The Late James Nesbitt Hand: Deep gloom was cast over Leney and district in the passing of Mr. James Nesbitt Hand in a Saskatoon hospital. The late Mr. Hand was born at Hazeldean, Ont., on August 30th 1977, the son of the late Robert Hand and his wife Agnes Nesbitt, and received all his education there. After his marriage to Mamie Etta Boucher in 1902, he resided at Blackburn, Ont., until 1910, when he moved west, settling south of Leney, Sask., where he farmed extensively. He was predeceased by his wife in 1923, and by his eldest daughter, Hattie (Mrs. Clarence Featherstone) in 1945. Mr. Hand was an active member of the Perdue Lodge I.O.O.F. and of Tessier L.O.L. and the Black Chapter. He was also greatly interested in the Perdue Agricultural Society, serving as director. For many years he served as chairman of the board of trustees of Granville, S.D. The funeral took place from the Leney Auditorium on Saturday, Jan. 12th, with the Rev. George E. Major, B.A., L.Th., vicar of St. Mary's Church, Meota, Sask, an old family friend officiating. At the close of the service the last rites of the I.O.O.F. lodge were performed by Bros. Thomas Clayton, P.W.G., and D. Spencer, Chaplain. The large number of floral tributes attested to the high esteem in which the late Mr. Hand was held. The pallbearers were six nephews, Messrs. Otis Boucher, Carl, Edward and Clayton Boucher, Stewart and Victor Major. He leaves to mourn his loss seven sons and one daughter, Marjorie, (Mrs. Leonard Cathcart) of Leney, Percy of Leney, Ruglass of Rose Valley, Kenneth of Star City, Emerson of Leney, Albert of Leney, Garnet of Fendal and Selwyn of Leney; also 16 grandchildren and two brothers and two sisters, Thomas of Leney, Robert of Richmond, Ont., Mrs. Annie Boucher of Leney and Mrs. Albert E.
