    The Late John Hardy

    Death has again visited the Winterbourne neighborhood and taken away one of its most highly respected and well known residents in the person of Mr. John Hardy, who passed away on Friday morning, December 13th, 1918. Deceased, who only a month previous was taken ill with inflammatory rheumatism, had reached the age of 64 years, 3 months and 11 days. He was an Elder in the Presbyterian Church for a number of years. His kindly greeting will be much missed in the community. He leaves his widow, two sons and two daughters: Wilbur, of Winterbourne, Arthur in France; Bessie at home, and Margaret, in Toronto, who have the deepest sympathy of all in their bereavement. The funeral was held on Sunday afternoon to the Presbyterian cemetery, and was largely attended, manifesting the esteem in which Mr. Hardy was held. Rev. Mr. Bruce conducted the services both at the house and grave. The pallbearers were: Messrs. Walter Veitch, Wm. Sheriffs, sr., James Mitchell, of Winterbourne; Frank Harris, of Toronto; Harry Hosking, of Palmerston; Arthur Tyson, of Guelph.

    Notes:

    Winterbourne

    Early on the morning of April twelfth there passed away after a lingering and painful illness, the oldest resident of this section in the person of Mr. William Hardy, at the advanced age of 87 years and 10 months. The deceased was born in Nottingham, England, in 1827, and came to this country with his parents at the age of eight. The family at first lived in Hamilton then at Gourock, near Guelph, and finally took up the farm on which the deceased died. When a young man he carried the mails on horse-back thru the woods from Guelph to Hamilton, which at that time was not an easy task and at times even dangerous. On his father acquiring the property here he came home and soon after was married to Elizabeth Wright, who survive him, along with three sons, Joseph, of Lanigan, Sask., John and Frederick, of Winterbourne, and three daughters, Mrs. Hoskin, of Palmerston, Mrs. Lehman, Victoria, B. C., and Mrs. Mitchell, Winterbourne, Mrs. Daly having predeceased him. He had a sturdy independent temperament with which he faced and overcame the difficulties incident to early pioneer days. He was among the first to invest in thorough-bred cattle, and it proved to be remunerative as well as helpful to his neighbors. Possessed of a fine treble voice he, with Messrs. M. Durrat, J. Hamilton and Wm. Elsly formed a quartette that was ?ted in the days of tea-meeting and revival services. He was a consistent member and faithful supporter of the Methodist church. The funeral took place from his late residence to the Winterbourne cemetery on Wednesday of last week. Rev. W. Hamilton officiating at the services. The pall-bearers were John Hardy, Fred Hardy, Mr. Hoskin, Jas. Mitchell, Wilbur Hardy and John Daly.
