Mrs. Charles James
Although she had been ailing for
some time the death of Mrs. Charles James on Thursday morning, March 5th, came as a distinct shock to her many relatives and friends in and around Almonte. The funeral, which was largely attended, was held last Saturday afternoon, from the family residence, Martin Street, to St. Paul's church where service was conducted by the rector, Rev. J . J. Lowe. The remains were placed in the Anglican vault. The pallbearers were: Walter James Hugh McLachlan, Alan Carswell, Edward James, Robert Boyd and William C. Smithson. Mrs. James, whose maiden name was Elizabeth Dolan, was born in Westport, County of Mayo, Ireland, 74 years ago, a daughter of the late John and Elizabeth Dolan. She came to Canada with her parents, 10 years later and settled at Almonte. Forty-one years ago, she married Charles James at Brockville and after residing at Massena, NY., for some time, Mr. and Mrs. James, in 1914, removed to Almonte. Surviving in addition to her husband are two daughters and one son: Maud, Mrs. Clarence Leishman, Almonte; Beatrice, Mrs. Dan Leach, Carleton Place, and John of Syracuse, N.Y. A son Ross died as a result of an accident in 1917. There also survives one sister, Miss Fannie Dolan, of Almonte.
