• Notes

  James Pogson, who died June 20th, came to Wilmot over sixty years ago and took up the lot on which Charles Schlaegel is now. About 20 years ago he sold his farm and moved to New Hamburg, where he lived a short time and then moved to Bright. During the past two years he lived with his son-in- law, Mr. John Garland, from where the funeral took place to the Pine hill where he was buried. He was 84 years old at the time of his death.
