1878, Friday June 21, The Almonte Gazette page 2

At her father's residence, Mount Pleasant, Ramsay, on the 13th June, of nervous fever, in the 26th year of her age, Jane, wife of David S. McFarlane, 5th concession Ramsay, and daughter of David and Janet Aikenhead, of Ramsay. Deceased departed this life after a short but most painful illness; yet throughout her sore trouble she always remembered, in the intervals of cessation from extreme suffering that her bodily afflictions were allowed by her Heavenly Father, and prayed that she might remain patient and resigned until the end; and felt assured that in His own good time she would be released from all her trials here, and would enter upon that rest that remaineth for all those that love the Lord Jesus in sincerity and truth. She oft asserted to friends by her bedside that she had no desire for a longer extension of her term of existence, and seemed to feel confident from the very commencement of her ailment that she would never again be restored to her wonted health and strength, and trusting solely to the merits of the Blessed Redeemer, she felt pleases to anticipate the change through death to life eternal. Her assured confidence of a blessed resurrection must have been most cheering to her infirm mother waiting by her dying bed, who thereby beheld the fruits of her endeavours to instill into the minds of her children in their earlier years the "fear of the Lord," so that when their term of life here expires those words of inspiration may be applicable to them, namely, "Blessed are the dead that die in the Lord, &c." The sorrowing parents, husband and friends have the sympathy of a large circle of friends and acquaintances in the neighbourhood, in their bereavement. And this was evinced by the large attendance of fifty vehicles on the 15th, to accompany the remains to their last resting place the burying ground on the 8th concession line Ramsay, where they were deposited, after an appropriate burial service at the grave by the deceased's pastor, the Rev John Bennett, of Almonte.
