Very Sudden Death
Last Monday Mr. John Lang, whose farm adjoins Almonte, was working about his home, in better health than usual, as he had been suffering for a time from rheumatism and a slight trouble of the heart, and when Mrs Lang went to bed at ten o'clock that night she left him reading beside the stove, as he intended removing the ashes before retiring. Mrs Lang awoke between two and three next morning, and finding that her husband was not abed, divined that something was wrong. Hurrying down, she found Mr. Lang in a kneeling position beside the stove ? dead! He had been fixing the stove and before his task was competed the hand to death was upon him. Heart disease was doubtless the cause. The news was a terrible shock to the household, and scarcely less so to many in town, who ha the pleasure of meeting Mr Lang here the previous Friday, about as genial as ever, though bearing traces of his sickness. Deceased was one of Ramsay's best known and most respected farmers, and his death is regretted by all who knew him. An upright, honourable citizen, a kind friend and neighbour, and a model in his domestic relationships, has gone to his rest, and leaves a home in the deepest sorrow; but the household does not sorrow as those who are without hope ? they have the blessed assurance that they well meet again under brighter skies. Sixty-five years ago Mr. Lang was born on the farm in which he died, his father being the late Arthur Lang, who came from Scotland to these parts in 1821, with the first settlers. Over forty years ago he married Jane Gilmour, daughter of the late James Gilmour, who was also one of the pioneer settlers. Of their children four survive, viz.: Henry and Alvina at home; Mrs Throop (Jessie), of Ottawa; Albert A., who is studying medicine at McGill College, Montreal. To add to the misfortunes of the family, Mrs Lang has been ill of late with pleurisy, and her son Albert is in an hospital at Montreal very seriously ill with typhoid. In their time of trouble Mrs Lang and family have the sincere sympathy of the whole community. Mr Lang was a charter member of Mississippi Lodge No 147 A.F. & A.M., Almonte, and the members of that lodge turned out in a body to attend the funeral which took place this (Thursday) afternoon, to the eighth line cemetery and was very largely attended. Rev A.S. Grant, B.D., pastor of St. Andrew's congregation (of which deceased was a member), was the officiating clergyman.

John married Margaret Gilmour in 1855. Margaret (daughter of James Gilmour and Ann Cherry) was born on 6 May 1824 in Ramsay Twp, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; died on 27 Nov 1913 in Ramsay Twp, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Almonte, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.

Mrs John Lang Passes Away
At nine o'clock this Thursday morning the spirit of Mrs John Lang took its flight back to Him who gave it. She was born in Ramsay, on the eighth line, was a daughter of the late James Gilmour, and was 88 years of age. Her father was one of the Scotch settlers who came to this section in 1821 and he settled on lot 13 in the 7th concession of Ramsay, but afterwards removed to Western Ontario, settling in Stanley township in the county of Huron, where he bought a farm, and spent the balance of his life. Mrs Lang however returned to this section when about 18 years of age, and in 1855 she was married to Mr John Lang, the marriage taking place in the old stone church on the eighth line. They live on Almonte for a while, where Mr Lang was operating a sawmill on the present site of the electric light station. Later they went to Bruce Co. but returned to Almonte after seven years, in 1870, and afterwards lived on the farm by the riverside, which has since been the family home. Of the family born to them three are still living. These are Mrs Throop of Ottawa, Henry at home, Dr A.A.J. Lang at Sanborn, N.D., Amelia, Lavina and Robert are dead, as well as Mr Lang, who died in 1895. Mrs Lang was one of the oldest, if not the very oldest resident in these parts, and had lived to see the country changed from a dense unbroken forest to its present condition of wide spreading farms and comfortable homes. She endured her share of the toil and hardship of the pioneer days, an could talk most interestingly of the early days and their hard experiences of recent months which necessitated treatment at the hospital last winter, she retained her faculties to a wonderful degree until about three weeks ago, since when she has gradually weakened until death came this morning. The funeral takes place on Saturday at 2.30 pm., to the eighth line cemetery.
