"Death of an old Beckwith Resident. We are requested this week to publish the death of the late Alexander Cameron, who died at his residence, Carleton Place, Thursday, 4th August, after a painful illness of ten months, at the age of 67 years and 7 months. Mr. Cameron was born and brought up on a farm on the 7th line of Beckwith, now owned by Mr. Henderson, and it was on this farm deceased spent his boyhood and all his manhood, excepting a few years. He sold his place and removed to Carleton Place, where he bought a comfortable dwelling house and property near the Junction, and spent the remainder of his days there. He suffered terribly at times, yet he bore his trouble with christian patience, and resting alone on the finished work of Christ for his soul's safety, he passed victoriously away from this World. He was a hard working man till within some months of his death, and it may be said of him what was said of man at the beginning: he earned his bread by the sweat of his brow. He leaves a widow and five of a family, all of whom were about him the last hours of his life. His daughters are Mrs. McTavish, of North Elmsley, Mrs. D. Stewart, of Carleton Place. The youngest is at home, and unmarried. His eldest son, John, is a constant employee of Edwards and Cos. The youngest son is head and worthy clerk of Mr. Cole, hardware merchant, Carleton Place. His family are all well-doing and are much respected. His sons-in-law are Mr. John McTavish, of North Elmsley Mr. D. Stewart, of Carleton Place - both men of temperate and Christian character, widely known and highly respected in the community in which they reside. Com."
