JANET
TEMPLETON – Died, at Napanee, on Saturday morning, 11th February,
Janet Templeton, relict of the late Wm. Templeton, age 72 years. The deceased lady was one of the oldest
residents of the town, having lived here nearly half a century. She was born near Perth in the county of
Lanark of an old Scotch family. Her
father, James McIlquham, came from Scotland to Canada about 1816 and settled
near Perth, then but a hamlet in the forest.
Here he purchased land and made a home on the banks of the Mississippi,
where the deceased was born and spent her early years. She was married to Wm. Templeton in 1844,
and immediately removed to Napanee, where her husband had previously
commenced business as a tanner. The town then consisted chiefly of what is
now known as Clarksville, little besides the Cartwright Grist Mill being
within the town as it now exists. Her
husband died in 1852, leaving the young wife with three children
surviving. She had many trials and
struggles through the next few years, but never lost courage or
patience. Early in life she became a
member of the Presbyterian church to which all her family belong, and
continued through her whole life an active worker in the cause of Christ,. Her life was indeed most pure and blameless
and affords a bright example of Christian virtue. Always charitable, kind and considerate for
others, her counsel was constantly sought in church matters, and her loss
will be much felt by her former associates.
Her illness dates [illegible line] her recovery until Wednesday of last week
when she was taken suddenly worse, and quietly passed away on Saturday
morning, respected by all who knew her, and beloved by all who enjoyed her
friendship. Only two children survive
her, W. Templeton, the respected publisher of our contemporary the “Beaver,
and Mrs. D. H. Preston, another son, James, having predeceased her some
twenty years. The funeral services
were conducted by Rev. D. McEachren, pastor of the Presbyterian church and
many of the large number present were moved to tears by his touching
references to the many virtues of the deceased. The Ladies’ Aid of the Presbyterian Church
purchased a very handsome wreath in Kingston as a floral tribute. |

Templeton, William |
It
is with feelings of regret and a deep sense of loss that we are called upon to
chronicle the death of Mr. Wm. Templeton, late editor and proprietor of this
paper, which occurred on Tuesday morning, 3d March, after a brief
illness. Three weeks ago today
deceased, who was not feeling as well as usual, left the office and went
home. The first week of his illness he
seemed to improve at times and no alarming symptoms developed until the
following week, when he sank rapidly and passed peacefully away to his
reward, after having spent a very successful and useful life. The best of medical skill was obtained,
doctors from Montreal and Kingston being in attendance with the local
profession, and all that loving hands and hearts could do was of no
avail Mr. Templeton was born in
Napanee on the 27th November, 1848, and with the exception of a
few years, has spent his whole life in our midst. When about seventeen years
of age he became an apprentice to the printing art, shortly after entering
The Napanee Express as journeyman.
Afterwards he spent a term in offices in Montreal, Toronto and New
York, where he completed his course at the business and was satisfied to
return to his boyhood home. In
partnership with Rm. Edw. Stevenson, he purchased The Beaver. At a later date Mr. Geo. M. Beeman and Mr.
W.C. Scott were associated with him in the office. In 1892, Mr. Templeton purchased the plant
and has conducted it ever since. So successful has his business career been
that The Beaver is a welcome weekly visitor into almost every home in the
town and county, and is recognized as one of the foremost journals of its
class, all due to his progressive spirit and business ability. Deceased was
closely identified with the general social interests of the community. He was a member of the Royal Arch Masons,
A.O.U.W., I.O.O.F., about twenty years has been United States Consul at
Napanee. For a number of years he was
also a valued member of the Board of Education. His death spells a distinct
loss for the whole community, especially for the Presbyterian church, of
which he had long been a devoted member.
He was an Elder of the church, and Clerk of the Session. Twenty-nine years ago he was united in
marriage to Miss Addie Perry, who, together with five children are left to
mourn the loss of a kind and loving husband and father. The children
are: Wm. A. and Janet, at home; Mrs. J. G. VanEvery, Owen Sound; Dr. Chas P. Templeton and Mrs. J. M.
McIntosh, Brandon, Man., who were all with him at the last. Mrs. D. H. Preston, a sister, also survives
him. A shadow of gloom was cast over
the whole town. His brother curlers
closed the rink all week, and on Thursday afternoon the schools were all
closed. Floral wreaths, bouquets and
flowers in profusion covered the casket and room. The funeral at the home on Thursday
afternoon was attended by a large concourse of friends and acquaintances from
near and far, showing the respect and esteem in which he was held by
all. The service was conducted by his
pastor, Rev. J. R. Conn, assisted by Rev. W. H. Emsley, after which the
beautiful burial service of the masons, who had charge of the funeral, was
read at the vault. His smiling
greeting will be greatly missed, not only in the home, but at the office and
on the street. His friends were legion,
ad expressions of sorrow an regret are heard on every hand. The bearers were Messrs. J. L. Boyes, W. H.
Boyle, J. W. Robinson, J. J. Flach, F. F. Miller, and W. T. Gibbard. |

his many friends in Picton when they learned of his demise early on Sunday
morning last. Very few knew of his
illness, which was only of some three days duration. He was in attendance at the county fair,

business of auctioneer and in this way has become widely known all over the
county of Prince Edward. He has also conducted many sales in Adolphustown and
vicinity. As an auctioneer he was not
only popular, but he also had the respect and confidence of the public
generally. He had a well deserved
reputation for fair dealing and his genial friendly manner made him friends
everywhere. For the last two or three
years he had added the agency of the Maxwell motor cars to his business and
only recently had also taken the local Studebaker agency. At the time of his death Mr. Thibault was
Deputy Reeve of the Town of Picton.
This was his second term in this position. He had previously held the position of
councillor in the town and was also some years ago a member of the Municipal
Council of the township of Hallowell. The deceased was an only son of Mr. Ed.
Thibault of Picton, and a nephew of Messrs. William Thibault of Picton and

assembled to do honor to his memory.
The Maxwell motor Co. of Windsor, Ont. Was represented at the funeral
by Mr. F. T. Hodgins, of Toronto. The

The following particulars relative to a late transaction have been
related to us on such authority that we do not hesitate in making them
public; at the same time we express our
astonishment that such a transaction should have been kept so long in the
dark. Shortly before the April Sessions, the body of a child was found in
the Napanee River near its mouth. An
inquest was held, and after the examination of Dr. Allen of Napanee, and
other witnesses, the Jury returned a verdict of “wilful murder against
some person or persons unknown.”
The same afternoon after interring the corpse, the Coroner and part of
the Jury returned to the village of Napanee, and some whispers being current,
that a shoemaker’s wife of the name of Thomson had been unknown to her
husband (to whom she had been married but three weeks,) delivered of an
infant, which infant was spirited away, some enquiries were made which led to
the examination of a Dr. Wallen (not Dr. Allen) before the Coroner and
another magistrate, and it came out, the Dr. Wallen had attended the woman in
question, and had delivered her of a dead child, which he had put
under the ice in the river. Some other
witnesses were examined, but no farther proceedings taken. The singularity attending this affair is,
that the woman should have been delivered of a child unknown to her husband,
and that the medical attendant should have taken upon himself the task of
grave-digger. |

Thurston, Stephen G. |
Cherry Valley Old Resident Passes Away The death occurred at his home on the Cherry Valley road, just west of
Picton, Tuesday, of Stephen G. Thurston, in his 93rd year. He was widely known as a blacksmith for 45 years and even better known
as an old time fiddler for more than half a century. During his apprenticeship in the blacksmith trade at Bath, he received
$25 the first year, $35 the second and $65 for the third year. From then on
it was $1 a day as long as he worked for someone else, but it was not long
before he was running his own shop at Bongards Corners, then at Glenora and
later in Picton. Mr. Thurston was wont to recall that in his early days shoes
were set for ten cents and new ones put on for 25 cents. On busy days there
were four or five teams waiting to be shod and 8 or 9 teams was a good day’s
work for a blacksmith. During the period he was at Glenora, Mr. Thurston recalled that the
ferry between Glenora and Adolphustown was operated by a horse power treader,
making the trip in thirteen minutes. Mail then came to Picton via the Bath
road and the Glenora ferry; by stage coach to Adolphustown and after the
ferry crossing at Glenora, Mr. Thurston drove the mail to Picton. As an old time fiddler, Mr. Thurston had few equals and he was in
great demand at the dances. For years he played for Hyatt and Macdonald at
the Sandbanks and for George Thibault at the Outlet. Mrs. Thurston, formerly Diana Minaker, died in 1916 and two sons and
two daughters also predeceased him. Surviving are a son Merton in Calgary and
a son Edward with whom he made his home. The funeral was held Wednesday afternoon at the A.M. Palmatier Funeral
Home with interment in Glenwood Cemetery. Rev. J.B. Creeggan officiated. |

Death of John Tierney. We have learned the following further particulars of the death of John
Tierney, referred to in our last issue. Deceased left home in Adolphustown on
April 6th, 1899, in company with Mr. R.W. Geddes, of Deseronto, arriving at
Prince Albert on 29th April. they continued their journey all summer and went
into winter quarters on 12th October. They erected a shack about 100 yards
from the mouth of a creek flowing into the Laird river, about 100 miles from
Fort Simpson and 1200 miles from Edmonton. In January deceased took a heavy
cold, which aided in bringing on a slight attack of scurvy. The sickness
continued to develop until 4th April, when death from heart failure relieved
him from his sufferings. Of course one can imagine that the diet off in that
distant part of our land where facilities of communication are not very good,
was none of the best and especially for an invalid. His comrades spent two
days whip sawing lumber to make a coffin. He was buried on the banks of the
Laird river, the service as written is the Church of England prayer book
being read. A cross as erected to mark the spot, and the name cut upon it. We
are indebted to Mr. Geddes for the foregoing information. Trail of Death Kingston, Aug 20 - John Tierney, of Adolphustown, who left over a year
ago for the Klondike, died last March on his way home. His party endured
great hardships going by the Edmonton route. Mr. Tierney was first taken down
with pneumonia and on his recovery scurvy set in, which caused his death. He
was over 60 years of age and a highly respected farmer of Adolphustown. |

W. Mr. Tierney retired in November

JAMIMA TINDALL - The subject of this short memoir was the second daughter of Benjamin
and Mary Jane Tindall. She commenced
her earthly pilgrimage in the township of Grey, county of Huron, Ontario, on
the 6th day of January, 1866. Very early in life she entered the Sabbath school, and never left it
until compelled to by sickness, which ended in death. To be found in the class gave her much
pleasure. And as soon as it was
thought prudent she was raised to the position of teacher - a position she
filled with credit to herself, advantage to her class, and satisfaction to
all concerned. The manner in which she
attended to her work, the interest she displayed and her success gave me and
others much pleasure. She was led to accept Christ as her Saviour when she was ten years of
age; and when she gave her heart to
God she gave herself to the Church.
And from that day to the day
that she joined the blood-washed company and her dear father before the
throne, she was a consistent member of the Methodist Church. I never saw a thing heard a word, or knew
an action not in harmony with Bible truth.
She was a good, faithful, successful missionary collector. But her work is done (and well done) the
journey of life is ended and she has entered into rest. Her death took place August 12th, 1886, and on the 14th,
her remains were laid to rest near her father. On Sabbath afternoon the writer preached to
a very large congregation from Jer. xv. 9
“She hath given up the ghost;
her sun is gone down while it was yet day.” Some people do their work soon, and well,
and early go to rest. May the reader
and writer meet her on the ever green shore.

CROSSED THE DARK RIVER - Picton
Gazette – The death of Mr. Almon C. Tobey occurred at the family residence,
west Main street, at an early hour on Monday morning, 10th
June. The evening previous he was out
walking about the house with his daughter, in his apparent usual health, when
he was suddenly taken with a fainting spell, followed by convulsive vomiting,
which ended his life about one o’clock.
About two years ago he had a severe stroke from which he never
recovered, gradually growing worse until death. He was a
great sufferer, but bore it patiently to the end. The deceased came to Picton from Napanee
about twenty odd years ago, engaging in the jewellery business, and was one
of our most affable and successful business men. He was twice married – his first wife being
Miss Minnie Haight, the second Miss Ola Hurlburt. Two children by his first wife – Raymond
and Zeita – survive him to mourn the loss of a kind and loving father. Deceased was 51 years of age. The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon
at 4 o’clock. The I.O Foresters, of which deceased was a member, attended in

THE LATE MRS. TOWNLEY - The mortal remains of this deeply respected lady, late wife of the
Rev. Adam Townley, D.D., Canon of Huron Cathedral, and Incumbent of St. James
Church in this town, who departed this life, on Monday evening, 3rd
April, surrounded by her husband, her Son and his Wife and several other
friends - were deposited (until the Church of England Cemetery is secured and
prepared) close by the Chancel of St. James’ Church, on the Thursday
following. The coffin, which was covered with purple velveteen, had a large
floriated oak Cross fastened on the lid, and with its beautiful Cross and
Wreath of flowers also, which were all put in the grave, spoke of those
bright hopes which were more than comforting to the sorrows of the
survivors. The bearers were Messrs.
Geo. Stanton, J. A. Penton, Thos. Ryall, F. H. Haycock, Thos. Clark and W. C.
Jones. The mourners were - the whole Parish!
- but especially her bereaved Husband, her Son, the Rev. C. E. Thomson, two
of her Grandsons; her brother in law, Mr. A. B. Townley, and her nephew, Mr.
H. C. Thomson; Dean Boomer, Archdeacon Marsh, Canon Nelles, Revds W. S.
Darling, Rural Dean Holland, E. E. Newman and A. Anthony, besides which a
long list of other friends, also attended. The body was carried by the bearers from the house to the Chancel of
the Church, which with the Clergyman’s pew, &c., was deeply draped in
black - and thence to the Grave close adjoining. The service was effectively read by the
Revds Dean Boomer, H. Holland, and W. S. Darling - the last of whom also
delivered a touching address, as being the oldest clerical friend of the
deceased, who was present. The Choir
also rendered their affectionate aid.
It is needless to say that the Church was very full, alike from strong
regard to Mrs. Townley and genuine sympathy with her sorrowing husband. Indeed we are pleased, though not
surprised, to learn that sympathy, both at home, and by letter, has been
overflowingly expressed with the lonely grief of our, no longer young, but
highly respected Rector; very many old
friends sending their deep expressions of regret at being unable to be
present, from a mistake regarding the time and place of burial, or from
previous engagements. Among them were the Bishops of Huron, N---- and
Toronto, and a letter from Mr. -----, the Bishop of Algoma being ------. In our deceased friend we lose another of those ancient Canadian
landmarks that link the present with the past. Mrs.
Elizabeth Townley was the only daughter of the late Wm. Ruttan, Esq.,
of the Bay of Quinte, and officer in the British Army of the United States
during the Revolutionary War, who, at its close, came with his young wife,
his elder brother, Captain Ruttan, and other United Empire Loyalists to
Canada, settling at once on the Bay of Quinte, where he and his wife died in
ripe old age. Their daughter, our late
deceased friend, was born October 27th, 1800. She was married at a very early age to Hugh
C. Thomson, Esq., of Kingston, Member of the Provincial Parliament, for
Frontenac, the father of her remaining son, the Rev. C. E. Thomson, M.A.,
Rector of Elora, diocese of Niagara, and Rural Dean. Mrs. Thomson was left a widow in the prime
of life, and was married to her now sorrowing husband, the Rev. Dr. Townley,
the 20th of April, 1837. For energy of character, strong conscientiousness and an earnest
effort to walk godly in Christ Jesus, Mrs. Townley, was, we know, highly
distinguished. Take her moral, mental
and Christian characteristics all in all, and we really think that we are
more than commonly justified in saying: “We ne’er shall look upon her like again.” And, notwithstanding that she was spared to
so ripe and age (upwards of 75 years) and departed so calmly and with such
bright prospects beyond, yet we cannot withhold our sincere sympathies from
her bereaved Husband and Son, and other deeply attached friends, in this
their irreparable loss. The Late Mrs. Townley - We perceive by the Paris Star that the remains
of the late Mrs. Townley, who died April
3rd, wife of the late Rev. Adam Townley, D.D., Canon of Huron
Cathedral, were buried on Thursday. Mrs. Elizabeth Townley was the only

A Very Sudden Death - The many friends of Miss Gladys Trumpour were shocked to hear of her
sudden death in a Toronto hospital on Saturday. About a week ago, Miss
Trumpour went to Toronto to attend the funeral of her brother-in-law, and
while there had a bad spell. Medical attention was secured and she was
advised than an operation was necessary. The operation was performed on
Wednesday and apparently successful, and the news on Saturday afternoon that
she was dead cast a gloom over the town. Miss Trumpour was a former resident
of Adolphustown and came to Napanee with her mother several years ago, and
during her residence in Napanee, endeared herself to a very large circle of
friends, especially among the younger people. |

OBITUARY – Samuel Dorland Trumpour – Early Sunday morning last, All
Saints’ Day, Samuel Dorland Trumpour, well known to the citizens of Napanee,
was most peacefully called from his residence in Adolphustown to enter the
fold of the church at rest. The
funeral was held the following Tuesday at St. Alban’s Church, the Rector,
Rev. W. Roberts, Mus. Doc., conducting the service. The deceased was born in Adolphustown being
a descendant of the old Trumpour and Dorland families, which originally of
Dutch extraction, lived in New York State until after the Revolutionary War,
and then came to Canada among the pioneer U.E. Loyalists. Mr. Trumpour in earlier life lived in
Prince Edward County, and was for fifteen years a resident of Napanee; the remainder of his life was spent in
Adolphustown. He was a lifelong
supporter of the conservative party, and is among a very few who can lay
claim to the distinction of having gone to school with Sir John A
Macdonald. In religion the deceased
worshipped in the old Quaker meeting house, which still stands on the shores
of Hay Bay, but on the breaking up of the Quakers as a distinct sect, he
transferred his allegiance to the Church of England. Mr. Trumpour was of a retiring disposition; he never sought public office or publicity
in any way. Industry was the keynote
of his character, and by this means he amassed considerable property. He served in the Fenian Raids in 1866 and
was among those of the surviving veterans who received medals in recognitions
of their services. Until the last few
years he had enjoyed the best of health, having seldom suffered a day of
illness. In 1870, he married a
daughter of the late Joseph Losee, who still survives him. He also leaves three children, Mrs. W. S.
Wannamaker, of Ameliasburgh; Herbert a
prosperous and progressive farmer in Adolphustown, and Harry, studying for
the ministry at Wycliffe College, Toronto, and an honor graduate of the
University of Toronto. |

[*NOTE - In original, spelling is “Trumpom”] MRS. SARAH TRUMPOUR - Mrs.
Sarah Trumpour, whose maiden name was Bowers, was born in the township of
Sophiasburg, Prince Edward county, Ont., in the year 1817. She was converted to God in early life, and
united with the Wesleyan Church, her after Christian life affording undoubted
evidence of the genuine change grace had wrought in her. In after years, in her married life she was
happy, for her husband was a partner of the same like precious faith. Settling
in the township of Hillier, she became a member of the Methodist
Society at Wellington. She held
correct views of the higher Christian life and being an ardent lover of
‘scriptural holiness,’ as taught by the Methodist church, she always gave
unwavering testimony of the fact, in her own experience, that the blood of
Jesus Christ cleanseth from all sin.
This grace made her active in Christian service, exemplary in
Christian life and character, and in ripeness and maturity of Christian experience to be called in at
true sense, “a mother in Israel.” Towards the close of life a paralytic stroke
partially disabled her for work, although recovering therefrom to a certain
extent yet it left a sense of feebleness.
For two or three years prior to her death she resided with her
youngest son in Bloomfield, and united with Methodist Society in that
place. For a time during the past
winter she experienced a sense of more than ordinary weakness, which proved
to be the token of approaching dissolution.
On the morning of Feb. 8th, 1886, while reclining to seek repose,
and saying to the family as her last utterance and dying testimony, “I am
going to sleep with Jesus,” she
peacefully fell asleep in Christ, in the 69th year of her
age. Her happy spirit rests forever
with the lord. Her remains were
interred in the burying ground at Wellington by the side of her husband. May the family follow their beloved
Christian parents, and fulfil all their promises to meet them in that
heavenly home beyond. [signed] W.

Tupper, Rev.
Reuben E. |
REV.
REUBEN E. TUPPER - Rev.
Reuben E. Tupper was born in the county of Leeds, on the 12th of
December, 1809. When about nine years
of age he yielded to the Spirit’s pleading and was led to trust in Jesus
Christ for salvation. Much of the
cheerful Christian experience and loving fidelity of his later years may be
traced to his early acceptance of Christ as his Saviour and consecration to
his service. In
1836, in response to the Master’s call, he engaged in the work of the
Christian ministry, but after one year of service he was compelled, on
account of ill health to locate for three years. Returning to the work, after the usual
probationary term he was received into full connexion and ordained at the
Conference of 1843. Never possessing a
vigorous constitution, he was obliged in 1855 to superannuate, in which
relation he remained for seven years. Returning
to the work in 1862, he spent about five years in faithful circuit service,
followed by four or five years in charge of Mount Elgin Industrial
School. He again superannuated in
1871. Three years more of rest, one of
service at Mount Brydges, eleven of superannuation at London, and Bro. Tupper
exchanged a changeful for the changeless life. On Sunday, March 7th, after a
brief illness, he entered the rest that remaineth. As a
man Bro. Tupper was respected and beloved.
His quiet and often quaint demeanor, his kindly spirit and benevolent
nature, won for him not only a very desirable place in private friendship,
but also a large share of public esteem. As a
Christian he enjoyed a steady and constantly increasing wealth of happy
experience. He had a strong love and
deep reverence for the Word of God, and a growing attachment to the people of
God. Their fellowship was his joy and
delight. His zeal for the peace and
prosperity of Zion was very marked.
Her services to him were sweet and sacred. With great gladness of soul he was often
heard singing those beautiful lines: “Beyond
my highest joy, I
prize her heavenly ways, Her
sweet communion solemn vows, Her
hymns of love and praise.” As a
minister, Brother Tupper was called and chosen and faithful. Though subject to much physical infirmity,
sufficient to dishearten many yet such were his love and zeal for the work to
which he was called, that he never hesitated regarding the call of duty, but
did his work cheerfully and to the best of his ability. On
the 21st of February he attended church service for the last time,
saying at its close, “The Lord send thee help from the sanctuary, and
strengthen thee out of Zion.” On
the following Saturday he was taken ill, without any expectation of recovery
on his part. The thought of speedy
removal did not disturb his mind. His
trust in Jesus was unshaken. He richly
enjoyed the rest of faith, and rejoiced in strong assurance and hope of the
rest of heaven. After
one week’s illness he passed away in the triumph of Christian faith. He “was not, for God took him.” R.J. TRELEAVEN |

breaking and winding his left arm tight to the pulley. He made one cry for help, but when Mr.

- John W. Unger - Daniel
Unger, who in pre-union days, was an ordained deacon in the Methodist
Episcopal Church, shortly after his marriage settled in South
Fredericksburgh, on the farm which has since become the Unger homestead. There was born on Sept. 13th,
1846, a son, who was baptized John Wesley.
He had four brothers and three sisters. As a young man he, having the ministry in
view, studied for some time in Albert College. On account of ill health he had to abandon
that calling. He was a life long
member of Grace Methodist Church, of which church he was one of the oldest
trustees and remained an official until his death. His mind was well stored with the Holy
Scriptures, and many will not soon forget his recitations of long passages in
the Quarterly Fellowship meetings. During
the past year Time’s grim reaper has been very active in the Unger
family. Only about a year ago Nathan
was called to go, about a month ago, Nelson followed, and on Feb. 11th,
John was summoned to meet his two brothers on the other shore. His wife and two daughters, Ethel and Lilly, predeceased him many years. He leaves to mourn his loss three sons,
Schuyler in the West, Edison in Montreal, Gerald on the homestead; and two daughters, Mrs. Vaughn, of Ottawa,
and Miss Ella, of Fall River, Mass. A
good citizen, a kind father and a Christian gentleman has left us. His
funeral, in charge of his Pastor, Rev. W. P. Rogers, took place on Sunday,
the 13th, in Grace Church.
The remains were placed in the Riverview vault. The

On Friday
night quite a commotion was created by the announcement of the death of Miss
Annie Urquhart. Deceased had been in poor health for some months and had
grown despondent and had been noticed and remarked to be acting strangely at
times, so much so that she had been under partial surveillance. At a time
unnoticed, when she was supposed to have gone to her room, to retire for
the night, she gave the other members
of the family (her mother and brother with whom she resided) the slip, and
got out into the darkness and jumped into a deep well, convenient to the
house. Her absence was almost immediately noticed, the alarm given and search
made, with the result, that after a careful search of the premises in the
darkness, her body was discovered in the well in which there was over six
feet of water. The deceased was forty years of age. The funeral took place at
the Lutheran church at 2.30 p.m., Sunday, service being conducted by Rev.
W.W. Peck, M.A., of Napanee, assisted by Rev. W.T. Wickett, Morven. Miss
Annie Urquhart, of Chambers, aged about forty years, was found drowned in the
well of Mr. George Crabbe, of that place, last Friday night about 10 o'clock.
Deceased had been ailing mentally for some time past. Much sympathy is
expressed for her widowed mother and her brother. URQUHART

OBITUARY
- At Deseronto, on Wednesday, 24th March, 1915, at 8 p.m., at the
age of 79 years, 7 months and 11 days, Mr. Gordon D. G. Valleau fell asleep
in Jesus. Mr. Valleau was converted to
God when a boy and had been a consistent member of the Methodist Church up
until his departure. During all those
years he walked with God closely. Bro.
Valleau loved to serve his Master. In
1859, he gave himself up to the ministry and was a grand local preacher, and
was an instrument in God’s hands of bringing many souls to seek a higher and
nobler life. He conducted a great many
revivals at Mount Pleasant and Selby.
For the past few years he had been unable to attend the church he
dearly loved as often as he would like, but he was always willing to lend a
helping hand to any who needed help and to give comforting and cheering words
to any in trouble. He was a man very
highly appreciated and respected by all who knew him; a good man in the church and a loving and
affectionate husband and father in the home.
He leaves to mourn his loss a loving wife and three sons, the two
eldest residing at Gananoque, and Gordon at home with his mother; also two
brothers, William, of Saskatchewan, and George W., of Selby. One brother passed away on the 13th
of March, 1915, at California. Still
we sorrow not as those who have no hope, for his life and testimony is a
benediction still and his family shall surely call him blessed as they recall
his simple faith and trust in Christ.
We commit his body to the dearth in a sure and certain hope of a part
in the first resurrection. “Let me die
the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like his.” |

Valleau, Willet |
Mr.
Willet Valleau - At
Allisonville on the morning of April 25, 1924, there passed away in the
better land, Mr. Willet Valleau. He
was one of Prince Edward county’s oldest citizens, and was almost 90 years of
age. He was born in the Burr
neighborhood, in Hillier, in September, 1834.
He was the son of Peter and Martha Potter Valleau, and the grandson of
Cornelius and Ann Rowe Valleau, and the great grandson of Lieut. Peter
Valleau, who left New York city September 8, 1783, and who landed on the
shores of Adolphustown, June 16, 1784.
On both sides of the family tree, all of his great-grandparents were
among that now famous band of United Empire Loyalists whose names are
immortalized in Canadian history. As
time passed hoary years rested gently on his trembling frame and playfully
crowned his brow with roseate hue, like the lingering rays of the setting
sun. But few of all those who begin
life here in mortality’s vale succeed in reaching so great an age. Rarely do we find one whose career is
measured off by four score years and ten.
His wife, who was Miss Edith Snider, daughter of George Snider, one of
the old pioneers of Massassaga Point, predeceased him about four years
ago. Since then he has oftimes been
lonely, and with eyes bedimmed with age, he has been standing, leaning on his
staff like pious Jacob of old, and looking across death’s narrow stream
beyond the tide. Tired, weary,
careworn, he stood peering through the lattice, anxiously awaiting the
summons - the echo of the harvest call.
Of a family of seven sons and three daughters only one is left, Mrs.
W. K. Burr of Lockport, Illinois. In
politics Mr. Valleau was a Liberal; in
religion, a Methodist. In the year
1860, during a revival meeting at Crofton, conducted by the Rev. Hiram
Williams of the M. E. Church, he and his wife were converted. And for many years he was a member of the
official board, and a leading member of the church. He was naturally kind hearted, genial,
gently and obliging. His home was a
home for he preachers, and they were always generously entertained and
received a most cordial welcome and Christian greeting. He
was a remarkably kind husband, a good parent and an obliging neighbor. He had a family of two sons and two
daughters. They are all living and
were in attendance at the funeral; Mr.
Stanley E. Valleau of Toronto, Mrs.
Robert Hazzard of Bloomfield, Mrs. Samuel Rankin of Salmon Point, and Mr.
Grant Valleau of Allisonville with whom Mr. Valleau resided at the time of
his death. The funeral was held at the
Burr church and was very largely attended.
The gallery and aisles, as well as the body of the church, were all
occupied. The Rev. Gardnier of the
Melville circuit officiated. His theme
was: “Precious in the sight of the
Lord is the death of His saints.” His
address was appropriate and was listened to with marked attention. Mr. Densmore Ainsworth and son, of
Wellington, were the funeral directors.
Interment was made in the Burr cemetery. Truly, precious in the sight of the Lord is
the death of His saints. The
death last week of Mr. Willet Valleau, at the home of his son, Mr. Grant
Valleau, removes one of the oldest and most highly respected residents of
Hillier township. He was a man of
industry, honesty and integrity - a type of the sturdy, God-fearing men,
whose lives have enriched the rural communities. The deceased, who was ill but a few days,
was in his ninetieth year. He was a
member of the Methodist church.
Surviving are two daughters, Mrs. Rankin and Mrs. Hazard of
Bloomfield, and two sons, Stanley of Toronto, and Grant on the
homestead. The funeral, which was
largely attended, was held on Sunday afternoon from his late residence to
Burr’s church, where Rev. G. W. Gardner spoke from the text, Psalm 116-15, “Precious
in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.” the choir, with Mrs. Hogle as accompanist,
contributed a beautiful selection.
Interment was made in Burr’s cemetery, the bearers being, Messrs.
Charles McFaul, Lewis McFaul, Bruce McFaul, Merritt McFaul, Spencer Huffman
and George Ferguson. |

Valleyan, Child |
Sad
Occurrence - A very melancholy affair occurred last night at Selby. A child
of Mr. William Valleyan, between 6 and 7 years of age, was sick with croup,
and the doctor had prescribed steaming. This was done by dropping a hot iron
into a tub of water and holding the child, wrapped in a blanket, over a tub.
The little sufferer begged his mother not to hold him over the steam, as he
would be scalded, and she endeavored to quiet his fears, but he said he knew
he would be scalded. The little fellow's fears were but too well founded -
the iron was too hot, and the child was scalded so badly that he died shortly
after. the mother was frantic with grief, and it was feared for some days
that her reason was permanently gone; but we are pleased to learn she is improving. |

DEATH'S
HARVEST - Mrs. Elliott VanAlstine -- Passed peacefully away to rest last
Monday morning, after an illness of but a few weeks, cut off in the first
flush of womanhood. Deceased was married to her bereaved husband about four
years ago, coming to Napanee as a bride. She proved herself a model wife, and
gained the respect and esteem of all who had the pleasure of her
acquaintance. She bore her trying illness with Christian fortitude, and died
surrounded by her husband and friends. Deceased was a daughter of Mr. David
Young, of Sillsville. Mrs. VanAlstine was an active member of the Ladies Aid
of the Presbyterian church, and will be greatly missed by the members of the
Society. The funeral services were conducted by her pastor, Rev. W.W. Peck
and were largely attended, the members of Napanee Lodge I.O.O.F. of which Mr.
VanAlstine is a member, attending in a body. The handsome casket was covered
with wreaths and flowers, the last thoughtful tokens from loving and admiring
friends. The sympathy of the whole community goes out to Mr. VanAlstine and
the bereaved friends in this their hour of trial. It
is our sad duty today to report the death of Mrs. Elliot Vanalstine, which
occurred yesterday evening at five o'clock, after an illness of over five
weeks. Deceased, whose maiden name was Ella Young, eldest daughter of David
Young of Sillsville, was in her 25th year, and had been married
only about four years. The sorrowing husband, father, mother and relatives
have the heartfelt sympathy of all. About six weeks ago, Mrs. Vanalstine was
taken ill with an attack of grippe, which could not be arrested although the
best medical aid both in Napanee and Kingston was employed. For a time it was
hoped that the disease was overcome but Mrs. Vanalstine grew weaker each day
and being unable to take any solid food for over five weeks she became so
weakened that the disease proved fatal. The funeral will be announced later. |

wife of C.W. Vance and daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Vandorne Marvin, passed away
at her father's home, North Fredericksburgh, on Sunday morning last at the
early age of 24 years and 10 months. Deceased had been ailing for some months
past of that dread disease consumption. She was married to our former
townsman, Mr. C.W. Vance, in 1896 and moved to Watertown in the same year. In
1898 they moved to Sandy Creek, N.Y., where Mr. Vance secured a situation as
foreman in a printing office. During their stay in Sandy Creek, Mrs. Vance
contracted a cold, consumption finally setting in. In June, 1901, deceased
was removed to Watertown for treatment, but was advised by her physician to
come home, which she did, accompanied by her husband, on July 9th. During their
stay at her father's home she gradually sank until death relieved her on
Sunday morning. The funeral was held on Monday at 2 p.m., and was largely
attended. Rev. Farnsworth, of the Bay circuit, preached a very impressive
sermon, referring very feelingly to the beautiful character and life of the
departed. Besides her husband she leaves three children, a girl 4 years old
and a boy and a girl (twins), 2 years old, father and mother and one sister,
Mrs. Chauncey Hicks, Marlbank. The bereaved relatives have the sympathy of a

Eastern cemetery. The pall-bearers were Messrs. F.J. Vanalstine, Jos. Powell,
Albert B. Root, E.J. Pollard, Harry Vanalstine and Geo. Grass, former

VanDusen, Rev. Conrad |
Death
of Rev. C. Vandusen - The
Christian Guardian last week contained the following: - "Just as we are
going to press we receive the following note from the Rev. W.H. Laird: The
Rev. Conrad Vandusen passed away peacefully on the evening of yesterday. He
had been in very feeble health for some months - expectantly waiting for his
release. Our venerable friend hailed his hour of departure with
delight." The deceased was well known throughout the whole country. He
was one of the oldest ministers of the Methodist Church of Canada, and was
born in the Township of Adolphustown, not many years after its first
settlement by U.E. Loyalists. His father kept the first public house between
Kingston and York, and when converted deliberately cut down his sign with an
axe and banished liquor from the premises. The subject of this brief notice
had been superannuated for several years, and resided at Whitby. |

VanLuven, Cornelius |
The
Late Cornelius Van Luven Esq. We
regret to have to announce the death of Cornelius Van Luven, Esq., which took
place on Dec. 27th. He
passed quietly away after a short illness, at the family homestead,
Murvale. He was born in the year 1800,
and his age at the time of his death was 82 years and a few months. He was one of a long-lived family. One brother died on Thanksgiving day, aged
85 years; another brother lives at
Battersea, aged 88 years; there are also two aged sisters living. The family came from near Albany, N.Y. His grandfather was one of the first
settlers near Bath in the township of Ernesttown, long before the
Revolutionary war. Cornelius, when a
young man, was in the employ of John G. Cartwright, Esq., by whom he was much
respected and trusted. Mr. Cartwright
was desirous that Young Van Luven should take charge of his outside business
which was very large, but he was more inclined to be independent and at the
age of 28 years he purchased from J. S. Cartwright, Esq., the farm and
homestead where he had resided for over 54 years. In 1824 he married Sarah Amey, a descendant
of an U.E. Loyalist family that came from Little Falls, N.Y., at the time of
the Revolutionary war. Her grandfather
and a neighbor went one day to the woods to chop, but not returning search
was made and their bodies were found mutilated and scalped by Indians. The family then sought refuge in Canada
under the British flag. Mrs. VanLuven
is 78 years of age and feels keenly the separation from her husband. They had a family of ten children - one dead
and nine living, seven of whom were boys and two girls, all married and
occupying respectable positions. They
are: G. W. VanLuven, Brockville, who
has one daughter; Zara Van Luven,
merchant and postmaster, Moscow, who has one son a gaoler at Napanee, another
a clerk in Hinch & Scott’s and two others at home; Peter Van Luven, Esq., retired farmer,
Moscow, who is a director of the N. T. & Q. Railway and a J.P.; Alpheus VanLuven, manufacturer, Yarker, and
President of the Branch Reform Association.
The latter is married to a daughter of the late Samuel Scott, another
old U.E. family; their son assists the
father in his business and the daughter is married to Mr. John Ewart, woollen
manufacturer, and an ingenious mechanic and taxidermist, whose studio is full
of rare specimens of art which are worthy of inspection. Michael VanLuven, Sydenham, harness-maker
and independent; Jane Van Luven
married Mr. Geo. Robinson, paper maker, Newburgh; Thos. Van Luven, Esq., county Treasurer,
Frontenac, is another son; John B. Van
Luven, another son, resides on the homestead and works the farm.’; Emily Van Luven married Mr. George McKay,
Brockville, conductor G.T.R. and has one child. Cornelius Van Luven’s course through life
was characterized by straightforwardness, integrity and perseverance, which
gave him a position of esteem in the hearts of all who became acquainted with
him. In early life he joined the Wesleyan Methodist Church and for over
fifty years was a constant attendant in the house of God and for a long time
a class leader and always active for the interests of the church. He was genial and unobtrusive and no cause
which he considered right ever appealed to him in vain. He was a constant advocate of temperance
principles; always opposed to the
liquor business in every shape and form. In politics he was a Reformer from
principle. Early in life he identified
himself with that noble band of patriots that stood out firmly against the
tyranny of the family compact. He
never wavered in his allegiance to Liberal principles and he had the
satisfaction to see tyranny in church and state overthrown and responsible
government established. Within his
lifetime Canada has advanced from one province to a Dominion of seven,
extending from the Atlantic to the Pacific Oceans. His long life includes parts of the reigns
of four British Sovereigns. He was a
lad of five when Trafalgar was fought, in his teen when Wellington overthrew
Napoleon at Waterloo. When a lad 12
years old he drove his brother to Kingston to join his regiment to take part
in the war of 1812 and he was attracted by the music to join as a drummer
boy, but he had to take the horses home and take care of the old folks, his
mother anxiously awaiting his return.
In the rebellion of 1837-38 he was one who went to Kingston and took
up arms against the rebels, giving the lie to those who now-a-days look upon
the Reformers of that day as rebels, for no more loyal set of men ever lived
than the Reformers of ’37 and ’38, and among them Cornelius Van Luven was one
who stood in the front to defend the rights of the Crown and the Freedom of
the people. What a lot of wonderful
events have occurred since this old veteran came into the world at the
commencement of the present century?
In his time railways, steamboats, steam printing presses, matches,
telegraphing, telephone, and a multitude of other improvements in agriculture
came into use. He leaves behind him an
example worthy of imitation and a name that his children may be proud
of. His life should be an example to
those who have wandered away from their first principles and are now
unrespected even by those who they have joined. Let them return, and thus like our departed
friend, leave behind them an honoured name which is better than great riches. |

VanLuven, Martha Emily (nee Hoffman) |
Late
Mrs. Peter VanLuven Reminiscent
of Pioneer Days of the Hoffman Settlement There
was laid to rest in Yarker United Church cemetery recently the mortal remains
of Mrs. Peter VanLuven, formerly of that place, but latterly of Brockville. Martha
Emily Hoffman was born in the Hoffman Settlement, township of Camden,
Addington County, on February 19, 1838, and was in her eighty-ninth year at
the time of her departure. Her demise has severed the last remaining link
with pioneer days in that neighborhood. She was the daughter of Elijah
Hoffman and Agnes Neville. Elijah and his brother Jacob were the first
settlers in the district. The two brothers were of United Empire Loyalist
stock, and came to the country in 1823, taking up their allotments of land
along what is now known as Hoffman Street. At that time there were no roads,
and the Hoffman brothers were obliged to pack their supplies over blazed
trails through the solid forests from below Napanee, a distance of over
twenty miles. Their father, Elias Hoffman, was one of that company of brave
and true loyalists to the British cause in the Revolutionary War that landed
upon the shores of the Bay of Quinte sometime toward the end of the
eighteenth century. He crossed over from South Fredericksburgh and located
along the Napanee River, a short distance from where the town of that name
now stands. It was there that Elijah and Jacob were raised, and from there
that they set out through the wilderness to locate and build up homes for
themselves. Over
a century has passed away since the two brothers first came into the woods of
what in later years was known as the “Hoffman Settlement.” There they cleared
the land, built their homes and raised their families. The last member of the
second generation of Hoffmans to be called away was Martha Emily, youngest
daughter of pioneer Elijah Hoffman. At
the age of twenty-one years she was joined in marriage to Peter VanLuven, who
predeceased her some fifteen years. She had been a life-long Methodist, a
devoted Christian and a faithful worker in the church to which she belonged.
She was the mother to two children, one of which, Franklin E. died in 1922,
the other, Nellie E. (Mrs. M.C. Dunn), living in Brockville. After
retiring from the farm Mr. and Mrs. VanLuven came to Yarker to live; and
after the former’s death, Mrs. VanLuven went to live with her daughter, Mrs.
Dunn. She leaves behind her a host of friends, who remember her as one whose
door and whose heart were always open to welcome them, and whose hand was
always outstretched in friendliness and charity. G.T.

OBITUARY
- THE LATE JOHN VINE - Death
came with startling suddenness to one of Napanee’s best known and highly respected
residents in the person of Mr. John Vine, who passed away very shortly after
the midnight hour on Monday morning.
Although Mr. Vine had not been in the best of health for some time, he
was around as usual, and on Sunday morning, after partaking of a hearty
breakfast, took very ill and all day Sunday his condition was very serious,
in fact so much so that word was sent to his daughter, Mrs. Treleaven, in
Toronto, to come to Napanee at once.
Death was due to heart trouble, of which he had been a sufferer for
some time. Mr. Vine was one of seven
children, and he was the last surviving member of the family. His parents were Mr. and Mrs. Edward Vine,
and he was born and always resided in Napanee. He was 82 years of age and was one of the
oldest members of Argyll Lodge No. 212, l.O.O.F. He loved Oddfellowship, and until a few
years ago was a regular attendant at the lodge session. He was also a lifelong member of Trinity
Church. His passing came as a great
shock to his many friends in Napanee and district. Surviving are his widow, who before her
marriage was Miss Fairbairn, three sons, A. G. Vine and George Vine, of
Winnipeg; John Vine, of Watertown and
four daughters, Mrs. W. B. Sills, and Mrs. Edwin Miller, Napanee; Mrs. Treleaven, of Toronto, and Miss Laura
Vine, Reg. N., of New York City. His
son, A. G. Vine, of Winnipeg, spent a few days last week in town with his
parents and had just recently returned to the west. |

Napanee,
Nov. 4 - Another respected and aged resident of Napanee, Mrs. William
Vrooman, mother of Dr. J.P. Vrooman of this town, died on Wednesday afternoon.
She had been ailing for some months and during the past week had seemed not
quite as well as usual, but was not thought to be seriously worse until the
end came rather suddenly. Mrs. Vrooman has been a life-long resident of the
county, being the daughter of Mr. Richard Ham of South Fredericksburgh and
after her marriage lived in Centreville, where she has many friends as well
as in Napanee and vicinity. Her husband predeceased her many years ago, but
she leaves behind her five children, Mrs. Nelson Wagar and Miss Vrooman of
Napanee and Mrs. Thomas Barry of Tamworth and Dr. J.P. Vrooman and Mr.
Bidwell Vrooman, postmaster of Walkerville, who will most sincerely mourn her
loss. VROOMAN
