  • Notes 
    • Obituary - We regret to be called upon this week to announce the death of Mr. John Vipond, of Doon. The deceased gentleman was born at Dryburn, near Alston, Cumberland, England, on the 1st January, 1813. He was married in early life to Miss Robinson, of Renwick, who now mourns the loss of her aged partner. In 1852, he emigrated to Canada in company with his daughter and her husband. After residing in Wellesley township for a year he moved to Benton, Wisconsin, where he remained until 1864; when his health again compelled him to return to Canada, when he settled in Doon, where he remained until his death. For forty years Mr. Vipond had been a sufferer from asthma, a disease that caused other diseases, which terminated fatally on Saturday last. Deceased had for forty-six years been a consistent member of the Methodist Church, and during most of that time a local preacher and a class 1 leader. He was widely known and highly respected, as was attested by the large concourse of friends that followed his remains.to their last place on Monday afternoon.
