Mrs Buchanan
Death claimed a life at Cedar Hill at Cedar Hill on Saturday when Margaret Wood, relict of J.W. Buchanan, was called to the great beyond. The deceased had been in failing health for the past six months, owing to a gradual declension of her physical powers, and the end came when her strength had gone. She was a daughter of the late Walter Wood of Pakenham township, who died about eight years ago, her mother being a daughter of the late Peter Young, of Ramsay. the deceased was married about thirtyfive years ago to Mr Buchanan, who was then a resident of Perth, but afterwards removed to Utica, N.Y. where he died over twenty five years ago. After his death Mrs Buchanan returned to Cedar Hill and has since lived with her brother, Mr Wm Y. Wood. four children, two sons and two daughters, were born to Mr and Mrs Buchanan – William, who lives at Cedar Hill, and John, who is also at Cedar Hill at present, and Mary and Aggie, who live with their aunt, Mrs Edwards, at Ottawa. The funeral took place on Monday afternoon to the eighth line cemetery, and was largely attended by friends and relatives who assembled to do honour to the dead. The pallbearers were the two sons of the deceased, Messrs John and William Buchanan, and four of her nephews, Messrs Taylor and Edwards, of Ottawa, and Jas and John Wood. Mrs Buchanan, who was seventy years of age, was the eldest of her father's family of six daughters and one son, and her death is the first break among the children. The others are Mrs Jas Barker, Ramsay; Mrs Taylor, Ottawa; Miss Janet with her brother; William Y., of Cedar Hill; Mrs Edward and Miss Jane, Ottawa. The deceased was a woman of quiet disposition, possessed of a sterling character and ready helpfulness, which won for her love and respect. The relatives and friends have the sympathy of the community in their bereavement.
