  	1914, Friday, March 13,The Almonte Gazette front page Mrs Wm Paterson At the age of 82 years, active and industrious almost to the last, and exhibiting a wonderful vitality, Mrs Wm Paterson of Ramsay, on Monday, passed quietly away to the life beyond, for which she had so earnestly striven and so longingly looked forward to. She was born in Ayrshire, Scotland, on July 14th, 1832, in a house adjoining that of Robert Burns, Scotland's much loved bard, whose wife was a first cousin of Mrs Paterson. She came to Canada from Glasgow, Scotland, where she had lived for some time, in Nov 1855, and was married on Dec 31st, 1857, to Mr Wm Paterson, on the farm "Rose Hill" on which her husband, who is now 84 years of age,and two sons still reside. Here Mr and Mrs Paterson lived to celebrate the 56th anniversary of their marriage on New Year's eve, 1913. The union thus formed, was blessed by a family of ten children. Of these, James B., was killed while running an engine for stamp machine in Mexico, on June 31st, 1904; Geo E., is on the farm; Agnes W., died in infancy; Wm C. is on the farm; Robert M., at Luseland, Sask; Dr T.R., in Almonte; Mary M., and David W. died of scarlet fever in 1878; Hugh died in infancy, and Dr John H. is at Bow Island, Alta. The deceased was one of a family of twelve, eight of whom came to Canada, and of whom George Paterson of Almonte is the only surviving member. The late Mrs Paterson was a Presbyterian in religion, and was a close and consistent follower of her Lord and Master, in whom her fullest trust was reposed. The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon to the eighth line cemetery vault, and was one of the largest seen in Ramsay for some time, and was a worthy tribute to a worthy woman. The services were conducted by Rev Mr Merrilees of Blakeney, and the pallbearers were chosen from among the elders of the Clayton and Blakeney Presbyterian congregation.
