Deceased was Miss Elizabeth Maitland and was born in Elizabethtown, Leeds Co., in 1850. Her mother, a woman of much force of character, was a member of the well known Walker lamily. several of whom were prominent in the Methodist ministry. Deceased's only brother, Robt. R. Maitland, now ofair Columbia, was also also in the same ministry for many years but is now prominent asalawyer in Vancouver. Three sisters survive her. Mrs Thos. Cook, Markdale ; Mrs. Mc- Phee, Appin, Ont. and Mrs. Tyndall, Chicago.
