• Notes

  DR. CARRIER ELOPES.-The Galt Reformer says: - Our readers in Galt and vicinity will regret to learn that Dr. Carrier, formerly resident here, has deserted his aimable wife and children, and eloped with one of his patients. Since he left Galt, Dr. Carrier has been residing in Amherstburg, village near Windsor and we are told was doing well. What could have induced the man to leave his family and bring upon himself such disgrace, we cannot imagine. His unfortunate wife, is we understand, some relation of Sir David Brewster, the eminent philosopher, and when in Galt was universaliy esteemed. The following particulars are from the Windsor Chronicle: Dr. Carrier, a well-known medical. practitioner in Malden, has committed the unpardonable offence of inducing one of his patients a young women belonging to a very respectable family to elope with him. The doctor, on the day preceding his departure, drew a heavy bill for medical attendance upon the father of the girl, the principal portion of the amount going for attending upon the young woman herself. He leaves a wife behind him to deplore the misfortune which united her to a man who could, while acting professionally seduce his patient, and thereby bring such heavy affliction upon two families. The Brantford Weekly Expositor Brantford, Ontario, Canada Fri, Dec 30, 1859 Page 2 ________________ Mrs. Joseph Carrier may have been Margaret Key Brewster who later immigrated to New York
