? Last Friday the many friends of Mrs Geo Graham, jr., were shocked to hear of her death, which took place about noon. The deceased had been suffering from an attack of bronchitis a couple of weeks before her death but her friends though she was slowly recovering until a few hours before the end came. Her maiden name was Mary Ellen McGill, and her death is the first break in the family of Mr and Mrs John McGill. She was a lady of sterling character and of a kind and loving disposition and was a member of the Presbyterian church here. Death at any age and under any circumstances is both sad and painful, but it is doubly so when, as in this case, the one cut off is in the vigour of life. She left a young daughter, 8 months old. The funeral which took place on Sunday, at 1.30 p.m. from her husband's residence to the eighth line cemetery, was one of the largest ever seen in this section, testifying to the universal esteem and to the deep sympathy felt for the bereaved husband and other friends. The religious services were conducted by the Rev F. Miller. The pall-bearers were Messrs: Wesley McCann, Samuel McAdam, John Hawes, Greville, Toshack, William Snedden, jr., and Alex Barker.

Mary married George Thomas Milton Graham in 1903. George was born on 21 Jan 1870 in Huntley Township, Carleton County, Ontario, Canada; died on 11 Apr 1967 in Manotick, North Gower Township, Carleton County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Ramsay, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.
