• Notes

  We regret to learn of the death, which took place at her husband's residence in the Township of Mornington on the 24th December, of Jennet Laidlaw, for very many years a resident of Galt. Mrs. Laidlaw's death was sudden, she having been going about the house up to a few minutes before her demise. She will be well remembered by the older resident s of Galt, who will learn of her death with regret, and extend their deepest sympathy to her aged partner in life. Mrs. Laidlaw was in the 77th year of her age. Galt Reporter Jan 6 1882 pg 1
