The deceased, who was a kind and cheerful disposition will be much mis- sed by those v.ho knew him. He was bom in England, in the year 1848, and with his parents, came to Canada at the age of five years, where in the year 1877 he was un- ited in marriage to Sarah Jane Os- borne and to them twelve children were born, eight of whom are liv- ing and are left to mourn the loss of a kind and loving father, namely: (Jennie) Mrs. Edward Armstrong. Lockwood Sask., John, Sherman, and George of the 12th line of Osprey. (Alice) Mrs. Arthur White of Col- lingwood; Isaac on the old home- stead, 10th line, Osprey; James on the 8th line Osprey; and (Carrie) Mrs. George Waller of Flesherton. Four brother and four sisters also survive, namely: Johni and. James of the 12th line, Osprey Samuel of Feversham and Richard of Areola, Sask. (Susan) Mrs. S. Colouette, and (Mary Ann) Mrs. A. McMullen of Toronto; (Charlotte) Mrs. George Thompson of the tenth line, Osprey and (Eliga) Mr.=!. Bullock, Colling- wood tov/nship. The floral tributes wore beautiful, among which was a pillow from the family; spray from his sister, Mrs. Thompson; spray from Mrs. Col- quctte and daughters; spray from his niece, Mrs. Van Winkle and spray from Providence Ladies' Aid. Rev. Mr. Dean conducted the fun- eral services, which was held in the Gospel Worker's church, Feversham. The remains were then conveyed to Bethel cemetery and laid to rest be- side those of his wife, who predeceas- gggtion iron harrow. ed him on February 8th, 1927. Despite the poor condition of the roads, a large number of neighbors and relatives gathered to pay their last respects^ to one beloved by all who knew him. The pallbearers were H. Moffatt, Geo. Lawlor, Fred Spoffard, George hSortt, John Poole and Fred Weldriek. His cares and troubles are now past And he has found sweet rest at last In that fair land that knows no pair We hope to clasp his hand again.
