  Mrs. George Hamilton - At noon Saturday last Mrs. George Hamilton passed away at her home in Toronto after an illness of several weeks. Mrs. Hamilton was formerly Mary Etta Watson, eldest daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. James G. Watson. She was born in Ayr 57 years ago, and lived here continuously until about 16 years ago when the family moved to Toronto.
