MRS. T. J. HORKINS PASSED AWAY SUDDENLY
The community was saddened on Thursday last to learn of the passing of a well-beloved lady in the person of Joanna L. Mahoney, wife of the late Thomas J. Horkins. Mrs. Horkins passed away very quietly on Thursday. Though in poor health for some time, her death was a surprise and a shock to the folk of town and country.
A lady of quiet manner, she had proven herself a friend to many and her friends in this community where she had spent over sixty years were accordingly numerous.
Born in Geneva, N.Y., in 1866, she came with her parents, the late Bartholomew Mahoney and Honora Walsh to Norwood, Ont., where she lived until her marriage to the late T. J. Horkins on February 12, 1889. Since that time she had resided in Campbellford. Mr. Horkins died in November, 1942.
A faithful member of St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church, her life was spent largely between her home and her church, both of which she loved most devotedly. She was a member of the Catholic Women's League.
Surviving are four sons, George F. Horkins, Detroit; W. B. Horkins, K.C, Toronto; Dr. Harold A. Horkins, Detroit; T. B. Horkins, K. C., Toronto, and two daughters, Mrs. V. Kelly and Mrs. A. J. Cook, both of Detroit. Another son, Capt. Richard E. Horkins, M.D. was killed in action in the First Great War.
The funeral service was conducted at St. Mary's Roman Catholic Church at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Nov. 12th. Conducting the service were Dean J. V. MacAuley, Lindsay; Father Jos. Collins, Cobourg; Father Moloney, Campbellford and Father John Coughlan, Peterborough. The last mentioned, a cousin of the family sang the Mass. Interment was in St. Mary's Cemetery.
The funeral service was very largely attended as friends from far and near gathered to pay their latest respects to the deceased lady. There were scores of beautiful floral tributes and hundreds of spiritual offerings in testimony to the esteem which Mrs. Horkins enjoyed in the eyes of those who knew her.
The active pallbearers were: Thomas O'Rourke, Wm. Masterson, Paul O'Sullivan, A. G. O'Shea, Walter Badgley and W. J. Callaghan. The Honorary pallbearers were: Hon. W. A. Goodfellow, Magistrate T. S.

Kelly and George Cook.
