  • Notes 
    • Sudden Death.- Mr. J.H. Campbell received the sad intelligence of the death of his brother-in-law, Mr. W. A. Scott, who died on the 11th of June at Radison, Saskatoon. The late Mr. Scott, his son and hired man were working on his farm when a storm came up. They all got into the wagon and started for home at a lively rate when the tongue of the wagon fell, and running into the ground, upset the wagon throwing the occupants out, Mr. Scott being hurt, but managed with difficulty to walk to his home, a half-mile. The doctor ordered his removal to the hospital at Prince Albert where they operated on him and found his liver had been cut in two, and nothing could be done to save his life. The deceased was a resident of the township of Wellesley for over thirty years having taught school in this locality for a number of years on the 5th line and also in Linwood. After resigning the Linwood school he left for the west where he bought 320 acres of land near Neepawa and later 320 near Saskatoon district, all of which he owned at the time of his death. He leaves to mourn his loss wife and six children. The people of this community extend their deepest sympathy to the bereaved.
