James Cowie
The death occurred in the G. W. M. Hospital, Perth, on Tuesday, May 3, of Mr. James Cowie, of Balderson, aged 70 years. A patient sufferer, the late Mr. Cowie had been in failing health for about three years, but was only confined to hospital for the past three weeks. Born in Bathurst Township, he was the son of the late William Cowie and his wife, Margaret Kemp. Having spent 26 years as cheesemaker, Mr. Cowie was widely and favorably known throughout the community. The esteem in which he was held was evidenced by the large number of friends who gathered for the service on Thursday, May 5, in the Balderson United Church, which deceased regularly attended. He was a valued member of the church choir from his boyhood days, until health failed. The funeral service was conducted by Rev. G. A. Beatty of Balderson, burial taking place in Elmwood Cemetery, Perth. A favorite hymn, :Christ Is All in All" was rendered by Mr. Robert A. D. McTavish. Many beautiful floral offerings were received. The pallbearers were Messers. John Rintoul, Wilbert Cowie, Chas. Rintoul, nephews, and Gordon Spring, Walter McIntyre and R. S. McTavish. The late Mr. Cowie was married 27 years ago to Miss Elizabeth Rintoul who survives. Left to mourn his loss, besides his widow are four brothers, Isaac, of Ottawa, Robert, of Winnipeg, Frank, of Morden, Man., Nelson of Three Hills, Alta., one sister, Mrs. Gordon Spring of Perth and a cousin, Miss L. F. Cowie of Balderson. Those attending the funeral included friends from Ottawa, Chatsworth, Brockville, Almonte, Westport and the surrounding country."
