Died at the residence of her sonâ€"inâ€" law, Mr Robt Shortreeed, on Wednes: day, 20th August, Mary McKinnon, relict af the late Neil McLachlan at the age of over fourseore years,. Mre. McLachlan was amongst the old pioneers of (Glenelg coming then to Lot No 11 Con 1, 8 D R, known as the Rob Roy, sixty one years ago. Mrs MeLachlan was the eldest o the well known MeKimnnon family of whom are living yet Allan of Darham, Hugh of 8. Line Glenelg, Mrs Adam Weir near Dorbam ard Neil of Priceâ€" sed for Flooring, other requirements ville. In reviewing the many years since| Mrs McLachlan came to the woods olt (Glenelg and endeayoring to trace up| all the eyents that transpired during | bat long period, we could find that| the came in contact with many diffiâ€" culites while passing along on life‘s ecean. _ Bometimes the frail craft would be gliding along smoothly and when the storms of adyversity would blow, them like many of her fellow mortals she would have her own trials to endure. _ But out of them all she brayely fought the battles of life till finally the call came for her to bid adieu to the world and friends. Then she could say that the race appointed she had run, the combat‘s o‘er the prize is won. When giving a backward glance we find that in the days of her youth the subject of our sketch had to be content with the conveniences of early years. The many privileges nowadays experâ€" ieneed by those in the prime of youth were denied of the poor old pioneers in the days of their activity when enâ€" terimg into the woods of the County of Grey. Mrs McLachlan was always cheerful and of a kind and friendly disposition and to her it was a delight to prepare meals at any time of the day when friends or strangers yisited herhome. During the past year or more she. was tenderly cared for by ber daughâ€" ter Annabella, Mrs. Robt. Shortreed, South Lize. She naturally would like to live at the old home but as the family were scattered in all dir ections she lived with her daughter and son Donald at Priceville but en. ded her days at Mrs Shortreed‘s. The family lhving are Mrs Sbortreed and Donald McLachlan of Priceville, VÂ¥rs Aikens and Mrs Mayer of Buffaâ€" lo, Alex, John, Augus and Lochie in Vancouver. The funeral on the 21st August to Priceville cemetery was largely atâ€" tended. She was la:d beside her husband who predeceased her some 32 years ago. â€" The Rev. Mr Fowley preached the funeral obsequies at in stock a fall line promptly done Obituary Lumber, and â€" Feed Priceville Priceville a focte . np n house and grave, the pall bearers being s1x young men, nephews ot deâ€" ceased. â€"W. G. Watson was underâ€" taker. â€" Mrs MeLachlan was a faithâ€" tui member of the Poesbyterian Ch. and in the days of her usefulness her place was never vacant there. Mr and Mre Adam Weir attended the tuneral ot the latter‘s sister on Thursday ; also Mr Allan McKinnon, brother : Mr. and Mrs. Bargess, Mr. and Mrs Smith of Durham, the two ladies being nieces ot deceased ; Mr and Mrs Mayer and Mr aad Mrs T. Aikens of Buaffalo, the latter being daughters of deceased, Mr. Nichol an1 Miss McLachlan near Darham, the latter being niece of deceased ; 3 McKinnon beys, (Neil‘s) of Toronto, nephews. Arrived too late for last week Died, at the residence of her uncle, Mr. John McQuarrie, North Line, Glenelg, on the 15th August, Miss Maimie McQuarrie, aged 23 years, after a long illness from that dreadfual disease, tuberculosis, which she conâ€". tracted some two years ago. . Bhe fought bravely for life but had to sur: render as the germ made a firm hold en her system and friends and physicâ€" ians could not save the precious young life which was wasting away day aftor day. _ The youth, the aged and middle aged, all alike, are laid side by side in the plots set ous for the dead and while wa were waiting at the graveyard at MeKechnie‘s, we took a view through the yard reading the prescriptions on the different marking places of the dead. There we could see the old veteran name who settled in over 60 years ago died in 1855, aged 78 years: the middle aged 40 and 50 years could be seen, who were laid there over 59 years ago. Then we came to the grave> cla young mother with hber infant babe by her side, who died in May, 1879, aged 19 years and 8 months, Walking on we came to the resting place of the young man, aged 22 years and then the thought strask us that Death is no respecter of persons for it takes the young girl in one homé and the young lad in another and probaSly the aged person whose death was expected years ago are yet occupying the inva lid‘s chair and may outlive the bard and healthy persons by all appear: ances for sometime to come. Miss McQuarrie was carefully atâ€" tended to by her aunt, Mrs John Mcoâ€" Qaarrie who was a mother to her since she was 8 months old and now she can raflect on the past and can be said concerming her that she, like one of old, did what she could to save this precious young life from being taken away so zoon. _ Although her young life was asked to be spared yet the author of all things saw fit to take her to fill a vacancy in the home of many mansions where the troubles of this world do cease and the weary are at rest. The faneral on Saturday, 16th inst was largely attended considering the busy season. Rev Mr Fowley who is at present taking Mr. Matheson‘s charge in the Presbyterian church, preached the funeral sermon from the words in Psalms "In time otf trouble call upon the Lord," making many appropriate remarks therefrom suitâ€" ableto the oceasion. _ The remains were taken to McKechnie‘s cemetery, Durbhem Rd..
