A number of older residents of Galt assembled at the CPR station on Monday afternoon last to meet the 4:20 train from Toronto, on which were brought the remains of Mrs. Alex Young, widow of the late Alex Young, for many years school-teacher in Galt, but more lately of Berlin and Montreal. The deceased lady was a daughter of the late Hugh Keachie, of Galt, her surviving sisters being Mrs. Brodie, of Ingersoll, and Mrs. Wm.
