  	1902, Friday August 22, The Almonte Gazette front page ?b?Mr George Stewart?/b? Nearly six years ago Mr Geo Stewart, of the seventh line, Ramsay, suffered from a slight shock of paralysis but from this he recovered to some extent, though he never regained his former activity and vigour. About a year later he suffered from a recurrence of the trouble, but much more severely, and for about five years he had been confined to bed, unable to speak intelligibly, and with little power to help himself in any way. But through all these years he patiently bore his suffering until Sunday last when death resulted from the effects of the trouble. The deceased was born and spent his whole life on the farm upon which he died, his father, the late James Stewart (who in his lifetime was a respected elder of St Andrew's church), having also lived and died upon the same farm. Mr Stewart wife predeceased him several years. Of the family there are six daughters ? Mrs Jas Laronde, Mrs D Laronde, Mrs Rivett and Miss Maggie, at Arnprior, and Misses Minnie and Aggie at home ? and one son, James. at home. Of the brothers and sisters of the deceased, Robert lives in Ramsay, John in Ross township, in Renfrew county, Mary (Mrs Jas Stewart), is in Manitoba, and Agnes, also married, is in western Ontario. Another sister, Isabella, (Mrs Buchanan Paterson), is dead. The funeral took place on Tuesday, and notwithstanding that farmers were so busy the funeral was a very large one. The remains were interred in the Presbyterian cemetery at Clayton. The deceased was member of the Clayton Presbyterian church and was much respected for many excellent qualities of both head and heart. 1902, Friday August 29, The Almonte Gazette page 8 ?b?The Late Robt Stewart (George -- a Typo ?) ?/b?Through an unfortunate misunderstanding of information given the Gazette last week, the obituary notice of the late George Stewart was inaccurate in some particulars. The late Mr Stewart was born on the farm on the seventh line of Ramsay on which his father, the late Jas Stewart, resided, and on which Mr Robt Stewart, now lives. He afterward moved onto the farm on the sixth line on which his grandfather, Mr Brown, had lived, and here he resided until his death. About six years ago he suffered from a slight stroke of paralysis, and about a year later from another one, which affected his speech to some extent, making it difficult for him to speak intelligibly, but his was able to be around and take a share in the work on the farm, until a short time before his decease, when he suffered from a recurrence of the disease which resulted in his health. (Mr Stewart wife predeceased him several years. Of the family there are six living daughters ? Mrs Jas Laronde, Mrs D. Laronde, Mrs Rivett and Miss Annie, at Arnprior, and Misses Minnie and Aggie, at home ? one son, James, at home. Of the brothers and sisters of the deceased, James the oldest, lives in Winnipeg; Robert, on the homestead in Ramsay; John, in Litchfield, Que; Mary (Mrs Jas Stewart), near Gladstone, Manitoba and Agnes (Mrs Creighton), at Wingham. Another sister, Isabella, (Mrs Buchanan Paterson), is dead.
