  • Notes 
    • REEVE DRYDEN DEAD.

      Mr. Andrew Dryden, Reeve of the Township of North Dumfries, died about seven o'clock Thursday evening at his home on lot 22 on the 9th concession of the township. He had only been confined to his bed for a couple of weeks, and his death came with some suddenness, and rather unexpectedly. He had been in ill health, however, for about a year.

      Mr. Dryden was highly thought of by all with whom he came in contact, either in his official capacity or in his private relations. He paid much attention to the affairs of the municipality, and was serious and painstaking Reeve.

      The deceased was born on the farm where he spent his last hours, sixty- three years ago on Sunday, the day of his burial.

      The Chronicle Telegraph 27 Sep 1906, p. 6
