Mr Chas A.R. Dulmage
A telegram to Mr John Dulmage, received on Wednesday evening, contained the announcement of the death of his son, Mr Chas A.R. Dulmage, which took place on Wednesday, at Bakersfield, Cal. Mr Dulmage had been greatly troubled with rheumatism for some time, and last February he went to California in the hope of being benefitted by the change. As a result of the treatment received and the effect of the climate he was gradually recovering, and was looking forward to return to Alberta in the near future, Only last week the most cheering word was received, but he was suddenly seized with pneumonia on Sunday, and Monday word came telling of his dangerous condition, which followed by the announcement of his death. The late Mr Dulmage was the only son of Mr and Mrs John Dulmage, and was born in Almonte thirty-seven years ago. He passed through the schools here, and after graduation from the high school her and the university at Kingston, he took up the study of law. On being called up to the Bar he entered into business with his uncle, the late Richard Dulmage, at Arnprior, and after his death he continued the practice there. About six years ago he was married to Miss Ida White, daughter of Mr T.R. White of Almonte, and to them two children were born, only the younger of whom, Gerald, aged four years is now living. After his marriage Mr Dulmage built for himself a fine home, elegantly finished and fitted in the most up-to-date manner. This he afterward sold, and erected a second home more to his liking. While in Arnprior, he made many friends, both because of professional and personal contact, and the expressions of sympathy and condolence received by his parents here testify to the extent and genuineness of the esteem in which he was held. Mrs Dulmage was with her husband, and ministered to him through his illness. The remains will be brought to Almonte for interment, but the date of the funeral has not yet been fixed. Much sympathy is felt for all concerned in the sad bereavement.

John Dulmage
Another of Almonte's citizens who had been a familiar figure on the streets about town for quite a few years, has passed away in the person of John Dulmage, whose demise took place on Friday last at his home on Union Street. The late Mr Dulmage had not been enjoying good health for a few years, and was thereby reluctantly compelled to retire from the active life he had lived, and he fought bravely against the disease, but to no avail. He was born at Appleton, and was 67 years of age. When only twelve years old he entered the employ of Mr Wesley Tennant, who then kept store in the building on the island at present occupied by Mrs Robert McIntosh, and from one position to another he advanced until he became traveller for James McCready & Co., wholesale boot and shoe dealers. He remained with them for thirty-five years, retiring on account of his health, and when severing the connection he was made the recipient by the Company of a handsome souvenir of his long service with them. About forty years ago Mr Dulmage was married to is Ordelia Hamlin, daughter of the late Alpheus Hamlin, who is still living, and to them was born one son, Chas A.R. Dulmage, barrister, who died at Arnprior a few years ago. One brother, Mr S. Dulmage, of Carleton Place, and one sister, Mrs H.S. Conn, of Ottawa, are still living. Those dead are Wm R. Dulmage, dentist, Smiths Falls; L. Alf Dulmage, Carleton Place; Richard Dulmage, barrister, Arnprior, and Mrs Wm West. The funeral took place on Monday afternoon to the eighth line cemetery, the services being conducted at the house and grave by Rev W.H. Stevens, Assisted by Rev S.G. Brown. The pallbearers were Messrs, J.H. Conn, J.H. Wylie, George Bradford, P. Jamieson, J.D. Taylor and Jas McLeod.

John married Ordelia Adelaide Hamlin in 1875. Ordelia was born in 1850 in Greenbush, Leeds and Grenville United Counties, Ontario, Canada; died on 22 Oct 1934 in Almonte, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Ramsay, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

Link With Past Broken By Death of Mrs Dulmage
Came to Almonte In Days When Town Was Called Shipman's Mills
Readers of The Gazette will mark with regret the passing of Mrs John Dulmage, a member of a pioneer family whose history in this community dates back to the days of Shipman's Mills. The death of Mrs Dulmage occurred on Monday evening following a prolonged illness. Born at Greenbush, near Brockville, in 1850, a daughter of Alpheus Hamlin and Deliah Keeler, she came to Almonte, (then Shipman's Mills) as a child. Mr Alpheus Hamlin, her father, was of Pennsylvania Dutch extraction and was born in that State of the Union. He came to Canada with his parents, while young, as a result of the U.E. Loyalist migration and the family settled on a farm at Greenbush, Leeds County, where he married Deliah Keeler, a daughter of John and Lucy Keeler who were among the early workers in the cradle of Methodism, Bay of Quinte district. John Keeler, the grandfather of Mrs Dulmage, was one of the early local preachers of the Methodist Church. With this background it will be seen that the parents of the late Mrs Dulmage came of ancestors that had played an important part in the formative events of Eastern Ontario. As stated before Mr and Mrs Hamlin and their family came to Almonte in the early fifties when this town was but a struggling village. In 1875 the late Mrs Dulmage was married to Mr John Dulmage of Almonte, son of the late Richard Dulmage, a pioneer of the Appleton district. For a great many years Mr Dulmage was the travelling representative for boot and shoe manufacturing interest in Montreal and the Eastern States. He continued to make Almonte his headquarters until the time of his death in 1916. Mr and Mrs Dulmage had one son, the late Charles Dulmage, who practiced law at Arnprior and who died at Bakersfield, California, in 1913. Mr Dulmage was the last of her immediate family. Two sisters, predeceased her. They were (Lucy) Mrs Abel Coleman, mother of Archdeacon Coleman of Kingston, and Miss Ella Hamlin who passed away at Almonte in 1932. There remain to mourn Mrs Dulmage's death one grandson, Mr Gerald R. Dulmage, who is in his final year in law at Osgoode Hall, Toronto, and one nephew, Rev Archdeacon Coleman of Kingston. The funeral service was conducted at the family home, Union Street, on Wednesday afternoon, being in charge of Rev A. McLauchlin, pastor of Trinity United Church, assisted by Rev C.D. McLellan of Bethany United Church, and Archdeacon Coleman. Interment was made in the family plot at the Auld Kirk Cemetery. Martin, R.A. Jamieson, W.A. Jamieson, W. Laidlaw and Fred Graham of Ottawa. Among relatives and friends attending the funeral from a distance were: Mrs Jas McCreary, Sudbury; Mrs O.J. Henderson and Mrs Ewart Wilson of Toronto; Rev Archdeacon Coleman of Kingston; Mr and Mrs Fred Graham, Miss Sarah Dulmage, Miss T. Snedden and Mrs Hugh Conn of Ottawa; Mr and Mrs H.A. Short and Miss Edna McCreary of Arnprior; Mr J.A.B. Dulmage of Smiths Falls; Mr and Mrs Buchan, Mrs W.I. Scott and Mrs A. Allison of Pakenham. Among the many floral offerings were: a wreath from Trinity United Church and a wreath from Phi Delta Phi, Legal Fraternity of Toronto. In the passing of Mrs Dulmage, Almonte losses a lady of beautiful character whose kindly disposition and many estimable qualities endeared her to old and young in the community where she spent practically all her life. She always was known as one of the most prominent and active worker in the Almonte Methodist Church and when, under Union, Trinity became a unit of the United Church, she continued to give her warm support to the newly created denomination. The death of Mrs Dulmage severs another line with the past and is the occasion for widespread regret in this community and among all those who knew her and now reside in distant places.
