    A SAD DEATH

    Rather more than a year ago the REPORTER had the pleasure of chronicling the marriage at Trinity Church, in this town, of Mr. A. M. Nanton, a leading citizen of Winnipeg, to Miss Hespeler, daughter of William Hespeler, Esq., of the same city, and niece of Mrs. Adam Warnock, of Galt. To-day it falls to our lot to record the sad news of the death of Mrs. Nanton, which took place at her residence in Winnipeg on Monday last. To the grief-stricken husband and relatives this will indeed he a crashing blow ; and the many friends of Mr. Hespeler and family in Waterloo will unite expressing their deepest sympathy with them in their sad bereavetnent
