    Mrs. Andrew Hall

    The death occurred suddenly in Ayr on Monday of Jane Gemmell, widow of the late Andrew Hall, in her 74th year. Mrs. Hall was born in North Dumfries Township, on the farm now occupied by Dave Gemmell, and her parents were among the early pioneers of this section. After her marriage she removed to her husband's farm, on the 13th Concession of Blenheim, where they resided for many years, removing to Ayr about eleven years ago. She was a life-long, faithful member of Knox United Church, and was much interested in the work of the various women's organizations of the congregation. Deceased was a lady of many fine qualities and will be greatly missed by numerous friends and relatives in the community. Her husband predeceased her 1-1/2 years ago. She is survived by one sister, Mrs. J. L. Robson, Ayr, and the following six children: Miss Jessie R. Hall, at home; Mrs. A. J.

    Notes:

    GEMMILL An accident occurred in West Dumfries on Friday, the 17th ultimo, to Mr. John Gemmill, which we regret to state has terminated fatally. It appears that Mr. Gemmill was returning from Ayr on the afternoon in question with a yoke of oxen attached to a sleigh, and that by some means or other, he must have fallen off the sleigh, and received the injury from which he died. No person was with him at the time, and it was only the arrival of the oxen without Mr. Gemmill that aroused the fears of the family. His brother immediately set out in search of him, and discovered him lying on the side of the road a short distance from Ayr. He was immediately carried home and medical assistance procured, when it was found that his leg was broken in three places, and that he was otherwise injured. It was at one time hoped that his limb might be saved, but unfavourable symptoms set in, and his medical attendants, Drs. McGeorge and Caw, considered that amputation of the leg was the only chance to save his life. This was accordingly performed, but Mr. Gemmill never rallied, and expired on Saturday last. His funeral took place on Monday. Mr. Gemmill was well known in Galt and vicinity and was formerly employed in the foundry of Messrs Lutz and Company.
