      The Passing of Mrs. Richard Henderson

      This week we are called upon to chronicle the death of several old residents, one of whom is Mrs. Richard Henderson, who resided here continuously for 62 years. She passed away on Thursday afternoon, July 25, in her 80th year.

      Born in Kirk Jetholm, Roxburghshire, Scotland, she came to Ayr just after marriage in 1856, the maiden name being Margaret Hope. In her earlier days she was a consistent member of Stanley Street Presbyterian Church, but had been an invalid for many years and about two months ago sustained a fractured hip. Among the older residents she was widely known and highly esteemed. Her husband predeceased her five years. The members of the family who survive are: Jas. W., town clerk, Margaret and Elizabeth at home, Mrs. Fry, Chesley, and T.A., mgr. National Drug and Chemical Co, Toronto.

      The funeral took place on Saturday, when interment was made in the Ayr Cemetery. The services were conducted by Rev. J. J. Brown, assisted by Re . Dr. Thompson. The pallbearers were Messrs. C. McGeorge, J. R. Folsetter, t. O. Scott, W. A. Ramsay, J. Q. Reid and J. G. Watson.
