DEATH'S TOLL
Obit. – Mrs A. Sutherland, sr.
In last week's Gazette mere mention was made of the death of Mrs Angus Sutherland, sr., who has passed away that morning after a year's suffering from a painful disease. The funeral took place on Saturday from her home with her son, Mr P.Y. Sutherland, to the eighth line cemetery, where her remains were laid beside those of her husband, who had predeceased her a little over ten years ago. The late Mrs Sutherland was a daughter of the late Peter Young, and was born on the farm on the seventh line, of Ramsay owned by Mr Steen Young before his removal to Almonte. She was married in 1863 to Mr Angus Sutherland, and went with him to the home where both spent the balance of their lives. The following family is still living: Angus on the farm adjoining the homestead; Peter Y., on the homestead, and with whom the mother had lived; David, in Batavia, Ill.; Jennie (Mrs Wm M. Young) of Detroit; Maggie, (Mrs (Dr.) Young), Smith Falls; and Alex., of New Britain, Conn. Brother and sisters of the deceased were William, Mrs John McCarter, A.E., Peter C., John, Mrs Cavers, Stephen, Robert, Andrew and Mrs John McFarlane. Of these the first three and Mrs Cavers are dead. All the children of Mrs Sutherland were present at the funeral except David and Alex., both of whom were home to see their mother shortly before she passed away. Among the friends from a distance were Mr Angus Sutherland from Eganville and Mr Robt. Young of Ottawa. The late Mrs Sutherland was a member of the Presbyterian church for a great many years and the pallbearers were six of the session of which her son, Mr Angus Sutherland, is a valued member. Mrs Sutherland was a women of strong physique, and cheerfully gave of her strength to help and encourage friends or neighbours. But was in her home amongst her family where the brightness and grace of her beautiful life shone at its best.
