Vollet, Hun ing leached the great age of 90 years and 3 months. ,in the year 1855, but moved away ;later and resided in Stratford for :some 15 years. About 17 years Iago, the old couple, whose famâ€" ily at that time had all married ‘or died, came again to live in Durham, They made their home .with their son, W. B. Vollet. and _ latter some four years, in 1890, the’ 'old gentleman died. One son. J amee Henry, died nine years ago. . Two daughters, Margaret Eliza- ' beth, Mrs. Wm. Jackson, and Min- -"'nie, Mrs. Samnel McCrea, are also 1 dead. Two sons, W. B. Vollet. . town clerk of Durham, and John ),Vollet, who lives in Sarnia, still The late Mrs. Vollet, whose maiden name was Mary Anne Belcher, was born in Sydenham, now called Dixie, near Toronto, in 1822. When about 18. years of age, she married James Vollet. They first settled in Durham in The late Mrs. Vollet was a woman of sterling Christian char- acter and amiable disposition. She retained in a remarkable de- gree, the poaeaaiog of her tactil- . 235‘“. of the slight cold, and sank rapidly, nOI- withstanding the beat of loving care and attention. The funeral took place on Thursday afternoon, the interment being in Trinity cemetery, where also lie the re- ‘mains of her husband and two daughters. The. bereaved have the sympathy of the community. | On Thursday of 'last week, onel iof Glenelg’s pioneers in the person ‘of Moses Melosh, passed away at :his home near Dornoch at the ad- "vanced age of 75 or 80 years. At :the time of writing, we are un- lable to learn the place of his "birth, but he came to Durham ’about 55 years ago, and worked 'for a number of years at his trade as a carpenter, and he .prove-d himself a first-class me- :chaniE. He also spent much of lhis time in making fanning mills 'and household furniture. He was married to a daughter of the late Nicholas Haley, of Glenelg, but she died a number of years ago. Three sons and one daughter survive, as follows: Thomas and Nicholas, of Glenelg; John Joseph, of Toronto; and Mrs. Martin ("offield, on a farm near the old homestead, Mr. Melosh was highly regarded for his sterling qualities, genial diSposition and unalloyed hon- esty. He was a man whose 'WOl‘d could always be taken at its face value. He was industrious in his habits, and met with a fair meas- ure of success. The remains were interred on Saturday last in theeRoman Cath- olic cemetery at Dornoch. On Saturday, Mr. Terry Finne- gan, a resident of the town and vicinity for many years, passed peacefully away, after a some- what lingering illness.
