    ?b?Obit. ? Mrs Baird?/b?
    The announcement of the death of Mrs John Baird on Sunday morning was a surprise and a shock to many. Mrs Baird had been about as usual on Friday, and very few knew of her serious illness until the news of her demise became known. The deceased, whose maiden name was Christina Bryson, was a daughter of the late James Bryson, of Ramsay, who lived on the farm on the eleventh line now occupied by Mr John Neilson, and upon which Mr and Mrs Robt Bryson lived for a number of years. She was married to Mr John Baird, of Appleton, and they lived in Appleton, where Mr Baird died about forty years ago. Mrs Baird came to Almonte about twenty-two years ago. Of the family born to them Robert and Jane (Mrs Cameron), are in Winnipeg, Margaret (Mrs D. Shaw), in Almonte, and James is in Pilot Mound. Hon Geo Bryson, of Coulonge, and Mr Robt Bryson, of Almonte, were brothers, and Mrs And. Wilson, sr., of Appleton was a sister of Mrs Baird. The deceased was the last of her father's family to pass away and she attained the age of 74 years. The funeral will take place on Friday at 11 o'clock, to the eighth line cemetery. The deceased was much loved and respected by all who know her, and many there are who have had occasion to call her blessed.
