  • Notes 
    • Miss Carrie Wurster

      The many friends of Miss Carrie Wurster, will be sorry to learn that she died early this morning in the Galt General Hospital. Altho she has not been well for some time, her condition was not regarded as serious until Saturday, when she was taken to the Galt hospital. Word of her death came as a distinct shock to the citizens. For many years the late, Miss Wurster, has been a teacher of piano and many boys and girls now grown to manhood and womenhood have studied under her tuition. She was born in Preston, a daughter of Rev. Immanuel Wurster and Mrs. Wurster, the former paster of St. Peter's Lutheran church many years ago. There are two brothers surviving, Immanuel, who conducts a jewelry store on King street and Mr. C. Wurster, of Hamilton. Funeral services will be held from the home of Mrs. Perry Atkinson, King street, beside the Imperial bank, on Thursday afternoon at 2.30 o'clock. Rev. W. H. Knauff of the Lutheran church will officiate. Interment will be made at the Preston Cemetery.
