DEATH OF D. H. WITMER

Another one of the older residents has departed for the other shore. Mrs. D. H. Witmer, on the evening of the 9th inst., departed this life, after only 2 days illness, aged 62 years, 1 month and 5 days. The deceased was the youngest daughter of the late Michael Fisher, who built "Fisher's' Mills" in 1844, coming there from Vaughan, where deceased was born. She was first married to the late Abram Witmer and lived for some time in Galt, but on marrying Mr. D. H. Witmer, who survives her, some twenty-six years ago, she removed to Hespeler, where she has resided ever since. The deceased could give some very interesting reminiscences of the early times in Waterloo and Hespelcr, and from her generous and kindly nature, made many friends. She was a great lover of flowers, and from her little conservatory many an occupant of a sick room was gladdened by the bouquets that were sent by her. She leaves no children.
