  • Notes 
    • We regret this week to announce the death of Mr. Wm. Rutherford, of South Dumfries, near Glenmorris, which occurred suddenly, from apoplexy, it is supposed, last Monday morning. Mr. Rutherford was a very old and much respected resident of this locality, having come to Canada from Jedburghshire, in the year 1830, settling at once on the farm where he died. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church, and was deservedly respected by all who knew him. His funeral took place on Wednesday to Galt Cemetery, and was very largely attended.
