The deceased, who was 76 years of age, was born at Paris, Ont., and came to Glenelg immed- iately after her marriage about 55 years ago. Her maiden name was liaiherine Doyle; The late Mrs. Heughan was born in West Zorra in 1861, and was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Kenny. Forty-three years ago she was married in Walkerton to Mr. Heughan, where they resided for some years. About twenty-ï¬ve vears «ago they came to Glenelg and lived for a couple of years at Mord- cn's Corners north of town. For a time they lived in Bentinck, near .Mulock. and also resided in Hanover until twelve years ago when they moved to Durham and have since continually resided here. The de- ceased was a woman most highly regarded, was a member of hnox church. and her death is the cause of much regret. After -an illness of nearly two years, Mrs. James A. Heu han passed away Tuesday noon in r- ham Hospital, following an opera- tion performed on Monday. Mrs. Heughan was a sufl'erer from an affliction of the gall-bladder, and while ill for nearly two years, it was not until six weeks ago that the {trouble became serious. Four weeks ago she was taken to the hospitai, but made little improvement and an operation was performed as a last resort. At her advanced age of 67 years, it was from the ï¬rst known that her chances oi: recovery were slight and her passmg on Tuesday, while a great shock to her family and the citizens, was not altoge- th_e_r unexpected. __ At time oftwritin’g no information has been received as to when the funeral is to be held, other than that interment will be made in Toledo. Iiam, in Durham, Robert in Detroit, and James, who also lives in the States but whose present. address is not known. HRS. nuns HEDGE†MRS. PETER O’NEIL ___ ‘â€"â€" v..â€" ded over by C. H.
