    Death Of Stephen Marshall

    One of Ayr's Oldest and Most Esteemed Residents Passes in His 83rd Year

    One of the oldest and most esteemed residents of our village passed away at 11 o'clock Tuesday evening in the person of Stephen Marshall, in his 83rd year. Mr. Marshall had been in failing health for several months, but took to his bed only two weeks ago. He was born on the Marshall homestead, 13th concession of Blenheim, now owned by his son, William, being the son of Anthony Marshall and Isabel Hall, who were pioneer settlers from Scotland. After his marriage he farmed in South Dumfries for several years and then removed to the Kingsborough farm, Townline, where he spent ten years. The family then went back to the home farm, 13th of Blenheim, where the next twenty years were spent. They came to Ayr 21 years ago and took up residence on Grey street. Mr. and Mrs. Marshall celebrated their golden wedding anniversary in 1933. Mr. Marshall was a member of the former Stanley Street Church and after union, was a valued member of Knox United congregation, where he served on the Board of Trustees for many years. He was one of the oldest members of Dolman Lodge, I.O.O.F., and a member of the Ayr Cemetery Company Board. In politics, he was a staunch Liberal. While engaged in farming, he was for many years a director of Drumbo Fair Agricultural Society and also served on the Perry's Corners school board. Mr. Marshall was widely known throughout this section and was much respected as a good friend and neighbor. Besides his sorrowing wife, whose maiden name was Jennie Scott, he is survived by the following children: J. A. Marshall, Calgary Wm. S. Marshall, Blenheim; Mrs. Robert Gladstone, North Dumfries; Lovett Marshall, Yorkton, Sask., and Mrs. Harold Foote, Toronto. His oldest son, Roy, died in Calgary four years ago, while another son, Howard, of the 111th Batt., was killed overseas in 1918. One sister, Margaret Marshall, of Galt, also survives. The funeral will take place from his late residence to Ayr Cemetery on Friday afternoon at 2.30 o'clock.

    Passing of a Great Grandmother

    On Thursday last there passed to her reward one of the pioneer settlers of this district in the person of Mrs. Alex. Scott of Blenheim, who had attained the ripe age of 90 years. The deceased, whose maiden name was Elspeth Oliver, was born in Scotland and came to Canada at the age of 11, settling with her parents on the Old Oliver farm just east of the village. Ayr was then a mere hamlet and the whole countryside was a little better than a howling wilderness. The changes she witnessed during 80 years residence in a young and constantly developing country can possibly be better imagined than described. Suffice it that she was not only an eyewitness but a participant in the development of the country and had the honor of living to be a great-grandmother. In early womanhood she was united in marriage with the late Alex Scott, who predeceased her 11 years, at the age of 90. To them four sons and three daughters were born, all of whom survive, viz., Mrs. Geo. Henderson, San Francisco, Cali.; George and James, South Dumfries; William and Mrs. Stephen Marshall, Blenheim; Mrs. E. Elkington, Paris, and Thomas O., Ayr. Two sisters also survive, Mrs. Peter Hope, Ayr, and Mrs. Geo. Hope, Brantford. Two brothers and a sister predeceased her - Thomas of Manitoba, William of Ayr and Mrs. Geo. Ausbrook of Paris Plains. The funeral took place on Sunday, interment being made in the Ayr cemetery. Deceased was a member of Stanley-st. church, Ayr, and the services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Anderson, assisted by Rev. .Mr. Grant and Dr. Thomson. The pallbearers were grandchildren - viz., E. R. Scott, Galt; Wm. Marshall, Blenheim; Bert Scott and Scotty Elkington, Paris; Leslie Kelly, Paris Plains, and John McGill, Burford.

    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.
