    Death of Mr. James Shaw

    After an illness extending over some months, this well-known resident of Waterloo passed to his rest on Thursday afternoon last. Of a genial, easy temperament, Mr. Shaw made hosts of friends, all of whom will sincerely regret to hear of his death. Deceased came to Canada in 1837, we believe, in company with his father and brothers and sisters, the family consisting of Adam, now of Sullivan, but for many years of Hespeler ; Walter, now in Hespeler ; David, living in Embro; Joseph, who lately removed to Manitoba; Mrs. Eskdale, of Waterloo Township and Mrs. McLean, of Tuckersmith. Shortly after coming to this country the family settled in Waterloo, taking up a large block of land and on a very fine portion of this land the deceased continuously resided up to the time of his death. The deceased gentleman was married to a sister of Mrs. James Cowan of Waterloo, and leaves his aged wife and a family of three sons and four daughters. The funeral took place on Saturday afternoon last to Hespeler cemetery, and was very largely attended by those who, while in life, had the pleasure of Mr. Shaw's friendship and acquaintance.

    Notes:

    Death of Mrs. Jas. Shaw.

    Mrs. Jas. Shaw, widow of the late Jas. Shaw, of Waterloo, died at the old homestead, near Hespeler, on Sunday morning last. Deceased had been in her usual health up to within a day or two, so that her death, which is said to have been caused by grip, was very unexpected. Deceased was a sister of Mr. Jas Cowan, of Craigie Lea, who has thus suffered a double bereavement within the past two weeks. Mr. Shaw died in September 1881, since which time Mrs. Shaw has resided on the homestead. There are left to mourn the loss of a mother, a family of four daughters and three sons, viz,: - Mrs. Jas Deans, Paris; Mrs. D. S. Ferguson, Misses Mary and Maggie Shaw; Messrs. John, William and Thomas Shaw, all of Waterloo township. The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon, and was very largely attended.
