  	1902, Friday September 12, The Almonte Gazette page 4 DEATHS In Ramsay, on Sept 5th, Laura May, daughter of Mr J.W. Neilson, aged 18 years and 6 months. 1902, Friday September 12, The Almonte Gazette page 5 Appleton News ? We deeply regret to chronicle the death of a young lady in our midst, in the person of Miss Laura May Neilson, whose spirit took its flight on Friday night of last week at the early age of 18 years and 6 months. The deceased young lady contacted a cold last winter, which settled on her lungs, and notwithstanding all that medical aid could do she kept gradually going down, till finally the end came. Laura was of a bright disposition and the only daughter of Mr and Mrs John W. Neilson, another little girl having died about nine years ago. Deceased was confined to bed for a short time only during her sickness, as at times she was able to be up, and last Friday morning was able to sit up for a short time. All the family approached the bedside as the end drew near, and she said goodbye to each one of them, her last words being "Asleep in Jesus." The father, mother and five brothers remain to mourn the loss of a loving daughter and sister. The funeral took place Monday afternoon from her father's residence to the eighth line cemetery and was largely attended. The pallbearers were Messrs J.A. McGreagor, John Woods, John Struthers. Robert Aitken, Edger Cavers and E.H. Turner, Mr and Mrs Neilson and family have the heartfelt sympathy of a large circle of friends in their sad bereavement.
