    1913, Friday April 18 The Almonte Gazette front page
    Obit. ? Miss Margaret Edith Dunlop Gemmill
    Early last winter Lieut.-Col. Gemmill accompanied his
    younger daughter, Margaret Edith Dunlop, to California, in
    the hope that the change would be beneficial to her health.
    Unfortunately it was not, and on Friday of last week, April
    11th, she passed away in the Hotel Virginia, at Long Beach,
    Cal., where she was stopping with her sister, Winnifred.
    Arrangements were made for bring the body east for burial,
    and on Wednesday evening Lieut.-Col. Gemmill, Miss
    Gemmill and Mrs .A. Gemmill of Ottawa reached Almonte
    with the remains, and were met at the station by a number
    of friends. The body was taken to the home of Mrs M.
    Patterson, whence the funeral will take place on Friday
    afternoon at 3 o'clock to St. Andrew's church where service
    will be held, and afterward interment will be made in the
    family plot at the Eighth Line cemetery. Much sympathy is
    felt for the family, and especially for Mr Gemmill, upon
    whom the bereavement fall with added weight because of
    the camaraderie which exited between him and his
    daughter.
