  • Notes 
    • Death of A. A. Ruby. The Berlin News-Record of Monday says: "The death of Abihu A. Ruby, of Welland, took place yesterday morning at the house of his father-in-la, Mr. Wm. Hendry. He came to Berlin a month ago for medical treatment, but his malady proved incurable and he passed quietly on to the high life on Sabbath morning. Mr. Ruby was the oldest son of the late Adam J. Ruby and formerly was a resident of Berlin. He has lived in Welland for a number of years." Mr. Ruby was a resident of Acton for a year or so and was in the photograph business. He was succeeded by Mr. H. Ramsha, our present artist.
