      Highly Esteemed

      Word has been received here of the death at Ethelton, Sask., on Friday, September 26th, of Thomas Stevenson, a former resident of this village, aged 97 years. Mr. Stevenson was born in Paris, but lived in Ayr for some 30 years. For 20 years, he worked as a cooper for the former Goldie Milling Company at Greenfield. He later spent, two years at Windsor as foreman cooper at the salt works. Mr. Stevenson then decided to go west, where he homesteaded a farm at Loganton, Sask., and subsequently removed to a farm at Clavett, Sask. He had been residing with his son, Arthur, at Ethelton, Sask., for many years, and in 1923 came to Ayr for two years, where he resided at the home of his daughter, the late Mrs. Archie G. Watson. In religion, he was a Presbyterian, being a member of the former Stanley Street Church here. For many years, he was superintendent of the Sunday School and also was an elder of the church. Mr. Stevenson was highly respected by all with whom he came in contact and had many warm friends here. He is survived by the following four sons: Arthur, Ethelton, Sask.; Hedley, Enderby, B.C.; James, Saskatoon, Sask., and William, in the United States. His wife predeceased him many years ago. The late Mrs. Archie G. Watson and the late Mrs. William A. Watson were daughters. The funeral took place on Monday, September 29th, interment being made at Ethelton, Sask.
