Hagerman, Abraham |
The death of Abe Hagerman, who passed
away at the Belleville General Hospital on Saturday, October 31st,
has occasioned deep regret among those who knew him. Mr. Hagerman was seriously injured at the
Trenton Airport when he was hit by flying debris caused by the cyclone and he
received severe injuries to the head. The late Mr. Hagerman was born at
Bath, the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Hagerman who reside on a farm
which was deeded to them from the Government.
Going to Oshawa, 13 years ago, Mr. Hagerman was employed on the trim
and hardware line of General Motors.
While there he was a member of Cedardale United Church and a member of
the choir. He was also a member of the
Independent Order of Forresters and of the Orange Order. He had a host of friends and a number of
relatives in and around the city. Mr. and
Mrs. Hagerman and son Roy moved to Trenton a year ago and he had been
employed at the airport ever since. He
was a member of Bayside Church, Trenton and a member of the choir there. Mrs. Hagerman was at the church the
Thursday afternoon when she received word of her husband’s accident. Besides the bereaved wife, who was
formerly Miss Jennie Pinney, daughter of Mrs. Ross Pinney and the late
William Pinney, Sharps Corners, he leaves to mourn his loss, one son, Roy;
his parents; five brothers, Edward of
Toronto, Leonard of Oshawa, Alexander, Mountain Grove, John, Bath, Borden,
Bath; two sisters, Mrs. Pearl Kitchen,
Huntsville, Lorraine, Bath. The funeral was held from the family
residence, 1st Concession, Sidney Township on Tuesday, November 3rd
with service at the house at 1 p.m. to Selby United church for service at 3
p.m. Rev. James Plant of Bayside
assisted by Dr. Smith conducted the service and the choir from Bayside
contributed a couple of anthems. Rev.
M. Plant delivered a very comforting message from the text “Blessed is that
servant whom, when his Lord cometh, shall find watching,” and paid a high
tribute to the life and character of the deceased. He also read letters of sympathy received
by the family from former pastors, Rev. Mr. McDermid of Cedardale Church,
Oshawa, and Rev. T. H. P. Anderson. At the conclusion of the service,
which was one of the largest in the point of attendance held in the church
for a number of years, the funeral cortege motored to the cemetery at Camden
V. where interment was made. The floral tributes were beautiful and were
carried into the church by eight of Roy’s school friends. IN LOVING MEMORY - In loving memory
of my dear husband, Abraham a. Hagerman, who passed away on October 31st,
1936 from injuries received by the tornado at the Trenton Airport……Wife and
Son, Roy. |

HAIGHT – At Toronto on Tuesday, 25th
June, at the residence of his son, Mr. Canniff Haight, a native of
Adolphustown, aged 76 years. OBITUARY – MR. CANNIFF HAIGHT – A
native of Adolphustown, and for many years a prominent citizen of Picton, and

residence of his son, Mr. W. R. Haight, Toronto, aged 76 years. He married Miss Jane Ingersoll, daughter of
the late Isaac Ingersoll, of the front of Fredericksburgh, who survives him
with four sons. He was a man of more
than ordinary intelligence and of extensive reading and travel. He was the author of two quite popular books.
His “Canadian Life of Fifty Years ago”, gives some very interesting sketches
of habits and customs, especially of the people of this county during the
first half of this century. He was of
U.E. L. stock and was much interested in the early history and traditions of
the pioneers of this province. One of
his last duties performed was to spend some weeks, a year ago, among the
archives at Washington, copying and arranging a number of valuable
manuscripts of the correspondence and claims of the first Loyalists, which
will soon be published by the Historical Society. Canniff Haight, who died June 25th
1901, was the son of Shadrick Ricketson Haight, (son of Daniel Haight,
U.E.L., who settled in Adolphustown) and his wife Mary, daughter of James
Canniff U.E.L. He was born 4th June, 1825. Resided in Picton, County of Prince
Edward, and subsequently in Toronto; was a journalist, and author
("Country Life in Canada Fifty Years Ago;" "A genealogy of the
Haight family," etc.; transcribed with is own hand the MS. Reports of
the Commissioners on U.E.L. Claims which were lost for many years, and are
now in the Congressional Library at Washington, a work in which he was
engaged from some months under the direction of Mr. James Bain, Public
Librarian, Toronto, and with the assistance of this Association. He married,
23rd June, 1852, Jane Casey, daughter of Isaac Ingersoll, of Fredericksburgh,
and granddaughter of Willet Casey, M.L.A., and had issue.

Haight, in her 87th year. Funeral private on Saturday from the
residence of her son, W. H. Haight, 669 Huron Street. DEATH OF WIDOW OF LATE CANNIFF HAIGHT
- WELL KNOWN WRITER ON PIONEER LIFE RECALLED - IN HER 87TH YEAR -- Death came
yesterday to Mrs. Canniff Haight, in her eighty-seventh year, at Lyndhurst
Hospital, after a comparatively short illness, although she had been somewhat
infirm on account of advanced age for some time. The passing of Mrs. Haight
recalled the work of her talented husband who perhaps did more to visualize
Canadian pioneer life in Ontario than any other single contributor to
Canadian literature. His work "Country Life in Canada Fifty Years
Ago", written in 1885 and "Here and There in the Home Land -
England, Scotland and Ireland - as Seen By a Canadian", written in 1895,
are to be found in nearly every Canadian public library. The late Mrs.
Haight, like her husband, was a descendant of UE Loyalist stock and was born
at Adolphustown, Lennox County in 1826. Although she had lived in Toronto
since 1872, many years of her life were spent in Picton, Ont. She married Mr.
Haight in Fredericksburgh in 1852 and is survived by four sons, Messrs. W.R.
Haight, Toronto; H. H. Haight, Scranton Penn, USA; W. L. Haight, Crown
Attorney at Parry Sound and C. P. Haight of Toronto. The interment, which
will be private, takes place in St. James Cemetery on Saturday from the
residence of her son, Mr. W.R. Haight, Huron Street. |

Pte. J. A. Haines - Pts. Bert Haines
was born in Camden Ontario September 25th 1895 and died on the
field of Flanders January 5th 1917. Pte Haines was of a kind and loving
disposition always willing to lend a helping hand and was well liked by young
and old of the neighborhood of Anderson, where he lived for the past fifteen
years. A letter from the Lieut. of his
Battalion, M. B. Thornhill, says of him, “That he was unassuming, quiet,
always calm and collected while under fire.”
Bert was one of the brave boys, who thought that liberty and freedom
were better than life under Prussian rule.
He therefore voluntarily left his father’s home and went to a foreign
land to do his bit for King and Country.
A memorial service was held last
Sunday in Anderson Church. The church
was crowded with sympathizing friends and the address given by his Pastor,
Rev. W. S. Boyes, B. A., was full of sympathy and patriotism. It was a masterly address from the text
“Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for
another.” He threw his living breast to stem
the German tide. This volunteer from Canada he fought
as veteran tried. He met the boast of William’s host He met them hand to hand. This volunteer of Canada, this boy
from our land. When men come back from war’s grim
track And silent is the gun I’ll look with pride on him that died And say he was my son. |

Hales, William |
WILLIAM HALES (Kingston) - Was born
in Kingston, and on the 19th of last November reached the age of
forty-nine. After lingering for six
weeks with a tumor on the brain, sometimes conscious and sometimes
unconscious, and often in great agony of pain, he slept in the arms of his Redeemer
on Saturday, Dec. 18th, 1886;
and having spent many Sabbaths of delight in the Church upon earth, he
went to spend the following Sabbath with the “Church triumphant,” in that “building of God,” that “house not made with hands, eternal in
the heavens.” All through his
affliction his faith in Christ was firm and his hope was bright. One morning, when so far gone that he spoke
with great difficulty, he asked for water, and when his dry lips, parched
tongue and languid body were refreshed, his eye brightened, and he said,
“That reminds me of the streams which make glad . . . “ He was evidently thinking of the “river the
streams whereof shall make glad the City of God.” An unusually large number of friends,
including the Society of the Ancient Order of United Workmen, attended the
funeral, and the memorial service held about two weeks afterwards in the
church. The discourse of his pastor on
the last-named occasion was based on Amos v. 8. The central idea set forth in the discourse
being that the shadow of death will be turned for the Christian into the
morning of heavenly day. Bro. Hales
had lived nearly twenty-two years of happy married life; and besides his faithful, affectionate
companion, leaves two daughters and a son, nearly grown to maturity and much
respected. Ever after God took away his dear little boy, six
years of age, his mind was seriously turned toward the “sweet by-and-bye,”
when he expected to see the budding rose-bush which had been plucked from his
side on earth blooming in full angelic splendor in the gardens of
heaven. Before his conversion, which
occurred about eleven years ago, under the ministry of Rev. Mr. Porter, he
was exceedingly lively; and after his conversion became a lively Christian -
a “lively stone” in God’s spiritual house.
In Kingston Fourth Church our departed brother took an intense
interest, being a member of the Quarterly Board, an efficient class-leader,
and for some time society steward. The
Board of the church passed a tender resolution of condolence to his family,
and appreciative of his usefulness, as well as deploring his death as a
personal bereavement. He was a
soul-winner, faithful at the family altar, and a willing worker in the
church, while a happy cheerfulness pervaded his life. It was truly touching to see little
children who had plucked his garments and shared his smile upon the street,
come and weep to notice the face of their merry friend so fixed and solemn. They sorrowed most of all, knowing that
they should see his face no more.
Almost every person loved him, because he loved them. [signed]

The Late Mrs. Hall We are called upon to record the
death of Mrs. Wm. Hall, mother of Mr. W.F. Hall, secretary of the Napanee
Mills Paper Co., which event took place on Tuesday last. The deceased lady
was born in the year 1804 in South Fredericksburgh, and came of good old U.E.
Loyalist stock. Her maiden name was Mary Diamond, and her family is noted for
its longevity of life. She was the youngest of a family of six, two of which
are still living in Belleville, William and John Diamond, aged respectively
85 and 90 years. She removed to Richmond in 1842, and was united in marriage
with Wm. Hall, and became the mother of seven children, three sons and four
daughters, all living. Mrs. H. was a
life-long Methodist. Her last illness was of only a week's duration. A large
procession followed the remains to the Napanee Cemetery, Rev. D. Conolly
performing the burial services.

Hall, Sarah Eliza (nee Smith) |
The Late Mrs. W.F. Hall One of Napanee's oldest and best
known residents passed away Monday afternoon, when Mrs. W.F. Hall died at her
home on the Newburgh Road. Mrs. Hall had reached the advanced
age nearly eighty-nine. For the past few years she had been practically
confined to her home, but had retained, in a remarkable way, the use of her
faculties, a fine mental alertness and a keen interest in all that was going
on. Her last illness was of brief duration and she passed quietly away after
a long and useful life. Before her marriage, Mrs. Hall was
Sarah Eliza Smith. She was one of four daughters of the late Geo. I. Smith
and his wife, Mary Ann Huyck, all of whom have now passed on. She was born in
North Fredericksburgh Township and removed to Napanee with her parents when
they retired, over sixty years ago. Shortly after coming to Napanee, she
married the late W.F. Hall, who at that time was secretary-treasurer of the
Paper Company at Napanee Mills, now Strathcona. Later, Mr. Hall conducted an
insurance business in Napanee, and was interested in other enterprises. Mr.
Hall died about eleven years ago. The association of the late Mr. and
Mrs. Hall with Trinity United church was one of long and honorable standing.
Their life history was closely connected with the life history of the church
during more than half a century. For many years, Mr. Hall was recording
steward of the old Eastern Methodist Church, which later became Trinity
United Church. For twenty-one years, Mrs. Hall was president of the Ladies'
Aid a position from which she retired only eleven years ago. Their service
was given in unstinted measure and was typical of service of a large group of
similarly minded people, who made the building of the present church a
possibility. Mrs. Hall is survived by four
daughters and one son; Mrs. Myers of Toronto, Miss Florence, at home, Mrs.
Madden, the wife of Judge J. E. Madden, Napanee, Mrs. Challies, wife of the
Hon, G.H. Challies, and Mr. Ernest, of Winnipeg, general storekeeper of the
western lines of the Canadian Pacific Railway. The funeral service is being
conducted at the home on Thursday afternoon, with Rev. Harry Pawson, minister
of Trinity United Church, in charge. |

Died - At his residence, Willow Glen,
Ernestown, on Saturday evening, the 9th of November, after a most severe and
painful illness, Benjamin Ham, Esq., aged 65 years. Benjamin Ham was the seventh son (the
last of eight brothers) of John Ham, a U.E. Loyalist, who came to Canada from
the Hudson river in the year 1780 and took possession of the estate lately
occupied by the deceased. The family were originally German, the ancestors
having emigrated to America from Hanover, Germany, and Mr. Ham always prided
himself upon his German descent. Besides being deeply mourned by a wife and
family, to whom he was fondly attached, Mr. Ham's loss is keenly felt in the
neighborhood where he lived, and looked upon by the community as a public
calamity. As a devoted husband and kind, indulgent father, a christian
gentleman and obliging neighbor, his loss will be felt more and more. He was
a member of the Lutheran Church, but always gave liberally to all
denominations. In politics, Mr. Ham belonged to the old school of Reformers,
and always adhered to his principles with the most rigid independence,
forgetting self, and striving with genuine sincerity to benefit his country
and fellow man. Upright and honourable he always was, and of such strict
integrity that it became a favorite saying of his friends and neighbors, that
his word was as good as his bond. His disease was of the heart and his
suffering heart rending to behold, but he relied upon the Saviour of all who
will, and his prayer to the very last moment was "Lord, come
quickly." He has gone to his rest, leaving no earthly doubt but that a
crown of glory awaited him in Heaven.

Kingston Hospital - Attended County Council From South Fred. For Nearly 4
years - With the death of Frank N. Ham of
Conway in Kingston General Hospital on Saturday, April 19th, the Township of
South Fredericksburgh and the County of Lennox and Addington lost one of its
most progressive citizens. Mr. Ham who was only 49 years of age
suffered an attack of coronary thrombosis in 1949. He was in the Hospital for
some time, but appeared to have made a good recovery. Some weeks ago he
returned to the hospital for a check-up and treatment and just before he was
scheduled to return home had to undergo a rather serious operation. He was
reported to be making satisfactory progress until he suffered a heart attack
and passed away. Mr. Ham was born at Conway and was
the only son of Mr. and Mrs. George T. Ham. His father's family have been
identified with the public life of the Township for several generations. His
grandfather Ira Ham was Reeve of the Township of South Fredericksburgh in
1873. His father George T. Ham was clerk of the Township for 29 years. Frank
Ham was Reeve of South Fredericksburgh from 1944 to 1949. During his last
year as Reeve he became ill and had to give up public life. During the time
he was a member of the county Council he served on several important
committees and had considerable to do with the formation of the county Health
Unit, on the Board of which he acted for a few years. Many farm organizations
in the county received his active support as well as St. Paul's Anglican
Church at Sandhurst, of which he was a member. Mr. Ham is survived by his wife,
formerly Elizabeth Crews, by two children, Katherine and Thomas, by his
parents, Mr. and Mrs. George T. Ham and four sisters, Mrs. Maurice Young,
Sandhurst, Mrs. H. C. Hunter, Kingston and Mrs. Mary Smith of Denver, Colorado
and Miss Margaret Ham, Toronto. His funeral was conducted by Rev.
Henry Hill, at St. Paul's Anglican Church, Sandhurst, on Tuesday afternoon
and interment followed in St. Paul's Cemetery. Attending the funeral were many
friends from the County. County Council members and County officials. Tribute to Frank Ham - to the Editor
- One of those periods of sorrow and
gloom which periodically visit all communities, this week fell on the Ham
family, Conway. The death of Frank Ham is a deep loss to the whole
neighborhood. Frank Ham, son of Mr. and Mrs. George
Ham, died in Kingston General Hospital, Saturday, April 19th. His body was
returned to his home to-day (Sunday) and the funeral will take place at St.
Paul's Church, Sandhurst, April 22nd at 2:30 p.m. He had been in ill-health for some time but
faced all in great hopefulness. Frank, as everyone knew him, was what
we might term a mutation in our community. His nature refused to be fettered
by the past. His methods cut across old custom and established practice. He
pioneered new methods. Machinery fascinated him and he employed it beyond any
previously established practice in our neighborhood. He studied crops and
soils and fertility and drainage and rations. Any problem was a challenge and
he sought the answer. What seemed the impossible to many was a spur to him
and he sought to prove its practicability. Defeatism and surrender, when an
undertaking went foul and unforeseen difficulties arose, was not in his
nature. Frank was essentially a man of the
community. He was a member of the Anglican church, a leading Mason and gave
much time and effort to Agricultural organization. He was also Reeve of our
Township for several years. To the public and in our
neighbourhood, his greatest attribute was perhaps Friendliness. He possessed
a magnetism that compelled respect even in disagreement. A neighbour he was
to all - a Good Samaritan. If it is better to have loved and
lost than to have never loved, Frank had loved. he was not permitted to carry
out and on to maturity of years. Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Ham, his parents,
and his wife and daughter and son, survive him. To these we wish to extend
our deepest sympathy. A NEIGHBOUR |

Ham - At South Fredericksburgh, March
14th, 1899, George Ham, aged 86 years, 10 months and 26 days. GEORGE HAM ESQ. - one of the oldest
and most respected residents of South Fredericksburgh, died at his residence,
Conway P.O. on Tuesday, 14th
inst., after a long and painful illness which continued over a year.
Mr. Ham was a life long resident of this county, a descendant of one of the
U.E.L. pioneers, who came up the Bay of Quinte in 1784, and settled in what
was then an unbroken wilderness in the vicinity of Hamburgh. Deceased was a
son of Mr. John Ham, a prominent resident of the township, both in Christian
work and business affairs. He was in the eighty-seventh year of his age. He
was married fifty-nine years ago to Miss Pruyn, a sister of the late Sheriff
Pruyn, of this county, who survives him with their four children, Wm.
Thatford Ham, Esq., who lives a few lots west of the old homestead, Mrs.
Price., of Moorhead Minn, Mrs. Ross of Napanee, and Miss Jennie Ham, residing
at home. Mr. and Mrs. Ham soon after their marriage settled on their newly
acquired farm, at Conway, where they have always since lived and became the
oldest residents of the locality. He was a man of intelligence and ability
and of much influence in his day. It is said he was Sir Richard Cartwright's
choice for sheriff when this County was first divided from Frontenac. In
politics he was a staunch Conservative and used to claim he never gave a vote
to any other party in his life. He was a consistent member of the Church of
England and knew intimately every minister who has ever labored in that
parish. He was for many years and until the time of his death Postmaster at
Conway. By his industry and excellent business ability he became a man of
considerable wealth. Mrs. Solomon Wright and Mrs. Byard Detlor are sisters
and our townsman, Zina Ham and Mr. John Ham of Albany N. Y. are surviving
brothers. We have to record the death of
another of the pioneer settlers of South Fredericksburgh. George Ham passing
over to the great majority on Wednesday last. Deceased was eighty-seven years
of age and had lived all his long life in the township of Fredericksburgh. He
was also of old united empire loyalist stock and connected with many of the
leading families in this section, his wife being a sister of the late sheriff
Pruyn, of Napanee, who with a family of four survive. They are: Mrs. Price,
Mrs. Ross and Miss Jennie, at home and one son, Thatford, a farmer in South
Fredericksburgh. Two brothers and two sisters also survive. They are Zina,
Napanee; John, Albany, N.Y.; Mrs. Solomon Wright and Mrs. Byard Detlor, both
living in South Fredericksburgh. Deceased was one of the most intelligent men
of his day and a thrifty and prosperous farmer. He was postmaster at Conway
for a number of years and held the position at the time of his death. He was
a staunch conservative and a consistent member of the English church. Deceased
had been ailing for about a year and his death was due to cancer of the
stomach. The funeral took place yesterday.

Death of Ira Ham We regret to learn that Ira Ham,
Esq., for many years the Reeve of South Fredericksburgh, died at his
residence, Hamburg, on Thursday, after a very long and painful sickness of
cancer. He has been troubled with a cancer on
his temple for over two years, and for more than a year past it has been
evident that, in the end, it must prove fatal. Mr. Ham was a gentleman much
respected and popular in his native township, and for years was a leading
spirit in the Conservative party in the municipality. He was at one time
Warden of Lennox and Addington, and in the County Council he had much
influence. He occupied a seat in the County Council for eight or ten years,
until January, '80, when his health had become so feeble as to make it
necessary for him to retire from public life. |

Ham, John D. |
Sudden Death - One of the most sudden
and unexpected deaths that has occurred in Napanee for years, was that of
John D. Ham, last evening. For some time past his friends have observed that
he was falling rapidly, but no one had the slightest idea that his end was so
near at hand. About seven o'clock in the evening, in company with his niece,
Miss Hooper, he went for a short walk, and when near the residence of Mrs.
Ross on Centre street, he was taken with a faint spell. He was immediately
taken into Mrs. Ross and Dr. Grant sent for, who, with Dr. Ruttan, did all in
their power to restore him, but to no avail, and he passed peacefully away. Deceased was in his seventy-third
year, and for the past half a century was one of the most prominent men in
our county, occupying the highest positions in the county council and school
board. Deceased leaves a faithful and sorrowing wife, who has been a partner
of his joys and sorrows and had much to do with his eminently successful
business career. Their only son died some years ago, and at Mr. Ham's request
he will probably be laid at his side in the family plot at Newburgh on Monday
next. The Late John D. Ham (Napanee
Express) The late John D. Ham, who passed away
so suddenly on Thursday, last week, was considered one of the best business
men in Lennox and Addington. He was a very prominent man in the county,
having occupied high positions in the county council and school board.
Deceased was born in Bath, on 27th March, 1823. In 1843 he moved to Newburgh,
where he went into the employ of Lasher & Stevenson, serving but a short
time before he was taken into partnership, the name of the firm being changed
to lasher, Stevenson & Ham. Mr. Lasher shortly afterwards retired. In
1855, Mr. Ham and the late Hon. John Stevenson dissolved partnership. Mr.
Ham, however, continued in the mercantile business until 1868. He was always
a prominent conservative in politics and had on different occasions been
proposed as a candidate for M.P., but had refused. Deceased leaves a
sorrowing wife and a daughter, Mrs. Dr. Vrooman, Yarker. Their only son died
in 1858. The will of deceased was opened on Tuesday last. Mrs. Ham and
daughter are left amply provided for, while a number of friends are also
remembered. The executors are Messrs. James Haydon, Camden Eat and Harvey
Warner, Napanee.

Representative in Ontario House Charles W. Hambly, for many years
prominent in the business and political life of Napanee and the surrounding
county, and a former member of the Ontario Legislature, representing Lennox
County, died at the Kingston General Hospital on Thursday, November 12th, in
his 82nd year. The late Mr. Hambly had been in failing health for the past
two years and about six weeks ago he was removed to the Hospital for
treatment, when his condition became serious. Mr. Hambly was born in North
Fredericksburgh and was a son of the late William and Catherine Hambly. His
father came from England as a young man and his mother was a native of the
county. All his life was spent on the farm in North Fredericksburgh until 1913,
when he moved to Napanee where he had since resided. Before coming to Napanee, Mr. Hambly
was a member of North Fredericksburgh Township Council for many years and was
reeve of the township and warden of the County of Lennox and Addington in

the congregation of St. Mary Magdalene's Anglican Church. After leaving the farm and coming to

Hambly, George |
The many friends of George Hambly, a
well-known and progressive Richmond farmer, will much regret to learn of his
death, which took place at Denver, Colorado, on Sunday last, aged about
thirty-three years. He was a son of Samuel Hambly, of South Napanee, and has
been all his lifetime a resident of this locality. For the last few years he
has been associated with his brother, John in hog and live stock dealing, and
was well known throughout the county. Some months ago he took sick, of
consumption, and spent some time at the sanitarium, at Gravenhurst, but
received no benefits. He was next prevailed upon to go to Denver, hoping to
receive benefit from the change of climate there. Last week his friends
received encouraging letters from him. On Saturday, however, a telegram came
stating that he was much worse and his brother John at once started to him.
On Monday the sad tidings came of his death, which must have occurred before
his brother could reach there. It is probable that the body will be brought
back to Napanee as soon as possible for burial. He was married to Miss Edna
Brandon, daughter of William Brandon, of the Selby road, who survives him,
with one son, but fourteen months old.

Hannah, Elizabeth |
ELIZABETH McDONALD - Beloved wife of
John Hannah, was born in Glengarry, May 17th, 1819, and departed this
life in her quiet home near Mississippi Station, March 28th,
1886. Our departed sister was united
in marriage to Mr. John Hannah, March 14th, 1845, and about two
years after moved to their present residence, and for over 41 years shared
life’s joys and sorrow. It seemed sad
to separate them even for a short time.
They had eight daughters and three sons. One son has gone to rest, and
ten affectionate children and a loving husband mourn the departed, but do not
mourn as those without hope. “Tis God
who has bereft them, and he can all their sorrows heat.” All are members of our church except two,
and in her dying moments that dear son out of Christ was in her mind, and the
hope that he would be led to Christ and meet her in heaven, in her
heart. It was not possible for three
daughters in the west to be present.
Daniel, however, who was absent on the “survey of the Brockville and
Westport Railroad,” returned in time for the funeral. May the whole family appear on the “right
hand” as they meet before the throne.
Her disposition was not impulsive, but rather retiring, and she was
calm amidst the greatest suffering.
She calmly fell asleep in Jesus with a pleasing smile upon her
countenance. At eventide there was
truly light. [signed] N. B. Topping. |

eighty-nine years.
Funeral of the Aged Minister The funeral of the late Rev. R.
Harding took place at the church of St. Alban the Martyr, Adolphustown.
Before leaving Napanee a memorial service was held in St. Mary Magdalene
Church. Clergy served as pallbearers, the casket being borne by old friends of
deceased. The holy communion was celebrated by Rural Dean Baker, and Rev.
F.D. Woodcock acting as gospeller and epistoler respectively. During the
service the body rested in the choir, the clergy watching on either side. At Adolphustown, the Rev. R.S.
Forneri, rector, and several other clergymen received the funeral procession,
which was augmented by a large number of Mr. Harding's old parishioners. The
service in the church was very impressive. At Mr. Harding's own request no
word of eulogy or funeral address marred the grand simplicity of the Anglican
rite, the only departure from the regular form being the insertion of the
prayer for the "church millitant" in commemoration of the faithful
departed. At the grave the prayers were said by the rector and Rev. A.

OBITUARY - Mrs. Peter Hart Mrs. Peter Hart, a resident of
Roblin, passed away at Kingston General Hospital, on Saturday, October 24th,
where she had been taken one week ago.
On October 4th a little son was born to their home. Everything was favourable at first for a
quick recovery, when complications arose, and her condition became serious
and she was moved to Kingston General Hospital in Martin’s ambulance on
October 18th. While there
everything that skilful medical attendance and careful nursing could do, was
done, but it was of no avail, and she passed peacefully away on Saturday,
with perfect submission to the will of God. The deceased was Florence Pennell,
daughter of Peter Pennell, of Roblin, and had spent all of her lifetime in
this vicinity, where she was widely known and highly respected. She will be sadly missed by her many friends
and especially her husband and nine children, three girls and six boys, the
oldest seventeen years, and the youngest the tiny infant of three weeks. Seldom has the whole community been
so saddened by a death as by Mrs. Hart’s death, at the early age of 36 years
and 10 months. The funeral service was
held in the Holiness Movement Church, where Rev. C. J. Wilson preached a very
impressive sermon, assisted by Rev. S. H. Jeffrey. The church was crowded with sympathetic
friends. Sympathy and sadness was
written on everyone’s face, as they looked upon the little helpless family
left without the kind loving care of their mother. Besides her own family she leaves her
father and one brother, Ross Pennell, of Wilton to mourn her loss. Her remains were conveyed to the Roblin
cemetery and interred in the family plot. |

Hart, Peter |
Died at the Age of 107 Years Peter Hart, Sr., died on Friday at
the home of his son, Mr. Russell Hart, who resides about half a mile north of
the village of Roblin, at the ripe old age of 107 years. Deceased was
probably the oldest resident of this section and possibly the oldest in the
Province of Ontario. He was one of the earliest settlers of these parts and
distinctly remembered and worked upon the construction of the old historical
covered bridge, which formerly spanned the river at the east end of Napanee.
He was at that time a young man about eighteen years of age. Besides helping
to construct the old Grand Trunk Railway through this section, he was one of
the early pioneers who blazed the first trail north as far as Roblin. At that
time Napanee and the surrounding country was a huge wooded wilderness. The
funeral took place on Sunday at 1.30 p.m., the services being held in the
Holiness Movement Church at Roblin, after which the remains were laid to rest
in the family plot just south of the village.

OBITUARY - Mr. John Hartin Mr. John Hartin, of West Plain,
passed peacefully away on October 26th, 1928, at the age of
seventy-three. He had been ailing from some time, but was only in bed a few
days when the call came to come up higher. Everything was done that could be
done to stay the hand of death, but God had called and he must go. Many years he had been a servant of
the Lord, and a faithful helper in church and community life. He left a clear evidence behind that the
Lord was with him, with no dark clouds to hide the master’s face, as he went
down into the valley of death. The funeral was largely attended at
the United Church at West Plain where he was a regular attendant. The service was conducted by his Pastor,
Rev A. E. Oliver, and Rev. Mr. Bennett, Pastor of the Holiness Movement Church
at Roblin. A beautiful duet was rendered by Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Brooks, of
Roblin. The Scripture lesson chosen by
the deceased, was taken from the 14th chapter of John, that being
his favourite chapter. He leaves to mourn his loss a
sorrowing wife and two daughters, Mrs. W. J. Tyner, and Mrs. W. G. Pringle;
also three sisters and two brothers.
Mr. Hartin will be greatly missed, and the vacancy will be hard to
fill, but his work was done. |

Hawkins, Henry |
HENRY HAWKINS - Was born at
Bittirswell, near Lutterworth, Leicestershire, England, Dec. 21st,
1807. He was clearly converted to God
when he was seventeen years of age, the memory of which remained throughout
his life and formed a delightsome subject of conversation the days preceding
his death. He united first with the
Congregationalists in Lutterworth, and afterwards with the people called
“Methodists,” who met in a little church called the Bethel, in the town of
Leicester. Here he became a local
preacher, and continued in that office as long as he was able to take
appointments, and thus work for the Master.
He came to Canada in 1839, and found a church home among the Episcopal
and Primitive Methodists; and after coming to St. Mary’s he joined with the
Methodist Church, which he attended as long as he was able. The principal part of his active Christian
life was spent in connection with the Brampton and Wellesley Circuits of the
Primitive Methodist Church. I enjoyed
my visits with him during the latter days of his life, and found him in the
exercise of strong faith in God and of good hope in the home prepared for
him. He was among those who say “the
former days were better than these,” and yet he was much interested in the
work of the Church, and especially anxious for the salvation of his own
family, each of whom regarded him as a godly father. He died on the 22nd of December,
1886. |

citizens of Ernestown Township. Deceased was a son of the late John Machar
Hawley and Mary Minerva Pearson, and a great-great-grandson of Capt. Jeptha
Hawley, one of the early U.E. Loyalist settlers in Ernestown. Mr. Hawley received his early
education at the Bath Continuation School and on moving to Watertown NY, with
his parents, completed his education there, where he specialized in music and
art. When living in Napanee he practised
photography for a number of years, and was the first photographer to take
family groups in the homes. In his earlier years he was an enthusiastic
hunter and sportsman, and looked forward to the yearly hunting season in the
north country. IN 1925 he was married to Jean
McGreer, who, with one daughter, Mary, survives him. Miss Ethel Hawley, of
Napanee and Miss Edith Hawley, of Spokane, Wash., are first cousins of the
deceased. Mr. Hawley's latter days were spent in the Hawley district. In August

At Adolphustown, Tuesday, 12th March,
1907, C. Gibson Hawley, aged 51 years and 7 months. SUN SET AT NOON The expression 'sun set at noon',
applies very pathetically to the deceased of our lamented friend, Charles
Gibson Hawley, who departed this life in the old home at Gosport, in the
Township of Adolphustown, on Tuesday evening, March 12th 1907. He
was the only son of the late Samuel Hawley and his esteemed wife, whose
maiden name was Miss Jemima Huycke. His birth took place on the 20th
day of August, in the year 1855. He was always proud to claim Ernesttown as
his native township. His age, at the time of his death was a few months less
than 52 years. How true that with him the sun of life went down while it was
still high noon. He was married to Miss Hannah Baker,
of Portsmouth, near Kingston, in the year 1880. Those who survive him and now
mourn his loss are, his devoted wife, his sorrowing and aged mother, one
widowed sister, Mrs. Randell, and two children, Frank, of Winnipeg, and Mrs.
Jas. Robertson, now residing in the old home at Gosport, with her devoted
husband and widowed mother. The deceased contracted a severe cold, some ten
weeks previous to his death, which developed into pneumonia and terminated
fatally, in spite of all that medical science and skilful nursing could do.
He entertained but slight hopes of recovery from the beginning, and at once
surrendered to the will of God. He spent the weeks of his lingering illness
in seeking and trusting Christ, under the earnest and faithful direction of
pastor and many praying friends. While our transfated friend felt satisfied
that he had made his peace with God, before he was taken away, yet he wished
to leave a dying message for his neighbors and friends. This is the message coming
from his dying lips; 'make your peace with God, at once, do not waste your
lives in sin, and run the risk of losing your souls forever.' May we all be
disposed to heed our neighbor's dying message, since it has been written by
God, 'He that taketh warning shall deliver his soul.' The funeral, which took
place on March 14th, was largely attended, and the memorial
service, conducted by his pastor, Rev. J. W. Down, was very suitable an
deeply impressive. What is mortal of our lost one will wait the trumpet's
call, in the Eastern cemetery at Napanee. May his ashes rest in peace until
the morning breaks - Com. |

Death from Hydrophobia - A melancholy
event, the like of which is fortunately of very rare occurrence, transpired
here last week. A little boy, about eight years of age, son of Mr. Sheldon
Hawley of this town, died of hydrophobia on Thursday morning, having been
bitten by a small dog owned by Mr. Hawley. The dog was not suspected of being
rabid, and when the child was taken sick the parents did not know the true
nature of the cause till medical men were called in, who saw at once that the
little patient was suffering all the agonies of that dreadful malady. The dog has been killed, as also several
other dogs which were bitten by him, and we trust we shall have no more cases
of the kind to chronicle.

The Late Mrs. Cartwright Hawley Mrs. Cartwright Hawley passed away at
her home in Napanee early Tuesday morning, following an illness of some
weeks. Mrs. Hawley had not enjoyed
good health for some time, and about eight weeks ago suffered a severe stroke
of apoplexy. For a few weeks she was a patient at the Kingston General

since when her condition had steadily become more serious, until death
resulted. The late Mrs. Hawley was formerly
Elizabeth Matilda Joyce, daughter of the late James and Marjory Jane Joyce.
She was born in North Fredericksburgh, nearly seventy-one years ago, where
she lived until her marriage to Mr. Cartwright Hawley, just a few months more
than fifty years ago. After their marriage, Mr. and Mrs. Hawley resided for a
short time at Hay Bay. Then for a number of years they resided in North
Adolphustown, near Bardolph. They retired about twenty-three years ago and
since have made their home in Napanee. In whatever community they have lived,
they have been held in the highest respect by a large host of friends who
sincerely regret the death of Mrs. Hawley. During her residence in Napanee,
Mrs. Hawley had been a member of Trinity United church, where she took an
active interest in all the organizations and had been most generous in her
support. Mrs. Hawley is survived by her
husband and one adopted daughter, Mrs. C.D. Black of Kingston. One brother,
Mr. J.M. Joyce, of Napanee, also survives. Her sisters, Mrs. T.A. Percy, Mrs.

Ex-Sheriff G.D. Hawley Died in 94th
Year - Was Former M.L.A. for Lennox and Addington Death removed one of the oldest and
best known residents of the County of Lennox, when Mr. George Douglas Hawley
passed away at his home on Thomas Street, Napanee, on Friday evening. Better
known to the present generation as 'Sheriff Hawley', Mr. Hawley had also
occupied other positions of prominence in the official life of the county, in
his earlier days. He was a member of the Ontario Legislature for two terms,
when he won the seat in two elections from the late George Tate Blackstock,
K.C. He was defeated in the third election by the late Alex Roe. After his defeat by Mr. Roe, Mr.

administration. For 29 years, Mr. Hawley retained the position of sheriff,

politics. He was one of the few remaining members of the old school of
politicians. Politics to him was the breath of life. His interest in all
matters pertaining to his party remained, a noteworthy characteristic until
the end. While keenly interested in the affairs of the county and province,
his interest extended to a far wider sphere. He kept informed on world events
and had a grasp of British politics, which would be the envy of many a young
man. Until within a week of his death he
was a constant reader of the daily papers and retained a keen grasp on
current events. The late Mr. Hawley was seriously ill

years. He was born in the Township of South Fredericksburgh, nearly 94 years
ago, the eldest son of the late Joseph Hawley and Mary Douglas. At the age of
four years he went to Kingston to live with his uncle, Charles Heath, a
prominent druggist of the city. Until he was thirteen years of age he
attended a private school in the city, conducted by Dr. McLean and then
entered his uncle's drug store, where he remained until he was twenty-one. At
that time he decided to return to his father's home and remained on the farm
until he came to Napanee 38 years ago. Bishop Renison Assisted at Funeral - Mr. Hawley is survived by his widow,
formerly Miss Caroline Bristol, daughter of the late Dr. and Mrs. Bristol of

Hawley was never well, and during the last year he suffered greatly, but
uncomplainingly from cancer of the stomach and gangrene in one foot. To his
family he expressed his willingness to die and then quietly sank to sleep. He

Church. He was the father of six sons and three daughters, the most of whom
are still living. He did duty during the war of 1812-13, and during that time
he was promoted to the office of captain, and was one of the old pensioners
for many years. His wife departed this life just ten months previous to his
death.

A Man Found Dead This morning about 8 o'clock the
people of West Ward in Napanee, were much startled to learn that a man was
found lying dead in front of one of the coal oil cellars on a vacant lot. It
turned out to be a Mr. Josiah Hawley, of Morven, a man about 60 years of age.
It appears that Mr. Hawley, though a very temperate man usually, had been
drinking some last evening, though not much the worst of liquor when last
seen. He seems to have wandered off to the west part of the town and probably
fell off the flat roof of the coal oil cellar where he came to his death. He
was a man very respectably connected, and leaves a wife but no family. An
inquest is being held before Coroner Huffman.

An Old Resident Gone The death of Joseph C. Hawley, of
South Fredericksburgh, resulted from an attack of congestion of the lungs.
Mr. Hawley was 82 years of age, but up to a month prior to his death was in
the enjoyment of excellent health. The Napanee Express says his funeral took
place on Wednesday the place of interment being Bath. The deceased gentleman
was a son of Davis Hawley, a U.E. Loyalist from New York State, who arrived
in this country about 1870* and was among the first settlers of the district.
He was the last of a family of nine, and was born on the farm where he
resided up to the time of his death. Possessed of fine social qualities and a
genial disposition he drew around him a large circle of friends, and it can
be truthfully said of him that he had not an enemy. Though never taking a
very active part in politics he was always a supporter of Reform principles,
and by his good example in applying these principles to his every day walk he
exerted a far-reaching influence for his party. He was for years an active member
of the Canada Methodist Church, in which capacity he will probably be more
greatly missed than in any other. He leaves behind him three sons - the late
worthy member for the Local Legislature, C. and J.M. - all of whom are
"worthy successors of a worthy sire." The daughters are Mrs. W.A.
Gunn, of Kingston, and Misses Mary A. and Carrie Hawley, who reside on the
homestead. |

Obituary - On Tuesday last, another breach was
made by the death of Lavinia Ryder, relict of the late Jehiel Hawley, at the
ripe age of over 95 years. She died at
the home of her son, Mr. Reuben C. Hawley, who is about 70 years of age. She was born in New York State, and with
her late husband settled on the farm where she died, in the seventh
concession of North Fredericksburgh, where she lived continuously for seventy
years. She was remarkably active till
about three years ago, when she received a fall. Since that time she has been almost
helpless. Her last illness only
lasted two days. Her funeral took
place on Wednesday and was very largely attended. She was the mother of seven children, four
of whom are now living, namely, Messrs, R. C. and N. W. Hawley, (of Thurlow),
Mrs. J. Flyndell, Trenton, and Mrs. Roblin, relict of the late David Roblin,
M. P., who now lives in Belleville. The late Mrs. Hawley was an almost
