  	1893, Friday February 3 The Almonte Gazette front page Obit. ? The Late Mrs Gilbert Cannon After an illness extending over many years Mrs Gilbert Cannon passed to her reward on Saturday afternoon last, deeply regretted by a wide circle of friends. For a considerable time she was confined to the house, and for several weeks proceeding her death she gradually grew weaker, having been unable to take nourishment. Mrs Cannon, whose maiden name was Susanna Leckie, was born in Scotland in 1828, and came to this country about fifty years ago. She was a sister of Mr Thomas Leckie, for whom "Leckie's Corners" was called, and who edited and managed Almonte's first newspaper, which was established by a joint stock company about thirty years ago. She lived at Leckie's Corners with her brother, who did business there as a general merchant, until her marriage to Mr Cannon; and shortly afterward Mr and Mrs Cannon removed to town and have lived here ever since, enjoying the esteem and respect of the community. While she enjoyed health deceased brightened many a sick room by her kind ministrations. During Mrs Cannon long illness her husband was devotion itself, doing all that was possible to mitigate her sufferings.
