Obituary
?b?Mrs W.C. Pollock?/b?
There entered into rest at Almonte on Sunday, December 8, a lifelong resident of the town in the person of Mrs. William Caldwell Pollock . Deceased had not enjoyed good health for some years but her condition only became acute about one week prior to her death.
Born in Almonte, Mrs. Pollock was the eldest daughter of the late John King Cole and his wife Frances Mott. She was educated in local schools and in 1890 married William Caldwell Pollock who survives. In September of this year she and her husband celebrated their golden wedding.
Besides her husband there are left to mourn, two sons, Frank J. Pollock of Windsor and William W. Pollock, KC, crown attorney for Lanark County, Carleton Place. Another son died at an early age. Also surviving are one brother Holland H. Cole and a sister Mrs. Harold Jamieson, both of Almonte. A brother Douglas and a sister Maud predeceased her.
Mrs. Pollock was a devout member of Bethany United Church and, until failing health prevented, took a very active part in the affairs of the church, particularly in the Ladies' Aid Society and the Women's Missionary Society of which she was a life member since 1917.
The funeral was held from the family residence on Elgin Street, on Tuesday, Dec 10, when a large nmber of friends and relatives paid tribute to one who was highly regarded for her many sterling qualities.
Rev W.J. Scott, minister of Bethany United Church officiated. The pallbearers were Messrs P.A. Greig, R.A. Jamieson, D.M. Campbell, J.D. J.K. Kelly. Interment was in the Auld Kirk cemetery. A profusion of beautiful floral tributes further testified to the esteem in which deceased was held. (maiden name Bertha Cole)
