  	1891, Friday February 27, The Almonte Gazette front page ?b?Very Sudden Death?/b? At her home in Hibbard township, Perth Co., Ont, on Wednesday night of last week, Mrs Thos Muir was sitting reading her Bible by the fireside, being in excellent health, when suddenly she was heard to say there was something wrong with her, and in another instant she fell forward -- dead! It was an apoplectic fit, the third she had taken. The deceased was a sister to the late Daniel Galbraith, M.P., half-sister to the late Alexander Stevenson, of this town. She was in the 73rd year of her age. As she had expressed a wish to be buried beside her relatives here, Mr Norman Stevenson, her nephew, proceed west and brought the remains to Mrs Galbraith's residence, Ramsay, from where the funeral took place to the Eighth Line cemetery on Monday. It was largely attended. The late Mrs Muir was a woman of more than ordinary intelligence, and possessed qualities that won for her the esteem of a large circle of friends, who will regret to hear of her demise.
