Miss Elsie Drummond
The angel of death came with almost startling suddenness to Miss Elsie Drummond early on Tuesday morning. During the flu epidemic last fall [the Spanish Flue pandemic of 1918] she contracted the disease and never fully recovered. A couple of weeks ago she suffered a relapse and was thought to be making good recovery, when she was taken suddenly worse and passed away before medical aid could be obtained. The late Miss Drummond was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. S. Drummond of Ramsay, and was in her eighteenth year. Besides the sorrowing parents several brothers and sisters are left to mourn her early demise. These are Mrs. C. Greene, Kinburn, Misses Eva, Ada, Agnes and Masters Howard and Ralph at home; Harvey, of Smiths Falls; Wilbert, of Almonte. The funeral on Thursday was to the Presbyterian cemetery at the eighth line and was very largely attended by those wishing to show their sympathy for the bereaved ones. Rev. S. G. Brown conducted the services at the home and the grave.
