- FELL DEAD LEAVING THE CHURCH
Mr. Thomas Weatherston, of Everton,
Stricken with Hemmorrhage
SECOND SUDDEN DEATH LATELY
Just a week from the day of the funeral of Mr. Wm. G. Cook, who was found dead in bed at his home near Ospringe, Mr. Thomas Weatherston, of Everton, passed away just as suddenly.
Mr. Weatherston, had gotten into the buggy, after attending the afternoon service in Ospringe Presbyterian Church on Sunday, and without any apparent struggle, he grew limp in the seat and died.
The incident caused much consternation, among those coming from the Church. Deceased had seemed in his usual good health that day, and had attended the McLelland inquest at Everton the night before, where he had conversed with many of his friends.
Dr. McCullough, of Rockwood, was soon on the scene, and the body, which had been taken into a nearby house, was removed by a son to the family residence at Everton.
The late Mr. Weatherstone was 71 years of age, and though of robust health in a general way, had suffered from heart trouble for some time.
The doctor pronounced death as due to a heart hemorrhage.
The deceased, who was known and highly esteemed in the neighborhood, leaves surviving his three sons and four daughters. They are John in the West, Thomas and George in Eramosa; Mrs. McCutcheon, of Everton; Mrs. Hamilton, of Shiloh; Mrs. Blair and Mrs. Dalton, of Dalton, Manitoba. - Featured Link
