  	1914, Friday November 6, The Almonte Gazette, page 4 Robert Yuill Passes Away Ramsay township has again been called upon to part with another of her old residents, in the person of Mr Robt Yuill, he having answered the enviable call early this Thursday morning. He had suffered from gangrene in his feet for the past two years, at times being called upon to bear most excruciating pain, but through it all he was calm and patient and bore his suffering with a fortitude begotten of his trust in and reliance upon Him whose grace and strength are at all times and under all circumstances more than sufficient. The late Mr Yuill, who was in his 88th year, was born on the farm upon which he spent most of his life, and is the last one of the family of his father, James Yuill, who was one of the pioneer of Lanark county. He was married to Agnes Taylor, a daughter of the late John Taylor of Union Hall neighbourhood, and who died seven years ago. To them a family of four girls and five boys were born. Of these John T. and Mrs Albert G. McFarlane are dead. Those living are James D. and Alex at Mather, Man.; Wm H. at Winnipeg; Mrs Wm Gilmour of Ramsay and Bella, Robt and Maude at home. The late Mr Yuill was a blacksmith, having served his apprenticeship with Mr Jas Lafferty, and afterward went to Illinois, where he lived until called home by the death of his brother. His residence in Perth gave him a title to recognition at the Old Boy's Reunion held there a few years ago, at which he was present, and greatly enjoyed the meeting with old friends and acquaintances. He was of a quiet disposition and never sought public office, but was a useful resident, a warm friend, and a splendid neighbour. He was a member of St John's church, for many years, but, though strongly desirous of doing so, he was never able to attend a service in the church since the union of the two congregations. The funeral will take place on Saturday afternoon at 1.30 o'clock, from his home to the eighth line cemetery. Contributor: Gary J Byron (49329383)
