    Mr. John T. Somerville
    On Sunday last the final respects of the neighbourhood were paid to our well respected citizen in the person of the late John T. Somerville, who was the eldest son of John Somerville and Catharine Ballantyne. John T., who lived the most of his life in this locality except for some time spent in lumber camps and in the early manhood years in railway construction, was Warden for a term. In politics he was a staunch Liberal and in religion an attendant of the former Congregational Church and afterward the United Church. In 1890 he was married to Elizabeth Ann Rodger who predeceased him in 1937. To them was born a family of six children: Jennie (Mrs. David McFarlane of Walton), Arthur of Toronto, W.R. of Perth, Eric of Lanark.

    Mrs. J. T. Somerville
    On Saturday evening the last call to pass on to the home beyond, came to one of our older and well respected citizens of our community in the person of Mrs. John T. Somerville, who for some time had been in falling health. Elizabeth Ann Rodger was the fourth child of Wm. Rodger and Jane Stewart and was born Nov. 1858, on the farm at Arklan where her brother D. S. Rodger now lives. On October 8th, 1890, she was united in marriage to John T. Somerville and they made their home in this community. To them were granted a family of six children, Jennie, Mrs. David McFarlane; Arthur, William, Rodger of Perth; Eric, Lanark; Ida C. of Lyons; Helen, Mrs. Alva Rintoul of Ramsay. Mrs. Somerville, while one of the busy home-loving kind, was a faithful, loving wife and mother, yet she always found time to attend those, causes which stand for the highest and best in community life, as long as her health permitted. She was a member for a number of years in the W.M.S., a member of the Ladies' Aid and for many years an active member of the W. I. We extend our sympathy to all those bereaved, the husband and the family, also her sisters, Isabella, Mrs. Wm. J. Affleck of Toronto; Mary, Mrs. Geo, Stead of Hopetown; Maud and a adopted sister, Mrs. M. Darling of New York, and one brother, David S. on the homestead. The funeral services were conducted on Tuesday afternoon by her pastor, Rev. J. C. Lowrie. Many floral tributes were in evidence from W.M.S., Hunters' Club, W. I. and friends and relatives. Interment was made in Greenwood cemetery at Middleville.
