    Notes:

    We regret to announce the death very suddenly, from, it is believed, heart disease, of Mr. Samuel Weir, of North Dumfries, which occurred on Sunday morning last. The deceased gentleman was a native of County Down, Ireland, and came to this country in 1816, settling at once on the farm on which he died. He was a Presbyterian, and was much respected. Deceased was in his 77th year.
