She had for a long time been a great sufferer of dropsy. About six months ago, while on a visit to the house of a friend, Mr. Campbell, near Elora, she was taken very ill and there she remained and died, having received every kindness at Mr. Campbell's house, from him, as well as from her relatives during her painful illness. She was born in Roxburghshire, Scotland in 1818 and about fifteen years later, emigrated to Canada. She resided for a number of years in the township of Woolwich in Waterloo Co., where nearly half a century ago, she married Mr. Gerrie. In 1856, the family removed to the Gore of Puslinch and lived there for twelve years. Then, they took up their residence on the 4th concession of Puslinch, near Downey's Schoolhouse for twelve years. About six years ago, they removed to Pilkington. She was best known in Puslinch, where she was much respected for her kind and benevolent disposition and her many acts of charity. She was always ready to help a neighbour in difficulty or distress and always willing to give food and shelter to the deserving stranger who came to her door. Of a lively disposition and gifted with much conversational power, she was a pleasant and entertaining companion. She leaves her husband and one son, Adam Gerrie Jr., one daughter, Mrs. Fowler* of Peterborough, who with her deceased sister, was well known in Guelph some years ago as accomplished vocalists.
