Mr John Glover
One of the pioneers of Blakeney (then Rosebank) and one of the oldest settlers of Ramsay township, passed to his eternal rest early Wednesday morning, when Mr John Glover answered the inevitable call in his 83rd year. Mr Glover had enjoyed good health until a few months ago but had since that time gradually weaken from the accumulated strain of many years. Deceased was born in Keith, Scotland, and married there. In 1854 he came to Canada and settled at Rosebank, on the property where the Rosebank House now stands. After living there for some years he moved to Bennie's Corners and finally to Almonte about 1870. Since becoming a citizen of the town Mr Glover had made many friends in his quiet way as was evidenced by the large attendance at the funeral this (Thursday) afternoon. Interment was made from the home of Mr Wm Glover with whom he has resided for the past few years. His wife died seven years ago and three of the children, John, Miss Maggie and Mrs Patterson of Philadelphia, also passed away some years ago. The surviving members of the family are: William in Almonte; Adam in Toronto; Mrs Wm Pattie, Carleton Place; Mrs Sinclair, Calgary; Mrs A. Young and Mrs D. Williams, Almonte. Mr Glover had never taken any active interest in public affairs, but his long life had equipped him with a vast sum of experience which would have ably fitted him for office to trust had he so desired. His life will be long remembered by those with whom he had grown in years.

John married Elizabeth Jenkinson in 1845 in Scotland. Elizabeth was born in Jun 1825 in Edinburgh, City of Edinburgh, Scotland; died on 25 Feb 1902 in Almonte, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Ramsay, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

A Good Women Gone
Two years ago Mrs John Glover was stricken with paralysis. From this she almost fully recovered, but again about a month ago she suffered from another stroke, and from this time on, though nature struggled hopefully against great odds, the battle was an unequal one, and on Tuesday night the end came calmly and peacefully, the burdens of life were laid down, and she entered into rest that is beyond. The deceased was born in Edinburgh in June 1825, and was married to Mr. Glover in the old land. In 1854 they came to Canada and settled in Ramsay, near Snedden's afterwards moving to Bennie's Corners, where they lived for several years before coming to Almonte. A family of eleven children were born to them, two dying in infancy, and two others, Maggie and John, a few years ago. Those living are Mrs. Pattie, Carleton Place; Mrs Patterson, Philadelphia; Mrs Sinclair, Mrs A. Young, William, and Mrs D. Williams, Almonte and Adam, of Toronto. There are twenty-three grandchildren, and seven great-grandchildren. These with her husband mourn the loss of a kind mother and devoted wife. Mrs Glover was for about thirty-three years a resident of Almonte, and in 1896 she and Mr. Glover celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage. The deceased was a very quiet, unassuming person -- one of those who seldom noticed until they are laid aside, and then is revealed something of the kindness, sympathy and generosity which have characterized the life. She was a consistent member of St. John's Presbyterian church, and a regular attendant of the house of prayer when it was possible for her to be there. The funeral takes place Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock to the eighth line cemetery.
