Young (Lucinda) 10th line of Ramsay; Mrs Wm Banning (Adeline) of Almonte and Mrs Robertson (Jean) of Edmonton. Deceased was educated at the rural school near his Ramsay home and in Almonte. While a young man, he learned the printing trade under the late Wm Pittard in the office of the old Almonte Times. From there he went to the Kingston Whigg, to Hamilton and Toronto. After a time he gave up his trade and for some seven years conducted a furniture and undertaking business in Smiths Falls. While in Toronto, Mr Scott had worked for the Catholic Register, where he learned the typesetting machine. He returned to this position in 1918 and continued in the same office until eight years ago when his health failed and he retired. Deceased was a life member of the Masonic Order, belonging to one of the Toronto Lodges. He was also a member of Withrow Park Bowling Club.
