dear husband of B. Decker, formerly of Whitby, and father of Dr. H. C. Mabee,
Kingston, Ontario. Funeral will take

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. |

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. |

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. |

slightly for years, but he was taken down in bed since September and
gradually became weaker, with very severe suffering. The deceased was a life
long member of Trinity United Church. The funeral service was held on
Saturday afternoon from his late residence, Robert Street, conducted by Rev.
Harry Pawson of Trinity United Church and assisted by Rev. A.J. Wilson of St.

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. |

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. |

Magee, Joseph |
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

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. |

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.

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. |

Marlin was born in Hungerford, Ont., February 16th, 1897, and died
on the field of France, April 9th, 1917. 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

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. |

residence at the age of 85. Having
contracted pneumonia he lay ill for ten days and failed to respond to the
treatment afforded him. All of his
family were at his bedside when the end came.
The deceased, whose father died when he was quite young, was left the
sole support of a widowed mother and five sisters, only one of whom, a
sister, Mrs. Yerex of Portland, Oregon, survives him. Later in life he
married Agnes E. Weese, who predeceased him almost three years ago. Of the union three sons and two daughters
were born, all of whom survive him, Harry C. and Dr. R. D. of Niagara Falls,
N.Y., Reginald of Winnipeg, Miss Hazel at home and Mrs. Harold Nugent of
Wesley. The deceased was
a successful farmer, 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
strong supporter of the Conservative Party. In his passing the community
loses a familiar figure with a fund of ready Irish wit. Rev. E. F.
Swayne conducted a very impressive service at Wesley United Church and later
at Camden East cemetery, where the remains were laid to rest beside those of
this wife, sister and father. |

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

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

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. |

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

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

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. |

and highly respected 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

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, which were attended by a large number of friends and relatives

cast over the vicinity 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.” |

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 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. |

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 |

on Tuesday, December 4th, of Dr. Ross V. McLaughlin, Napanee lost

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

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 out to the bereaved, particularly his wife to whom Mr.
McLaughlin had been married a little more than a year. |

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

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]

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. |

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 held at her late residence, and was largely attended, Rev.
Mr. Garrett 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. |

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

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

Died - Membury -
At Adolphustown, June 10th, Giles Membury, aged eighty-eight years, three
months. An Old Resident
- Giles Membery Dies at Adolphustown - Life on the Sea in Early Days Giles Membery, who
died at his 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. L. Marsh, once state senator of Michigan, Col.
E. Marsh, of Missouri, and A. 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

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, Mrs.
Elizabeth, daughter of William Cadman, a UEL, was born in the province of New

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.

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. |

Miller, Ernestown. Samuel Miller
died April 20th at his residence near Bath. Deceased, who was one
of the old U.E. Loyalists, was born within half a mile of where he died and
has always lived in the same place. He was drafted in 1814, the time of the
American war, although only 15 years of age and went to Kingston. But a few
days after going to that city peace was proclaimed and the militia were
discharged. He saw service for his country in 1837-38 at the time of the
rebellion. By his will his two daughters, Nancy, wife of John Taylor,
Belleville, and Mercy Amanda, wife of Zina Ham, each receive $7,000; the sum
of $7,000 was also set apart for his daughter Ann Eliza, wife of J.J.
Johnston, Bath, the interest to be paid to her half-yearly by the executors,
but in case she becomes a widow the amount is to be paid over to her. To his
three sons, Davis, William and Charles, he willed $8,500 each; to another
son, S.K. Miller, he left $2,000, and to Mrs. S.K. Miller, $500; to each of
his grand-children (understood to be thirteen) he willed $100. The balance of

Milligan, Mrs. James |
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 Coroner's Inquest held
over the bodies. |

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,

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

night. The funeral took place from her residence at 2 o’clock this afternoon

member of the Methodist and later the United Church and for many years took

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. |

Limited He continued to work that
spring and assisted this spring as well in the hatchery. In April of last year he was honored by the
Napanee Fire Department when he retired as volunteer chief. Born at Napanee,

electrician at the shore docks at Ashtabula, Ohio. He returned home
and enlisted with the Royal Canadian Horse Artillery which was mustered
across the country and trained at New Westminster, B. C. He shipped with the cavalry and horses to
serve with the army of occupation at Valivostock, Russia, but when the ship
was 500 miles out to sea, it was found 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

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.” S.B. Phillips. |

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. |

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. |

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. |
