Ingersoll - At Regina,
N.W.T., on 30th July, Marshall Bidwell Ingersoll, formerly of Conway,
Fredericksburgh, and brother-in-law of Miss Harding, Napanee, aged 66 years. Obituary -
Marshall Bidwell Ingersoll - a native, and for many years a well known
resident of the Township of South Fredericksburgh, died at his residence in
Regina, N.W.T., last week of paralysis, aged about 65 years. Having spent all
his early days on the farm where he was born and raised, near Conway, he went
to the North West over twenty years ago and became one of the pioneer
settlers at Regina, where he spent the remainder of his days. The body passed
through here on Thursday last, to be buried in the Adolphustown churchyard,
beside the grave of his wife, who was a daughter of the late Rev. M. Harding,
so many years Rector of Adolphustown and Fredericksburgh. She predeceased him
a good many years. The Ingersoll family was among the oldest of the U.E.
Loyalists in this county and a large number of its members were well known
residents of Fredericksburgh at one time, but not one of the name is now left in the country, we believe. Death of M.B.
Ingersoll Regina lost one
of its longest residents in the death of M.B. Ingersoll, familiarly known as
Col. Ingersoll, which sad event took place on last Saturday morning. Mr.
Ingersoll had been very ill for several weeks. Hemorrhage of the brain was
the direct cause of death. Deceased was a brother of Dr. Ingersoll of Regina.
He was aged 66 years. The funeral sermon was preached on Sunday afternoon at
St. Paul's church, by the rector, Rev. W.E. Brown, who dwelt upon some of the
admirable characteristics of the deceased gentleman, the great kindness of
heart only partly hidden beneath a gruff exterior, and his interest in and
love for children, all of whom were his friends. Deceased was a Mason, and
the fraternity took charge of the funeral arrangements. The remains were sent
to Adolphustown, Ont., to be interred beside the grave of the wife who years
ago preceded him to the great beyond. Mr. R. B. Fergusson, whom the Colonel
had named in his will as executor, accompanied the body east. The late Mr.
Ingersoll was a man of marked individuality. He was tall, very corpulent, and
possessed a beard of unusually great length. He came to Regina in the early
eighties. For a number of years past he kept a confectionery and grocery
store, and dealt quite extensively in fruits. He preferred to live alone, but
was withal of very sociable disposition, and a good conversationalist. He had
a host of acquaintances and not an enemy. |

JACKSON – NAPANEE – Dec 15 – The sudden death of Mrs. Robert Jackson, 79, of
Morven, at the home of her son, John, at Bath Saturday came as a shock to
friends and relatives as she was believed to be in good health. The funeral was held at the St. Thomas
church in Morven yesterday afternoon to Morven Cemetery with Rev. S. Walker
and Ven. Archdeacon R. J. Dumbrille officiating at the service. Until four years
ago, the deceased had lived on a farm in Morven for over 40 years, and since
that time had been living with her daughter, Mrs. Claude Knight of
Napanee. Formerly Emma Louise Irvine,
she leaves one son, John, at Bath, and three daughters, Mrs. C. H. Knight,
Mrs. R. VanAlstyne of St. Catharines, and Mrs. William Tompkins of Chinook,
Alta. Her husband died four years ago
in Morven, and the deceased has been an active member of St. Thomas Church
during her lifetime. Messrs. Harry
Spence, Lawrence Chadwick, Delbert Snider, Harold Brandon, Matt Sheltor and Luke Young acted as pall-bearers. THE LATE MRS.
ROBERT JACKSON – The sudden death of Mrs. Robert Jackson occurred last
Saturday at the home of her son, John Jackson, Bath, where she had gone a few
days before to spend a short time.
Mrs. Jackson, since the death of her husband, about five years ago,
had made her home in Napanee with her son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs.
Claude H. Knight. When she left town
last Thursday, to spend the week-end at the home of her son, she was apparently
in her usual state of good health., On Saturday morning, when she failed to
rise at her usual time and when members of the family went to her room they
found she had passed away. Later in
the day her body was brought to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Knight in Napanee
and on Monday afternoon a short service was conducted at the house by Rev. L.
G. Osborne-Walker of Bath and Archdeacon Dumbrille of Napanee, after which a
public service was held at St. Thomas Church at Morven, followed by burial at
Morven Cemetery. Mrs. Jackson,
who before her marriage was Emma Louise Irwin, was born in England about 79
years ago. She was the daughter of the
late Mr. and Mrs. John Irwin, who came to Canada when Mrs. Jackson was about
seven years of age and settled at Milton, Ontario. Mr. and Mrs.
Jackson were married at Milton and came to Morven about 45 years ago, where
they farmed until Mr. Jackson’s death.
Mrs. Jackson was an active member of St. Thomas Anglican Church at
Morven and was especially interested in the work of the Women’s auxiliary. Mrs. Jackson
leaves three daughters Mrs. C. H. Knight, Napanee, Mrs. Reta Vanalstine, St.
Catharines, and Mrs. W. J. Tompkins, Alberta, and one son, John, at Bath. The pall-bearers
at the funeral were Messrs Harry Spence, Lawrence Chadwick, Debert Snider, Harold Brandon, Matthew Shetlor and Luke
Young. |

OBITUARY - Mrs.
I. S. Jackson In the early
morn of the 4th day of April, 1929, in her eightieth year, there
passed to her reward M. J. Booth, loved wife of I. S. Jackson, and daughter
of the late Wm. Booth, who emigrated from Ireland in the early forties of the
last century, and settled near the Village of Roblin, in early days known as
Spencer’s Mills, where the subject of this sketch was born. Early converted to God in a revival held
under the administration of the late J. T. Clark, of the old M. E. church. She lived her whole life in the Township of
Richmond, a truly exemplary Christian life, one truly devoted to her
Saviour. While not caring for too
great an activity in too many church organizations her religion was a
profound and lasting one, of all the essentials of a Christ-like life. Her home and duty thereof were her palace.
She was always ready to help those in need and it was her delight to
live a quiet unpretentious exemplary Christian life, fully resigned when the
end came. She leaves to mourn, her
husband and two daughters, Mrs. T. J. Russell and Mrs. Wilbert Winter, both
of Empey Hill, and two sons, Gardiner Wilson, near Selby, and Wm. Edwin on
the homestead. May she rest in peace. |

ELIZABETH
JACQUES - Elizabeth, relict of the late Thomas Jacques, and whose maiden name
was Graham, was born in Fermanagh, Ireland, in
1828; was united in marriage to her
late husband in 1853, came to Canada in 1854, and settled in the township of Arran, where they lived till death terminated their
mortal career. They were brought up to
the English Church, but some twenty-seven years ago experienced renewing
grace in a protracted meeting held at Mount Hope, on this (Arkwright)
circuit. They at once united with the
Methodist Church, of which they remained devoted members until death. Sister Jacques was remarked for her affable
manner, her kindly disposition, her mental activity, her tender affection as
a wife mother, and friend, and her self-forgetfulness to oblige others. To the writer she, in her last illness,
spoke of how great was her attachment to the public worship of God, and
especially the class meeting. In the
first of her illness - which was congestion of the lungs, and was very brief
- she said “her acceptance with God was not so clear
as she would like - that there were shadows between her and the Saviour.
“ But, thank God, for several hours before
her death, which occurred Jan. 5th, 1885, the true light shone
upon her soul, the shadows fled, and she quietly fell asleep in Jesus. May the surviving and sorrowing family so
live that they may have a happy meeting on the other side the river. [signed]

The Late Mr.
Alex. Jayne Mr. Alex. Jane,
elder son of the late Mr. and Mrs. James A. Jayne, passed away on Saturday
evening, January 30, 1937 in Kingston General Hospital. Although ill with pneumonia for six weeks,
his physicians still held out hopes for his recovery, so his sudden death
came as a shock to his relatives and friends. Alex. was of a cheerful disposition. His smiling countenance and humorous
expressions won for him a good many friends in Adolphustown, where he formerly
resided and in the Napanee district. Besides the
bereaved wife, he leaves to mourn his loss, one brother, Mr. John Jayne,

of Sharp’s Corners. The funeral
service, which was held at his residence, a short distance north of Napanee,
was well attended by neighbours and friends.
His pastor, Rev. W. E. L. Smith, who had visited him during his illness consoled the bereaved friends with his comforting
message, while Mr. Ward Wartman sang by request “Some Day We’ll

Obituary - Mrs.
Jas. A. Jayne - On Wednesday morning, August 24th, 1927, Mrs. Jas. a. Jayne passed
peacefully away at her home, Sharp's Corners, in her eighty-fourth year. Mrs. Jayne was a
daughter of the late Mr. Alexander Thompson, and spent her girlhood days a
short distance north of Napanee. Later in life after her marriage to Mr. Jas.
a. Jayne, she and her husband resided in Richmond, North Fredericksburgh, and
twenty-three years in Adolphustown. Then in need of care during her declining
years, they moved to Sharp's Corners, where they resided with their two
daughters. The deceased was
widely known and had a great many friends. The friendships formed years ago
remained with her throughout a life time. She was very thoughtful towards the
poor. Years ago, when there were a great many people in needy
help throughout the county, she always met them with a kind word, and, with
the co-operation of her husband, did all she could to comfort and provide
them with the necessities of life. She will be greatly missed in the home.
Her memory shall ever be cherished by her loved ones, as a patient wife and a
kind mother. During her
illness of several years duration, she was given the best medical attention
and care. For several years there seemed to be little change in her frail
constitution, but last Spring it became evident to the family that her
condition was becoming more serious, and she could not be with them much
longer. The late Mrs.
Jayne had been a member of the Methodist (United) Church for years, but being of a
quiet and reserved disposition, she will be remembered as a Christian lady,
not as much by her profession, as from her daily walk through life. During
the last weeks of her illness she was drawn closer to her Saviour. Her
husband and family will never forget her last words to them, "I'm going
Home", as she roused in her dying hour. Very soon she left all sickness
and care behind, and went "Home" to join the loved ones who have
passed on before. "Home! Home!, Safe, safe at Home! There's no friend like Jesus - He
leads ius gently Home." Besides an aged
and sorrowing husband, she leaves to mourn her loss, five daughters and two
sons, Mrs. C. Kellar, Deseronto Road;
Mr. Alex. Jayne, Richmond; Mrs. W.B. Nolan, Hay Bay; Mr. John Jayne,
Camden East; Mrs. Wm. McConnell and Misses Electa and Etta Jayne, Sharp's Corners. The impressive
funeral service held at the (Methodist) United church, Selby, conducted by
her Pastor, Rev. J. Batstone, assisted by Rev.
T.H.P. Anderson, was attended by several friends from a distance. The
pallbearers were relatives of the deceased and her body was laid to rest in
Riverview cemetery, beneath the beautiful flowers that covered her grave, to
await the coming of her Saviour on the Resurrection Morn. |

JANE AUSTIN
JEFFREY - In Winnipeg,
August 26th, while visiting her daughter, Mrs. Hunt, Mrs. M. Jeffrey,
of Plympton, Man., died after a few days’ illness.
She was born in County Down, Ireland, September 23rd, 1826 her
maiden name being Austin. February 21st, 1847, she married Mr. M.
Jeffrey, with whom she emigrated the same year to the township of Fitzroy,
County Carleton, Ont., where were born to them three sons and four daughters,
and where they buried one son and two daughters. After a residence there of twenty eight
years they removed to the township of Plympton,
Man., where Mrs. J. enjoyed the distinction of being the first lady
settler. Here they prospered, and had
all the comforts of an Ontario home.
We rejoice to be able to record more than mere earthly prosperity. Though the subject of this notice, with her
husband, had been brought up as Presbyterians, they had not experienced the
new birth until 1862 in a revival conducted by Revs. Case, Hayhurst and Gable, they were both converted to God, and
joined the Methodist Church, of which they have since been honored
members. Mrs. J. was intensely
religious; placing her Christian duties in the forefront, she sought to
“crown Christ Lord of all,” the realm of her affection and ambition, and
became, what seems to be unusual here, a breakwater against the all-whelming
tide of worldliness. The family altar
through all these years has been the sheet-anchor of their home religion in
every storm. When her husband was
absent, though diffident and retiring, yet in loyalty to her Master the
family Bible was taken down, and the family and others, if present, were
regularly and devoutly led in their devotions. When through “often infirmities” in later
years she could rarely be induced to leave her home for other purposes, yet
more rarely could she be induced to stay at home from the means of
grace. In the class meeting which she
loved, her rich, ripe testimony to the goodness of God and the sufficiency of
his grace betokened frequent and close communion with God. The enterprise
and liberality of this family, and their love to Methodism, largely led to
the formation of Plympton Methodist Mission. Theirs was the
home of our first missionaries. The
body of the deceased was removed to her late residence, Aug. 27th,
and on the 28th, a large concourse of friends from the city and
surrounding townships assembled to sadly commit her body to its resting place
in Sunnyside cemetery. A sorrowing
husband, two daughters and a son survive and deeply mourn their loss, but
brightly anticipate a blissful reunion in the better country. A sermon full of
consolation and Christian hope and triumph was preached from the favorite
Psalm xxiii of the deceased by her pastor, S. O. IRVINE |

Laurie Jellet Dies of Wounds – Word has been received of the
death of Laurie Jellet, an Edmonton boy 27 years of
age, who went overseas early in the war with the 66th
Battalion. The notice was to the
effect that he died of wounds on Jan. 28th. He was the eldest son of St. George Jellet of Edmonton and was among the first to join the colors
at the outbreak of war. Few Edmonton
boys were better known in that city than he, and the enlistment of many of
his friends was due to his example.
Ewan Jellett, a younger brother of the

J. Jewell The funeral
service of the late William J. Jewell, who died early on Tuesday morning, was
held at his late residence on Thursday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock under
Masonic auspices. The late Mr.
Jewell had been in poor health for some months and had been critically ill
for about a month. He was born in Prince Edward County, the son of the late
Mr. and Mrs. John Jewell, with whom he removed to Adolphustown in this
county, in his early youth. Mr. Jewell was a
well known carpenter and contractor in Napanee and the district. He learned
his trade with his father and later spent some time in Rochester, where he
perfected his knowledge of his calling.
Following his marriage to Miss Annie McGillivray of Picton, Mr. Jewell
and his wife lived in Ohio for a short time before they returned to Napanee,
where they have since continued to reside. Mr. Jewell was
well known for the excellence of his workmanship. Many homes and buildings in
the town contain examples of his work. Some years ago, Mr. Jewell was a
member of the Town council and to honor his memory, the flag on the town hall
was flown at half mast, following his death. For many years
Mr. Jewell was a member of the Oddfellows Order and the Masonic Lodge. He is survived
by his widow and two sisters, Miss Harriett Jewel of Adolphustown and Mrs.
George Vandewater of Ohio. His only child,
Willis died when a young boy. |

In Hallowell, on
Tuesday the 17th
inst., Flora Hellen, wife of Joseph Johnson and daughter of the
Rev. George Sills of Fredericksburgh, aged 22 years, the 2nd of September
next. Died - In
Hallowell, on Tuesday, the 17th instant, Flora Helen, wife of Mr. Joseph
Johnson, and
daughter of the Rev. George Sills of Fredericksburgh, aged 22 years the 2nd
of September next. The subject of this
memoir was awakened to her lost estate, at the first Camp Meeting held in
Adolphustown; and in a prayer meeting
a few days after, while pleading with God in prayer of the blessing of
pardon, God in mercy, spoke peace to her soul. She immediately connected herself with the
Methodist Episcopal Church, and has since that period given satisfactory
evidence of the genuineness of her character.
She has found through all the vicissitudes of this life, the Religion
of Jesus Christ to be her support and comfort - and that God who had
supported her in the hour of trial, difficulty and affliction, did not
forsake her in the hour of death. When
reduced by affliction and approaching the verge of Eternity, the triumphs of
Christianity shone in all their splendor. She experienced and enjoyed the faith and
patience of the saints. - could talk of death and Eternity with the
confidence of an apostle, when he said, "I have a desire to depart, I
have fought the good fight." A
few hours previous to her departure, she called to her bed side, a neighbor
for whom she felt much esteem, and after exhorting him to seek the Lord, she
asked him, "now neighbor S---- will you set out and serve the
Lord?" Upon his answering in the
affirmative, she said, "One thing more," "will you pray in your
family?" Upon his hesitating to
comply with her request, she earnestly repeated the solicitation, and
appeared unwilling to leave him without a positive answer. He at length replied that he would, upon
which, with a voice that astonished all present, she cried out, "Glory,
glory, glory."
She then gave directions respecting her funeral, and observing her
friends weeping, she said, "weep not for me, for I am going to
glory." She requested them to lay
her out plain and decent, and not to shed a tear at her bed side, or at the
grave; she then requested all present to pray and praise God, "bid all
my friends farewell,"
said she, "and tell
my youngest brother to set out and prepare to meet me in glory." A few moments before she expired, she said,
"lay me straight, I am going to Glory," and then without a sigh,
struggle, or groan, fell asleep in her blessed Redeemer. A funeral
discourse on this solemn and interesting occasion, was preached by the Rev.
T. Bevitt, from Revelation 14th chap. 13th verse,
"And I heard a voice from Heaven saying unto me, write, blessed are the
dead which die in the Lord, from Henceforth, Yea, saith
the spirit that they may rest from their labours and their works shall follow
them" a text which she selected for that purpose. The writer of
this memoir, is well aware of his inability to do justice to the deceased, or
her surviving friends, Not being present at her death, and having collected a
few only of her dying expressions, he is obliged to leave out many, which was
truly interesting and encouraging, and highly characteristic of the
blessedness of her state. Here is
sufficient, however, for him to say, let the Sceptic
doubt, and let the Infidel mock, but let me "die the death of the
righteous, and let my last end be like his." P.V.E. Hallowell, July 20, 1832. |

JOHNSON – At
Adolphustown, on Sunday, Nov 5, Helen Catherine Johnson, aged 48 years and 11
months. A very sad event
occurred at the home of the late Thomas Trumpour, Adolphustown, Nov. 5th, when his only daughter Helen, wife of
J. Johnson, departed this life on her journey to the better land. She had been suffering for some time with
cancer in the stomach, and finally, she whom we had learned to love for her
patient and pure life, was called to her final rest on Sunday evening Nov. 5th
at 9 o’clock. The deceased was one of
our best known and respected citizens.
She enjoyed a large circle of acquaintances and she was loved and held
in the highest esteem by all who knew her.
The removal of such a life from our midst leaves a vacancy and a
shadow that is deeply realized by her many friends in this community, but
while we mourn the loss we have sustained, we humbly submit to the will of
our Father, who has taken her away.
Our loss is her gain, for a beautiful life never ends in death. Her life’s work is done, she has passed to
her final rest and while tender memories of her virtues linger, we trust that
the star that is gone, the light of whose going makes our night, makes
somewhere else a day for her. The funeral was held at the U.E.L. Episcopal
church, where a very impressive service was conducted by the Rev. Canon
Roberts. A large procession of
relatives and friends escorted the remains to the church after which the
remains were taken to Napanee and placed in the vault. The people of this place and vicinity
extend to the bereaved family their deepest sympathy in this their sad hour
of affliction. While their home is
made desolate by the shadow of death, our community has been deprived of a
most faithful friend and an honest Christian worker. |

WILLIAM H.
JOHNSTON - Was born in Peel township, county of Wellington, in the year 1852,
and died at his home on June 4th, 1885. He was converted when a youth of seventeen
or eighteen, from which event he lived a devoted and consistent life until
the Lord took him.
About the latter part of the winter of 1884, during a revival service
held by Revs. Sherlock and Kennedy, he sought and found the blessing of
perfect love; he consecrated his all fully to the Lord and entered into the
rest of faith. From that point his
Christian character was marked by a steady and rapid development, as a result
of his devotion to God and zeal for his glory. He found a helpmeet in his Christian life
and work in one Miss E. Watson, to whom he was united in marriage on July 9th,
1884, and who is now so shortly called upon to mourn their separation. But it is only for a time. She is being comforted by divine grace and
a hope of heaven. Brother Johnston was
one of our most promising men. Rising
rapidly in the esteem and confidence of his brethren, and being a man of
rather more than ordinary ability, he was appointed to several positions of
usefulness and responsibility, the last of which was a place on the local
preachers’ plan by the Official Board at its last meeting before he
died. The Church anticipated many
years of useful service from him, but her great Head has ordered it
otherwise. We bow in submission and
say, “Thy will be done.” [signed] T. R. Fydell |

Extract of a
letter, dated Ernest Town, Wednesday morning, 2 o’clock, Feb. 17th,
1819 Mr. James W.
Jones expected to have been in town on Saturday, but repeated disappointments
prevented him. Last night he went up
to the widow Williams’s (about 3 miles above the
village) intending to remain there until the morning, then to take a horse
from thence and go down to Kingston.
About 12 o’clock, I was waked by shrieks of some
one passing my window, calling to me something (I know not what) about
fire. As I opened my eyes, I perceived
the room brightly lighted, and, at first, thought it must be our own house
enveloped in flame. I sprang from bed,
and saw, from the window, Mr. Jones’s house covered with sheets of fire. The same moment, his daughter, Julia (about
12 years of age) opened the kitchen door, and told us her mother was in the
house. We ran over. The front part of
the house shewed no fire. Mr. Wilcox caught a board, burst open the door,
and stepped to enter, when the upper floor came down with a dreadful crash,
and a volume of smoke and flame, bursting out, drove him back. The building was now enclosed in an awful
conflagration, and we were forced to stand by, and gaze on the scene, silent,
awe-struck and inactive. Julia says, they went to bed about 9 o’clock. She and a little sister, a year or two old,
slept with her mother, in the bed room at the end of the front room. Her mother put two or three green sticks
and some kindling wood into the stove.
She was waked by her mother, standing by the bed side, screaming to
her; pointing to the kitchen filled with flame, and exclaiming, “see the fire!” She
opened the kitchen door, to try if she could get to her little daughters in
the other bed room; and, at the same time, told Julia to spring out of the
window, which she did. She saw her
mother shut the kitchen door, and thinks she threw something over the window,
as if to keep the air from drawing through.
But perhaps it was smoke. At
all events, she turned to take the child from the bed. Julia ran round to the window of the room,
where her other two sisters slept, but the flame prevented her from entering
or looking in; and when she returned to the front window, she could see nothing
of her mother. We can now
distinguish Mrs. Jones’s remains lying near where the bed stood; but have not yet
attempted to remove them. The scene is
dreadful. I never witnessed any event,
which cast so heavy a gloom over my feelings. |

Obituary
- Another of the old landmarks has been removed from the Anderson Methodist
church, Bay Circuit, in the death on Wednesday, February 19th, 1913, of Mr.
James Joyce. He was born June 10th, 1827, about one mile east of this late
home where he came with his parents when about eight years old. His father
and mother came from County Down, Ireland, about the year 1820. A much prized
heirloom in possession of Mr. J.M. Joyce, son of deceased, is a certificate
of transfer of membership from L.O.L. of County Down, Ireland, No. 65, dated
1820, showing he was a member of the Orange Order with the degree of Royal
Arch Purple Marksman and signed by Joseph Johnston, Master and Thos. Hughs, Secretary. Deceased was also for many years a
member of the Order, showing the family have for a long time been identified
with Orangeism. He was
in his eighty-sixth year, and enjoying his usual good health until a few days
before death, when he took la grippe, which rapidly developed pneumonia. His
physician, Dr. Vrooman, was called, but from the first held out little hope
of his recovery. Mr. Joyce was a loyal citizen, in politics, a Conservative,
and interested in all matters concerning the public good. An upright man,
possessed of a kindly winning disposition, he won and held the confidence of
both old and young. He was a consistent member and a liberal supporter of the
Methodist church, loyal to his pastor, and ready to assist any worthy social
or church enterprise. He was converted early in life, had a deep reverence
for the House of God, was regular in attendance at all its services, and
showed that the Spirit of the Master had become deeply wrought in his
character. He had been for many years Treasurer of the Trustee Board of
Anderson church, and a member of the Quarterly Board of the Bay Circuit.
During his last illness he expressed to his Pastor his abiding faith in God
and trust in his Saviour. He retained consciousness until the last, and a few
minutes before death, looking up, he seemed to see his Saviour coming, and raised
his hands as if trying to go to meet Him. He was a
kind and indulgent father, a loving husband, and as the responsible head of
his home, he tried to order his house after God's plan. Firm but kind with
his children, they will surely rise up and call him blessed. His wife
predeceased him about six years, and his four sons and three daughters
survive. The
funeral took place on Saturday, Feb. 22nd, leaving his late residence at 1
p.m., service in Anderson Methodist church. His Pastor, Rev. Geo. Nickle, preached from the text Eccl. 7:1 "A good
name is better than precious ointment, and the day of death than the day of
one's birth." Revds. J.P. Wilson, Chairman of the District, J.W. Down,
Selby, and W.D.P. Wilson, Wilton, were present, and spoke words of high
praise and personal appreciation of the deceased. The remains were placed in
the vault at Morven cemetery. |

Obituary
- Miss Marjorie Joyce On
Friday afternoon last the funeral service of the late Marjorie Joyce called
forth warmest expressions of sincerest sympathy and regret and floral
offerings of great beauty and profusion testified to the large circle that
shared a common sorrow. Marjorie
was born in North Fredericksburgh, more than twenty years ago. Later,
sojourning in Napanee, she studied in the Collegiate, and was greatly beloved
for her genial social qualities. She delighted to help in the activities of
Grace church, of which she was a member. She joined in the work of the Choir,
and gladly assisted in whatever work was in the interest of the children and
young people. In her
second year of energetic training at the Rochester Homeopathic Hospital, she
came home on leave. Her fellow workers write much about her ability, and
acceptability. The rest cure not proving immediately effective, she spent a
short time in the Mowat Hospital at Kingston. For the last eight months she
dwelt happily with her father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. J.M. Joyce, in a beautiful, new
cottage, among the fragrant pines at Bancroft. Her sister, Jessie, came home,
and gladly gave unremitting care. On the evening of Tuesday, March 31st, the
long, patient fight came to an end that was peace. The
brothers, Sheldon and Arthur, returned from Rochester, and the remains were
brought from Bancroft. At the funeral service, held at the home, on Robert
St., on Friday, April 3rd, by request Mr. Wiseman and Miss Green sang
"When Night is Near". The Pastor, Rev. A.J. Terrill, spoke
feelingly of the zest of living, of the considerateness of others, and the
high courage that continued to the earthly end, and in which she showed
Christian fortitude. The remains were laid to rest in Riverside cemetery. The
young people of the community, by whom she has been much respected, have been
deeply moved by this decease. Especial sympathy is felt for the family
because of the recent death of Mrs. Baird, the mother of Mrs. Joyce. |

Joyce, Marjorie Jane (nee Baird) |
Gone to
Rest The
subject of this sketch, Marjorie Jane Baird, the beloved wife of James Joyce,
of North Fredericksburgh, departed this life in great peace, on Sunday March
10th, 1907. Her ancestors were numbered among the pioneers of this old
historic County, her father having been Samuel Baird, and her revered
mother's maiden name was Cynthia Shibley, both of whom have long since
crossed the bourne. The deceased was born in
Ernesttown, near the village of Bath, in the year 1829, and had she lived
sixteen days longer she would have attained her 78th year. She was married to
her now sorrowing husband on April 2d, 1850. So they lived in happy wedded
life for nearly 57 years. Their union was blessed with four sons and three
daughters who all survive and rise up to call their sainted mother blessed.
The honored sons are Samuel James, William, John M. and Sheldon. the devoted daughters are Mrs. Rev. T.H. Richard, Mrs.
T.A. Percy, who has been for some years a widow, and Mrs. Cartwright Hawley.
Our translated friend was converted to God in early life under the ministry
of Rev. Sheldon Young of sacred memory. She united in fellowship with the
M.E. church shortly after her conversion, and was a loyal and devoted member
at the Anderson appointment on the Bay circuit, when her Lord and Master
said, "It is enough, come up higher." There never was any special
enterprise to be promoted in the church of her choice, in which she did not
have a hand, and the various means of grace were to her a constant delight.
She was visited with a slight stroke some four years ago, from the effects of
which she never recovered. About mid-summer she was taken worse and gradually
wasted away until she quietly fell asleep in Jesus, on the last hour of the
holy Sabbath the day she loved so well. She has gone to be where her much
loved Sabbath days will never end. The funeral which took place on Wednesday,
March 13th, was large and representative. A very touching and effective
memorial service was held in the Anderson Methodist church at 1.30 p.m. The
church was beautifully draped and decorated, the floral display being very
fine. Her pastor, Rev. J.W. Down, preached a sermon of great pathos and
power, from the text; "If a man die shall he live
again; all the days of my appointed time will I wait until my change
comes." Her remains will rest in the City of the silent at Morven, until
she has a part in the first resurrection. |

Obituary
- Mr. Sheldon Young Joyce Sheldon
Y. Joyce, for many years a resident of Napanee, passed away Tuesday evening, November
27th, 1928, at his late residence, corner of Bridge and Adelphi Streets. His
death was a great shock to all. Mr.
Joyce was at active business as usual on the Saturday immediately preceding
his death, but not feeling well and it may be that he did not realize how
serious his condition was. He enjoyed the best of health during his life
until a few months ago after which he complained of not feeling as well as
usual. He did
not know the seriousness of his condition until Sunday afternoon, November 25th,
when he obtained medical advice. A sudden turn for the worse took place
Monday evening, and he rapidly grew weaker and passed away Tuesday evening at
8.30 o'clock. Mr.
Sheldon Y. Joyce was the youngest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. James Joyce,
and was born on May 30th, 1861, in North Fredericksburgh on the old
homestead, near the Anderson Church, and he could well remember when that
church was built. He spent his boyhood days in that neighbourhood and
vicinity. Mr.
Joyce leaves to mourn his loss his widow, one daughter, and four sons, Mrs.
Arnold W. Wylie, of Brampton; Mrs. Percy S. Joyce, of Hamilton; Mr. Zina J.
Joyce and Mr. C. Dwight Joyce, of Toronto, and Mr. Sperry C. Joyce, of St.
Mary's and five grandchildren; also one sister and two brothers; Mrs.
Cartwright Hawley, Mr. William Joyce and Mr. John M. Joyce, all of Napanee. Mr.
Sheldon Y. Joyce was a member of the United Church, and a Conservative in his
politics. He was highly respected in the community, and his passing will be
severely felt by all. The
funeral was held at his late residence, on Friday afternoon at 2.30 o'clock,
and was conducted
by Rev. Harry Pawson, of Trinity United Church. He was laid to rest in
Riverside cemetery, by his four sons, son-in-law and brother. The
floral tributes from relatives and friends were lovely and numerous. |

WILLIAM JOYCE
- After an illness of a few days William Joyce, of Adolphustown, passed away
at 6 o'clock, Wednesday evening, 25th March, from heart trouble and
pneumonia. Drs. Young and Northmore attended him
and did all that could be done to arrest the disease, but he gradually grew
worse, and on the evening of the 6th day of his illness he passed into the
"beautiful beyond." A good man has gone; gone out to come in no
more forever, and those endeared by kindred ties are called upon to mourn
over and wonder at the dispensation of providence, which has left an aching
void to be filled only by sweet thoughts and living remembrances of him they
called husband, father and friend. The deceased was a life-long Orangeman, 57
years of age, and a useful and consistent member of the Methodist church. He
leaves a wife and three daughters, who have the sympathy of the entire
community in this the hour of their great bereavement. The funeral, which
took place on Friday, was conducted by Rev. Mr. Shorey, and was largely

Obituary - The
subject of this sketch, the late Mrs. Nelson Keech, nee Miss Victoria Joyce,
was born March 1st, 1839, and entered into rest on Sunday, March 1st, 1914,
being just 75 years of age. Her father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. Valentine
Joyce, of Armah, Ireland, with three children, came
to Canada about 1828. They settled in North Fredericksburgh and spent the
remainder of life in that township, on the farm now occupied by their son,
Mr. John Joyce. Nine more children were born in this country, one of whom was
the subject of this memoir. Forty-five years ago she married her now
sorrowing husband. Three sons, Melvin and Edwin, at home; James H., of North
Fredericksburgh and Mrs. Charles Lowry, Newburgh, survive to mourn the loss
of a kind and loving mother who sought to train her family up in the fear of
the Lord. She was converted to God in early life, joined the Bethany
Methodist church and has been a faithful attendant at the church services,
especially enjoying the class and fellowship meetings, and always ready to
help in any enterprise of the church. A good neighbor, a faithful wife, a
kind mother. When quite young she won a small Bible as a prize given by the
late Rev. Eli Woodcock to the child who learned the greatest number of Bible
verses. To the last she highly prized this little token. Our departed sister
was in her usual health, and in the early hours of the morning she awoke her
sons and complained of a difficulty in breathing, which soon became
distressing The doctor was at once called by phone, but in less than half an
hour she passed away reclining in the arms of her son, Melvin. Her body was
placed in the vault, to be later interred in the Bethany graveyard. Owing to
a heavy snow storm, which blocked the roads, the funeral service was
postponed until Sunday, March 8th, when the pastor, Rev. Geo. Nickle, conducted the service in Bethany Church. His text
was taken from 1. John 4:8 and John 13-1. A large number of friends were
present to express their sympathy with the family. |

Kennedy, Dr.
Roderick |
On March 15th,
1911, Dr. Roderick Kennedy, for many years a useful and highly respected
citizen of Bath, passed peacefully away, in the General Hospital, Kingston.
He was born at Cumberland House, on the Saskatchewan River, July 8th
1822 and was therefore in his 89th year. He was the youngest son of Alexander
Kennedy, Chief Factor of the Hudson Bay Company, at Cumberland House. His
brother, John was surgeon of the Hudson Bay Company at Fort Simpson on the
Pacific Coast and represented the District of Nanaimo, in the first
Parliament of British Columbia when Sir James Douglas was Governor. His
brother, William, was a daring and skilful navigator in the northern seas. In
1854, when Lady Franklin fitted out an expedition to go in search of her
husband, Sir John, she selected Captain William Kennedy to command the
expedition in the ship Prince Albert. He spent the winters of 1854-5 in the
Arctic Seas, and always believed that the expedition would have been
successful in finding what became of Sir John Franklin and his comrades, but
for the sad loss of Lieutenant Belat, who commanded
the other ship, in an ice crevass. A third brother,
George, carried on business for a number of years in the early days in
Kingston. Roderick, the
subject of our sketch was sent when a boy to St. John's School at Fort Garry,
on the Red River, now Winnipeg, where he received his early education. His
father having died about this time, Sire George Simpson, Governor of the
Company, became his friend and adviser. When fourteen
years of age he left the school at Fort Garry with a good elementary
education received from those pioneer missionaries and teachers, whose
memories he always cherished in grateful remembrance and journeyed to Hudson
Bay from which place he took ship to London and then to the Orkney Islands.
Here he spent a year of more at St. Margaret's Hope, the old home of his
ancestors. He then went to Aberdeen, where he attended St. Andrew's College,
preparing for his chosen profession. In 1839 he entered the Royal College of
Physicians and Surgeons, Edinburgh, and after a distinguished course,
graduated in 1844 L.R.C.P.S. Edin. In the same year
Sir George Simpson appointed him Surgeon of the Hudson Bay Company at Moose
Factory, on James Bay. Arriving in Montreal he started from Lachine early in
the winter of 1844-5 with a Company of voyagers and on snow shoes journeyed
all the way via Bytown to Moose Factory. Here he spent five years in the
discharge of the duties of his office. In 1847 he married Mary, daughter of
Governor McTavish, of the Hudson Bay Company, and widow of the late George
Ross, Factor of the Hudson Bay Company at Moose Factory. Dr. Kennedy, in
addition to his large practice, filled several positions of honor and trust.
He was for several years Professor of Anatomy in the Royal College of
Physicians and Surgeons, Kingston. He was a member of the Bath School Board
and also of the Municipal and County Council. He was identified with the
Reform party in politics, and in religion was a member of the Anglican
Church. Mrs. Kennedy
died in 1886. She bore two sons and a daughter to the doctor. The daughter
died in infancy. The sons are Dr. Alexander, of Amherst Island, and Roderick,
Professor of Music. Dr. Kennedy
married Miss Mary Walkem, of Kingston, who also
predeceased him. The Rev. Alexander Howard Kennedy, B.A., of Sommerville, near Boston, and Mr. Roderick Kennedy, of
Portland, are sons of Dr. Alexander, who married Miss Howard, of Bath. She
died a few years ago. |

hundreds of residents of that section were numbered among his pupils during
the many years which he followed this profession. He was well versed in the
works of the master composers and his services were often sought for concerts
or other gatherings. Of late years he has lived retired and the illness which
culminate din his death was of long duration. He was born at
Bath, a son of the late Dr. R. Kennedy, a native of the Hudson Bay territory
and his wife, Mary McTavish, also a descendant of early explorers in the
Canadian Northwest. A brother, Dr. A.H. Kennedy, predeceased Roderick some

DEATH'S HARVEST
- ANDREW A. KERR - Sunday morning, Nov. 17th 1901, Andrew A. Kerr, one of our
esteemed citizens, died of Chronic Bright's disease at his late residence in
North Marysburgh. Though a sufferer from the disease for about ten years he
was able to manage his business, except for the last few months, when
confined to his house the rapid change in his condition gave evidence that
the end was not far distant. His illness and death were the cause of deep
regret among his friends, many of whom cherished fond hopes of his recovery
during several years after the symptoms of the disease first appeared.
Deceased was the eldest son of Wm. Kerr, Esq., who still survives him, and
Catherine McDonnell, the other surviving members being J. J. Kerr, merchant, London;
Mrs. David, Picton; Mrs. Wright, Conway. He was born in North Marysburgh 47
years ago, received a liberal education at the public school, managed the
homestead for a number of years, when he disposed of the farm and became a
general dealer in fruit, stock, etc., with considerable success. The
testimony of all who had business with or knew him, is that he was a man of
ability, honor and strict integrity, a quiet, peace-loving neighbor, a
dutiful son, loving husband and father, a consistent member of the church.
Faithful and devoted in his services at St. John's Anglican Church, having
filled each place of official honor. His presence and help will be greatly
missed by the congregation. The funeral services were conducted at St. John's
Church, by the Rev. Canon Loucks, assisted by the pastor. Rev. Mr. Irvine;
the Canon delivering an able and appropriate sermon, full of sympathy and
consolation for the bereaved family and friends. The A.O.U.W. and Foresters
Orders, of which he was a member, having been Financial Secretary of Court,
Waupoos, since its charter, in procession accompanied the funeral cortege to
the Church, thence to the Cemetery, and after the beautiful church burial
service was read by Rev. Canon Loucks, the burial service and rites of the orders
at the grave were conducted by the proper officers and brethren. Deceased
leaves a widow and four daughters who have the sympathy of their many friends
in this time of trial and bereavement. |

Kimmerly, John |
An Old Pioneer
Gone There died at
his residence at Napanee, on Sunday, Mr. John Kimmerly, aged 91 years and 6
months. Mr. Kimmerly was a son of a U.E. Loyalist and was born on the banks of
the Napanee River in 1788, and was among the first white children born in
that section of country. He has always resided in nearly the same locality,
cheerfully enduring all the privations and hardships of pioneer life. In the
war of 1812-15 he bore arms in behalf of his country and was a captain of the
militia. He drew a pension as one of the veterans. He was a man of very
cheerful and charitable disposition and temperate habits, and until within a
few hours of his death continued to go about cheerful and in good health. He
did not complain of one hour's pain. On Saturday he showed signs of faintness
and laid down, but continued to converse, in full
possession of his senses, until within a few minutes of his end. In regard to
his death it may be merely said "the weary wheels of life stood
still." |

OBITUARY -
Arthur Ross King It has been a
long time since such widespread sorrow has been so keenly felt and expressed as
that caused by the death of the late Arthur Ross King, eldest son of Mr. and
Mrs. Robert King on Wednesday Sept. 1st, 1915. He had been engaged all summer drawing milk
from his home at Fifth Lake to Enterprise cheese factory. And on Wednesday morning while going down a
hill near Mrs. J. Burgess’ residence, about two miles north of Enterprise,
some part of the harness broke, and in trying to save his load of milk, he
lost his ballance and fell under the horses feet. He was
picked up by friends near by and was taken in Mrs.
Burgess’ home, and Dr. Horton was summoned immediately. But it was learned that he had sustained
injuries from which he could not recover, and he passed peacefully away at
5:30 p.m. The deceased was in his 27th
year. His pleasant smile and jolly
jokes were always heard on every side when he was present. He was liked by the old as well as the
young and was held in the highest respect by all. He was always on hand to do all he could in
time of need. This was one of the
saddest funerals that moved out from behind the hills in this locality in
many years and will long be remembered.
Gone, Arthur, but not forgotten.
Your good works and days of toil, your loving, cheery words cannot
leave us, although you are not with us.
Our heartfelt sympathy goes out to the much bereaved parents, brothers
and sisters, and we trust that God will constantly visit them now while their
cup of sorrow is running over, and comfort them in their hour of need. The remains were followed by a large
concourse of friends to the Methodist Church at Fifth Lake, on Friday, where
a very impressive sermon was preached by Rev. Mr. Kemp, taking for his text
John 11:35 “Jesus wept” The remains were afterwards placed in the
cemetery there. Deceased was a member
of the L.O.L., Enterprise, and was buried under that Order. |

Kirkpatrick, George
Airey |
THE LATE SIR
GEORGE AIREY KIRKPATRICK – Sir George Airey
Kirkpatrick was born in Kingston, Ont., 13th
September, 1841 and was the fourth son of the late Thos. Kirkpatrick. Q.C.,
who came from Coolmine. County Dublin, Ireland.
Mr. Kirkpatrick received part of his education at the Grammar School,
Kingston, and the High School, St. Johns, P.Q.; after which he was sent to
Trinity College, Dublin, where he graduated with high honours, receiving the
degrees of B.A. and L.L. B.; he also graduated as moderator and silver medallist for law, literature and political economy. Returning home, he entered his father’s
office, and there applied himself to a diligent study of the law, and was
called to the bar of Upper Canada and was appointed Queen’s Counsel on the 11th
October, 1880. He received from his
alma mater, in June, 1884, the degree of L.L.D. In military affairs, Mr. Kirkpatrick had
always taken an active part, entering as a private during the Trent affair,
and rose step by step in the ranks until he reached the highest command, that
of Lieut.-Colonel. He went again into
active service in the town of Cornwall, during the Fenian invasion, and acted
during that period as adjutant to the 14th P.W.O. Battalion. He was
elected President of the Dominion Rifle Association, and also commanded the
Wimbledon Rifle team in 1876. In
commercial life Mr. Kirkpatrick had always had the advancement of his native
city at heart, and had been one of the foremost in founding several of its
most important works. A large number
of his friends, perceiving his marked abilities and being anxious that they
should be employed for the benefit of his country in some legislative sphere,
waited upon him and pressed upon him to allow himself to be put in nomination
for the seat in the House of Commons made vacant by the death of his
father. This was in the year 1870, and
Mr. Kirkpatrick’s father had for many years represented Frontenac. Mr. Kirkpatrick was returned, and the
electorate which had felt such confidence in their young representative were soon convinced that their forecasting had been
correct, for he at once manifested the same excellent intellectual qualities
in public which he had shown in his private affairs. Whenever he arose in the House it was for
the purpose of accomplishing something important, and when he spoke attention
was given to him. His manner was never
repellent, but always gathered support, his bearing being dignified, kindly,
but firm and uncompromising. Soon men
about the Treasury benches began to say one to another that Mr. Kirkpatrick’s
day for some positioning the Government was drawing near. Meanwhile he had given his time to
legislative measures, and it was he who introduced the measure which aimed at
securing a lien for seamen’s wages on vessels plying on inland waters. Year
after year he introduced his measure, until eventually it found expression in
Mr. Blake’s Maritime court Act for Ontario.
How important Mr. Kirkpatrick’s measure was is now apparent to the
public, and sailors on inland seas regarded him justly as their
benefactor. As already stated, Mr.
Kirkpatrick was first returned to the House of commons for Frontenac in
1870. At the general elections of
1872, he was returned by acclamation; again returned in 1874; in 1878, and by
acclamation at the general election, which followed. Perceiving his courtesy, dignity and
address and his acute knowledge of Parliamentary procedure, he was elected
Speaker on the 8th of February, 1883. As a Speaker he was dignified, impartial
and effective; and always held the reins of the House with a firm hand. He was married first on the 25th
of October, 1865 to Miss Frances Jane, daughter of the late Hon. John
Macaulay. She died on the 20th
of January, 1877. He married again on
the 26th of September, 1883, Miss Isabel Louisa, youngest daughter
of the Hon. Sir David L. Macpherson, Senator.
In politics, Mr. Kirkpatrick was always a Liberal-Conservative. In religion he was a member of the Church
of England. Mr. Kirkpatrick sat in the
House of Commons until 1892, being Speaker until 1887. In 1892, his seat was rendered vacant by
his accepting the office of Lieutenant-Governor of Ontario, upon the death of
Sir Alex Campbell. He had four sons
and one daughter by his first wife, and one son by his second wife – all
living. Mr. Kirkpatrick left Toronto
for England on the 16th of November, 1896. [**Clipping is cut off **] |

Kyes, Lizzie
R. (nee
Perry) |
Born At Violet in
1860, Dies in U.S. - Mrs. Lizzie R. Kyes, a native of this area, died October 1 in Riverside,
California, a week after reaching her 100th birthday. She was born at
Violet where her United Empire Loyalist parents lived on a Crown grant. At her birth there was a mill on the farm
whose foundations still exist. She was
the former Eliza Perry and her father, Daniel, was a cousin of the American
naval hero, Commodore Oliver H. Perry.
Her mother’s maiden name was Comer. Mrs. Kyes moved to Riverside from Kansas in 1879, making the
transcontinental trip by train and the last lap of the journey by
stagecoach. At that time she had a
sister, Mrs. M. B. VanFleet, whose husband was the
first Wells Fargo agent in Riverside. Born on
September 25, 1860, Mrs. Kyes was married Christmas
Day, 1879, to H. P. Kyes, an orange grower, and was
active in the community life of Riverside for 81 years. On her 100th
birthday she received congratulations from President Eisenhower. When Grandma Moses celebrated her 100th
birthday, Mrs. Kyes sent her congratulations and
received a reply, while she was in hospital.
Among the survivors is a daughter, Vera B. Kyes,
an artist, who lived with her mother. Mrs. Kyes was a charter member of the women’s Christian
Temperance Union and belonged to Grace Methodist Church. For 10 years every Christmas she used to
collect and repair dolls and send them to children
in the mountains of Kentucky. One year
she sent 500. For many of these
youngsters they were the only dolls they ever saw. She began this hobby in 1941 and in later
years sent crocheted baby jackets and booties to Kentucky. Sixty years ago
Mrs. Kyes and her daughter visited Mrs. Kyes’ sister, Mrs Ryerson
Gardiner, the former Mercy Perry, at Violet. |
