  	1916, Friday June 30, The Almonte Gazette page 4 DEATHS At Almonte, on Friday, June 23rd, Charles B. Miller, in his 66th year. 1916, Friday June 30, The Almonte Gazette page 4 DEATH'S HARVEST Obit ? Mr C.B. Miller The rider of the White Horse has again entered an Almonte home, and borne away the spirit of its head. Mr Chas B. Miller had for some time suffered from ailment which refused to respond to skill and care, and on Friday, June 23rd, he passed away in his 66th year. The late Mr Miller, who was born in Perth, came to Almonte with his father about the year 1869 or 70, and has since had his home here. He served his apprenticeship as machinist in a foundry and machine shop on the site of the Almonte Knitting Co's present factory, and afterwards was employed in various capacities along that line of work. On November 25th, 1879, he was married to Miss Helen McQuarrie, who, with members of the family born to them, is still living. These are Charles, who had been in the west but returned home before his father's death, Thos, Agnes, Nellie and Jean. One brother of the deceased, Mr Thos Miller, of Toronto, survives. Two sisters, (Mrs W.A. Toshack and Agnes) and one brother, (James), are dead. The late Mr Miller was for many years a member of Mississippi Lodge A.F. & A.M., and was at his death the oldest past master of the lodge. The funeral, on Sunday afternoon, was held under Masonic auspices, and there was not only a large turn out of members of the local lodge, but others were as visiting brethren. Rev S.G. Brown conducted service at the house, which was followed by the burial service of the lodge, and also took part in the service at the grave. The floral tributes were profuse and beautiful.
