• Notes

  DEATH OF MISS PEQUEGNAT The death of Miss Martha Pequegnat, daughter of the late Ulysse Pequegnat and sister of Messrs Arthur, Paul, George and Philemon Pequegnat of this town, occurred on Wednesday evening, after an illness over a year, which was borne by the deceased with that patience and endurance becoming of the christian character possessed by Miss Pequegnat. The deceased was in her 39th year and was unmarried, and has been living with and caring for her aged mother ever since she could be of assistance to her. The death of Miss Pequegnat will be a sore blow to the bereaved mother and family, and the sympathy of the whole community will be extended to them in the hour of their bereavement. The funeral took place on Saturday afternoon from her mother's residence on Duke street to the German Baptist church, thence to the Mount Hope cemetery.
