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 afterwards a resident of Toronto, died on Tuesday
evening last at the 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 his 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. |

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. |

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

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] Reuben Stilwell. |

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. |

Ham, Benjamin |
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. |

devoted member of St. Paul’s church and last year was the efficient president
of the Women’s Auxiliary, which position she regretfully relinquished on
account of failing health. Because her character so aptly illustrated the
good, the true and the beautiful, her life and her example will long be held

beloved husband of Elizabeth Crews, and dear father of Katherine and Thomas
at home in his 49th year.
Resting at the residence of his father, George T. Ham, South Fredericksburgh

St. Paul’s Cemetery. Ex-R've Frank Ham Died Suddenly
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

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. |

was his gain. He was a member of the Wesleyan Methodist Church. A very

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. |

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. |

for, it came suddenly and as a shock. He was the last of one of the old
families of the County, was well known, and was possessed of more than the
average number of friends, who will miss his always cheery greeting and
pleasant smile. He had reached the age
seventy-five years and seven months.

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. |

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.

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. |

NELSON HART - The death
occurred at the home of his son, Nelson, on Wednesday morning, November 18th,
of Nelson Hart, one of Napanee’s oldest residents. The late Mr. Hart had been in ill health
for several months and was confined to his bed for several weeks. A son of Mr. and
Mrs. Darius Hart, he was one of a family of thirteen, and was born in this
county, where he was a successful farmer for a number of years. At the age of 22
years, he married Margaret Anne Thompson, of Roblin, who predeceased him
fourteen years ago. They lived, with
their family, near Roblin for a number of years. Leaving that district Mr. Hart purchased a
farm near Moscow and remained in that neighborhood for four years. Leaving
Moscow, he moved to the Anderson district where he and Mrs. Hart resided
until her death, six years later. The
family remained on the farm for three years and then Mr. Hart and his son
moved to Croydon, where they resided for four years, after which Mr. Hart
purchased the Roland Hawley farm on the Newburgh Road. After a life-time spent on the farm he
retired to enjoy a well-earned competence and came to Napanee, where he has
resided for the past three years. He
was a member of the United Church and a Conservative in politics. Until his illness he enjoyed exceptionally
good health and was a remarkable man for his age. He was exceptionally well known throughout
the northern parts of the county and was held in high esteem by all who knew
him. He leaves to mourn his loss eight
children, forty grandchildren and twenty great grand-children and one
brother, Miles Hart of Dresden. His children
are: Edward Hart of Roblin, Frank Hart
of Little Creek, Nelson Hart of Napanee, Alex. Hart, Croydon; Mrs. Marlin,
Tamworth; Mrs.
Will Smith, Centreville; Mrs.
Marshall, St. Catharines; and Mrs. Albert Young, Napanee. The funeral service was held on Friday

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

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. |

Finkle Hawley - The death
occurred at Kingston, on Mar. 8 1962, of Bertran F.
Hawley, one of the best known and highly respected 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 of last year he suffered a
stroke and had since been confined to hospital. Pneumonia finally developed
and he passed away on Thursday morning, Mar. 8. The remains rested at the

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

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

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 Hospital, but was brought back to her home in Napanee about a month
ago, 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

sisters, Mrs. T.A. Percy, Mrs. (Rev.) T.H. Richards, and her brothers,

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. Hawley was made Clerk of the Division court, which position
he held for nine years, until he was appointed Sheriff, about forty years ago
by the Mowat administration. For 29 years, Mr.
Hawley retained the position of sheriff, until he superannuated eleven years
ago, and the present sheriff, Mr. C.W. Vandervoort,
was appointed to the office. Intense Interest
in Politics - Mr. Hawley was a
staunch Liberal in 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 only one week, although he had been confined to his
room for the past two 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 Napanee; one daughter, ,
Miss Ethel Hawley and one sister, Miss Caroline Hawley, Napanee. Other

One of Ernesttown's oldest residents passed away here on
Thursday night last, in the person of Jason Hawley. Mr. Hawley was in his
seventy-sixth year, and was born about two miles from this village, on the Quobin road. He has never lived outside of the township.
During his lifetime, Mr. Hawley was a very hardworking man, and was always
honorable in all his dealings. In his early years he was a great hunter and
trapper, and was thoroughly acquainted with the back country. His latter years were quiet and peaceful, and he died with
many friends and not an enemy in the world. For a number of years he was
superintendent of the walks in the village, and always attended promptly to
his work. For a few years, Mr. Hawley was never well, and during the last
