Daniel Shaw Passes Away at Pembroke After a Long Illness
Mr Daniel Shaw, of Pembrooke, for many years a prominent businessman of Almonte, died on Wednesday in his 70th year. He had been ill for some time. He passed away at the Cottage Hospital, Pembroke. He was born at Lake Dore, near Eganville, where his father, a native of Aberdeen in Scotland, was a miller and also owned a mill at Beachburg. After leaving school Daniel went to Pembroke to learn the business of a hardware merchant and entered the employ of Dunlop and Company. He came to Almonte when quite young and entered business for himself, soon earning a reputation for keen business sense and integrity. He occupied the store which is still operated as a hardware business by Mr John Taylor. He was very enterprising and besides his hardware store, he owned a sawmill at Madawaska, was half owner with Mr J.B. Wylie in a woollen manufacturing mill in Almonte, and started a tile factory. After his wife's death over twelve years ago he gave up business and went to reside with a brother at Dauphin, Man. For the last six years he lived with his sister at Pembroke, Mrs Thomas Mackie. Mrs Shaw's maiden name was Margaret Baird. Her father was a farmer and her mother was a sister of the late Hon George Bryson. She died in 1910. The funeral took place on Thursday morning. A service was held at Pembroke by Rev Mr Blakely, the Presbyterian minister there, and the remains were conveyed to Almonte where interment was made in the Presbyterian cemetery on the eighth line of Ramsay. The pallbearers were: Messrs Alex Miller, P.J. Young, John Neilson, T.J. Reid, John Taylor and W. West. He leaves four brothers ? Alexander, at Grand Forks, North Dakota; James and Thomas, of Dauphin, Manitoba, and John of Lake Dore. He leaves one sister ? Mrs Thomas Mackie, of Pembroke. Col H.J. Mackie, now in Russia, former M.P. for North Renfrew is a nephew.
