Death of Mr. Henry Buchanan On Friday morning last Mr. Henry Buchanan, of No. 6 Elgin street, Hamilton, passed away quietly to the invisible world, at the grand old age of 84 years. Deceased was born in Ireland in the year 1800. He came to this country in 1824, first settling in Montreal where he resided for the long period of 25 years. During his residence there he lived through the troublous times incident upon the rebellion of 1837. He also was a resident of that city when the great Cholera swept over the land, carrying death and desolation in its wake. He was for over half a century a member of the Methodist Church, and was a man of spotless character. Although retiring in disposition, he made many warm and sincere friends. Through all the trying scenes of his long and eventful life, his faith and trust in God was firm and immovable. His walk and conversation was ever upright and pure in the sight of God and man. He was a strict temperance man all his life; and even when the shadow of death was passing over him, he would not taste any medicine which he supposed might contain alcohol as one of its ingredients. He did not use tobacco in any form. He was a man of splendid intellect, and had he been less retiring and unassuming, might have mad his mark in the higher walks of life. Of a contented, cheerful disposition, and being well read in the higher class of religious literature, his conversation was pleasant and instructive to those who yearned for something beyond the mere worldly affairs of this life. "Man wants but little, and that little long." Mr. Buchanan leaves a widow (to whom he was married for the long period of 57 years), two sons and three daughters. The eldest son, Mr. C.H. Buchanan is in the staff of the Hamilton Times job room department, and the second, Mr. J.G. Buchanan is the city editor of that journal. One of the daughters is the wife of the Rev. J. C. Bell, Methodist minister, living near Cobourg; another lives at home; the third, Amelia, is the wife of the Editor of this paper. the funeral took place from the late residence of the deceased, Elgin street, last Sunday at 3:30 o'clock p.m., and was very largely attended, many of the leading citizens being among those who accompanied the funeral procession to Burlington cemetery, where the last sad rites were performed. The chief mourners were Messrs. J. G. and C. H. Buchanan, the two sons of the deceased, with the two sons-in-law, Rev. J. C. Bell and Mr. A. R. Fawcett. The pall bearers were Ald. Allen, Ald. Carruthers, Mr. H. F. Gardner, editor-in-chief of the Hamilton Times, ex-Ald. Evans, ex-Ald. Matthews, and Wm. Clucas, School Trustee. Rev. Mr. VanWyck, of the Gore street Methodist Church officiated at the house and grave, assisted by Rev. Mr. Koyle, who is occupying the pulpit of the Centenary Church during the Rev. Mr. Carson's absence in Europe. The body was encased in a handsome casket, and the beautiful floral tributes testified to the high esteem in which both deceased and the members of his family were held by a large circle of acquaintances. Sudden Death A son of Mr. Jonathan Hickling, Artemesia, died very suddenly last Sunday. He ate as hearty a meal as any other member of the family, and expired a short time afterwards. He was over twenty years of age. LJLJ i m At the Lowest Possible Prices at the FLESHERTON PHOTOGRAPH GALLERY! Framing in all its branches. Call and see stock.
