  	1901, Friday December 27, The Almonte Gazette front page A Child's Peculiar Death While partaking of dinner last Thursday noon, Willie, the five-year-old son of Mr and Mrs John Sutherland, of the Springfield section, swallowed a plum stone. Although the child had always experienced a difficultly in swallowing, this incident gave no cause for alarm until towards evening when the child became unable to swallow any food. Next morning his condition was unimproved and two town doctors were called in. They found it impossible to extricate the plum stone, which was firmly lodged in the gullet. Mr and Mrs Sutherland upon their advice took the child to St Luke's hospital, Ottawa, on the evening train, but he expired a few hours after entering the hospital. The remains were buried on Sunday last. Much sympathy is felt for Mr and Mrs Sutherland.
