Passing of a Pioneer - Every year the number of pioneer settlers in this part of the country is reduced by the inroads Death makes upon their ranks. Today we have to chronicle the demise of an old landmark of the Cedar Creek district in the person of Mr. John Henderson, who passed away on Saturday morning, in his 73rd year. Last summer Mr. Henderson suffered a slight paralytic stroke, but was seriously ill for only about a week. He was born on the farm on which he died, was widely known and highly respected as a good neighbor, and industrious farmer. Of a quiet and unassuming disposition, he made many fast friends who will regret his passing. In religion he was a Presbyterian and in politics a Reformer. His wife predeceased him 13 years. the surviving members of the family are: Janet (Mrs. Wm. J. Simpson, Washington; Mrs. Frank Creeden, New Westminster, B.C.; Mrs. Wm. R. McRae, Champion, Alberta; Thomas, Lajeiv(?), Sask.; Barbara in Brantford; Beatrice at Galt, Catherine, Tessie and James at home.

Miss Barbara Campbell Henderson of Reidsville One of Them

A very tragic phase of the prevailing Spanish Influenza epidemic occurred in Brantford General Hospital on Friday when two nurses who were room-mates succumbed to the disease within half an hour of each other. One of these was Miss Barbara Campbell Henderson, daughter of the late John Henderson of Reidsville, who had been in training as a nurse for 13 months, and was run down through overwork on "Flu" cases. She was born at Reidsville 31 years ago. She was ill only about a week, death ensuring from pneumonia, following a severe attack of influenza. Her death has cast a gloom over the entire community, where she was well-known and highly esteemed. The deceased is survived by six sisters and two brothers. They are Misses Kate and Tessie and Mr. James Henderson on the homestead; near Reidsville; Mrs. W. J. Simpson, Washington; Miss Beatrice, Galt, and two sisters and a brother in the West.
