    Death of Mrs. George Barrie

    Last week the Reporter contained a sort notice of the death of Mrs. James Cowan, and therein was mentioned that of the old folks who remained to us the most prominent were Mrs. George Barrie and Mrs. David Potter. Today we are called upon to record the death of one of these two in the person of Mrs. George Barrie, who passed quietly away on Tuesday, at 1 o'clock, pm. Mrs. Barrie was born in Lilliesleaf, Roxboroughshire, Scotland, and was married there, emigrating to Canada, with her husband, in 1829, in company with the last James Cowan and his wife, the lady whose death was announced last week and Walter Cowan and wife, both long since dead. They all took up land at once, Mr. Barrie the homestead now occupied by the youngest of his children, Mr. Alexander Barrie; James Cowan the homestead now occupied by Mr. Thos. Cowan; and Walter Cowan the homestead now occupied by Mr. Wm. Cowan. For a time, while a house was being built on his land, Mr. Barrie occupied a house on the top of "Dickson's" hill, but as soon as ever his own house was read the family moved into it and there laid the foundation by industry of the fine properties now owned by the sons, Mr. Robert Barrie, now retired and living in Galt; Mr. Walter Barrie, residing near Ayr; Mr. John Barrie, residing on the farm just north of the homestead; and Mr. George Barrie, residing on the farm almost adjoining to the west, and the homestead now occupied by Mr. Alexander Barrie. The father, Mr. George Barrie, died in 1863. Himself and wife the descendants of the sturdy Scottish race who made Scotland revered, they have left behind them a family which is a household word in this section, for besides the sons enumerated there are yet living three daughters, viz, Mrs. Hugh Morton, now residing with her husband in Galt; Mrs. John Cavers, of North Dumfries; and Mrs. Thos. Dalgleish, of Galt. For convenience in attending church

    Mrs. Barrie was a prominent member of Knox Church

    she came about a year ago to reside with Mrs. Dalgleish, in Galt. A little more than ten days ago the deceased lady was attacked with inflammation of the bowels; and although at times it appeared as if she might throw off the attack her strength became so much reduced that, after severe suffering, she gently closed her eyes to this world at the hour mentioned on Tuesday. Mrs. Barrie was in the 92nd year of her age, was a woman of strong Christian affections, and in the early days of Dumfries took a leading part in all that fell to the lot of a pioneer's wife.
