  • Notes 
    • Wm. Little, of Galt, employed as moulder at the factory of the Elmira Machinery and Transmission Co., died very suddenly in the sop last Friday. Death was due to heart failure. His death was a severe shock for his wife and young son, who still reside in Galt, but had expected to move to Elmira shortly. The remains were taken to Galt on Friday evening and were buried there on Sunday in presence of a large number of sympathizing friends and neighbors.
