberty and freedom were better than life
under Prussian rule. He therefore
voluntarily left his father’s home and went to a foreign land to do his bit
for King and Country. A memorial
service was held on Sunday, June 24th, in Ebenezer Church. The church was crowded with sympathizing
friends, and the address was given by his Pastor, Rev. J. F. Everson, and was
full of sympathy and patriotism. It
was a masterly address from the text, Matthew 10:39, “He that findeth his
life, shall lose it; and he that loseth his life for my sake shall find
it.” He threw his living breast to stem
the German tide, This volunteer from Canada he as
veteran tried. He met the boast of William’s host, He met them hand to hand, This volunteer from Canada, This boy of our land. When men come back from war’s grim
track, And silent is the gun; I’ll look with pride on him that
died, And say he was my son. |

MARY A. MERRETT - The beloved wife of Israel Marshall, died
in the Lord August 20th, 1885, at their residence, Caistor
township, aged forty years five months and twelve days. Our sister was married to him that now
mourns his loss for nineteen years.
The gap that death has made is great, as there are eight of an
offspring left behind, and a part of whom are very tender in days and years,
and need much care. The departed
sister was brought to God at the early age of twelve years, and has been a
member of the Church ever since. In
early life the servants of God made their home at her father’s house. And it was no doubt a source of comfort to
her to remember the fervent prayers
that were offered for her in early life by the missionaries that scattered
the Gospel truths through this part of the work. Her aged father passed on before her some
five years, and will greet her on the other shore. For some ten years our departed sister has
been in an uncertain state of health, and been thus reminded that her end was
somewhat nigh. Rev. Mr. Kennedy
visited and prayed with her, and gave testimony at the funeral of her bright
prospects for the land of the holy.
Though much desired, her useful life could not be spared. Her remains are deposited in the graveyard
at Ker Church; but her spirit is with Christ.
The funeral was large, and was conducted by Rev. Mr. Duff and Rev. Mr.
Kennedy. The pastor discoursed from
the words, “All flesh is as grass.”
Many tokens were shown by those present of their deep respect that
they had for Sister Marshall. May her
family and neighbors meet her in heaven, when our toils are over. [signed] E. Whitworth. |

having developed and maintained one of the best farms in the township. His judgement was often sought relative to
crop and soil conditions, of which he had made a study. His home was an open house to anyone who
cared to come under his roof. He was a

six years, spent on a farm near London, Ont., nearly all his life had been
spent in Richmond, near Napanee. Mr. McCaul was a successful farmer and for
many years he and Mrs. McCaul brought produce to the Napanee market. AS a
result they became well known to a large number of town and country people
and were very highly respected by all who knew them. For several years Mr. and Mrs. McCaul
were members of St. Andrew's Church until it was disbanded and Mr. McCaul
recently was an adherent of Grace United Church. His wife, formerly Ellen Norris, died
in March, 1937, and Mr. McCaul leaves three daughters, Mrs. Frank Richmond,

DISTRICT NEWS – On Wednesday of last
week, Mr. James McDonald, Jr., of Tamworth, while engaged on a drive of logs
on Salmon river, about two miles from Arden, lost his life while assisting in
breaking a “jam.” He slipped off the
log he was standing upon, and, when he came to the surface was struck by
another log and knocked under the jam.
His body was recovered in about an hour. On Wednesday afternoon the 7th
inst., the people of this place and its vicinity were greatly shocked by the
sad news that Jimmy (James) Macdonald was killed about noon that day. Shortly the mournful tale was proved to be
true, when by friends and relatives the body was brought home. Sorrow filled the hearts of all who knew
Jimmy, when the news of his untimely death was announced. This young man was within a few days to be
17. He had his growth young, and was
employed as one of the river drivers in the Rathbun firm. This accident, it is said, happened near
Cross Lake by falling into the stream, and struck senseless by one of the
logs, so that he sank and drowned.
Being young and ambitious, probably he exposed himself more than was
needed. His life gave a fair prospect
of manhood, but in the spring time of that life suddenly it was taken
away. On Thursday afternoon a large
number of friends and connections assembled at the house for the funeral to
pay their last respects to the departed.
The services were conducted by J. H. Jones at Beaver lake school
house, text Luke xii, 40, after which the remains of the departed one were
laid in Thompson’s cemetery near Beaver lake. The awful hour when ye shall die Angels themselves cannot declare, Perhaps ‘tis that now gliding by, “Mortals for death prepare.” |

Mrs. Henrietta McDowall Has Passed
Away In the death of Mrs. Henrietta
McDowall, which occurred at her residence, Princess street on Thursday
afternoon, one of Kingston’s oldest residents has passed into the silent
beyond. The late Mrs. McDowall was born in Coteau Du Lac in 1817 and was of
good U.E. Loyalist stock, her forbears having accompanied Sir William
Johnston, at the time of the revolution. Her grandfather, fighting Capt. Hugh
Macdonnell, led the attack against Ogdensburg in 1812 and her father, who was
lieutenant under Macdonnell, was severely wounded in that attack. She was
cousin of Sir Roderick Cameron and niece of Archibald Macdonnell, then
collector of customs at this port, and married James A. McDowall, who was an
active business man in this city for many years. Mrs. McDowall was one of the
original members of Chalmers church, only one of whom now survives. Of a large family, Mrs. McDowall is
survived by Miss McDowall and Mrs. N.C. Polson, of this city, besides
numerous grandchildren.

McDOWALL – In Kingston, on March 13th
at the residence of his mother, Mrs. J.A. McDowall, Princess street, James A.
McDowall, Barrister of Sarnia, Ont. Interment at Memorial Church,
Fredericksburgh, Friday morning. Death of J.A. McDowall Came of an Interesting Family - An
Old Queen's Man The community will learn with great
regret of the death of James A. McDowall, barrister, Sarnia, which occurred
on Wednesday morning at his mother's residence in this city. He had lived in
Sarnia many years, where he had practiced his profession. Up to a year ago he
enjoyed excellent health, but about that time symptoms of the malady which
caused his death began to show themselves. During the fall and early winter
he grew worse, and about two weeks ago, his brother, Robert McDowall, went to
Sarnia and brought him to his mother's. After a few days rest among his
friends, he appeared to revive somewhat, but soon he began to sink, and
yesterday the end came. Mr. McDowall graduated at Queen's in
1867, and after graduation entered on the study of law in the office of
Campbell, Mowat & Macdonnell. He was also a graduate of the old Kingston
military school. During his college and law courses he was one of a group of
young men who took special interest in the old alma mater society, when that
body was more of a debating and literary temper than at the present. That was
a feature of the old college days, a profitable one; and none enjoyed the
meetings more than the late Mr. McDowall. After graduating in law he began
practise in Sarnia, where he was much esteemed as a citizen. He was a man of pure spirit, and
scrupulously honorable in his professional relations. Though somewhat reticent
of speech, yet he was a very interesting man in conversation, because of his
wide reading, cultured taste and judgment. He came of an interesting line.
His grandfather was Rev. Robert McDowall, the first Presbyterian minister in
central Canada, and the organizer of St. Andrew's church, of this city. The
Memorial church at Fredericksburgh was built in honor of his name and memory. The late Mr. McDowall was connected
with St. Andrew's church, Sarnia, and the last interview between Dr. Tomson,
the pastor, and himself, as they spoke of the calm, strong assurance in which
the christian lives and dies, was uncommonly touching, and when the end drew
near he was not afraid. His remains will be buried with his departed kindred
in the family burying plot at Fredericksburgh Memorial church. Mrs. N.C.
Polson, of this city is a sister of the late Mr. McDowall. Sincere sympathy
is extended to his venerable mother and the other bereaved relatives.

McDowall, John L. |
Dr. J. L. McDowall, Noted Sportsman,
Buried in Kingston. Remembered by many in Ottawa as
Prominent Football and Hockey Star in Early Nineties. The funeral took place at Kingston
today of Dr. John L. McDowall of Perth Amboy, N.J. He died there on
Monday. He earned distinction as an
eye, ear, nose and throat specialist.
He was 65. Dr. McDowall will be remembered by
many in Ottawa as an outstanding athlete. He was a member of the old Granite
football team of Kingston and Queen's University football team, and played
often in Ottawa in the early 1900's against the old Ottawa College and Rough
Rider teams. He played on the famous
all-Canadian football team at Buffalo in 1900. He was also a fine hockey player and
was a member of the old Frontenac and Queen's University hockey teams,
starring along with Hon. Dr. R.J. Manion, with whom he maintained a close
friendship. Later his hobbies were
deep sea fishing and big game hunting.
After graduation from Queen's he was an intern at the Manhattan Eye
and Ear Hospital, following which he was connected with the Presbyterian
Hospital at New York. He carried out many special works for the Washington
government. For many years he was in private
practice. Dr. McDowall was a son of the late
Robert J. McDowall of Kingston and a great grandson of the Rev. Robert J.
McDowall, a United Empire Loyalist in 1798, and the pioneer Church of
Scotland minister in Kingston, his parish at that time extending from Kingston
to Queenston. He leaves to mourn his loss two

McDowall, Rev.
Robert |
At his residence in Fredericksburgh
on 3rd inst., the Rev.
Robert McDowall, aged 73. The Rev. Robert McDowall, who died on
August 3, was born in 1768 in Saratoga N.Y. of Scotch parents. His father,
having been a zealous loyalist, was detained in prison by the Revolutionary
party during the war, and lost all his property which appears to have been
valuable. He commenced his studies, first at Grammar School after leaving
which he went to Williams College in Massachusetts, and completed his studies
under the late Rev. Mr. Romeyn, Prof. of Theology at Schenectady, under the
General Synod of the Dutch Reformed Church. At the request of those settlers
belonging to that church who, after the American Revolution, emigrated to
Canada, he was ordained by the Classis or Presbytery of Albany, and appointed
to labour amongst them as a Missionary, coming to Canada in 1798 to the
neighbourhood of the Bay of Quinte. MCDOWELL, Rev. Robert, died at his
residence, Fredericksburgh, Aug 2 1841, age 73. DIED - At his residence in
Fredericksburgh, last evening the Reverend Robert Macdowell, aged 73, much
regretted and universally esteemed.

McDowall, Robert J. |
McDOWALL – On Monday, January 25th,
at Oakland, Cal., Robert John McDowall, aged fifty-nine years. Died Far Away – Robert J. McDowall
Has Passed to Rest Robert J. McDowall died in Oakland,
California, at one o’clock Monday morning. This sad intelligence came by
telegram Monday noon to his son, Dr. John L. McDowall, and was a great shock
to the family, for it was not thought that Mr. McDowall was in any immediate
danger. Stricken down a few months ago by an almost incurable disease, Mr.
McDowall, when he had sufficiently recovered to travel, was ordered south in
the hope that a year spent in a warmer climate would place him on the road to
health. On December 5th, he and Mrs. McDowall left Kingston, en
route for Oakland, California, where they stayed with Dr. Price, a Canadian
friend, formerly of this district. On Friday a telegram to Dr. McDowall told
of his father’s dangerous condition, and advised him to leave for the south.
A later message said that Mr. McDowall was much better and for the doctor not
to leave. The followed the sad news of his passing away. The late Mr. McDowall was a son of
R.J. McDowall, a former furrier and a grandson of Rev. John McDowall, the
pioneer Presbyterian clergyman of Central Ontario, to whom a memorial church
was dedicated several years ago at Adolphustown. He was in the sixtieth year
of his age, and was a native of Kingston, residing here all his life, with
the exception of a few years. For the past twenty-five years, Mr. McDowall
was in the music business, and built up an extensive district trade, having
branch stores in Kingston and in Cape Vincent, N.Y. H was a great fraternal
society man, in fat it is doubtful if there is another in Eastern Ontario so
widely connected in that regard. In the Sons of Scotland he was district
deputy grand chief; he was treasurer of the Kingston Circle, No. 105,
Canadian Home Circle, and a member of the Oddfellows, Ancient Order of United
Workmen, Canadian Order of Chosen Friends, Royal Arcanum, Masonic Order, and
St. Andrew’s Society. Deceased married Miss Lazier, of
Belleville, who survives, with three daughters and two sons: Mrs. McFarland,
Markdale, Ont.; Mrs. J.J. Roberson, Kingston; Elda, Dr. John L. and Robert J.
at home. Deceased’s mother is also living in Kingston. His only sister is
Mrs. N.C. Polson, University Avenue. The late Mr. McDowall was for many
years a member of Chalmers’ church, and latterly of St. Andrew’s. In politics
he was a liberal. For many years, Mr. McDowall was connected with the
Kingston public library, of which board he was several times president. He
was a well-read man, and a polished after-dinner speaker. Dr. McDowall will go to Chicago to
meet his mother and the mains. The funeral will likely take place on Saturday
or Monday next.

citizens of Camden Township, passed away on Thursday morning, Oct. 5th,
in the person of William J. McGill, who was born in the township, near
Centreville, on February 12th, 1848, and with the exception of a
few short visits to other points, spent all his life therein. He was one of a family of ten children of
the late Thomas McGill and his wife, Mary King, and was carefully trained in early life in
those virtues that go to make useful citizens. On November 5th, 1875, he
was united in marriage with Annie Copeland.
On his farm he worked faithfully and with method and perseverance
succeeded in building up a valuable property.
In the church he was ever a reverent worshipper and attended
faithfully to the work of the various offices given him. Of a quiet and somewhat reserved
disposition he never sought public office, but his counsel was often of worth
to those filling office. His home was
one in which godly influence was ever exerted for the good of this family and
friends. For nearly forty years, he
was treasurer of L. O. L. No 756 and for many years a member of the John W.
Bell Black Preceptory No. 725 The funeral service of Saturday last,

of friends and relatives were held in the home and the Methodist Church and were conducted by

he was a member. The pall-bearers were
all Orangemen, as follows, Robert
Wilson, Robert Brown, Joseph Tate, Solomon
Clancy, Jacob Doupe and John W. Reid.
To cherish the memory of his useful and godly life, there remain in
addition to his wife, two sons, Thomas E. and Geo. A., both of
Centreville; four daughters, Mrs. F.
C. Gerow, Mrs. Fred Milligan, both of Centreville; Mrs. J. Toshack, of Drumheller Alta., and

of Centreville, when the many friends of W. T. McGill heard of his death on
Saturday, March 21st, in Kingston General Hospital, following an
operation for appendicitis on March 18th. Although he seemed to be in perfect health
up to the time of his operation, all that medical skill and loving hearts and
hands could do was of no avail. He was born on September 23rd,
1891 at Centreville, the eldest son of Mrs. McGill and the late Robert
McGill. The funeral service which was
largely attended, was held in Centreville United Church, on Monday, March 23rd,

DISTRESSING CASUALTY - On Wednesday,
the 15th October, as Mr.
Jas. M’Gonion and his two sons, Alexander, aged 20 and James, aged 10 years
were returning in a sail boat from Kingston to Adolphustown (the place of
their residence) when nearly opposite Herchimer’s Point, the boat, as it is
supposed, unfortunately capsized, and all three of them were drowned. The body of the oldest son was found on
Monday last, and that of the father on Wednesday, and decently interred. It is supposed the body of the youngest son
is in the boat. They were natives of
Scotland, from whence they emigrated about eight years ago. A widow and two or three children are left
to mourn this afflicting dispensation of Divine Providence, but we feel happy
in saying they do not “mourn as those without hope.” |

McHenry, Ellen (nee Campbell) |
In Memoriam – The Late Mrs. McHenry,
Napanee The Napanee Beaver gives a sketch of
the Mrs. McHenry, who died of a broken heart consequent upon the death of her
favorite son. The deceased was a daughter of Archibald and Catherine Campbell
and was born in Adolphustown on March 29th, 1812. She married Alexander McHenry at
Napanee about the year 1839. Mr. McHenry was for a time engaged in the lumber
business on the Ottawa, but finally settled in Napanee and devoted himself to
the dry goods business, in which he continued until failing health compelled
him to retire. He died in the year 1847, leaving three small children to the
care of his wife. The succeeding years of her widowhood were a long series of
devotion to her children. Her aim was to secure their eternal welfare and to
give them a substantial education and it was a great consolation that she
succeeded so well. She was herself converted when about sixteen years of age
and from that time forward was a member of the Methodist church and an
earnest, consistent christian. The brisk cottage in which she resided, on the
corner of Centre and Mill streets, was erected by her husband nearly fifty
years ago and she lived the continually until her death. It was either the
first of second brick house erected in Napanee.

the robe of rest, leaving us treasured memories. She leaves to mourn her loss, one
daughter, Mrs. George Bush, Sharpes' Corners, two sons, James W. McIlwaine,
Adolphustown, and George A. McIlwaine, Toronto, also a sister Mrs. Catherine

plot at Riverview Cemetery, Napanee. Weary at last of the long day's toll,
She has laid life's burdens down to rest in the land of sorrows free, the
land of the soul's renown. She has learned the secret eternal,
That death's but an open door That swings to let heaven's glory
through As we drift to that better shore.

THE LATE MRS. McINTYRE - On Monday evening, shortly after six
o’clock, Mrs. John McIntyre, Sydenham street, entered into rest. Her death was not unexpected for her
illness had extended over a year, though she had somewhat recovered after an
interval. Part of December and January
she spent at Saranac Lake N.Y. with her daughter, Mrs. Bruce Carruthers, but
was unimproved. Her last illness
extended over several weeks, and no hope was held out for recovery. The late Mrs. McIntyre’s maiden name was
Harriet Wrigley, and she was born at Adolphustown. She was married twice, her first husband
being the late James Macpherson, crown
lands’ agent here. In 1876, she was
married to Mr. McIntyre, who survives.
Mrs. Carruthers was her only child.
Mrs. McIntyre was very much beloved by a wide circle of friends, who
will mourn the loss of one who had always been one of the city’s social
leaders, and a prominent figure in church and philanthropic work. She was a devout member of St. Andrew’s,
but was ever ready to assist in the furtherance of any good work beyond the
confines of her own church. Mrs.
McIntyre was a rare combination of gentleness and strength, full of tact and
wise judgment, always sympathetic, and her passing from our midst has left a
void in Kingston. The funeral service
will be held at 2.30 p.m. tomorrow, Wednesday at the family residence,
Sydenham street. |

JAMES ROBERT McKIBBON - Son of John McKibbon, was born in
Packenham, Ontario, December 21st, 1874. In 1878 the family came
to Manitoba, and settled in Meadow Lea.
In 1884 he became the subject of converting grace, under the ministry
of Rev. J. H. Rattan, and ever after presented such a beautiful Christian
life as demonstrated his union with Christ the Vine. After a long and painful illness, which
lasted over a year, and was borne with the patience of an aged saint, he
sweetly and triumphantly entered into the heavenly rest, on the 6th
of September, 1886. His last utterance
was “Blessed Jesus, take me home speedily if it is thy will.” Thank God, our people still die well. On the 8th his body was borne to
its last resting place by a large and deeply affected concourse of people,
where we laid him to rest until the Master calls him forth robed in
resurrection grandeur. May God console
the parents, and prepare them to meet him on high. F. M. FINN |

erectness that might well be copied by many young men. On February 22nd, Mr.
McKim was seized with neuralgia of the heart, and for a number of days he
suffered severely, until death relieved him. Mr. McKim was a man of fine
physique, being over 6 feet in height, and was one of a family of five
brothers, all fine men, the sons of the late John and Lydia McKim, of
Switzerville, who were of the old U.E.L. stock. The deceased was married to Miss Jane

ago at Athens, Ontario, and was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Joseph H.
McLaughlin. He attended school at
Athens and graduated from the Ontario College of Dentistry in Toronto, in
1917. All his professional life was
spent in Napanee. He was married twice and was
predeceased by his first wife Margaret McMillan, leaving one daughter, Floy,

Universal sorrow is expressed on all
sides in the irreparable loss which Dr. Ross V. McLaughlin has sustained in
the death of his wife, which took place at the Kingston General Hospital on
Thursday evening. Deceased was taken to the hospital last week and word was
received on Thursday afternoon conveying the good tidings that her condition
was improving nicely. Her sudden death in the evening was a severe shock to
her many friends here. The late Mrs. McLaughlin, who, before
her marriage a little over a year ago, was Miss Tena Richardson, daughter of
Mr. R. and the late Mrs. Richardson, South Napanee, was one of the most
popular young ladies in Napanee For a number of years prior to her marriage
she was a faithful worker in the many departments of Grace Church,
particularly the Young People’s Society, the Mission Circle and the Mission
Band. She was also a faithful member of the choir, always being in her
accustomed place on the Sabbath day. Since her marriage she still
maintained her active interest in several departments of the young people’s
work and her sudden passing has cast a gloom over the community. Much sympathy is expressed for the
bereaved husband who with a motherless child two days old are left to mourn
the loss of one whose personality captivated everyone who knew her. The
remains were brought to Napanee, the funeral taking place today from her late
residence, John Street, to Riverview cemetery.

Wm. McLaughlin Mr. Wm. McLaughlin, well known among
Napanee’s younger citizens, passed away at his home on John St., on Saturday
morning. Mr. McLaughlin has been
ailing since the New Year from pernicious anaemia, so that there was no hope
for his recovery from the first.
Gradually growing weaker as the disease progressed, he finally
succumbed on Saturday. Mr. McLaughlin was the son of the
late Ephraim McLaughlin, who predeceased him by about a year, and Mrs.
McLaughlin, the ticket agent for the C.P.R. in Napanee. Mr. McLaughlin at the time of his death was
employed as Express Agent at the station. He was just in the prime of life and
had all along been a keen athlete and intensely interested in the athletics
of the town and vicinity. At the time
of his death he was the President of the town Hockey Club. He was as well a member and active worker
of the Oddfellows organization, to which he devoted a good deal of his time. There survives him, his wife
(formerly Miss Grace Oliver), Napanee, his mother and two sisters. The funeral was held from his late
home on Monday afternoon. The service
at the house was of a private character.
The Oddfellows and the Hockey Club in uniform, accompanied the body to
St. Andrew’s Church, where a public service was held. Mr. Caldwell and Mrs. Valkman sang “Jesus
Lover of My Soul” as a duet. The hymns
were the same as were sung at his father’s funeral a year ago. Mr. Wilson spoke of Mr. McLaughlin’s life
and athletic activities, and spoke words of comfort to the sorrowing wife and
family. After the Church service the
Oddfellows conducted their funeral rites, and the procession re-formed and
proceeded to Riverview cemetery, where interment was made. The bearers were Wm. Galt, Wm.
Hunter, W. S. Wilson, A. Kimmerly, Limbert Graham and Fred Knapp. The sympathy of the community goes

McLeod, Mehetabell |
MEHETABELL CARTER - Was born in Cape Breton, in 1807, her
parents having come over from the State of Massachusetts, as they were U.E.
Loyalists. In 1827, she was joined in
bonds of holy matrimony to the late Malcom McLeod, who had come from Scotland
(his native land) to his country in 1800.
About 1834 they moved to the western part of his Province, and settled
in Goderich, Huron county. After a few
years spent in the State of Michigan, United States, they finally located, in
1845, in the township of Raleigh, county of Kent. They identified themselves with the then
Wesleyan Methodist church - and first among those with whose ministry they
were favored, the Rev. Dr. Cochran, now of Japan, was held in fond remembrance.
After nearly fifty years of wedded life, she was left to finish the journey
alone, and yet not alone, for she trusted in the promise of him who hath
said, “I will never leave thee nor forsake thee.” An illness of a very severe character
prostrated her on March 19th, 1886, resulting in her death, April
10th. She bore it with
Christian fortitude, though often praying the Master, if it were his will, to
release her, and her request was granted.
On April 12th, her remains were laid away in Maple Leaf
Cemetery, Chatham. The funeral sermon
was preached at Union Hall, Raleigh, on Easter Sunday, by the Rev. J. G.
Scott, Chairman of the District. The
text was Micah ii. 10. “This is not
your rest.” He repeated during his
sermon the following from the pen of C. Mackay, which contains the gist of the
discourse. [Poem follows] [signed]

McMillen, Robert |
ROBERT McMILLEN - In the death of the
subject of this obituary we have another example of the triumph of faith over
sin and death. Robert McMillen was
born in the county of Antrim, Ireland, in the year 1807. When but a youth he gave his heart to God,
associated himself with the Church, and became a laborer with its pale. He was soon appointed to the position of
class-leader, which he continued to hold until the hour of his decease. When about twenty-one years of age he was
married to Sarah McMillen, a lady of high Christian virtue, and although of
the same name, was no relation of his own.
In the year 1848, with his wife and family of nine children, he came
to his country and settled near where he sleeps today. Only two of this large family, Mrs. Starr,
of Norwood, and Mr. Thomas McMillen are left to follow in the footsteps of
their now sainted parents. Father
McMillen was a man of earnest piety, very much attached to the cause of
God; very seldom was he absent from
the means of grace, and thought no sacrifice too great for the pleasures of
the sanctuary. As a result his light
shone brightly, and when the end drew near he was found ready. His final illness was not protracted. His pastor, Rev. Mr. Gee, on the eve of his
leaving home for a few weeks, in company with the writer, visited him and
found him very happy and fully trusting in Jesus. When for the last time we visited him he
was full of joy, notwithstanding great physical weakness; we sang together that beautiful hymn, “The
far away home of the soul,“ when with ecstatic joy he exclaimed, “Glory,
glory!” We then knelt by his bedside
and prayed together, feeling, in spite of the gloom, that death had already
lost his sting. A short time afterward
he calmly breathed his last in the 78th year of his age. [signed]

McMullen, George
Barrett |
The death of George Barrett McMullen,
third son of the late George W. McMullen, leaves a deep sense of personal
loss to his many friends and acquaintances.
While at school Barrett McMullen was a great favorite, and as the
years went by deep rooted became the love and esteem of every man, woman and
child in the town who had the privilege of coming in touch with him. During the few weeks of his illness, great
was the strain felt by all and anxiety was visibly expressed from day to day
on the faces of almost every person of his native town. For some years he was engaged in
endeavouring to carry on the business of an extensive farm which had been
started by his father, the details of which were diligently attended to by
him. The church, the homes, the musical
circles – nay many places not only in the immediate town but in all the
county, will feel a void by his removal.
In 1909 he married Miss Herbertha Roblin, only daughter of the Rev.
Herbert Roblin of Boston, who with a son and three daughters survive
him. The deep and heartfelt sympathy
of the whole town go out to the wife, the mother, sister and four brothers
and his immediate relatives. |

Death of Mr. J. B. McMullen – The sad
news of the sudden death of Mr. James Bates McMullen was announced in Picton
by telegram on Saturday morning. Mr.
McMullen had resided at Cairo, Ill., since January last and had even in that
short time made many warm friends. He had of late been unusually cheerful and
well and no thought of a sudden close to his active life entered the mind of
any who knew him. His son, Frederick
B. McMullen, was with him for several days during the last part of June and had bidden him
good-bye on Monday of last week. July 4 (Friday) was a national holiday and
Mr. McMullen invited some friends to a picnic on the Missouri side of the
river opposite Cairo. A pleasant day
was spent and the party was preparing to return. One gentleman belated by business had
ridden a wheel. It was suggested that
his bicycle be tied to the carriage and he ride back with the others. Mr. McMullen and he were doing his when the
end came, and he sank lifeless to the ground.
There was no struggle, and in a moment he who had been the life of the
pleasant party was called away. It was
his oft expressed wish that when his end came, it should be as it was. The remains were brought to Picton and the
funeral took place from the residence of Mr. H. C. McMullen on Tuesday. The services at the funeral were largely
attended by his wide circle of friends and relatives, who bid a long farewell
to one whose life was filled with kindness for all who encountered him. Mr. McMullen was married in 1870 to Mary E.
Bogart of Adolphustown, the only daughter of the late L. L. Bogart. She died in 1873 leaving one son, Frederick
Bogart McMullen of Chicago. In 1891
Mr. McMullen married Mrs. Sylvia Patterson who survives him. She was with him at his death and in her
grief has the profoundest sympathy of all who knew them both, and who can
thus appreciated her acute sorrow. The
services at the house were conducted by Rev. S. J. Shorey and N. A.
McDiarmid, of Deseronto, the former a brother-in-law of the deceased, and the
latter an old friend. The pallbearers
were of his immediate family:
Frederick B. McMullen, his son;
his three brothers, H. C. and George McMullen of Picton, and Roger B.
McMullen of Chicago; and his
brothers-in –law, Rev. S. J. Shorey of Picton, and M. C. Bogart of
Napanee. The members of the A.O.U.W.
lodge attended in a body and added their impressive ceremony to the usual
services at the interment. The
deceased had he lived would have completed his sixty-first year on the
twentieth of August. |

Mrs. James McMurren, of Adolphustown,
died on Monday last at the Kingston hospital, where she went a short time ago
for treatment. She was about forty years of age, and leaves a sorrowing
husband, but no family. The funeral takes place today. Obituary - Mary Ann McMurrin wife of Mr. James McMurrin of
Gosport, Ontario, was born in Athol, Prince Edward County, and died in the
hospital at Kingston, after undergoing a severe surgical operation on Oct.
21st, aged 46 years. The daughter of Methodist parents, she was converted to
God and joined the church during revival services held by the now sainted
Richard Potter, at what is now known as Glenora, in 1864. Married to her now
sorrowing husband in 1874, they spent the first part of their married life in
South Fredericksburgh, afterwards settling on the farm at Gosport, directly
opposite the old Hay Bay Church, the first Methodist church built in Upper
Canada. Sister McMurrin was afflicted for about five years, bearing her
sufferings with wonderful patience, exhibiting and manifesting the grace of
submission to the Divine will. She has left an excellent name for christian
integrity; she was a loving and faithful wife and an ardent worker and
supporter of the church. Deceased was greatly interested along
with her husband in the building of the new Hay Bay church, built to
supersede the two old churches, one known in olden times as Parks' Chapel,
the other as Gosport. The day of the dedication was a great day for her. None
worked harder, none provided more liberally than our lamented sister. She was
not permitted, however, to worship in it very often. Rev. Dr. Ryckman, of Kingston, kindly
ministered to her while at the hospital. To him and to her husband she gave
her dying testimony, and then departed to be forever with the Lord. The funeral was largely attended, the
sermon preached by the writer, in the new church, Hay Bay, from the latter
part of 12th verse of the eighth of Ecclesiastics. It was true in her case. T.

Aged Citizen Passes - James McMurrin Napanee lost an aged and highly
respected citizen on Thursday, September 12th, 1928, when Mr. James McMurrin
passed away. Mr. McMurrin had been in failing health for some time, but in
spite of his nearly eighty four years, he was able to be around, read the
papers, and take an interest in life almost up until the time of his death.
He was around as usual and there was no indication of any change when he
retire on Wednesday, but early in the morning he slept quietly away. In the passing of Mr. Murrin one more
link with the past has been severed. He came with his parents to this country
in 1854, when only ten years of age, from County Monahan, Ireland. It was
long before the days of Leviathans and Berengarias. It took the family about three months in a sailing vessel to
reach this country. Locating in Kingston, Mr. John McMurrin, the father of
the deceased, secured work as a stone mason. But after four years he moved to
Adolphustown, and worked on the Gibbs farm. Later on they bought the Cole
farm on the north side of Hay Bay in Gosport, and there they spent most their
lives. When John McMurrin died Mr. James McMurrin inherited the property, and
continued to dwell there until 1905, when he sold out and removed to Napanee.
The deceased was an ardent Protestant, and member of the Orange Order, and an
enthusiastic Royal Arch Mason. He was as well a member of St. Andrew's United
church. all his life he had been interested in the Church and religious
matters and continued to attend their meetings as long as he was physically
able. The funeral was held from his late
home, Thomas Street, on Saturday and was conducted by Rev. A.J. Wilson,
Pastor of St. Andrew's Church and by the Masonic Order. The body was taken to
Picton for burial, where it was met by members of the Picton Masonic Lodge
and friends who participated in the last rites. He is mourned by his widow, and by a
large host of friends to whom he had become well known during his long
career.

gladness have gone out of the home. During the service Mrs. and Miss G.

Me." The pall bearers, friends of the deceased, were Earle Howell, Jack
Howell, Frank Mellow, Ross Joyce, Clare Snook and Earle Walmsley. Floral

Sunday, Jan. 12th, 1913, Mrs. Thomas Mellow, aged 45 years. Georgeana Card - Beloved wife of Mr.
Thomas Mellow, Sandhurst, fell asleep in Jesus on Sunday, Jan. 12th, 1913,
after a long and lingering illness of over two years, which she bore with
great patience and suffering. Hers was a beautiful Christian life. The
writer, who knew her from infancy, has for years past frequently remarked and
heard others remark that they never
knew of a more sanctimonious person; always cheerful, pleasant and sunny, and
ever ready and willing to discharge any Christian or neighborly duty that
presented itself. They had recently erected a beautiful new home and fully
expected to spend many years of comfort and retirement there, but God's will
be done. While sick she received all the loving care a loving husband could
give. She was a great worker in the Methodist church and societies, being a
member of several, the Women's Institute and also of the Ladies Aid. She
leaves to mourn a kind and grief-stricken husband and two sons, Merton and
Leonard, and Pearl, a married daughter in Red Deer, Sask. The funeral was

preaching a very impressive sermon. She was followed from her residence by a
large number of sorrowing relatives and friends, the Ladies Aid accompanying
in a body. The remains were placed in the vault, there to await interment,
not without leaving her mourning friends with an assurance that she has
passed from death into life and gone to be with Christ which is far better.

MELLOW - At Sillsville, Thursday,
11th August, 1904, Samuel Henry Mellow, aged 76 years and 4 months. SAMUEL H. MELLOW - On Thursday
evening, Aug. 11th , Mr. Samuel H. Mellow, of Sillsville passed
suddenly away in his 77th
year. He had been in his usual state of fair health during the day and
was spending the evening with Mrs. Mellow, at the home of his son-in-law, Mr.
Duncan Hough. After making a passing remark in a cheerful conversation, he
laid his head against the back of his chair, a pallor overspread his
countenance, and when his side was reached his spirit had fled. Deceased was
born in St. Austell, Cornwall, England in 1828, and came to Canada in 1850
when he engaged in teaching at Morven and at Anderson's school house near
Napanee. In 1854 he visited his old home, and in 1855, was married to Mary J.
Yelland of Penzance, who survives him. Returning in 1855 with his brother,
Wm. J. Mellow, of Gretna, also recently married, they were shipwrecked at
night at Holyhead, on the coast of Wales, but escaped with most of their
belongings though the ship sank almost immediately. On their arrival in
Canada the brothers opened a store in Morven and a few years later purchased
a tract of land in Kaladar, where they resided for three years, but found
transportation too difficult to make farming a success in that then remote
township. About forty years ago Samuel H, removed to Sillsville, and a few
years later purchased a part of the Glebe of Clergy Reserve land, which has
since been his home. Early in his married life deceased joined the Methodist
church, of which he has ever since been an earnest and consistent member, and
with a few others struggled for many years to maintain an appointment at
Sillsville. Immediately after moving to Sillsville he assisted in organizing
the Glebe Sunday School, of which he has ever since been the superintendent.
During the forty years which have elapsed he has seen his youngest scholars
grow to manhood and womanhood and their children take the place in his class
which the parents formerly occupied. His kindly nature made him the
interested companion and loving friend of children and young people, and he
ever strove to inculcate in their minds those gentle thoughts and noble
precepts which tend to elevate the mind and enoble the character. On Sunday
morning, Aug. 14th, at the hour at which he was accustomed to assemble with
his beloved Sunday School his body was borne to the church by his five sons
and his son-in-law, preceded by the Sunday School singing his favorite hymn.
The casket was covered with flowers, sent by the Sunday School, his children
and numerous friends. After an Impressive service by Rev. Mr. Thomas, he was
laid at rest. "He was not for God took him." His loving wife and
the devoted mother of his children survives him. The other members of the
family are Annie J., now Mrs. Duncan Hough, of Sillsville; Dr. Samuel J., of
Port Perry; Thomas Y., of Sandhurst; Felix, of Bath; Fannie and Arthur W., at
home, and Dr. Frank E. at Sainfield. |

Mellow, Dr.
S. J. |
Dr. S. J. Mellow – It is with sincere regret that we
record the death of Dr. S. J. Mellow, on Thursday, March 4th,
1925. He will be greatly missed in his
professional capacity and as a citizen. Dr. Mellow was born September 19th,
1859, at Morven, near Napanee. After
his Public School course, he attended High School at Napanee, took his Normal
course, and taught school for three years at Camden and Sillsville, Ont. He then went to Queen’s University and took
his medical course, graduating in 1886.
He first practiced medicine at Bath, Ont., staying there three
years. While residing at Bath, Dr.
Mellow married Miss Bertha Louise Armstrong. Shortly after their marriage, Dr. and
Mrs. Mellow moved to Bay City, Michigan, where he remained for five years as
a resident doctor. In 1894 Dr. and
Mrs. Mellow moved to Port Perry, where they have since resided. Since coming to Port Perry, Dr.
Mellow has taken an active part in the affairs of the town. He was in the council for a number of
years, and was Reeve for a term.
Perhaps his greatest interest was shown in his service to the Board of
Education of which he was a member for some twenty years, and at one time
became chairman of that body. He was
also a member of the Library Board, and has been President of the Board since
the change from an Association to Public Library, taking a leading part in
promoting the building of a War Memorial Library. While public affairs were of
importance, Dr. Mellow’s practice grew steadily and in this field he will be
most seriously missed. It will be
difficult for the community to get along without his constant, skilful, and
painstaking service. Dr. Mellow was fond of sport, and his
recreations were lawn bowling, tennis and curling. He maintained his own tennis lawn, and made
all tennis lovers welcome in the use of it.
As a member of the Lawn Bowling Club, he leaves a gap hard to
fill. The outstanding features of Dr.
Mellow’s life have been his untiring industry and his sincerity, coupled with
excellent judgement of men and affairs. Dr. Mellow is survived by Mrs. Mellow
and their three daughters – Mrs. Merlin Letcher and the Misses Helen and
Francis Mellow, also by six brothers and sisters, all of whom were at the
unreal – Mrs. D. H. Hough, of Sillsville, Ont.; Thos. Y. Mellow, Bath, Ont.; Felix Mellow, of Kingston; Mrs. W. R. Hough, Sillsville, Ont.’ Arthur W. Mellow, Sillsville, and Dr. F. El
Mellow, Uxbridge. The funeral services were conducted
on Saturday afternoon by Rev. Wm. Higgs, and Rev. A. E. Thornley, and
were very largely attended. The many floral gifts were a striking
tribute to the high esteem in which the Doctor was held. Besides the flowers sent by the immediate
relatives, those the tributes of private friends, there were beautiful gifts
of flowers from the following bodies, - Port Perry Lawn Bowling Club; the council of the Corporation of the
Village of Port Perry; Port Perry
Board of Education; Port Perry Public
Library Board; the staff’s of the High
and Public Schools, and Ontario County Medical Association. |

OBITUARY – Elizabeth Jane Membery –
wife of Fred Membery, Reeve of Adolphustown, who has been suffering for the
past ten months from Bright’s disease, passed quietly away about 7 o’clock in
the evening, on Saturday, 21st inst.. She was taken ill the last week in July and
was examined by some of the best doctors in Picton, Bath and Toronto, and
there did not seem to be much difference in their opinion. They all at first thought that the seat of
the disease was a diseased lung, with a little Bright’s disease, and not
until February, Dr. Northmore, of Bath, was called and pronounced her disease
Bright’s disease of a chronic form.
She was tenderly cared for by her daughters for over six months in
bed, one of them being a lately graduated nurse from the Winnipeg General
Hospital training school for nurses.
Mrs. Membery was a true Christian of the doctrine of Christ, having
joined the Brethren many years ago, when Lord Cecil first came to
Adolphustown to preach the Gospel of Christ, and remained a true believer to
the end, enduring all her suffering with patience, with a firm belief of
meeting her Saviour in Heaven. The
funeral was one of the largest here for years, and she was laid to rest in
St. Paul’s churchyard, in a plot taken up next her grandfather’s plot, Major
Peter V. Dorland and descendants. A gentle rain fell upon the coffin as she
was being borne to the grave. Mrs.
Membery was a lady very highly respected, a genial, kind-hearted friend to
the sick and suffering in her neighborhood at all times during the whole of
her life. The people of Adolphustown village, as well as her husband and
children, have lost their greatest friend.
She was born Oct 30th, 1842 and died May 21st
1898, making her 55 years, 6 months and 22 days. She was married January 1st
1863. Mrs. Membery was the daughter of
the late Philip Dorland, who died twenty-eight years ago, and granddaughter
of Major Peter V. Dorland, and great-granddaughter of Philip Dorland, U.E.
Loyalist, who was once elected to Parliament by acclamation, and resigned his
seat rather than take an oath the law
required, he being a Quaker in faith.
J.W. Dorland, formerly of the Campbell House, is a brother of Mrs.
Membery, and Mrs. W.R. Membery, of the Daly House, Toronto, and Mrs. Glass,
of Chicago are sisters, who came to see her on her deathbed and attended her
funeral. James Grace, Sec. And Treas.
of the Toronto Street Railway Co., is a first cousin, her father’s sister’s
son. Mrs. Membery’s mother is a sister
of the S.W. Trumpour, so long the Treasurer of this Township. The Dorland family have a splendid
reputation for generations back, and a book is now being compiled by John
Dorland, Governor of Washington, tracing the family back to the first
settlement of New York City, of which two brothers from Germany located, a
lot of 200 acres a piece, now the very center of the city, and their
descendants are now to be found in nearly every state of the Union, occupying
some of the most prominent positions in the country. The Dorlands are growing few in Adolphustown,
sorry to say, only J.W., Samuel and Redford Dorland, Tp. Clerk, and none of
these have any heirs or likely to now at their age. Mrs. Membery had only two children, Mrs.
Geo. Armstrong and Ida Membery, the professional nurse. |

CORRECTION - Adolphustown, May 21st
, '06 - Dear Editor -- In the obituary of the late D. W. Allison in last week's
Beaver, an error appears in the maiden name of his widow. She is my sister.
We are no relation to the Emburys of this County. My grandfather, Amos
Membery came from Dorsetshire, England in the year 1845 and settled in
Adolphustown, purchasing the old U.E.L. farm owned by Capt. Mabee, now owned
by J. B. Allison, Esq., who also married a sister of mine. My grandfather
brought with him from England $30,000.00 in gold - a good sum to own so far back as 1845. The
name "Membery" can be traced as far back in England as the year
A.D. 449 in "Dooms Day Book" and a town in Devonshire County, still
retains our name, and just outside of the town of Membery are the ruins of a
castle still called "Castle Membery". Please correct the error and
oblige your sincere friend. (Signed) Fred Membery. |

residence, Adolphustown, June 10th, 1896, was born at Dorsetshire, Eng.,
April 3rd, 1808, and was therefore, at his death, eighty-eight years, two
months and seven days old. He was a resident of Adolphustown fifty one years,
having come to Adolphustown in 1845, purchased the old Capt. Maybee farm and
resided upon it till his death. He was a successful farmer, and the late
Philip Ham is authority for stating that Giles Membery was the first man to
fall plough for a spring crop in all this part of the country. His success in
so doing soon showed others the lesson to follow suit, and today no one would
think of doing otherwise for a successful crop. He had seven children: Mrs.
H.F. Stone, San Francisco; the late A.M. Membery, ex-reeve and township
clerk, Adolphustown; the late Mrs. J.B. Allison; Mrs. W.A. Hammond, jeweler,
San Francisco; W.R. Membery, now of the Daly house, Toronto, and Mrs. D.W.
Allison, Adolphustown. Giles Membery's father came to this
country in '38 and purchased the old Beeman homestead in S. Fredericksburgh.
He also bought each of his children a farm in the United States, of which he
had eight, where his grandchildren and great grandchildren are to be found
today in prosperity, many of them getting high positions in the government.

Marsh, who ran at the last election, State legislature, Watertown democratic
ticket, are his grandchildren. Giles Membery's father, Amos Membery was a
successful English farmer, coming to this country a wealthy man. In his young
days, his father sent him to sea to see if he would like that life better
than farming. He left Bristol, Eng., for Bermuda, in the ship Renewal, April,
1800, and it took to October following to return. There were 125 vessels in
the fleet, protected by two men-of-war. The vessels were merchantmen. They
lost two vessels by pirates before their return. The name of the flag ship
was the "Commodore". The instrument he used "quadrant or
quarter circle" for telling the latitude and longitude they were in, is
now in Fred Membery's possession, together with the log or diary book of the
fleet and their everyday movements on the six months' trip, and contains some
very interesting notes. The book is dated 17th April, 1800, and the
instrument for telling the latitude and longitude is dated and inscribed
"Made by T. Parnell, No. 25 opposite Glasgow wharf, for Andrew Davidson,
A.D. 1789." On his return to England he dropped the sea bubble and took
to farming with his father, who at the time kept 5,000 sheep on his ranch. Farming
in England in those days was done by the biggest guns, and was very
remunerative to those engaged in it. Giles Membery belonged to the church of
England and was reform in politics. His father was a Presbyterian in religion
and a conservative in politics.

Level Crossing Accident Takes Lives
of Two People – Couple on Way to Napanee as Train Hits Car – SILLSVILLE – Nov. 2 – (Special)
- Robert Merritt, 62, of Sillsville,
was killed instantly Saturday night at Mooney’s Crossing on the Hamburg Road,
two miles south of Napanee, about 7.15 and his wife was fatally injured. A car in which Mr. and Mrs. Merritt were
driving to Napanee from Sillsville was struck by a C.N.R. westbound fast
passenger train. Poor visibility, because of a heavy
downpour of rain, is believed to have been responsible for the accident. Mrs. Merritt died in the Kingston General
Hospital two hours after the accident. It was later learned that Mr. and
Mrs. Merritt were on their way to Napanee with a quilt for the Salvation
Army. Provincial Constable F. W.
Barrett was summoned to the scene of the accident and Coroner D. R. Hall conducted
an investigation. It was not certain
today if an inquest would be held. The late Mr. and Mrs. Merritt resided
on a farm at Sillsville, where they had lived since coming to Canada from
England 33 years ago. They were both
active in church and charitable organization. Surviving are a daughter Mrs.
Clarence Davis of Adolphustown, and two sons, Percy, on a nearby farm at
Sillsville, and Leslie, stationed at Winnipeg with the R.C.A., who was
previously with the Bank of Commerce head office at Toronto. The late Mr. Merritt was a well-known
Holstein breeder and showed pure-bred cattle at many of the fairs in this
district, including Kingston, Napanee, Belleville and Picton. He was a member of the South Fredericksburg
Board of Education and the township council and the board of stewards of the
United Church and he sang in the choir. Mrs. Merritt was prominent in
charitable and church work. She was a
member of the Women’s Association of the United Church and had attended every
W. A. annual meeting, including the one held at Wilton 20 years ago. She had done a great deal of knitting for
war work. FUNERAL HELD FOR VICTIMS OF ACCIDENT
– SILLSVILLE - Nov. 6 – The funeral service of the late
Robert and Ada Merritt who were accidentally killed at Mooney’s Crossing was
held at their home “Elmville Farm” on Tuesday afternoon at 2.30. Rev. Mr. Crawford conducted the service and
hymns sung were “Nearer My God to Thee” and “Abide With Me”. Because their younger son, Leslie,
was delayed in his journey at Fort Garry owing to a rock slide north of Lake
Superior, he was unable to be present on Tuesday and the committal service
was delayed until Wednesday at 2 p.m., when, after a short service at the
home, interment was made at Riverview Cemetery, Napanee. The pall-bearers were Morley Whyte, Harold
Hough, Morley Creighton, Bert Windover, Lachlan McLean and J.B. Elliott. |

We have this week to report a sad
death in the person of Jacob Meyers. He has resided with his brother for a
number of years and was picking pears off a tree in the orchard, when he
slipped and fell, injuring the spine and fracturing the skull. Dr. Northmore,
of Bath, was summoned and did all that could be done for the sufferer, but
without avail. He succumbed to his injuries in a few short hours. Everything
that could be done to make a sufferer happy was done. The accident occurred
on Wednesday, 1st Sept., and he died on the 2nd, aged 58 years. All that can
be said of deceased is that he was a quiet, harmless, inoffensive citizen and
a true member of the Methodist church, of which he was a faithful worker. The
funeral service was conducted by Rev. Williams, at Bethel church, on
Saturday, and the remains were placed in Morven vault. His end was peace. Myers - In South Fredericksburgh,

Miller, Aaron D. |
Death of a Veteran He Passed Away Last Week in Picton Rev. Aaron D. Miller Did Good Service
in the Methodist Church – Some of His Strong Characteristics. Picton Gazette About midnight on Friday last, 17th
inst., Aaron D. Miller, an aged saint, many
years ago a powerful factor in the cause of Methodism in this part of
the province, heard the summons of the Master to come up higher, and quietly
and silently passed on to his reward. For many years he had been so afflicted
with the loss of sight and hearing that the world had been almost a blank to
him, and life to him had been confined almost to contemplation and the
fervent religious duties that in his experience could never grow old. He was
born at Switzerville, township of Ernesttown, on November 17th,
1822, and at the time of his death was in his 89th year. A life of
such length in the active work of the church could not fail to have many
wonderful experiences. Aaron Miller was received on probation in the
Methodist ministry in the year 1851, his name standing in an honored place
between those of George MacDougall and John W. German. His father, John M.
Miller, generally called Squire Miller, was a well-to-do farmer in the
Adolphustown district, and there acquired a large property of 500 acres, the
gift of the crown to one who had stood steadfast to Britain in the time of
the revolutionary war. Squire Miller joined to his farming operations other
business projects and advanced to considerable wealth. He was not too
favorable to his son’s assumption of the life of a Methodist preacher, not
because he undervalued the moral worth of such a career, but because he
questioned if his somewhat limited attainments would sufficiently qualify him
for the undertaking. From his mother, who was a truly noble and consecrated
woman, he received nothing but the highest encouragement, and the inspiration
that could not fail to nerve him for his work. So with perhaps some
misgivings, but with unlimited honesty of purpose and zeal, he started with
horse and saddlebags, to his first appointment on the Brighton Circuit under
the superintendency of George F. Playter and the superintendency of Richard
Jones. His ministry was confined chiefly to the bounds of the London,
Montreal and Bay of Quinte Conferences, and in the latter he achieved his
most signal successes. His strong, energetic temperament and
restless sort of character gave a sort of rugged eloquence to his sermons and
made him take as a preacher. He was indefatigable in his efforts to enlarge
his field of knowledge and to acquire some graces of style that would render
him more acceptable as a preacher. He read constantly the best books,
especially the Bible, and gradually grew into the affection and appreciation
of his people. He spoke the words of life in a bold, unflinching tone and
manner, and fearlessly reproved men for their sins. His outspoken utterances
and his faithful presentation of his message ultimately prevailed. Men began
to repent of their sins and revival influence spread in mighty power over
whole townships. In these days, of poor church accommodation, camp meetings
were numerous, and at these romantic gatherings under the shiver leaf sounds
of the forest where the heart beats in closest sympathy with nature, the
voice of Aaron Miller was loudest in his appeals to his fellow men. All his life
he seemed to have a special gift in prayer and accomplished much by his
impassioned, powerful appeals, that started sinners into a realization of
their situation and their need of higher help. Conversions were numerous and
the word of the lord increased daily, as in olden days. It was toward the
close of his career in this section of the country that a spirit of doubt and
despondency, from whatever cause, private criticism or public indifference,
got hold of him and nearly blasted the promise of his earlier years. He
doubted his call to preach and felt his unpreparedness for the great work
before him. With Aaron Miller such a misgiving was equivalent to throwing up
his credentials. He packed up his belongings and signified his determination
to abandon his work. But the lady of the house where he was staying, hearing
of his mental condition, remonstrated with him and pointed to his many
succe3sses as evidences of his call. She abjured him to continue in his work.
Aaron Miller, always positive in his character, conceiving the fault was in
himself, withdrew to his room and laid the matter before the Lord. He did not
come forth till by mighty pleadings and a fresh and complete consecration of
himself to God, he had received the tokens of divine acceptance that he never
afterwards lost. Henceforth the path before him was plain. His duty was to
preach the gospel everywhere, and by all waters, and he never receded from
the lofty consciousness of the mission which he felt had been placed upon him
by higher than human hands.
Subsequently he came to the southeastern parts of this county and his
voice was heard constantly in Milford, Cressy, in fact all points from Indian
Head to Carrying Place. Great revivals rocked the country, and men everywhere
joined the church. If men of the present day wish to understand what Aaron
Miller was in the days of his strength, they must talk with men that have
passed the 80th or 90th meridian of life, not with
those who have known him only when the white blossoms of the almond tree have
been flourishing thick on his venerable form. At some of the prominent meetings in
this county it is said that as many as 300 converts joined the church. These
were the olden times, the good old days when a sturdy earnestness pervaded
the church and when the motto of its ministers seemed to be: “The world, the
world for Christ.” For the past 29 years Aaron Miller has held a
superannuated relationship to the church, but has always maintained an active
interest in it. His service is only remembered by the few, for the great
masses among whom he labored, have preceded him to the silent land, but those
who survive and are qualified to speak on so important a subject are one in
their testimony of his evangelical spirit, and his desire to be a burning and
a shining light in the salvation of men. Such for many a year he remained. His funeral took place on Monday at 3
p.m. and was conducted by Rev. W.H. Elmsley, of the First Methodist church,
assisted by Rev. Dr. Harrison of the main street church. A goodly company assembled at the
Miller homestead to pay their last tribute of respect to this worthy man of
God, and listen to the eloquent remarks of Rev. Mr. Elmsley, who took as the
basis of his subject the “nunc dimittis,” Luke II, 20, “Lord, lettest now Thy
servant depart in peace for mine eyes have seen Thy salvation.” His wife,
Elizabeth Huff, whose pious memory still preserves its fragrance in this
community, predeceased him some five or six years ago. He was laid to rest by
her side in Glenwood cemetery.

Miller, Elizabeth (nee
Cadman) |
MILLER, Mrs. Elizabeth, daughter of William
Cadman, a UEL, was born in the province of New York in 1774, and came to
Canada with her parents at the close of the Revolutionary War, settling in
Fredericksburgh twp. She married George Miller of Ernestown who predeceased
her in January 1844. She died in Ernestown Apr 11 1856, survived by her sons
and daughters. Mrs. Elizabeth Miller of Ernesttown Sister Miller was born in the state
of New York (then Province) in the year 1774. Her father, William Cadman -
a U.E. Loyalist - with his family came
to Canada at the close of the Revolutionary War, and were among the first
settlers in the Township of Fredericksburgh. In the year 1791, that faithful
and zealous Missionary, the Rev. William Losee, formed a circuit along the
shores of the Bay of Quinte, where he was instrumental in the hand of God in
gathering many lost sheep into the fold of Christ, among whom was the subject
of his memoir; she joined the society of the (then despised) Methodists, and
received a bright evidence of the pardon of her sins through the blood of
Christ, she soon after sought and obtained the blessing of entire
satisfaction. She was united in marriage to Mr. George Miller, of Ernest Town
who became an Exhorter and Class-leader. Sister Miller was blessed with a
remarkably mild and kind disposition, which being purified by grace, caused
her to be much esteemed by all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance, and
she "adorned her profession by a well-ordered life and godly
conversation." Class meeting were her delight, at which, she had many
happy seasons during her lengthy pilgrimage in this vale of tears; but for
many years past, bodily affliction prevented her enjoying the privilege of
the class most of the time; but she held fast her integrity and was ever
noted for her humility and patience. She was an affectionate wife, an
indulgent mother and kind neighbor; she raised a large family, most of whom
are following her in the path of righteousness. Sister Miller had great regard for
the preachers of the gospel, who were ever welcome guests at her home; among the early heralds of salvation in
Upper Canada, who, as they went their rounds, partook of the hospitality of
her and her kind husband, were the Rev. Messrs. Losee, Dunham, Woolsey,
Wooster, Bishop, Coleman, Crowell, Jewell, Michael and Samuel Coate &c. There is now but one person left,
known to the writer, who was converted under the ministration of Mr. Losee,
and she is in the 85th years of her age. In January, 1844, Mother Miller's
respected husband was called home and she was left a widow, but she had
filial attention paid her in her afflictions by her youngest son, and two
unmarried daughters. Three weeks previous to her death she had a premonition
of her exit, but she was not alarmed; she had "fought a good
fight", she had finished her course", she had "kept her
faith," and was waiting for the crown: "Not Jordan's dream, nor
death's cold flood, could fright her from the shore." She manifested a
resignation to the will of her Divine Master in the last moments of her life.
She died the 11th of April, 1856, aged 81 years, 65 of which she had been a
consistent and worthy member of the Methodist Church. An impressive discourse was delivered
at her funeral, by the Rev. D.C. Clappison. J.C.C. Ernest Town, May 5 1856

James B. Miller A wave of deep regret swept over the
community of Morven, on Friday, Sept. 26th 1919, when it was
learned that Mr. J. B. Miller had succumbed to apoplexy. Mr. and Mrs. Miller had been at Kingston
for the day and returning Thursday evening at 9 o’clock, Mr. Miller went out
to his barn. When he did not return in
the usual time, Mrs. Miller became anxious and went in search only to find
her husband unconscious. Help was
secured and medical assistance, but to no avail and shortly after midnight
death occurred. The late Jas. B.
Miller was born in 1849, on the Miller homestead, three miles east of
Napanee, on the York Road, and spent his whole life in this county. He was one of a family of eight, of which
only two sisters survive, Mrs. Fred Kayler, Winnipeg, and Mrs. Chas Kayler of
Napanee. In 1868 he married Sarah
Ellen Perry, of Morven and for forty-one years they have fought life’s
battles and met life’s joys together.
Only one child was born to their home Roy, who died in early
childhood. Mrs. Miller has the deepest
sympathy of a large circle of friends in the hour of her sorrow. For the last thirty-six years Mr. Miller
has lived in his late residence, which has ever been the centre of friendship
and hospitality. Forty years ago Mr.
Miller became identified with the Methodist Church and has ever since been an
official and closely identified with its activities. At the time of death he was a Trustee and
member of the Official Board at Morven.
The funeral was on Sunday at the Brick Church. Rev. Mr. Wickett, Tyrone, and Rev. Mr.
Seymour, of Bath, assisted the Pastor.
The large congregation of friends present was sufficient evidence of
the esteem in which Mr. Miller was held.
No words of eulogy is necessary.
The highest tribute that can be paid to any man is the memory that is
cherished by those who knew and loved him. |

On Thursday, the 23rd
inst. the coroner was called to view the body of a man by the name of John
Miller who fell down dead in the street - It seems that Mr. Miller had come
from Ernest Town, his place of residence, the day previous, and early on
Thursday morning, feeling himself unwell had procured some medicine which he
did not take however, and had proceeded down St--- Street as far as Mr.
Dowling’s when he fell down dead immediately opposite the door. And would it be believed, from the general
humane character of the inhabitants of Kingston, that his body was permitted
to lie in the street from six till 12 o’clock? Yet it is nevertheless true - Jury’s
verdict, visitation of God.

The Late J.S. Miller Our translated brother was born in
Adolphustown in March, 1841, and had passed his 64th year at the time of his
death, which event took place at the family residence, "Prospect
Hill", No. 11, North Fredericksburgh, Nov. 9th. Deceased married for his
first wife Miss M.A. Ruttan, who was early taken from his side, in the 24th
year of their married life. She left one son, James Herbert Miller, who still
survives. Deceased was the senior son of Wm. R. Miller and his wife Lucy
Wagar, both of whom are numbered among the vanished pioneers. On May 2d,
1893, he married Mrs. M.A. Wagar. The sorrowing widow now for the second time
mourns the loss of the staff and stay of this life. The second family
consists of one daughter and one son, both of tender years. Her grown
daughter, Lottie Wagar, is still at home. The departed was converted to God
some twenty-five years ago and was identified with the Methodist Church until
he was promoted to the services of the Church Triumphant. For many years he
filled with credit some of the highest offices in the gift of the church of
his choice. In politics he was a loyal Liberal and was some time member of
the council of this old historic township. In business he was ever faithful
and honest and succeeded beyond the average in regard to this world's good.
The funeral services were conducted by his pastor, Rev. Wesley Down, of Bay
Circuit. A very impressive service was held in the Bethany church, when a
timely and effective sermon was preached to one of the most representative
audiences ever assembled in the church. The whole community joins in sympathy
with the sorrowing family. Note: the same appears in the Napanee Express Mar 31 1905 as 'S.J.

Mrs. Harry Miller After an illness of years, Mrs. H.
Miller passed to her eternal reward on Saturday, January 6th, at Gravenhurst.
Mrs. Miller was the only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Hicks, of North
Fredericksburgh, and about fourteen years ago was united in marriage to Mr.
Harry Miller. For a number of years they had resided in Oshawa, but during
her illness she had spent months at her home at Bethany. Mrs. Miller who was so often known as
'Kitty' Hicks, was a very pleasing personality and during the years of her
suffering she was always patient and hopeful that she might become strong
again. She was an affectionate daughter, a devoted wife and a loving mother. The funeral service was held on
Monday, January 8th, in Bethany United Church. Rev. J.E. Beckel, minister of
the Bay Circuit, had charge of the service. Rev. T.H.P. Anderson of Newburgh,
who had performed the marriage ceremony years ago, was present and preached
the funeral sermon. The choir sang several comforting messages of song. The
floral tributes and the crowded church were evidences of the esteem in which
the deceased was held by friends and relatives. Interment was made in Bethany
Cemetery. She leaves to mourn her loss, her
father and mother, her husband, two children, Helen and Mary, and five
brothers, Ben and James of North Fredericksburgh, Joseph of Detroit, Walter
of New Ontario, and George of British Columbia. Another brother died in the
days of the world war. On Saturday morning Mrs. Miller,
beloved wife of Harry Miller died at the sanitarium at Gravenhurst after a
long illness and the remains arrived in Napanee on the midnight train
Saturday and were conveyed to the home of her parents Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Hicks.
Mrs. Miller before her marriage some twelve years ago was Miss ‘Kitty’ Hicks
and was a very estimable young lady and greatly esteemed by her wide circle
of friends. She was born at Bethany where she had always resided and the
sympathy of the community is extended to her bereaved husband and two
daughters as well as to her parents and relatives. There are three brothers,
Ben and James, North Fredericksburgh, and Joseph in the United States. Mrs. Miller took quite an interest in
the church work of Bethany. The funeral service was held this afternoon to
the Bethany United Church with her minister, Rev. J.E. Beckel in charge. |

Miller, Matthew |
It is with no ordinary degree of
regret that we notice the death of the Rev. Matthew Miller, who was drowned
in the Bay of Quinte on Saturday, the 15th instant. It is not quite two years since Mr.
Miller was appointed, by the Glasgow Colonial Society, a Missionary to this
province, with instructions, on his arrival in the country, to place himself
under the direction of the Synod of Canada.
In this capacity he travelled from one extremity of the Province to
the other, and traversed the wilderness in various directions, labouring
faithfully and diligently for the good of his fellow men. He was subsequently ordained to the
pastoral charge of the two Presbyterian Congregations of Cobourg and
Colborne, making the latter his usual place of residence. He lately went on a visit to the
Bathurst District, and on his return passed through Kingston on Friday, the
day before he was lost. Contrary to
the wish of some of his friends in Kingston, and even to his own expressed
intention, he was tempted, by the more easy and expeditious mode of
travelling on the ice, to venture upon it, and finding it so much more
pleasant that dragging heavily and slowly over the land, he proceeded as far
as the Rev. Robert McDowall's in Fredericksburgh, where he arrived in safety
and remained for the night. Here, Mr. McDowall, after having
endeavoured without success to divert him from his purpose of proceeding
farther on the ice, gave him written instructions how to travel so as to
avoid the dangerous places. The
morning of the Saturday proving rainy, Mr. McDowall again attempted to
dissuade him from taking the ice, but the difficulties of the land travelling
now hourly increasing, he was tempted
to persist in his original intention, and set out on the ice as before. The precise course he pursued can only be
guessed at, but it would seem that he very soon altogether deviated from the
instructions he had received, and took the direction of some of the most
unsafe places in the whole Bay, when he soon came to his end off Trumpour's
Point. as appears by his watch having stopped at a quarter past 9
o'clock. The place where he was found
was quite open, but, as we have said, it was raining at the time, and there
being water on the surface of the ice, the opening would no doubt be undistinguishable
by him until he found himself suddenly precipitated into the water. The place being very lonely, it was not
until the evening of the following day that the melancholy occurrence was
known, when part of the Sleigh was seen above the water, leading to the
supposition that someone had been lost.
Search was immediately made, and the body of a stranger found in about
ten feet water, and conveyed to the house of Mr. John Trumpour. Mr. Trumpour gave notice to Samuel Casey,
Esq., who, with very kind and humane considerations, lost no time in
conveying the intelligence of this sad event to Kingston and Colborne, where,
from some papers found on the person
of the deceased, Mr. Casey rightly conjectured that his friends and place of
residence would be discovered. On
Monday evening the rumour of a person having been lost in the ice reached Mr.
McDowall, who, as soon as he ascertained that it was the Rev. Mr. Miller,
hastened with Mrs. McDowall, to the spot, where lay the remains of their late
friend, and united in their exertion with those other humane and kind hearted
individuals whom we have mentioned, in making the necessary preparations for
the decent interment of the deceased.
The Rev. M. Machar, on the news of this melancholy event being
communicated to him on Tuesday morning, set out for Adolphustown, and
arriving at Mr. Trumpour's after midnight, has the satisfaction, a mournful
one it is true, of seeing that every necessary preparation had been made for
the funeral of his lamented Brother in the Ministry. On Wednesday morning, he attended his
remains to the place of interment, in the Old Burial Ground at Adolphustown,
a place, decently enclosed, where is deposited the dust of some of the
earliest and most respectable settlers in the Township, and where too, may
now be seen, the Stranger's grave. We are requested to announce that the
remains of the much lamented Rev. Mr. Miller, whose melancholy fate has
excited such universal sympathy, having been removed from Adolphustown, will
arrive here on Saturday next, for re-interment in the new Presbyterian Church
of this place; also, that on Sunday
next, a suitable funeral sermon will be delivered at the usual place of
meeting, by the Rev. Mr. Rogers, of Peterboro'. [Cobourg Star, 5th March] On Saturday night last, the Rev.
Matthew Miller, Minister of the Scotch church at Cobourg, while crossing from
Adolphustown to the stone mills, Marysburgh, with his horse and sleigh, broke
through the ice, off Trumpour’s Point, and unfortunately, all perished. His body and the horse were found the next
morning. It would appear that the
accident occurred at half past ten o’clock, from the fact that his watch,
which was found on his person, stopped at that hour. Mr. Miller was highly esteemed for his
superior talents, unassuming manners, and religious life. The untimely removal of such men is a
public as well as private loss. |

Obituary - Mrs. James Miller At the Hotel Dieu, Kingston, on
Wednesday night, Mrs. James Miller, of Bethany, passed away after an illness
of several months. Her passing, although expected for
some time owing to the serious nature of the malady, has cast a gloom over
the district where she had spent her whole life, and the heartfelt sympathy
of everyone is extended to the grief-stricken husband, the two children, her
father and brother. The deceased was a native of the
Township of North Fredericksburgh, being the daughter of Mr. Ben Huyck and
the late Mrs. Huyck. Beloved in her home, beloved in the church, there is no
one in Bethany who will be missed more. An ex-president of the ladies' Aid
and organist of the Bethany Church, a great assistant in many departments of
the Church's work, a splendid worker in the Sunday School, her passing will
leave a gap that will be hard to fill. During her long illness both at home
and in the hospital, she bore it with Christian fortitude and was ready to
accept the Master's call. She received the best of medical care and nursing,
and every day enquiries were made by her legion of friends. The remains were brought to Napanee
and taken to her late home, the funeral service being held at the Bethany
Church on Sunday afternoon, conducted by Rev. J.E. Beckel. Besides her husband, two children,
Marion and Ronnie are left to mourn also, her father, Mr. Ben Huyck and her
brother, E.B. Huyck.

Horrible Murder - On the 4th instant,
a person of the name of James Milligan, of Fredericksburgh, murdered his wife
under circumstances of singular brutality. The unfortunate woman was about to
be confined, and in the absence of the female attending upon her, she was
assaulted by her husband, while under the influence of liquor, and the child
taken from her in a manner altogether revolting. She survived about two
hours. Milligan was committed to the District Gaol here this morning to stand
his trial at the approaching Assizes. We learn that the mother and child were
buried on the 6th and what appears to us singular is that Milligan was not
apprehended till the 22d inst. It appears also very strange that there was no

The Late Mrs. John Milling The last member of the older
generation of one of the best known families in the Napanee district, Mrs.
John Milling, passed away at her home on Dundas Street, West, Napanee, early
Monday morning. The late Mrs. Milling had been an invalid for nearly twelve
years, during which time she had patiently borne a great deal of discomfort
and suffering. Mrs. Milling, before her marriage,
was Frances Fretts, a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. W.R. Fretts. She was
born at Hawley in North Fredericksburgh [sic], and after her marriage continued to live in the Hawley district,
where her husband was a prosperous and progressive farmer. A number of years
ago, Mr. and Mrs. Milling retired to a smaller farm on the Kingston Road,
near Napanee and later came to Napanee to reside with their son, Hugh. Mrs.
Milling was predeceased by her husband who died about seven years ago and by
her only son, Hugh, who passed away about sixteen months ago. Since the death
of her son she had been taken care of by his widow. For many years Mrs. Milling had been
a member of Trinity United Church and in years gone by was a regular
attendant at the services. She is survived by four grand-daughters;
Mrs. Edwards, Toronto; Mrs. J.D. Mayhew, Napanee; Mrs. R.D. Shape,
Sillsville, and Mrs. Gordon Hunter, of Malartic, Quebec. She is also survived
by two sisters, Mrs. G.M. Card of Napanee and Mrs. Morley Anderson of
Detroit; and two brothers, W.G. Fretts and Ebenezer Fretts of Hawley. Three
sisters, Mrs. Elias Smith, Mrs. Geo Snider and Mrs. Holden Robinson
predeceased her. Her funeral will be held at her late
home on Wednesday and will be conducted by Rev. Harold E. Wellwood, minister
of Trinity United Church. Interment will follow in Riverside Cemetery.

from her residence at 2 o’clock this afternoon with interment in Riverside
Cemetery, Napanee. Mrs. Milling, who was in her 79th
year, before her marriage was Miss Frances Susan Fretts, daughter of the
later Mr. and Mrs. W.R. Fretts. She was born in South Fredericksburgh where
she spent most of her married life. She was united in marriage to John
Milling in 1879 and the latter passed away in 1931, shortly after they had
moved to Napanee. The deceased was a life-long member of the Methodist and
later the United Church and for many years took an active interest in the
Hawley Church. She had been a member of Trinity Church for years. An only son, W.H. Milling, ex-warden
of the County of Lennox and Addington, passed away in November 1938. Four
sisters also predeceased her. She leaves to mourn her loss two brothers, W.G.

Former Reeve Passes Away in Kingston W.H. Milling, Napanee, Well Known
Farmer and Business Man Had Been Ill Only Few Days Early Wednesday morning, the death
occurred at the Kingston General Hospital of one of the best known and highly
esteemed residents of the Napanee district in the person of W.H. Milling in
his 57th year. His serious illness had been of a very brief nature
and on Sunday he went to the hospital, suffering from pneumonia. There were
also other complications and his condition grew steadily worse. On Tuesday
word was received in town that his condition was very critical. He was a native of the township of
North Fredericksburgh, an only son of Mrs. John Milling and the late Mr.
Milling. For many years he was a successful farmer and on retiring from the
arduous duties of the farm he purchased the grocery business on Dundas St.
East, Napanee, for many years known as the Smith store. He was in business
for some time and eventually disposed of it after which he returned to the
farm. He came to Napanee a few years ago
and erected a home just outside of the westerly limits of the town. For the
past number of years he not only superintended his 200 acre farm but he did
contracting business, in which he was very successful. In 1922 at the
solicitation of many ratepayers, he consented to run for the office of reeve
of North Fredericksburgh and was elected. In 1923 and 1924 he was again
re-elected and in the latter year was named to the highest position in the
gift of the county, that of warden, a position which he ably filled. He was
well liked by his confreres both on the township and county councils. He had been a member of Union Lodge
No. 9 A.F. & A.M. for several years and was a member of the Napanee
Rotary Club a few years ago. Owing to being away so much he, with much regret
withdrew from the Rotary Club. He was a life-long Conservative. His father passed away in June 1931.
He was twice married, his first wife having been a daughter of J.A. Bell and
the late Mrs. Bell. His second wife, who survives, was
before her marriage, Miss Chalmers of Adolphustown. Besides his mother, who
has been in ill health for many years, he leaves four daughters, Mrs. E.R.
Edwards (Mildred) of Toronto, Mrs. Rod Sharpe (Helen) of Napanee R.R., Mrs.
J.D. Mayhew (Harriet) of Napanee and Mrs. J.G. Hunter (Jean) of Malartic,
Que. The passing of Mr. Milling, or Hugh
as he was known to everyone, was heard with sincere regret by his legion of
friends in Napanee and the district adjoining. The funeral service, which will be
held under Masonic auspices, will take place from his late residence at 2.30
on Friday afternoon with interment in Riverside Cemetery, Napanee. |

to be unseaworthy and the contingent was returned to Canada. Demobilized at Pembroke, Ont., he
returned to Napanee where he served with the Seymour Electric Co., the
predecessor of Napanee Public Utilities Commission. As an electrician he wired a large number
of the older houses in Napanee. Leaving the Seymour Company he went
into business with his father. The M.
B. Mills Co. was originally a taxidermy business and later conducted a
carriage business. They also manufactured
tents and awnings. The company purchased a building at
the foot of John Street on the present location of the Lennox and Addington
Mutual Fire Insurance Co., and an extensive feed business was built up. Mr. Mills’ father died in 1932, and
he carried on, entering the chick hatching business. Fire destroyed the firm’s premises in 1947
and they purchased the Wiseman garage building at the corner of Centre and
Bridge streets. Lorne Smart, reeve of
Napanee and the late Hugh Brennan were active in the company through these
years. It was sold to Lasher’s Feed
and Seed Limited in January 1959. That
building was sold this year to the Sun Oil Co., and has since been torn down. Mr. Mills was an active member of
Trinity United Church and a member of the session. At one time he was a member of the
Independent Order of Oddfellows in Napanee. He was a sailing enthusiast in his
younger years, sailing with his father on the Dolphin, taking cruising
parties through the Bay of Quinte. His
father won a number of sailing races as well with his son as crew member. During the later years of his life,
Mrs. Mills and others friends accompanied him on motor trips all over the
north American continent. He was an
active Rotarian and served as president of the Napanee Club in 1951 and 1952,
succeeding to office shortly after the death of the late Wallace Roy just
after Mr. Roy’s term had commenced and continuing for another year. He had been planning to attend the Rotary
International convention in Tokio, Japan, next year. The funeral is being held on
Wednesday afternoon from Trinity United Church conducted by Rev. W. K. Pace,
minister of the church and Rev. W. L. Simmons, pastor of the Church of St.
Mary Magdalene Anglican church, his very good friend and neighbor at his home

William R. Mitts Father Mitts, the subject of the
following obituary notice, was a man highly respected by the community in which
he lived and by the members of the church to which he belonged. He was born
in the township of Fredericksburgh, August 19th, 1808, and
departed this life November 5th, 1889, in the eighty-second year
of his age. He was married to his now sorrowing widow, Hannah Young, January
5th, 1830. Eight children were born to them, four sons and four
daughters, seven of whom have gone to the better land. Our brother was converted to God
about half a century ago, under the ministry of Rev. Joseph Greenleaf, in the
house of Peter Wright, Esq. His conversion was genuine and ever after his
life gave evidence of a blessed change. For several years he held the
position of steward, an office his son has since filled to the entire
satisfaction of all concerned. During the past few years Father Mitts’ health
has been feeble, so much so as to prevent him from attending the means of
grace, but at all times his testimony to the saving power of the blood of
Jesus to cleanse from all sin was clear and scriptural. He retained his
mental faculties until the end, recognizing his neighbors as they called to
see him and left the blessed assurance to his widow and children that all was
well. A large concourse of sorrowing
friends and acquaintances attended his funeral and laid his remains in the
family burying-ground at Ivanhoe, to await the resurrection of the just.
“Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.”

ALBERT E. MOORE, LONG ILL, IS DEAD - HAD
BEEN CONNECTED WITH A. BUSHNELL & CO. SINCE 1911. Albert E. Moore, well known employee of A.
Bushnell & Company, died late Friday afternoon at his home, 115 Ward
Street, following a long illness. His
death was unexpected, however, for he had appeared improved during the past
week, when he suffered a relapse. He
was born and had always resided in this city.
He was the son of Mrs. Mary E., and the late Jacob H. Moore. He was employed for many years as clerk in
the dry goods store of Oliver B. Cadwell, 11 Public Square, and acquired in
this store a thorough knowledge of domestic dry goods. When Mr. Cadwell went out of business in
1911, Mr. Moore secured a position with A. Bushnell & company and during
the past eight years had been buyer and manager of the domestic dry goods
department as well as being one of the staff managers of the store. He was known to hundreds of patrons of the
store in northern New York who relied upon his expert knowledge of materials
to guide them in their purchases. “Mr.
Moore came to us in 1911.” said Karl
George, treasurer of the company today. “He was popular and well liked by all
of the employees of the store. There
is no doubt but that he was one of the best buyers of domestic dry goods in
northern New York. He had a training
that is practically impossible to secure today. He was a
specialist in his line. He was
a generally useful man. Nothing can be
said that is too good of the man himself.”
Mr. Moore was a member of Trinity Episcopal church and was prominent
in the Sunday school work at the church, being superintendent of the school
for some time. He was a member of the
local lodge, Improved Order of Red Men.
Surviving are his widow, Elsie Hurlbut Moore, his mother, Mrs. Mary E.
Moore, and a brother, Fred H. Moore, all of this city. The funeral will be held at 2 Monday
afternoon from the Moore residence, 115 Ward street. Rev. Francis W. Eason, rector of Trinity
Episcopal church, officiating.
Interment will be in Brookside cemetery. |

Moore, Allen |
ALLEN MOORE - NEWBURG - The death of Allen Moore,
which took place at his home in Wesley on Sunday, was learned with sincere
regret by his many friends in Newburg.
He had been in poor health for several months. He was a life-long resident of the Wesley
district, was a successful farmer and was also a member of the United Church. He was well known in Newburg where he
had many friends. A sister resides in
Newburg and there are two brothers, Andrew Moore of Switzerville and Clancy
Moore of Deseronto. Mrs. Moore before
her marriage was Miss Givens and there is one daughter, Mrs. Ronald Baker of

Camden township and she was born near Newburgh, Feby 10th 1823 and
was married in May 1846 to Richard Morgan, who predeceased her in 1887. To this union there were born 14 children,

when one so full of honor and years like this Christian woman is called away,
there is a degree of pleasure and satisfaction to know that the full measure
of human life and usefulness has been filled, and that the end has been
reached in peace. |

Moss, Eliza (nee

ELIZA ARMSTRONG - The subject of this
sketch was twice married, first to Wm. Manders, with whom she spent many happy
years, and raised a large family, several of whom are followers of
Christ. She was born in the years 1827
in Sligo, Ireland, and died March 2nd 1886. Her now sorrowing husband, Mr. Thomas Moss,
mourns not as those who have no hope of meeting by the “river that flows by
the throne of God.” She was one of the
most devoted women we have ever known.
She was for many years a devoted follower of her Lord and Master. All her brothers and sisters, and father
and mother, are endeavoring to make the desired haven of rest. Her father, for forty years a class leader,
is now listening for the Master’s call to “inherit the kingdom prepared for
him.” She had a long illness, which
was most patiently endured as seeing him who was invisible. That memorable hour will not soon be
forgotten when her pure spirit soared out of the crumbling wreck to “crown
him Lord of all” Her bereaved partner
is one of the most lonely of men, and we will not soon forget how his heart
melted as she said, “I’m going home.”
May her dear children walk in the light, and meet her in her own dear
home in heaven. She has gone to
participate in the rest that remains for the people of God. May our sorrowing brother cling to Christ
and constantly have the consolations of his grave. [signed] N.B. Topping |

Mullett, Shepherd |
Death of Shepherd Mullett On Saturday evening last, October 7th,
a great shock came to the people of Morven and vicinity as the sad news
spread from home to home that Shepherd Mullett died in Napanee today. There
seemed a note of finality in the report that forbad any doubts as to its
truth, and all too true the rumor proved to be. Mr. Mullett had gone to the
station for some building material. When only a few blocks away on his
return, he was seen to throw up his hands and fall. Telephoned physicians
were quickly in attendance. Their verdict was that probably death had ensued
before he fell. His friends and neighbors gathered about him and the remains
were lovingly and sorrowfully borne to the home he had so lately left. It was
Mr. Mullett's desire to live among the relatives and friends at Morven which
led him to leave his farm in Adolphustown some four years ago and settle
here. With characteristic energy and faithfulness he threw himself into the
religious life of the community in connection with the Methodist church. Here
he will be keenly missed. He filled most acceptably the different offices of
financial steward, Sunday School teacher and also superintendent. But it will
be as a Sabbath School worker that his place will be hardest to fill. As
superintendent he will long live in the memory of the people. Last Rally Day
will be particularly remembered. The ability and energy with which he planned
and conducted the exercises on that occasion came as a surprise, even to
those who knew him best. In fact the last days of Bro. Mullett seemed to be
his brightest and happiest, reminding those who are left of the path of the
righteous, which shineth more and more unto the perfect day. Truly, a man
diligent in business, fervent in spirit, serving the Lord, has gone out from
among us. The funeral obsequies were conducted on Monday at the White Church
by Rev. R. Garrett, pastor, assisted by Rev. G. Horton, a former pastor. The
sermon by Rev. R. Garrett was most impressive, founded upon Job xiv-10
"But a man dieth and wasteth away, yea, man giveth up the ghost, and where
is he?" He leaves a widow and one daughter, Mrs. Geo. Clark, of Conway.
They have the sympathy of the whole community in this, their sad bereavement.
