• Notes

  The Passing of Hugh Kay On Thursday, July 18, another old resident in the person of Mr. Hugh Kay passed to the Great Beyond. The deceased, who was in his 81st year, was one of the early settlers, having spent more than the allotted span of life as a resident of this community. He was born in Ayrshire, Scotland, and came to Ayr, Ont., in his boyhood days. Having learned the trade of a cabinet maker he pursued this avocation for many years, conducting quite an extensive business in that line. He was of a quiet, unobtrusive disposition, and seldom took any interest in affairs that did not directly concern him, but was esteemed a good neighbor and a worthy citizen. His nearest surviving relatives are a nephew and three nieces, viz., Mr. A. M. Kay, postmaster, Stratford; Mrs. W. H. Kerr, Brussels; Mrs. D. R. Millar, Galt, and Miss Nessie Kay, Winnipeg. The funeral took place on Friday last, interment being made in the Ayr cemetery. Rev. Mr. Grant, pastor of Knox church, conducted service at the house and also at the grave. The pallbearers were Messrs. H. Gmelin, C. McGeorge, D. McColl, T. Fairgrieve, J. W. Hunt and J. Anderson.
