Notes:

Death of a Former Resident of Puslinch

Word was sent to Mr. Stirton, Postmaster of the death of William Beattie of West Dumfries, early Thursday morning, in his 69th year. He will be remembered by the older residents of Guelph and Puslinch as the eldest son of Francis Beattie, who settled in Puslinch in the year 1835. After he grew up, he farmed for a good many years in Puslinch and about twenty years ago, moved to Waterloo County, where he continued farming. He had been failing for some time but last Saturday, he was seized with paralysis, which gradually spread all over the body. He was of a quiet, kindly disposition, scrupulously honest and honourable in all his dealings and was held in the highest respect by all who knew him. He leaves a widow and nine children all of whom were present at his death except one daughter and two sons. One of his sons, Rev. Andrew Beattie is a Presbyterian minister in New York City. Mr. Beattie was buried on Saturday.
