?b?Mr Gilbert Forgie?/b?
Mr Gilbert Forgie had been suffering for some time from cancer of the stomach, and had been gradually growing weaker, until the end came on Friday, a welcome release to him from the suffering he endured with fortitude and patience, tenderly cared for by his daughter, Miss A.J. Forgie, and his granddaughter, Miss M. Cavers. The late Mr Forgie, who was in his 85th year, was born in Lanark township, a son of the late Gilbert Forgie, and one of a family of twelve children of whom five are still living. These are Mrs John Simpson of Winnipeg; David Forgie, of Cleveland, Ohio; Henry of Toronto; Robert in the west, and James in Almonte. A good many years ago he was married to Agnes Baird, and to them were born four children. Of these Mrs Thos Cavers is dead, and Robert of Ottawa, Graham on the homestead in Ramsay and Mrs P.E. Young of Sault Ste Marie, are still living. His first wife died quite a number of years ago, and he was married again, to Jane Dunfield, who died about sixteen years ago. To them were born three children, Jas G., at Renfrew, and Miss A.J. and David at the home in Almonte, to which Mr Forgie came about twenty-five years ago. The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon to the eighth line cemetery, and was largely attended, quite a number of relatives and friends coming from a distance to be present. The services were condcuted by Rev Mr Rattee. The pallbearers were sons of Mr Forgie's old neighbours when he was in Ramsay ? John Stewart, Donald Stewart, John Neilson, John W. Neilson, M. Aikenhead and J. McFarlane. The late Mr Forgie was a man of public spirit, and he took a deep interest in matters that were for the general good. he was an ardent Liberal in politics, and was one of the oldest officials of the North Lanark Agricultural Society, of which he had been an honourary director since advancing years compelled his retirement from the active list. But of all the interests that engaged his attention none were so dear to his heart as his church. he was a member of the Presbyterian church, and was one of the most active and generous in building of St John's and was always a liberal contributor to its support. he was always an active and energetic man, and it is only a few weeks since his familiar figure had been missed from the Express wagon as his son went his daily rounds

DEATH'S HARVEST
Mr Jas Forgie
Another of Almonte's very oldest residents has responded to the inevitable call that comes sooner or later to every one, and Mr James Forgie passed beyond this world's recall. On Saturday he had been about as usual but on Sunday he was taken very ill, and on Wednesday morning he quietly slept away. The late Mr Forgie was born in Ramsay township on April 1st, 1833, a son of the late Graham Forgie and Ann Gemmill. He came to Almonte when he was a young man, and here he engaged in occupation of one kind or another. He was a wagon-maker by trade, but even in those early days real estate divisions were attractive and he purchased the land on the northern end of the town through which Ottawa street is today the main thoroughfare. From the proceeds of this transaction he was enabled to embark in other enterprises in which his efforts also proved successful, and aided him in making ample provision for his declining years. In 1870 he erected the brick store and dwelling, in which he carried on business for a number of years. On May 5th, 1855, Mr Forgie was married to Miss Isabella Thomlinson, and to them twelve children were born, on two of whom are now living. These are Mr J.G. Forgie, barrister, of Pembroke, and Mrs A.E. Teskey of Winnipeg. On May 5, 1905, Mr and Mrs Forgie celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage. Two years later Mrs Forgie was called away, and on August 29, 1911, Mr Forgie was again married to Georgina G. Smith, who survives him. Two brothers of Mr Forgie's are still living, Henry at Toronto and Robert at Portage la Prairie. The funeral took place this Thursday afternoon at 3 o'clock to the Presbyterian cemetery and was attended by a large number, both of townspeople and others, whose respect and esteem Mr Forgie had won. The late Mr Forgie was a life-long member of the Presbyterian church, and was one of the staunch supporters of and liberal contributors to St. John's church, when it did not enjoy prosperity that marked its later years. No appeal for truly religious or charitable purposes was ever made in vain to him, and very few knew the amount of the benefactions dispensed by him, as he put into actual practice the scriptural injuction, "Let not thy right hand know what thy left hand doeth." He was possessed of very quiet and retiring disposition, and it was only as one was taken into his confidence that the true strength of his character became known. He was upright and straightforward in his dealings, in which his word was his bond. His passing away was the closing of a life that any person might well covet possession of.

James married Isabella Thomlinson on 7 May 1855 in Ramsay Township, Lanark County, Canada West. Isabella (daughter of John Thomlinson, Sr. and Isabel Forgie) was born on 4 Mar 1835 in Innisville, Drummond Township, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; died on 9 May 1907 in Almonte, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried on 12 May 1907 in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Ramsay, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

Mrs Wm Simpson
Death claimed another old resident of Ramsay on Monday last in the person of Mrs Wm Simpson, whose home for quite a few years has been on the ninth line, near Almonte. Deceased had not enjoyed robust health for some time, and when she was seized with pneumonia just a week before her death she lacked the necessary vitality to combat the disease. Deceased was a daughter of the late Graham Forgie, and was born in Lanark township a few miles from Lanark village, one of a family of twelve, six of whom are still living. These are Messrs Gilbert and James of Almonte, Mrs John Simpson in Winnipeg, David in Cleveland, Robert in Ottawa and Henry in Toronto. Those who are dead are John, William, Mrs Campbell, Thomas and Andrew, and now the subject of this notice. Deceased was married to Mr Wm Simpson over fifty-five years, and to them twelve children were born, two of whom died in infancy. Those living are Chas, at White Lake; Mrs Alex Scott and Mrs W.J. Scott, at Sault Ste Marie; Mrs Dodds in the west; Mrs John Metcalf, William and John in Ramsay; and Misses Martha, Belle and Herb at home. The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon to the eighth line cemetery and was attended by a large number of friends and neighbours. The deceased was a woman of a quiet disposition, but possessed of kindly heart which made her a welcome sympathetic visitor where trouble was until failing health prevented such ministrations. She was a member of St John's church, but has been unable to attend the services for some time, but enjoyed such ministrations as her pastor could impart. Her life was one of simplicity, and was lived in a clear hope of the home beyond.

Mrs James Forgie
Last Saturday Mrs James Forgie was around as usual, bright, cheerful and happy, going about her household duties in her customary manner, and this (Thursday) afternoon she passed on to test the realities of the great beyond. On Sunday morning she was taken suddenly ill and all through Sunday and Monday her condition occasioned grave apprehension. On Wednesday, however she apparently was slightly better and brighter, but the improvement proved to be only temporary, and this morning it was seen she was rapidly nearing the end. Mr and Mrs John G. Forgie came down from Pembroke on Tuesday, and word was sent to Mrs Teskey at Winnipeg, who is coming by today's Winnipeg train, but too late to see her mother alive. Mrs Forgie whose maiden name was Isabella Thomlinson, was born near Innisville, a daughter of the late John and Jessie Thomlinson, and on the 7th of May, 1855, was married to Mr James Forgie, Rev J.K. Smith, then Presbyterian minister at the eighth line, Ramsay, performing the ceremony. Of a number of children only two are now living, Mr John G. Forgie of Pembroke, and Mrs A.E. Teskey (Miss Leila) of Winnipeg, the others having died in infancy. Mr and Mrs Forgie came to Almonte immediately after their marriage and have been residents here ever since, and during these fifty-two years have made many friends by their uniformly constant lives. Mrs Forgie was always of a bright and buoyant disposition and many of the trials of life were lightened by her cheerful spirit. Just two years ago this week (May 12th) Mr and Mrs Forgie celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of their marriage and in all the company there was not a cheerier voice than hers. Since coming to Almonte Mr and Mrs Forgie were both workers in many a good cause, and in the Presbyterian church of which both were a members their activities found scope, Mrs Forgie being an encouragement and inspiration to all with whom she came into contact in the departments of work which she was most interested. She has for years been a life member of the W.F.M.S. of which organization she was for a number of years treasurer, and was one of its most liberal supporters. Mr Forgie and the son and daughter have the sincere sympathy of many warm friends. The funeral will take place on Saturday at 2.30 p.m., to the eighth line cemetery. Service will be held at the home at 2 o'clock

Isabella married James Graham Shaw Forgie on 7 May 1855 in Ramsay Township, Lanark County, Canada West. James (son of Graham Forgie and Ann Norris Gemmill) was born on 1 Apr 1833 in Ramsay Township, Lanark County, Canada West; died on 28 Jun 1916 in Almonte, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried on 29 Jun 1916 in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Ramsay, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.
