After an illness dating back '0ver a period of two or three years, Mr. James Ritohie, an old resident of Glenelg Township, passed awa at the residence of his son, Mr. rt Ritchie, three miles north of town, early last Thursday mornin . The immediate cause of deat was heart trouble. Th late Mr. Ritchie," who was 74 years of age, was a life-long resid- ent of this vicinity, and'with the exception of a couple of ‘trips to the West, had never lived out of the township of his birth. He was born on the. Ritchie farm on which No. 9 schoolhouse was built, and was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John Ritchie. His father dying when he was a lad of eight years of age, the sub- ject of this sketch, after growing to young manhood, learned the trades of carpenter, bricklayer and stonemason, and for many years worked through the townships and in Durham, being engaged on many of the town’s buildings. He plied his trade mostly in the townships and before concrete became so well known was largely engaged in the erection of barn and house foundations, as well 'as in laying brick and carpenter work. He continued his trade up to about 51x years ago when failing health com- pelled him to retire.

Surviving are three sons: Bert and Murray, living on’ the Provincial Highway north of town, the former in tilenelg and the latter in Bentinck. and Fred, of Craik, Sash, who has been in the West for 20 years. but who arrived here the (lay previous to his father’s death. A sad part. of his return home is that though he arrived be- fore -_ his father passed away, he had spent the afternoon with his brother, Murray, and his parent. passed away unexpectedly during the early, morning and before he had seen him. lA“\ Q Vvv-g â€"___ “e sxmpathize “ith the mem- bins of the familv in their be- reavement. Mr. S. P. Saunders, for the past 55 years a prominent business man and citizen of the town. died sud-; denly while at his (iInner on Thursday last. and his remains were interred in Durham cemetery last Saturday afternoon beside those of his wife. who passed away 30 years age. The late Mr. qaunders had been engaged in the harnessâ€"making iimsinnss here for practically the whole of his life and was one of the best-known citizens of the town. and while it was known he had had a stroke two or three months ago. his sudden passing was a shock to his friends and ifamily. - l h! _ Mr. Saunders was born at Plyâ€" month. Wales. 73 years ago. When l-i years of ace he came with his parents and other members of the family to Canada. settling first at Chatham. then moving to Wil- liamst‘ord. and later the deceased moved to Durham to learn his trade as harnessmaker with the late George Isaac. subsequently‘ appointed bailiff. It. was in the early 70’s that Mr. Saunders came here and with the exception of a few months spent in Owen Sound. .Paisley and other nearby towns. 1his whole life may be said to have been lived here. For a num- ber of years he was employed by the late Thomas Smith as harness- maker. but. in about 1881 01‘133‘3 went. into business for himself. which he continued up to two or three monthskago. fl ‘ ‘â€" -‘_--A’) and for two years was Reeve. Dur- ing his terms of ofiice he gave good service. and election day generally saw him returned as a member of the board. He had not been in municipal life for some years preceding his death. but always took an interest in the town’s af- fairs. Three months ago he was taken with a paralytic stroke, but recovered sufficiently to be able: to go to the home of his daughter. Mrs. R. G. Lindsay at Brantford. iwhere he remained up to three weeks ago when he returned to town. making his headquarters at the Hahn House. Previous to leavâ€" ing for Brantford he had disposed of his mail route to Mr. Philip Lawrence. and was, we understand. making preparations to dispose of his shop equipment and real estate when the; end came. ‘ ‘â€" A _A- “A- "My“ â€"v wâ€"â€" _ About 47 years ago he ried to Miss @132an JAMES RITCHIE S. P. SAUNDERS Miss Edith M. Trent, who has spent the past 34 .years as mission- ary in Tokio, Japan,. under the auspices of the women’s auxiliary of the Church of England in Can- ada, is enjoying a year’s furlough in Canada. Miss Trent went to Japan in 1894. She is shown at at Camp Borden during the war,‘ when training with the Air Force for overseas service. With the exception of Mrs. Lindsay, illein the hospital at Brantford. and at whose home the deceased. had been living before Visiting here. all the members of the family were present at the funeral last Saturâ€" day afternoon. The funeral ser- vice. was held at the home of his sister-in-law, Mrs. Thomas Saund» ers, Queen street, in charge of the Rev. W. H. Smith of Knox linitei‘l church. anrl was quite largely attended by old Durham friends and former husiness asso- ciates who could make it possible to be present on this day. We sympathize with the. family in the sudden passing of their parent. Though not possibly known by the majority of the residents except those of mature years, the deceased in his younger days was one of the outstanding entertainers of the community. was possessed of very fine Vocal talents and his services at different functions were often sought. The Baptist Women’s Mission Circle met at the home of Mrs. J. F. Giles on Wednesday. July 4. The president. Mrs. Knisley was in the chair. The meeting opened by singing a hymn followed with prayer by the president. The min- utes of the last meeting were read and adopted and the members res- ponded to the roll call with a fa- vorite verse of Scripture. Another hymn followed “Only Trusb‘Him". A splendid topic on “Our New Can-t adians” was given by Mrs. S. F. McComb. also a very interesting reading by Mrs. W". Thompson en- titled “Mrs. Crofts’ Missionary F lowers". Miss Eva Redford and Mrs. W. Thompson rendered a pleasing. duet. followed by another hymn. "‘I love to tell the story". Mrs. Rev. Spencer who attended The Baptist World Alliance in Toronto. ’gave an interesting and instructive report. Meeting closed with prayer by Miss Moti‘et. Re- freshments were served and a soc- ial half hour followed. Chronicle Advertising Pays! Try it... Goldsmithâ€"In Bentinck. on July 7.1928. to Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Goldsmith. a son.
