Craig Passes Suddenly Many pay Tribute To Respected Citizen of Almonte District A respected citizen of Almonte passed away, Tuesday in the person of Adam William Craig. He was only 63 years of age and while he had been subject to periodical trouble with his heart in the last few years his final illness was sudden and of such brief duration that word of his death came as a great shock to all who knew him. Mr Craig was born at Rosetta and was the only child of the late Adam Craig and Margaret McGonigal. He was brought up on the Lanark Township farm and occupied it until some 19 years ago when he purchased a farm in Ramsay Township from John Neilson and the Misses Neilson. This farm is now occupied by a son Ross. Mr and Mrs Craig having moved into Almonte nine years ago and purchased the present family home, corner of Elgin and Country streets, from the late Mrs John Cumming. For some years the late Mr Craig had acted as clerk of the session of Bethany Church and as secretary of the Ramsay Farmers' Club. He was a quiet man who made a point of attending to his own affairs, a good farmer who knew the meaning of hard, conscientious work and a fine neighbour. He will be greatly missed by many friends and former neighbours in Lanark, Ramsay, Almonte and other parts of the district. Mr Craig is survived by his wife, formerly Mary Ann Arnott, a daughter of the late Mr and Mrs James Arnott of Lanark Township and by a son and daughter, namely, A.R. Craig of Ramsay and Mrs J.B. Neilson (Elsie) of Ramsay. There are also six grandchildren, three in each of the families
