Mr Chas A.R. Dulmage
A telegram to Mr John Dulmage, received on Wednesday evening, contained the announcement of the death of his son, Mr Chas A.R. Dulmage, which took place on Wednesday, at Bakersfield, Cal. Mr Dulmage had been greatly troubled with rheumatism for some time, and last February he went to California in the hope of being benefitted by the change. As a result of the treatment received and the effect of the climate he was gradually recovering, and was looking forward to return to Alberta in the near future, Only last week the most cheering word was received, but he was suddenly seized with pneumonia on Sunday, and Monday word came telling of his dangerous condition, which followed by the announcement of his death. The late Mr Dulmage was the only son of Mr and Mrs John Dulmage, and was born in Almonte thirty-seven years ago. He passed through the schools here, and after graduation from the high school her and the university at Kingston, he took up the study of law. On being called up to the Bar he entered into business with his uncle, the late Richard Dulmage, at Arnprior, and after his death he continued the practice there. About six years ago he was married to Miss Ida White, daughter of Mr T.R. White of Almonte, and to them two children were born, only the younger of whom, Gerald, aged four years is now living. After his marriage Mr Dulmage built for himself a fine home, elegantly finished and fitted in the most up-to-date manner. This he afterward sold, and erected a second home more to his liking. While in Arnprior, he made many friends, both because of professional and personal contact, and the expressions of sympathy and condolence received by his parents here testify to the extent and genuineness of the esteem in which he was held. Mrs Dulmage was with her husband, and ministered to him through his illness. The remains will be brought to Almonte for interment, but the date of the funeral has not yet been fixed. Much sympathy is felt for all concerned in the sad bereavement.
