Notes |
- James Cherry of Glenallan Passes
Prominent Peel Resident and Municipal Official Ill for Several Months
Glenallan, May 22 - Once again the grim reaper visited our locality, when a highly respected friend and neighbor, in the person of Mr. Jams A. Cherry, passed to the great beyond, on Saturday. The late Mr. Cherry had been in failing health for the past six years, but always was able to carry on, up until the past few months. The late Mr. Cherry was born in the Township of Maryboro on the 10th line west of Drayton, 59 years and 18 days ago and moved to Peel Township about 1892, where he married Sarah Stickney, who survives him. Besides his sorrowing widow he leaves to mourn their loss, two sons, Gordon and Elwyn at home; one daughter, Fern, Mrs. Leslie Beggs, on the Townline, three brothers, John of Souris, Man., Ford, of Dodsland, Sask., and Rilet on the 6th of Peel; five sisters, Mrs. Matthews Stickney, Port Huron, Mich., Mrs. John Holborn, Wilton Grove, Ont., Mrs. Sydney Hill, St. Catharines; Mrs. Alfred Holborn, of near Drayton; and Mrs. Erwin of Yakima, Wash. The late Mr. Cherry was a school trustee, and sanitary inspector for the south part of Peel township at the time of his death. Interment took place at the Elmira cemetery, Tuesday afternoon. Rev. Mr. Fiddes of Elmira officiated at both the house and grave. The pallbearers were Messrs. Charles Matthews, George Johnston, George Beggs, Fred Starr, Fred A. Hammond and William Rennie. The sympathy of the entire community is extended to the sorrowing widow and family.
