- Funeral services for William Fraser Campbell were held at the family home and at the Tilston United Church, on Saturday afternoon. Both services were conducted by Rev. Anthony Friebert.
Mr Campbell had been in indifferent health for some time and passed away on Thursday at the age of 58 years and one month. He was one of the early settlers coming to the district in 1892 with his parents. His kindly disposition earned him a wide circle of friends and as a neighbor he was highly respected, this being shown by the presence of many friends following the Church and the floral remembrances that banked the casket. He was born in Lanark County, Ont., on 28 February, 1885 and on coming west he lived with his parents in the Reston district, later settling nort of Tilston.
He married Elizabeth Cameron in December 1915, who survives him. Also four sons, Alex, Albert, William and Kenneth and two daughters, Jean of Winnipeg and Mrs mac Cairns of Tilson. He also has one brother, Peter, and a sister, Tena, both of Tilston.
Pall bearers were: L. Graham, T. Gould, H. Long, W. Smith, W. Mare and J. R. Matheson. Burial was made in the Tilston Cemetery.
