    Notes:

    Death of Mr. Wm. Bell

    This old and well-known resident of Galt died at the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. John Gourlay, on Sabbath evening last. Some few days previously the old gentleman was seized with paralysis while sitting in front of the house, and although he rallied so far as to recover consciousness to a certain extent the shock was too severe for one of his age, and he gradually sand until he passed to his rest on the evening mentioned.

    Mr. Bell was a native of Roxboroughshire, Scotland, and came to Canada in 1857. He at once took up his residence in Galt, where he has resided continually ever since. He was a quiet, unassuming citizen, full of old-time memories of his beloved Scotland, and during his long residence in Galt never made an enemy. He leaves a large family, of whom Mr. John Bell resides in Winnipeg; Andrew in Manitoba, near Winnipeg; William and Adam in Galt; Mrs. Fenwick in Toronto; and Mrs. Gourlay and Miss Elsie Bell in Galt. The deceased gentleman was aged 82 years and 6 months at the time of his death. His funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon, a large number of mourners attending, notwithstanding the inclement weather, to show the last token of respect to their old friend.
