Woods of Beulah The call was looked for and near friends summoned for parting words Deceased had been a resident of this district over 40 years the family coming west from Shakepere, Ont. in the big migration of '81 homesteading a mile west of Birtle, where Wm Flynn still resides

      Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon in St George's Church and interment made in the family plot in Birtle cemetery. Three sons John of Calgary, Jas of Brandon and Wm of Birtle with three sons-in-law T. C. Green and J. M. Orr, of Beulah, and Robt Whitelaw, of Birtle, were pall bearers Floral tributes were unique and appropriate.

      Besides the three sons and three daughters present, son Richard in Minneapolis and brothers Samuel Alfied Morton, of Birtle, mourn the passing of a faithful loving mother and sister. All we Birtle oldtimers will miss her kindly hand clasp and cheery greeting
