• Notes

  Death of a Most Respected Lady On Monday last, after some weeks of weakness and suffering, Mrs. Cook, widow of the late Peter Cook, passed to her rest. The deceased lady was so well known in the Christian record of her life amongst us, her active participation in all good work; her kindly dealing with the poor, that it is only necessary to say she is gone, to point the void created. There are not many now living in our town who can remember the thrill of horror which went through the community that summer's afternoon now many years ago, when the messenger hurriedly sent for a doctor, gasped out that "Peter Cook was killed up at the foundry." The circumstances are vivid yet to many. The hope that the report was not true; the hurrying to the scene, and the gradual realization that the fatal blow had fallen, and that never more, by man or woman, young or old, would his kindly words be heard - all this will never be forgotten by those who knew Mr. Cook, and respected him as one of our foremost citizens. But if our people mourned for a lost friend the blow to the wife and household can be understood. Christian fortitude enabled them to withstand it and the duties of life were filled to their utmost; but to the wife the joy of this life was ended. She has passed to her well-earned rest and carries with her the loving remembrance of those with whom so many years of her life were spent. Galt Reporter Dec 3 1886 pg 1
