8340	Mr. George K. Leeson, who left last Sunday week for Spokane Falls, on hearing that his brother Andrew had met with a railway accident there, did not arrive in time his brother having died the day after the accident. The remains will be interred in Calgary, Mr. Leeson having left Spokane with the body yesterday morning. The sympathy of the community will be extended to the mourning relatives. The Calgary Weekly Herald, September 25, 1889 -------- Mr. Andrew Leeson, whose remains were committed to the silent tomb yesterday, was born at Smith Falls, County of Lanark, Province of Ontario. He was 50 years old at the time of his death which took place at Spokane two weeks ago Saturday last. He was never married. Mr. Leeson held the position of superintendent of bridge construction of the Northern Pacific Railway for a long time and was in active discharge of his duties when the accident occurred which resulted in his death thirteen hours later. He had left the station with a gang of men ahead of a freight train. The freight train hove in sight behind them at a narrow pass and they were obliged to set their hand car up on its side against a bank and hold it there for the train to pass. Mr. Leeson stepped across the strack to pick up something and then stepped back to the side where his men were. No on knows how the accident took place, but it is supposed some gravel must have given way under his feet and caused him to sway towards the track, when the engine struck him on the side, throwing him a great distance, breaking several ribs and inflicting other sever injuries. The train was reversed at once and the injured man taken to Spokane. No less than seven doctors were called, but their services were of no avail to save his life. The railway company with whom he was very popular, wired his brother, Mr. George K. Leeson, at Calgary. When death took place a solid steel coffin with plate glass front was procured, to await the arrival of his brother from here. Mr. Geo. K. Leeson returned to Calgary with the remains yesterday morning. At 2 p.m. Sunday the funeral proceeded to the Cathedral Church of the Redeemer where the beautiful service was taken by his Lordship Bishop Pinkham. The chief mourners were his brothers George K. and William Leeson and his cousin John K. Shirley. The employees of the Northern Pacific Railway furnished a splendid wreath and they also raised the sum of $1,000. to erect a monument to the memory of their lamented friend Andrew Leeson.

Most records, including her Ontario marriage registration, indicate that Jane was born in Ireland, but a few do show she was born Ontario.

The 1901 Canada census records her date of birth as July 12 1839, but that contradicts the birth year inscribed on the headstone, and is no doubt incorrect.

In politics he was an ardent Concervative and was an active member of L.O.L> No 378, until with the weight of advancing years he stepped aside and gave way to the younger men, but always retained his warm attachment for the order, in which he was honoured by his fellow members by elevation to the highest office. He was also a member of Almonte Lodge No 154 I.O.O.F., and in this order too, he was an active and useful member in his younger days. The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon to the Eighth line cemetery and was one of the largest ever seen hereabout, there being fully one hundred and fifty conveyence in the cortege, and even this large number would have been increased but for the threatening weather, Rev S.G.

Mr. George K. Leeson, who left last Sunday week for Spokane Falls, on hearing that his brother Andrew had met with a railway accident there, did not arrive in time his brother having died the day after the accident. The remains will be interred in Calgary, Mr. Leeson having left Spokane with the body yesterday morning. The sympathy of the community will be extended to the mourning relatives.
The Calgary Weekly Herald, September 25, 1889
--------
Mr. Andrew Leeson, whose remains were committed to the silent tomb yesterday, was born at Smith Falls, County of Lanark, Province of Ontario. He was 50 years old at the time of his death which took place at Spokane two weeks ago Saturday last. He was never married.

Mr. Leeson held the position of superintendent of bridge construction of the Northern Pacific Railway for a long time and was in active discharge of his duties when the accident occurred which resulted in his death thirteen hours later. He had left the station with a gang of men ahead of a freight train. The freight train hove in sight behind them at a narrow pass and they were obliged to set their hand car up on its side against a bank and hold it there for the train to pass. Mr. Leeson stepped across the strack to pick up something and then stepped back to the side where his men were. No on knows how the accident took place, but it is supposed some gravel must have given way under his feet and caused him to sway towards the track, when the engine struck him on the side, throwing him a great distance, breaking several ribs and inflicting other sever injuries. The train was reversed at once and the injured man taken to Spokane. No less than seven doctors were called, but their services were of no avail to save his life.

The railway company with whom he was very popular, wired his brother, Mr. George K. Leeson, at Calgary. When death took place a solid steel coffin with plate glass front was procured, to await the arrival of his brother from here. Mr. Geo. K. Leeson returned to Calgary with the remains yesterday morning. At 2 p.m. Sunday the funeral proceeded to the Cathedral Church of the Redeemer where the beautiful service was taken by his Lordship Bishop Pinkham. The chief mourners were his brothers George K. and William Leeson and his cousin John K. Shirley. The employees of the Northern Pacific Railway furnished a splendid wreath and they also raised the sum of $1,000. to erect a monument to the memory of their lamented friend Andrew Leeson.

Mr. John Fumerton

By the death of Mr. John Fumerton, who passed away on Monday morning at the advanced age of eighty-eight years and three months, Kelowna lost an old and respected citizen who until a few months ago was a familiar figure on the streets moving about with a wonderful degree of activity considering his years.

Mr. Fumerton was born on a farm in the Township of Ramsay, County of Lanark and in his early youth and early manhood he followed agricultural pursuits, later entering mercantile life and operating a general store business at Fallbrook, Ont. for many years. Migrating to Holland Manitoba he was engaged in trade there for about ten years and upon retiring from active business he came to Kelowna twelve years ago with his son Mr. J.F. Fumerton.

He had been confined to his room since Christmas and his decline was gradual and the end painless, being due simply to old age. Member of a remarkably long-lived family, Mr Fumerton is survived by five brothers, two of them resident in Ontario and three in Saskatchewan. His wife predeceased him many years ago. He leaves two sons, Mr. J.F. Fumerton of Kelowna, and Mr. D.J. Fumerton of Penticton, and one daughter, Mrs J.W. Stewart of Ottawa Ont.

After a short service at the undertaking parlours of the Kelowna Furniture Company on Wednesday morning conducted by Rev. A.K. McMinn, the body was dispatched for burial at Holland where the late Mrs. Fumerton is interred, Mr. J.F. Fumerton accompanying it. The deceased having been a member of the craft, the committal at Holland will be made with Masonic Honours.
