The Late Mrs. Steele
The angel of death which hovers over humanity descended to this community last week and claimed the bright young life of Jessie Gilmour Naismith, beloved wife of Mr. Wm. Steele, of Claysmore, Alta., at the early age of forty-seven years. Deceased, who was the eldest daughter of the late Peter Naismith and Catherine Gilmour, was born in Ramsay township and spent her life until her marriage to Mr. Steele about nine years ago, when she went west to reside at Claysmore, Alta. About for years ago she was taken ill with a serious form of paralysis and came east to get the best medical attention and loving care but all was of no avail and death released her from all suffering on Friday. The late Mrs Steele was of a bright cheerful disposition, making the most of life although it had been darkened for years by suffering and affliction, all of which was borne with Christian patience and resignation. She leaves to mourn her husband (who was with her when she passed away), a little daughter, Kathleen, her mother, one sister and seven brothers. These are Margaret and Albert at home; Peter of Ramsay; Wm. of Denver, Col; Welland, of San Francisco, Cal.; John, Edmonton, Alta.; Jas, Heward, Sask,; Lawrence, of Morse, Sask., all of whom have the deepest sympathy of many friends in their sad bereavement. The funeral which took place from Mr. Albert Naismith's residence on the 9th line on Sunday afternoon, was very largely attended. The funeral services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Turner of Montreal, in the absence of Rev. S.G. Brown, interment being made in the 8th line cemetery.
Jessie married William Mostyn Steele in 1907. William was born in 1868 in Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; died on 14 Jul 1957 in Vermilion, Lloydminster Census Division, Alberta, Canada. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
