Mr James Wilson Killed
Not only Appleton district but the surrounding community in a wide circle was appalled on Wednesday when the intelligence passed from one person to another, that James Wilson had been killed. How the accident happened is not known for certain, but it is supposed he was unhitching his team in the barn about noon and that one of the horses had kicked him, and when found one side of his head was crushed in. Mrs Wilson heard an unusual noise in the barn, and upon going out to ascertain the cause she found her husband unconscious, and in a short time he passed away. The late Mr Wilson was a son of the late Andrew Wilson, sr., and was about 56 years of age. He was married about 22 years ago to Miss Mary Snedden, daughter of the late James Snedden, and to them five children were born. Of these Christina is teaching at Rosetta, Maggie is bookkeeper in Mr J.A. McGregor's store at Appleton, Bryson and Janet are attending the high school at Carleton Place, and John, the youngest, is at home. Mrs Wilson is still living, as is also a sister of the deceased, Miss Mary Wilson, at Appleton. The late Mr Wilson was a man of a quiet and retiring disposition, but was highly respected by all who knew him ? those knowing him best holding him in highest esteem. He was a good neighbour, a staunch friend and a man of sterling probity and uprightness in all his dealings. He was a member of the Presbyterian church, and was a staunch Liberal in politics. The funeral will take place on Friday afternoon at 1:30 o'clock from his late home to the Presbyterian cemetery on the eighth line of Ramsay. The sad occurrence has called forth sincere and heartfelt sympathy for the family and friends so sorely bereaved.
James married Mary Whyte Snedden in 1892. Mary (daughter of James Snedden and Christena Snedden) was born on 1 Apr 1861 in Ramsay Twp, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada; died on 14 Dec 1930 in Ottawa, Carleton County, Ontario, Canada; was buried in Auld Kirk Cemetery, Mississippi Mills, Lanark County, Ontario, Canada.
