    Passing of Mrs. Marshall

    Another Long-Time Resident Crosses the Great Divide

    Time and death are constantly making inroads on the ranks of the early settlers. This week we are called upon to chronicle the demise of a lady who, although not old in years, was born in the district and had resided here or in the immediate vicinity for over half a century. Mrs. Peter A. Marshall (nee Maggie Oliver), passed away on Thursday evening after a somewhat extended and very painful illness \endash deeply regretted by a wide circle of relatives and friends. She was born in Blandford nearly 56 years ago, and was married to Mr. Marshall in 1886, afterwards residing on a farm near here until they moved into the village of Ayr about eight years since, her husband dying some six years ago. The subject of this brief obituary was a staunch Presbyterian, being a member of Knox United Church and very active in Ladies' Aid work. She was highly esteemed by all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance. Five children survive to mourn the loss of a loving mother, Mrs. Jas. C. Swain resides in Ayer, Anthony at St. Mary's, Bella at Galt, Leslie in Toronto, and Chester in Ayr. A sister, Catherine, also lives here, and two brothers also survive: John in Vancouver, B. C., and Wm. in Carberry, Man. The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon, when the remains were laid to rest in the beautiful Ayr cemetery. The deceased's pastor, Rev. J. J. Brown, conducted the service. The pallbearers were Messrs. Thos. Hall, Jas. Hall, John Anderson, Matthew Deans, Geo. Landreth and R. Carrick.
