?b?Obit. - Mrs. John Flynn.?/b?
On Saturday last Huntley township lost one of its landmarks by the death, after about two years' illness, of Mrs. John Flynn, aged 77 years. Deceased, whose maiden name was Elizabeth Kelly, was born in Co. Carlow, Ireland, and came to this country in 1847. Shortly afterward she married Mr. Flynn (who died some years ago) and settled on the 12th line of Huntley. There were ten of a family - five boys and five girls. The daughters are Mrs. Patrick O'Keefe, deceased; Mrs. Dennis Healy, Mrs. Matthew Healy, of Smith's Falls; Mrs. Thos. Carter, of Carleton Place; and Miss Sarah Ann, who lives at home. The sons are James, on the homestead; Dennis, an engineer with the Standard Oil Co. in New York; Michael, in Huntley; John and Thomas, in the United States. The children were given a good home training, and all have prospered and won a good name for themselves. The late Mrs. Flynn was known far and near for her geniality and hospitality, and the news of her death was received with sorrow by all who knew her. The remains were interred in St. Michael's cemetery, Huntley, on Monday at 9 a.m., the funeral mass having been celebrated in St. Michael's church by Rev. Father Corkery. The cortege was one of the largest ever seen in the township.
