    " A week ago last night, John Stewart, 7th Concession Beckwith, near the lake, received a paralytic stroke from which he never really rallied and early yesterday morning - within a week - the strong man was not and his spirit departed. Mr. Stewart was born in Perthshire, Scotland and came to this country with a contingent of those sturdy Scotch settlers who came out in the early days. Deceased was a man of splendid physique and scarcely knew what illness was until the fatal shock came so quickly, ending his career.
    Mr. Stewart was twice married, the first being with Elizabeth (sic) McDougall and by whom four children were born, viz., Alexander now at home; Peter of Strathclaire, Manitoba; Mrs. R. S. Allen of Cooper, Ontario; and John who, it will be remembered, was accidentally killed while falling from a bridge in British Columbia six years ago.
    Mr. Stewart's second wife was Mary A. Lawford who survives him and by whom seven children were born all living: Mrs. J.D. Armstrong of Carleton Place; Mrs. John Stewart and Mrs. Ed Dewar of Crystal City, Manitoba; Mrs. Dopson of Ottawa and Thomas, Neil, Jennie and Bella at home.
    Mr. Stewart lived continuously in Beckwith. In religion he was Presbyterian and a member of Knox Church, Black's Corners. In politics he was a Reformer of the old school. He served his fellows in Council for two years and was a school trustee for many years. "
