  • Notes 
    • Death of Mrs. Thomas Marshall

      The death of this lady, which was very sudden, has cast a gloom over the section in which she resided. Sabbath morning she arose and after breakfast, feeling apparently quite well, she made ready for church. With her family she drove into town and was just entering the church when she was stricken almost unconscious at once from apparent apoplexy. She was conveyed to the basement of the church and medical aid was quickly rendered her, but, all without avail. She was removed to the residence of Mr. Robert Henselwood, and after lingering in an unconscious state until noon of the next day she breathed her last. Mrs. Marshall had only little more than passed her 48th year. She was a sister of Mr. William Biggar, glove maker, and Mrs. Robert Henselwood, of Galt. Of a very happy disposition, she had hosts of friends, who deeply regret her death and extend their heartiest sympathy to her bereaved husband and family in their terrible misfortune.
