  Death	8 Jan 1877	Ramsay Township, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada
  	1877, Friday January 12, The Almonte Gazette, page 2 Died. At his father's residence, in Ramsay, on the 8th inst- Mr. Chas. A. Black, in the twenty-fifth year of his age. The early death of this young man leaves a blank in a wide social circle in which he was deservedly respected. The deceased was the third son of James Black, Esq., Deputy Reeve of Ramsay, and Jeannette, his wife. Early in life he entered upon mercantile pursuits in the service of Mr. Jas. Reeves, in Eganville, and after a two years stay there entered the employ of Mr. J. H. Wylie, of this village, where he continued until failing health compelled him to withdraw. His attention to business and his employer's interests opened to him the highest position in the establishment, while his uniform courtesy, and desire to please, won for him the respect of a large circle of friends. For some time it has been evident that he was passing away from earth, all human remedies proving futile to arrest the progress of disease. He possessed his consciousness to the last and gave evidence that his affliction had been sanctified; "Jesus is precious." being amongst his last utterances. The very large concourse of people attending the funeral on Wednesday last proved the estimation in which the family in general and the deceased in particular was held. He is gone from all he loved on earth To him who died our souls to save 'Tis but the form of him we loved That rests within the silent grave.
