?b?The Late Mary A. Hamilton?/b?
On Tuesday, at 11 a.m., the white winged messenger entered the home of Mr D. Hamilton, bearing away the spirit of his youngest daughter, Mary, at the early age of nineteen years. The news of her death came as a sudden shock, causing a wave of the deepest sympathy from all citizens towards this much respected family. The deceased had been ailing for some months, and on the advice of her physician, she was taken to St Luke's hospital, Ottawa, where everything was done to relieve her pain and prolong life, but without avail. She was brought home Saturday, and gradually became weaker until the day of her death. Mary was beloved by all for her sweet disposition and her upright Christian life. In all her illness she was bright and cheerful, never complaining, and her death is a blow to her parents. The funeral took place on Thursday at 2 p.m, to the eighth line cemetery, Rev Mr Bennet conducting the services. Beautiful flowers, in bouquets, wreaths and sprays were received from kind and sympathetic friends in Almonte, Ottawa and Wakefield.
