"‘h: remains of 511'. John Jones, who .1 ed at his home at Merritton on ind-u last were brought here on Saturdav evening to the home of his son in law Mr. Chas. Bellamy. from whexe the funeral took place to the Publir cemetery on Sunday afternoon, Rev. Iyison Wilson officiating at the house and graveside. Mr. Jones was a resident of Flesherton in the days of its infancy, and was for a number of years a prominent figure in the bmimss life of the place. The firm. tannery that existed here was oper- ated by him. He also for several years conducted the then well known B03111 Water llomel, and subsequently engaged in general business. Later. Mr. Jones moved to the old ashery near the station where, for some time he engaged in the manufacture of black salts. etc. Since leaving here he has lived at Owen Sound, Titerton and Merritton, where he was engaged in the grocery business. Deceased was 7?.» years of age, and is survived by his very highly respected widow. one daughter, Bertha. at. home, and one son, James. of Owen Sound, all of whom attended the obsequies. The widow and executors of the late Hugh McPherson, who lived near Fleshercon Station. have been {or some time in the courts defending the estate against a‘clulm made by a sister of the. deceased. . The Owen Sound Times of Thursday last. report- ed the issue as follows: " His Honor Judge Morrison handed out his decis~ ion this morning in the matter 01 the McPherson estate. Respecting' the claim of Mrs. Blunden, of Chicago, a. sister of deceased, for $2,700, the judge said that he believed the note to be a forgery from a signature at- tnched to a letter in the possessmn wâ€"vw - of the claimant. This contention was supported by expert evidence, though it must be said in fairness to the claimant that Thos. Bengongh. court stenographer, and a recognized eXpert on handwriting, held the sig- nature to be genuine. Of claims amounting to almost 35,000, only $64.64 was dlowed, the widof’s right to almost the entire estate being thus recomxized.” .
