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. |

of the first Loyalists, which will soon be published by the Historical
Society. |

HAIGHT - At Lynhurst
Hospital on Wednesday March 4 1914, Jane Casey Ingersoll, widow of the late
Canniff 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. |

Haines,
J.
A. (Bert) |
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]

Ham, George |
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. |

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.

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. |

Hartin, John |
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 the 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. |

Henderson, George
H. |
The Late W. H. Henderson The sudden death of George H. Henderson occurred
unexpectedly at his home at Lime Lake early on Sunday morning, February 21st. Although in his 82nd year, Mr.
Henderson had been enjoying unusually good health. Recently, whilst visiting his daughter at Roslin, he had an attack of influenza, from which he made
a good recovery. Since returning to
his home he had been about as usual, but was suddenly stricken with a heart
attack early Sunday. Mr. Henderson, who was the son of the late
John Henderson, post master and general store keeper, at Lime Lake for many
years, and Orpha Hall, had lived practically all
his life at Lime Lake, with the exception of a few years spent in the United
States when a young man. He was very
well and favourably known in the district. For many years he had been a
successful farmer and had also followed the vocation of carpenter, and was
responsible for the building of many homes and barns in the district. He was an active and regular attendant of
the United Church and for over 45 years was a member of Lime Lake Orange Lodge. Mr. Henderson’s wife, formerly Lucy
Thompson, died about three years ago.
He is survived by one daughter,
Mrs. Norman Alexander of Roslin, and three
sons, Ward, Bert and William, all of Lime Lake. He is also survived by three brothers,
Andrew of Napanee, Robert of Kingston, Thomas of Hillier; three sisters, Mrs. Ella Jarmin of Watford, Ont., Mrs. Herman Masters of Hamilton,
Mrs. Sarah Alexander of Hillier and three half-sisters, Mrs Maud Bird and
Mrs. Elias Hudgins of Syracuse, N.Y., and Mrs. James Alexander of Magee,

HENDERSON - At Napanee, on Thursday, May 12th,
1921, Mrs. Margaret Henderson, aged 87 years and 11 months. OBITUARY - Margaret Henderson. On Friday, May 12th, 1921, there
passed peacefully away one of the oldest and most respected residents of the
Town of Napanee. Margaret Henderson, who was a daughter of
John Scott, of Ebenezer, was born in Ireland, in 1833, and came to this
country when about a year old. The
family lived for some years in Adolphustown, but finally settled at Ebenezer,
in Tyendinaga.
here her early years were spent.
She was one of a large family, only two of whom are now left to mourn
her loss, Henry, of Northport, Michigan and David, of California. She was one of the pioneer school teachers
of the County, having taught successfully for a number of years. In 1870, she married John Henderson,
merchant, of Lime Lake, one of the early settlers of Hastings Co., who predeceased
her some fourteen years. When quite young she was converted to God
and united with the Methodist Church, of which she was to the end a faithful
and zealous supporter. She leaves a
large family to mourn her loss, her stepchildren, William, Thomas, Robert and
Andrew, of Napanee; John of Port
Huron, Michigan; George, of Lime
lake; James, of Parish, New York; Mrs. Elijah Jarmin,
lime Lake; Mrs. Herman Masters,
Hamilton, and Mrs. Thos. H. Alexander, of Hillier, P.E. County; and her own family, Mrs. E. W. Hudgins, of
Parish, New York; Mrs. M. B.
Alexander, Napanee, and Mrs. J. Lucas, Lime Lake. Although Mrs. Henderson had nearly reached
the advanced age of 88 years, her mind was as keen and her intellect as
brilliant as ever, while her interest in and knowledge of the current events of
the day far surpassed that of many younger persons. She was one who was always youthful in
thought, fearless in speech, true to her convictions, a kind and obliging
neighbour, a generous and indulgent mother and a faithful friend. Her loss will be greatly felt not only by
the family, but by the large circle of friends and acquaintances, with whom
she came in contact. Up to within a
few days of her death she was active as ever.
But on Wednesday morning she was taken suddenly ill. Medical aid was at once summoned, but in
spite of all that loving friends could do, she passed peacefully away at 8
o’clock on Thursday night. Her funeral, which took place from the
residence of her daughter Mrs. M. B. Alexander, Richard St., on Sunday, was
largely attended. The short service at
the house was conducted by her Pastor, Rev. Dr. Shorey. Her pall-bearers were her six sons. The remains were then taken to Lime Lake
church, near which a good many years of her life had been spent. This church, though crowded to its utmost
capacity would not hold the large crowd of neighbours and friends who came to
show her respect and honour. A very able and inspiring address was
delivered by Rev. E. B. Cooke, of Newburgh, a former Pastor. He was assisted in the services by Rev. Mr.
Wilson, of Roblin, Pastor of the Church.
Both clergymen spoke very highly of deceased, emphasing
especially the fact that her life had been one of service. Mr. Cooke spoke from the text, “Precious in
the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints”. The Choir rendered beautiful and
appropriate music. She was interred by
the side of her husband in the cemetery at Lime lake. Friends were present from new York city,
Port Huron, Mich., Parish, New York, Trenton, Belleville, Odessa, Selby and
Hillier. |

DEATH OF R. G. K. HEPBURN – In the death of
Robert Grant Keith Hepburn, Picton has lost one of its most outstanding young business men, the community a useful
and respected citizen and his family a kind and loving husband and father. Keith Hepburn was called away in the prime
of life. A young man, only 39 years of
age, and full of life and vigor, many years of
happiness and usefulness seemed ahead.
But death, the grim reaper, did not spare him. After an illness of only three days, he
passed away at the Picton Hospital on Wednesday, February 22nd,
following an operation for appendicitis on the previous Monday. Everything that medical skill could suggest
was unavailing and his death is mourned by the entire community, who extend
to his family their deepest sympathy.

lumber and coal and wood business. On the retirement of the other members of
the firm some five or six years ago, he took over the business and has since
carried on the coal and wood trade of Hepburn Bros. About four years ago he organized the
Quinte Canning Co. utilizing the mill premises at the dock and since that
time has put up tomatoes at their plant.
Mr. Hepburn was a keen sportsman.
He was a good shot and thoroughly enjoyed a days
shooting. He was a member of the
Picton Curling Club and a good curler.
His wife who survives him was Miss Johnson, daughter of the late J. W.
Johnson of Belleville. Four children,
two boys and two girls, the eldest 11 years and the youngest 3 years of age
also survive. Mr. Hepburn had three
brothers, Brig.-General B. R. Hepburn, C. M. G. of Woburn Chase, London,
England; Major Colin Hepburn, also of
London, England, and Mr. Jas. D.C. Hepburn who just landed in England with
his family on Sunday last. His father
Mr. A. W. Hepburn is also in England. His mother, Mrs. A. W. Hepburn of Toronto
reached Picton just before his death.

OBITUARY -
Mrs. W. S. Herrington Deep grief was felt throughout the town in the
late afternoon of Sunday, march 6th, when the news spread of the
death of Mrs. Herrington, wife of Walter S. Herrington, K.C. Mrs. Herrington’s health had been impaired
from some time, but she had been able to continue most of her usual activites, and had appeared to be regaining her
strength. Her final illness was but of
a few hours’ duration, and the end came with unexpected suddenness. Mrs. Herrington was a very prominent and
public-spirited member of the community , and was an enthusiastic and energetic
worker in every good cause. For many
years she had been identified with the Children’s Aid Society, and at the
time of her death was head of the Women’s finance Committee of the Victorian
Order of Nurses. During the war the
Red Cross work benefited by her labours, and it many
be said that no movement for the welfare of the community failed to draw from
her a sympathetic and substantial support.
But what elicited the most unstinted devotion of her time and her
talents was the work of her Church. In
Sunday School, Choir, W.A., and almost every form of church activity, her
earnest zeal was manifested. For
several years she had been President of the Church Womans’
Guild, and upon its work were lavished her time and her efforts, while her
gifts of leadership and her personal popularity ensured that cooperation
which so recently resulted in the achievement of the society’s main
objective. In her Church, in the town,
and in a very wide circle of friends, will Mrs. Herrington be greatly missed. The funeral service was held in St. Mary
Magdalene’s Church, on Tuesday afternoon, conducted by the Vicar, Rev. Rural
Dean Coleman, assisted by Rev. Messrs. A. H. Coleman, A. H. Creeggan, R. W. Spencer, and J. deP.
Wright. the church was filled to the
doors. The hymns, “For All the Saints”
and “Abide with Me:, were well rendered by the large choir, and Mr. Marvin Rathbun sang very beautifully “Rock of Ages:. Mrs. Herrington was the daughter of the
late William Tilley, who was Science Master at the Napanee High School about
forty years ago. Besides her husband,
she is survived by three children, Miss Helen, of New York; Mrs. T. D. Sneath,
of Boston, and W. Harold, of Kingston;
and by one brother, J. Fred Tilley, of Toronto. A brother, Major William Tilley, died in
England, about 1 year ago. |

JAMES GUILDFORD HESS - The subject of this memoir was born in the
township of Sidney, Ont., March 27th, 1853; died September, 1885. His parents were pious. His father was a class-leader in the
Methodist Church, who died when James was ten years of age, committing him to
the care of his heavenly Father. He learned the drug business in the city of
Belleville. His employers and all who
knew him respected him for his strict business habits and integrity of
character. The last
thirteen years of his life was spent in the United states. For several years he was manager of a large
drug store in the city of St. Louis, where he was united in marriage to Laura
A. Bell who, with two sons, is left to mourn the loss of a kind father. His health failing him, his physicians sent
him to Colorado in hopes of regaining his health, where he still continued a
drug store successfully, trying every means to restore his health, without
avail. Although a thorough and careful business
man, he had not yet given his heart to God.
The prayers of a mother followed him continually, and when told by his
physicians that he had but a short time to live (his disease was consumption)
his longing for home, and to see his mother once more was so great that with
his family and a brother he started on a journey of 2,000 miles. Weak and exhausted he reached his home,
died the ninth day after. He says, “Mother, I have not seen you in ten years,
and I have come all this way to died with you, and now I want you to pray
with me.” It was a great trial, but
the Lord was present in great power.
He exclaimed, “Now the Lord has lifted the burden off my soul, and I
am happy!” The morning of his death he
asked his step-father to pray, and all gathering around his bed united in
prayer; he said it was the happiest
day of his life. For months he had
been trying to give himself to the Lord, and now he shouted his praises
aloud, entreating of a brother, who was holding him up in bed, to give his
heart to Jesus and commence to pray
then exclaiming with joy beaming from his countenance, “religion is a
grand and glorious thing, and regretting that he had not spent his whole life
in serving God.” Thus died an
affectionate and dutiful son. God be
praised, he does and will still continue to answer the prayers of his people. Mothers, continue to pray. M. CROUTER |

Newburgh’s popular citizens was a severe shock to the villagers early on
Tuesday morning, when it was learned that Fred Hill had been instantly killed
while walking on the Canadian National tracks at Newburgh. The supposition is that Mr. Hill, who was
in night attire when found, had left his home, which is near the track, and
walked on the track towards the station while asleep. It is also thought that he was struck by
the fast Ottawa-Toronto train, which does not stop at Newburgh, and, as this
train was late on the morning of the accident, it would have passed through
Newburgh about the time the accident happened. Deceased, who was in his early fifties, was
one of Newburgh’s most prominent and popular citizens, and his untimely
demise is sincerely regretted by old and young, as well as by a host of
friends throughout the County. Mr.
Hill was a member of Newburgh Board of Education, Warden in the Anglican
Church, and a member of the Masonic Order. Besides his wife, he leaves three daughters
and one son to mourn the loss of a kind and loving husband and father. One brother, Mr. Wm. Hill, of Toronto, and
two sisters, also survive. |

Me.” The choir rendered a very
appropriate anthem, “There are no tears in the presence of God.” The pallbearers were Messrs. T. Gurren, G. Gurren, H. White (a
nephew), R. Sills, R. Shillington and W. Ham.
Interment was made in the McDowell memorial Cemetery, Sandhurst. |

The Late Leo Hinch The sad death occurred on Tuesday night,
October 3rd, 1922, at his father’s home, Camden East, of James Leo
Hinch, third son of James Hinch. In spite of loving care and attention, he
grew gradually weaker. During his
illness he was continually cheered and comforted by his many friends for whom
he always had a welcome smile. He was
born July 19th, 1886, and his early demise at the age of 36 years,
leaves its desolute sting in the hearts of his relatives
who cannot yet realize that they will see him no more. The funeral took place on Friday morning to
the Church of St. Anthony of Padua, where a solemn Requiem Mass was sung for
the repose of his soul, by Rev. Father MacCarthy. He leaves besides his aged father, two
sisters, Mrs. John Gehan and Mrs. Chas Ingoldsby, and two brothers, Peter and Matthew, to mourn

Charles R. Hoover – Going about town in his
usual health on Thursday, retiring for the night about 10 o’clock, and being
overtaken by a stroke of paralysis from which he never regained consciousness
up to the time of his death on Saturday was the fate of Charles Ruttan
Hoover. The late Mr. Hoover was born
in the township of North Marysburgh 75 years ago. He married a daughter of the late Thomas Waring and to them one child, Mrs. Charles H. Rogers of
London, Ont., was born. Mr. Hoover
followed the occupation of farming and was considered a successful man. Of late years he has been living retired in
Picton. He was of a very sociable
disposition, fond of the company of his friends and was ever a prominent and
welcome companion among them. Besides
his widow and daughter he leaves to mourn, two sisters, Mrs. Jaspar Dingman of Picton, and
Mrs. David Bradshaw of Foxboro. Mr.
Hoover was a staunch conservative in politics, and adherent to the First
Methodist Church and although he never sought public office, it was his
pleasure to sit as a member of the high school board for some nine years and
out of respect for him the flag of the school was at half mast. The funeral took place on Monday. Rev. J. J. Rae and Rev. W.L. Armitage conducted a private service for the family at
two o’clock and owing to Mr. Rae being called out of town by the afternoon
train Mr. Armitage conducted the public service at

ROBERT HORD - Passed from earth to his heavenly
inheritance January 28th, 1885, and was buried on the 30th
of the same month, in sure and certain hope of a
joyful resurrection through our Lord Jesus Christ. The subject of this obituary was born in
London township, and from childhood was placed under religious influences. He did not, however, unite with the Church,
until in the fall of 1879, under the labors of the
Rev. J. E. Moore, in a revival meeting in the village of Komoka. Our dear departed brother kept a general
store in Komoka for eighteen years, and was
post-master at the time of his death.
He did much for the moral, religious, and educational interests of the
vicinity in which he lived. The
Methodist Church in Komoka stands as a memorial of his energy and usefulness. As a Christian, a society steward, and a
member of the Trustee Board he is missed.
His house was a welcome home for the servants of God. Revs. S.S. Weaver and A. Kaniman were given a home gratuitously - in fact, his
liberality was almost unbounded. His
funeral sermon was preached by the Rev. J.E. Moore, his pastor, from the
words, “Let me die the death of the righteous, and let my last end be like
his,” to a very large audience, which
gave evidence of the very high esteem in which he was held by the neighborhood in which he had been a public
benefactor. Brother Hord leaves a widow and seven children, besides a large
circle of influential friends to mourn their loss. May we meet him in the “better land.” |

MRS. JOHN HORNER – Sudden indeed did the
Angel of Death take one from our midst.
The call came to a much respected neighbor
and friend, in the person of Mrs. John Horner, of Adolphustown, on Wednesday,
May 3d. Mrs.
Horner was seriously ill only a few days and very few of her friends knew of
her illness, her death coming as a very severe shock to all. The deceased was the daughter of Mr. John Furse, being the youngest (only 32 years of age) of a large
family. Three sisters and three
brothers remain, besides her aged father, all of whom were present to pay
their last respects. She also leaves
behind a sorrowing husband and a little daughter about three years of age.
She will be sadly missed in the home circle by all, and more
especially by her aged father, to whom she has been untiring in her devotion
during his serious illness of the past four weeks. The neighbors
also regret her departure to the better world as her pleasant manner won her
many friends. But we must remember
that we may all meet again if we so wish as a Home in Heaven is given to all
who seek it through our Lord Jesus Christ.
The funeral took place on Friday last at 1 o’clock, the services being
held at the house, conducted by Rev. Mr. Thomas and was largely
attended. The remains were placed in
the U.E.L. Methodist cemetery. |

Horsey, Emma (nee

Obituary – The funeral of the late Mrs. E.
E. Horsey (nee Miss Emma Moxon), took place last
Thursday afternoon at Kingston. The
service was conducted by Canon Loucks assisted by
Rev. R S. Forneri, and was attended by Mrs. Horsey’s
near relatives, including her father, Mr. John Moxon, ---
Herbert and Miss Mary Moxon of Picton, Dr.
and Mrs. Elliott of Chesaning, Mich.,
A. J. Moxon of Binghampton,
N.Y., and Mrs. Pearsoll of Toronto. Among the many beautiful floral tributes
were noticed two little bunches of flowers brought by two of the little ones
in her infant class at St. Luke’s Sunday school where she had been a
successful and much loved teacher.
Though always frail, her death came as a great shock to all her
friends, for she had been feeling unusually well and was preparing to move from
her house on Frontenac Street. On Monday,
the day of her death, she had been out both in the afternoon and evening and
retired about 9:30 p.m. apparently quite well. About ten o’clock she awakened
her husband as she was suffocating.
Mr. Horsey summoned their neighbor to stay
with his wife while he brought the nearest doctor, as the telephone did not
act properly. While he was away the
few minutes necessary to go two blocks, she became unconscious and in that
state passed away, the attack having only lasted in all about 30
minutes. The remains lie in the family
plot at Glenwood. |

JOHN N. HOUGH 1842-1917 -- The subject of
this obituary was born on Lot 1, in the 4th Concession of North Fredericksburgh
original in the year 1842. He lived and died on the above mentioned old
homestead, having passed away on January 1st, 1917, at the age of 74 years, 8
months. John N. Hough was a highly respected and widely known citizen in
these parts. He took an interest in the political affairs of the country, and
was for his lifetime, a staunch Conservative, but was liberal minded in his
views. He was a councillor in the municipality for a number of years and a
Justice of the Peace since 1905. In religion he was a life-long Methodist and
a member of the same for upwards of forty years. As an active member of the
Church he has filled the office of Class Leader, S.S. Superintendent,
Steward, Recording Steward, and was a trustee of the Gretna Church at the time
it was built. He was a regular and faithful attendant of the means of grace
and a supporter of the Church in every way, both spiritually and financially.
In business, he was honest, industrious and economical and succeeded where
many would have failed. In the home he was so appreciated that here more than
any other place his absence will be most keenly felt. During his protracted
illness he manifested great patience and cheerfulness, and endured everything
without a murmur. He leaves to mourn his loss two brothers and two sisters,
viz., Wm. H. Hough, St. Catharines, Charles W. and Maria Hough on the
homestead; Mrs. J. A. Ronson, Toronto. Everything
possible was done to add to his comfort during his sickness, and in this
respect, his nephew, Bismark Edgar, was especially
kind. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. W. S. Boyce and Rev. C. W. DeMille, in the Gretna Church on Thursday, January 4th
, where a great number of sympathizing friends and acquaintances came to pay
their last respects to an honored citizen. The
remains were placed in the vault of Riverside cemetery. The friends have the
sympathy of the entire neighborhood. And so of John
N. Hough, it can truly be said, "He rests from his labours and his works
do follow him." |

Hough, Martin |
Martin Hough - of Sillsville, died quite
suddenly and to most of his friends unexpectedly last Tuesday morning, 30th May, after a short illness of about a week.
A week ago last Wednesday he was taken down with pneumonia, and although all
the resources that medical skill and careful nursing could provide were
forthcoming, he gradually sank until the messenger came Tuesday. Mr. Hough
was a son of the late John G. Hough, was 60 years of age, and resided on the
old homestead of his U.E.L. ancestors. Deceased leaves a wife and one son,
Mr. Earl Hough, attending the Napanee Collegiate Institute. His mother, aged
89 years, two sisters, Mrs. J.D. Galt, of Macdonald, and Mrs. David Young of
Sillsville, and brother, Mr. J. W. Hough of Toronto, survive him. Deceased
was for years a consistent member of the Methodist church, a prominent church
official, and for several years a member of the Township council of South
Fredericksburgh. In politics, like all of his family, he was a conservative.
The funeral took place on Thursday morning at 10 o'clock, Rev. Dr. Sanders
holding the service at the residence of the deceased, who was the recording
steward of the circuit. The sermon was most appropriate in the sad circumstances,
being forcible, eloquent and pathetic. The remains were followed to the
Sillsville cemetery by a large number of friends and acquaintances, who had
learned to esteem deceased for his upright character and Christian virtues. |

Hough,
W. B. |
Late W. B. Hough – Word was received in town
on Saturday announcing the death of a well-known and highly esteemed resident
of the Sillsville district in the person of W. B. Hough at the age of 76
years and the funeral service, which was held from his late residence to the
Sillsville United Church on Sunday afternoon was very largely attended. The illness of Mr. Hough had been of a
brief duration, about two weeks, and in his passing the Sillsville district
has lost a life-long resident, one who had been a farmer all his life and who
had always taken a keen interest in the better things of life. The members of the Hough family were native
of Sillsville and the only remaining brother is Mr. Martin L. Hough. The deceased had been a member of the
official board and by his pleasant manner won a wide circle of friends. He was well-known in Napanee where in the
years that are gone he was a frequent visitor and where he did his
shopping. A few years ago he suffered
a sore bereavement in the passing of his life partner. A brother passed away several months ago,
and there was only a short time between the death of his brother and the
latter’s wife. The service was
conducted by the Rev. A. J. Rikely. |

MABEL HOWARD – Nor for many years have the
residents of Collins Bay received such a blow as when two weeks ago the sad
news came that Miss Mabel Howard, our faithful school teacher, had passed
away at the General Hospital. She was taken sick a few days previously by what
was considered a cold. Medical aid was summoned and it was found to be of a
more serious nature. All loving hands
could do was of no avail and she was taken to the hospital and three days
later she bade farewell to her mother who never left her bedside, and passed
away to her heavenly home. She cared
not for the alluring pleasure of frivolous life. Her life was one of care and love devoted
to her home and mother. As a school
teacher she was loved by all. The
funeral took place from her home at Collins Bay. Rev. Mr. Smith of Christ Church, Cataraqui,
took charge of the service. Many
beautiful flowers were placed on the casket by kind friends, among them being
gates ajar from the school section.
Her remains were laid to rest in the family lot at Bath. As the funeral procession passed the school
house the old bell in solemn tones rang out.
It had lost a friend. The
deepest sympathy is extended to all bereaved. – Kingston Standard. Miss Howard was a sister of Mrs. Wm. Tait, Picton |

Howe, William |
DIED – Howe – From his injuries of
yesterday, Willie, youngest son of Mr. Wm. Howe, aged 4 years and 3
months. The funeral will leave his
father’s residence, 396 Cumberland street, on Sunday 20th inst.,
at 2:30 p.m. Friends and acquaintances
are respectfully invited to attend. PAINFUL ACCIDENT – A Little Boy Seriously
Burned – His Recovery Doubtful – A little boy, aged five years, the son of
Mr. William Howe, painter, Cumberland street, was very badly burned yesterday
morning , his injuries being of such a serious character that his life is
despaired of. It appears that the
child went into the bathroom, which is just opposite the room in which he
sleeps, and it is supposed his clothes, the ones in which he had slept,
caught fire from a small stove in the
room. The clothing must have caught
readily and burned fiercely, as although but a few seconds elapsed from the
time the child’s screams were heard and the arrival of his mother, he was
frightfully burned. Mr. Howe’ son, who
was sitting at the dining table, was the first one to hear the cries of his
suffering brother and hastened up a back stairs to ascertain the cause of the
trouble. On reaching the bath room
door he found that the door was locked, and realizing that some danger
threatened his younger brother, he attempted without avail, to break open the
door. In the meantime, Mrs. Howe who
had heard the screams, rushed up the front staircase, and succeeded in
getting into the room by another door and her terror and sorrow may be better
imagined than described, when she saw the unfortunate boy standing beside the
door endeavoring to get outside, and calling for
assistance, with his face, head and body, terribly burned by the relentless
fire, which had not at the time of her entrance entirely consumed the child’s
clothing. Mrs. Howe instantly caught the child in her
arms, and with her dress subdued the flames.
A large quantity of raw oil was immediately applied to the little
fellow’s body. Doctors Sweetland and Macdougal made
their appearance soon after the occurrence, and prescribed the proper
remedies. The doctors, upon an
examination of the body, expressed the opinion that some of the vital parts
had been affected by the fire, and the child’s recovery was therefore,
extremely improbable. Mrs. Howe, who
had up to this period, borne her trouble with calmness and fortitude, fainted
away, and has since been suffering from a temporary fit of insanity brought
on by the strain upon her nerves. Mrs.
Howe’s hands were found to be slightly burned, but were not seriously
injured. Morphine was administered to
the child, who rested quietly all day.
The little fellow was a great favorite with
all who knew him. |
