There passed away at the homestead 12th concession of Ramsay on Wednesday morning, Dec 23rd, a well-known resident of Ramsay Twp., in the person of Mr. Samuel Drummond. Deceased was the fourth child in a family on nine and was born on Nov 24, 1858, son of the late Peter Drummond and Jane Dunlop of Lanarkshire, Scotland. Mr. Drummond was twice married. In 1888 he married Mary Burns of Ramsay who died in 1897. To this union, seven children were born, Harvey L. of Ottawa, Eva J. (Mrs. Melville Paul) of Ramsay, and Iva N. (Mrs. Clifford Greene) of Fitzroy; Violet, Albert and Alberta died in infancy and Wilbur L. died in 1928. In 1900 Mr. Drummond married Mary Paterson, second daughter of the late Buchanan Paterson and his wife, Isabella Stewart, who survives. To this marriage were born five children, Howard A., Ralph, Agnes and Aida at home. Elsie I. died in 1919. Also surviving are one brother and sister, Dr. Peter Drummond of Grant, Michigan, and Mrs. T. J. Reid, of Almonte. The late Mr. Drummond's boyhood and early manhood days were spent on the farm. For a period of upwards of 15 years he operated a livery business in Almonte, and returned to his farm in 1894, where he had since resided. He had not enjoyed good health for a year prior to his death. His passing severs another link with the older residents of the community and he will be missed sadly by a large circle of relatives and friends. The funeral, which was private, was held on Thursday afternoon from the home and interment was in the Auld Kirk Cemetery. Rev. C. D. McLellan, pastor of Bethany United Church, of which deceased was a member, officiated. The pallbearers were: David J. Drummond, John Chapman, Duncan Stewart, Harvey S. Paterson of Ramsay, Lawson Stewart, Arnprior, and Geo. C. Drummond of Bristol, Que. ------------------------------ Samuel's livery business (keeping horses and rigs/carriages for hire) was called "The Popular Livery", with ads that promised "FIRST CLASS HORSES, COMFORTABLE RIGS AND GOOD EQUIPMENT. Every attention paid to the wants of our patrons. We have several quiet and reliable horses, suitable for ladies' or children's driving."
