Died:
Mrs Lindsay of upper Pakenham, who died on the 30th ult., after a couple of weeks illness from influenza, was born in Ruglin, Scotland, in the year 1807, and had reached the venerable age of 85 when the inevitable summons was received. She emigrated to Canada with her people seventy-two years ago, when she was 13 years of age.She arrived in Lanark Township in 1820; was married in March 1830; and lived on the present Lindsay homestead until her death. she possessed wonderful vitality, and but for the grippe might have added many years to her already long and useful life. Her husband several years her senior, survives, but we regret to learn that he is also a sufferer from the prevailing trouble, and is dangerousely ill. Their children are: Mrs Alex Duncan, of Wyoming; William, who is in Australia; Misses Mary and Lizzie, of Fargo, Dakota; James D., of Kars, Carleton County; Mrs James Marshall, of Oil Springs; and Miss Susan and Alexander Lindsay, on the homestead. For the half-century Mr and Mrs Lindsay have been among the most respected residents of Lanark County, and the sympathy of all is with the patriarchal husband in his sickness and bereavement, Keen regret is felt at the loss of each link in the chain that binds the present with the past, as in this case. Very few of the pioneers now remain to recount the traits and viciswsitudes through which they passed in the settlement and development of this part of the province. [Maiden Name: Jane DUNCAN]
