?b?Mr. William Cochrane
?/b?William Cochrane, well known business man of Almonte, died Sunday morning at his home, Bridge street, at the age of 57 years. Mr. Cochrane was widely known and esteemed throughout the district, and his death has occasioned sincere regret. He had been in poor health for some time, but it was not until ten days ago that his condition became critical. Yesterday he appeared to be improving, but this morning he suffered a relapse and passed away. Mr. Cochrane was born in the township of Darling, a son of Mrs. William Cochrane and the late Mr. Cochrane. He married Miss Myra Pretty of Clayton, and they resided in that village until moving to Almonte 14 years ago. Since that time the deceased conducted a flour and feed business at Bridge and Water streets. Mr. Cochrane attended Bethany United Church and was a member of the board of managers of that church. He was a member of Mississippi Lodge No. 147, A.F. and A.M., and also of Grand Chapter, No. 61, R.A.M.G.P.C. Surviving besides his widow, and his mother, are two daughters, Edna and Laura, both at home; seven sisters, Mrs. N. Drynan, of Clayton; Mrs. George Cox of Carleton Place; Mrs. Jack Ryder of Morrisburg, Mrs. E. Austin of Minto, Man.; Mrs. T. Dial of Calgary, Alta.; Mrs. William Fulton of Fort William, and Mrs. James McGregor of Almonte and four brothers, John of Elgin, Man.; Andrew, Antler, Sask.; James and Thomas of Almonte.
