early age she idso took a great interest in the work of the c this 1 luive learned not from her but from outsiders she was a woman of cry strong convictions ilwrteiui ng was very wide and she look u great interest in the doings of the english public schools and univer sities with for family reasons mid strong leanings towards cambridge her political leanings were all con- servative but 1 never knew her lo show any rancoua towaids those of opposite opinion disraeli was her idol but i was taught that gladstone was a great man too and that is why- engravings of both thse statesmen find a place on my walls under dif ferent auspices she would liave ably taken her place among the other members other family who attained prominent positions in the social business and professional world al though these connections were mostly manufacturers and business people one cousin was a priest qf the church of england and another became the wife of sir william broadbent phy- sioian to tlie late king edward but it was her destiny to come to can ada in 1870 with no influence and very little of this worlds goods yet almoet at once in spite of the fact that she had three small children we find both she and her husband teach ing sunday school classes in trinity church gait moving after two years to cold springs we find ber hard at work helping along the church services conducted in a public schoolroom thence to dundas later to ancaster then to kilbride then to norval and always tho saino story of devotion to the church coming to glon williams in 1078 her history since then has been the bibtory of the church of strong catholic ouuvictions she did not quarrel with those whose opinions were more evangelical and worked just as earnestly with them as with those who were more in accord with her ideas it was the church that mattered not her opinions but in the end it was her ideals that pre vailed with the building of st georges new church in 1879 my father began to take a more active part in official church work became a delegate to the synod and for mauy years never missed a session mother always accompanied him and was an interested spectator of all its doings from the gallery and no doubt after ter of all victorian women exercised a good deal of inflnence over the voting then came the founding of the womens auxiliary of which she was a charter member later its president for something like thirty three years she turned the first sod of st albans glen williams in 1902 and although a teacher in tlie sunday school until after her eightieth year never missed a service she could possibly attend and aided it of her means and abilities in every possible way i do not recall that she ever accepted any official position preferring to con tinue her connection with st georges auxiliary she was a rep resentative to the diocesan auxiliary for many many years and was as well known among them as in her own branch mother hod many bitter borrows bnt she did- not let them sour her disposition or impair her usefulness she had six sons and two daughters but both the daughters died my father was only 66 when he died and she had many disappointments of a material kind buffering many times by fire andnood and the dishonesty of those whom my father trusted but with it all thanks to heriappy dis position she got a groat deal out of life and as mr wase said on mon day left the world much better for being in it the years from 1880 i have always considered as the golden era of glen wil liams and mother was one of that band of women who gave such per sonal service to
