Miss Maggie Paul
After suffering for several months from a lung trouble, Miss Maggie J. Paul, daughter of Mr Wm Paul, of Ramsay, was called upon on Friday of last week to test the realities of the life beyond the grave. The deceased was of a very quiet and retiring disposition, unostentatious in all that she did, but ever faithful in the discharge of her duties. She was an earnest and consistent follower of the Savoir, whom she loved, and died as she lived -- in the full hope of a blessed resurrection. The funeral on Monday was an unusually large one, many friends following the remains to the place of interment in the eighth line cemetery. The funeral services were conducted by Rev A.M. Currie, assisted by Rev A.E. Mitchell of Ottawa, who came up to attend the funeral. The sympathy of the community goes out to the father and other members of the family in their bereavement, and is increased because of the illness of the aged parent who was unable to leave his room on the day of the funeral.
