On Wednesday morning, Sept. 8th, there passed away another of the pioneer residents of this district, Catharine McPherson, relict of the late Donald J. McKenzie. The deceased lady was a native of New York State, where she was married to the late Mr. McKenzie, a native of Scotland.

In 1884, Mr. McKenzie passed away and two years later the widow removed to Galt, taking up her abode with her daughter, Mrs. Robert F. Johnston. Here she continued to reside up to the time of her death. Mrs. McKenzie was the third eldest of a family of fourteen, only three of whom survive, viz.: - Mrs. John Buchanan, Branchton; Mrs. Dr. Brown, Brantford; and another sister living at Washington, U.S. The deceased leaves behind a family of three sons and three daughters, viz.: - Alex McKenzie, Paisley; D. A. McKenzie, St. Marys; Kenneth McKenzie, Kansas; Mrs. P. A. Marshall, Galt; Mrs. Alex Bell, Rockton; and Mrs. Robt. F. Johnston, Galt. Deceased was very highly esteemed by all in the community.
