At Buffalo N.Y. on Tuesday, Dec 8th, 1914, Mrs. Freeman Lane, aged 68 years.

 

Another of the former residents of Napanee has added her name to the large roll of those who have passed from these to everlasting habitations.  Mrs. Sarah E. Lane, wife and widow of Freeman Lane, also formerly of this town, died in Buffalo, N.Y., on Tuesday, the 8th of December.  She was for many years an active and enthusiastic member of the Western Methodist Church (now Grace Church), never grudging any personal effort to forward the interests and the spiritual enterprises of that church body, and yet always ready to lend a helping hand to the advancement of the cause of the Kingdom of God under whatsoever auspices the appeal came.  She was a faithful participant in all good works and was above all a good mother, who administered unto her children with truest fidelity, the higher things of the spirit.  And now that she has fought the good fight and finished the course and kept the faith, there is laid up for her the crown of righteousness, and unto her children there remains the power of her just life and the memory of a faith unfailing and undimmed to guide their way.  She was predeceased by her husband about two years ago and by her brother, Thomas A. Huffman, about a year ago.  There remain to mourn her loss two sons, Dr. M. S. Lane of Buffalo, N.Y. and Prof. Wilmot B. Lane, of Victoria College, University of Toronto, Toronto, Canada.

(nee Duncan)

 

Death of Mrs. E. S. Lapum.

Another of the older generation and a life long resident of our town has passed away, in the person of Mrs. E. S. Lapum, who died very unexpectedly on the early morning of January 25th, 1921.  Her maiden name was Margaret Lavina Duncan, and she was born in the Township of Fredericksburgh, just east of the town, on February 14th, 1851, but her family moved into Napanee when she was yet a little girl.  Besides her husband, she leaves two sons, Fred S., of Mexico City, and Hartley, of Napanee, and one sister, Mrs. W. A. Steacy.  Mrs. Lapum had not been in good health for the past ten years of more, but she bore any troubles she may have had as only one whose ideas were all the highest and who lived up to them, could bear the.  Her immediate relatives have our sincere sympathy, in the loss of one who was loved by those who knew her well enough and who was respected by everyone who knew her at all.  The funeral, which was a large and representative one, was held in Trinity Church at 2.30 p.m. on Thursday, January 27th.

He was a very active member and regular attendant of Grace United Church and for some time had been leader of the Helping Hand Bible Class.  He took a great interest in the Lennox and Addington Poultry Association, of which he had recently been the president.

Mr. Lasher was of a very genial disposition and had a great many friends who regret his sudden death.

He is survived by his wife, formerly Bertha Maud Huffman, and six children, Harold and Grace (Mrs. W. Cronk) Napanee, Florence, Ross and Ray at home, and Helen (Mrs. Wilfred Lake), Morven.  He also leaves three sisters, Mrs. Ed McCaugherty, North Fredericksburgh, Mrs. Archie Pybus, Strathcona, and Miss Gertrude Lasher, at home.

Lawrence,

Matilda

(nee Rickenbrode)

 

MRS. J. LAWRENCE -

Whose maiden name was Matilda Rickenbrode, was born in the township of Washington, Clarion Co., Pa., in the year 1849 and died in Harwich, county of Kent, July 16th, 1886. 

Sister Lawrence was converted to God when fifteen years of age.   Being born of pious and devoted parents, her young feet were early taught to tread in the paths of righteousness.  She having known the Scriptures from her youth, and having more than an ordinary amiable disposition the Holy Ghost found in her heart a beautiful temple for his abiding home;  her life beautifully illustrating the words of the Master, “I am the vine, ye are the branches; he that abideth in me and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit.”  The fruit of her Christian life was seen in the home, where she ruled with firmness and love.  Her smiles seemed bathed in sweetness and light and her laughter chastened by grace more musical that the rippling brook.  She was a “mother”. The Church to her mind was the intermediate state between earth and heaven.  The language of her heart was “One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after, that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life.”  During her long and painful affliction she was often heard to say, “My soul longeth, yea even fainteth, for the courts of the Lord.  My heart and my flesh crieth out for the living God.”  When so weakened by disease that she could no longer take her place in the sanctuary she committed her all to the ever living One, who kept her by his mighty power through the fiery furnace through which she was called to pass.  When in the valley she asked the writer to sing.  I said, “What shall I sing?”  “Sing:  “Am I a soldier of the Cross, A follower of the Lamb?”

Thus died one of God’s elect and most precious jewels, in hope of a glorious immortality.  She left behind, a kind husband and five dear children, who deeply feel their loss.  Her last remains were followed by a large concourse of people to the Methodist church in the town of Blenheim, where an appropriate service was held, and thence to the evergreen cemetery where she was laid away in the hope of a glorious resurrection.     J. LIVINGSTONE

(nee Baker)

 

 

OBITUARY -

Mrs. J. S. Lochhead, the subject of this brief sketch, formerly Miss Eliza Ann Baker, was born in Camden on June 3d 1833 and passed to her reward on Wednesday, April 8th, 1908.  She was of U. E. Descent.  When seventeen years of age the change took place which altered the whole current of her life and made her what her life proved to be, a benediction to her home and a blessing to the community.  Our departed sister was a consistent and devoted member of the Methodist church for fifty-seven years and a lover of the old fashioned class and prayer meetings.

On Sept 30th 1857, she was united in marriage to James S. Lochhead, of Centreville, where she resided the remainder of her life.  The fruits of her godly life were best seen in her home, where for long years, she presided with wisdom, tact and self-poise.  Her strong common sense and true maternal instincts under the direction and control of the divine spirit, made her a centre of influence, not only in her own family but in the  church, the village and the community at large, where she was a veritable tower of strength in any time of trouble.

Her death came unexpectedly.  Going out to mail a letter to one of her children, she slipped and fell, becoming unconscious almost immediately.  She remained in that comatose state till evening, when she was not for God took her. 

The funeral services were conducted at the house by her pastor, Rev. R. Allin and were very impressive.  What a contrast there was between this gathering and the one on Sept 30th of last year, when she and her husband celebrated their golden wedding.

Her husband, four daughters, Janet, at home, Mrs. T. C. Craighead and Clara, of Vancouver, and Laura, of Peterborough, and three sons, Dr. J. A. of Hamilton;  J. Mortimer, at home, and William M.A., of Berlin, remain to mourn a keenly felt loss, but with a sure and certain hope of meeting on the other side of the river, where we shall see as we are seen and know as we are known.

RAILROAD CONDUCTOR MEETS HIS DEATH NEAR RICE’S – James Locke of Watertown Struck by Club Train, Dying on Way to Hospital – Watertown, Nov. 3 – Struck by the Club train within a few hundred yards of Rice’s this morning, James F. Locke, 31 years of age, a well-known railroad conductor, residing at No. 100 South Massey street, died while being hurried to the City Hospital a half hour later,  Mr. Locke is survived by a widow and two sisters, one residing in Ottawa, the other in the West.  Conductor Locke was born in Ottawa, but had resided here for the past twelve years.  Among railroad men he was regarded as one of the most careful in the company’s employ.  He left here this morning in charge of a work train  that took a switch at Rice’s to allow a double-header to pass it northbound.  The freight had passed and Conductor Locke, after throwing the switch, walked around the locomotive attached to his train and stepped directly in front of the Club train, southbound, on the third track.  The Club train was running perhaps thirty miles an hour, and hurled the man to what later resulted in his death.  Mr. Locke was placed in the caboose and hurried here in the hope that medical attendance might forestall death, but in vain.  Though awaiting word from the sister in the West, it is probable that the funeral will be held Saturday at the home of a sister-in-law, Mrs. James Hopper, No., 139 North Hamilton street.

 

OBITUARY – Funeral of James Locke – The funeral of James Locke, the conductor who died on the way to the hospital yesterday, after being struck by a train at Rices, will be held at the home of his brother-in-law James Hoppe, No. 139 North Hamilton street, Saturday morning at 8:15 and from St. Patrick’s church at 9:30.  Rev. P. J. Devlin will officiate in High Mass.  Interment will be made at Copenhagen.  The railroad company has given a special train for the use of the relatives, friends and railroad employees, and it will leave for Copenhagen at 10:30.  Mr. Locke is survived by a wife, Mrs. Maude Graham Locke and two sisters, Mrs. Ernest Baker of Ottawa, and Mrs. J. R. Murphy of Mitchell, S.D.  He was a member of the Railroad Order of Conductors and was popular among his fellow workmen, and has many friends in the city.  Coroner S.C. Hollins of Belleville viewed the remains at Payne & Burns’ undertaking parlors, and will hold an inquest at Adams tomorrow at 10 o’clock.  Dr. C. N. Bibbins acted as coroner’s physician, and gave as the cause of death, shock and internal hemorrhages, due to accident.

Drowned - 

On Wednesday afternoon last, Mr. Henry Loyst, aged 71 years, who resides on the shores of Hay bay, was engaged doing a small job for himself by the water’s edge, when he fell backward into the water.  In his fall he struck the back of his head on a stone, which probably stunned him, and he was drowned in about four feet of water.  He was subject to fits of dizziness, one of which, it is supposed, caused the fatal fall.
