Former Almonte Resident Passes
Andrew Dunlop Dies At Home Of Daughter In Carleton Place
(Carleton Place Canadian)
Mr Andrew Dunlop, an esteemed and well known resident of Carleton Place and Almonte, died at the home of his daughter, Mrs Wilbert J. Porterfield, Lake Avenue West on Wednesday of last week. Mr Dunlop was in his 90th year. The late Mr Dunlop was a man younger looking than his years and enjoyed good health until his illness which occurred on Saturday, October 28th. Up until that tie he was able to take his walks to the barber shop and enjoyed meeting and conversing with old and new friends whom he met from time to time. Mr Dunlop's passing is widely mourned by his friends throughout the whole district.
Born In Scotland
Born in Paisley Scotland, in 1855, a son of the late Mr and Mrs Andrew Dunlop, he came to Canada with his parents in 1870, and settled in Guelph, and later at Fergus, Ont. In 1872, the family moved to Almonte where Mr Dunlop entered the employ of the Rosamond Woolen Company. He remained there 49 years, 40 of them as overseer. In 1922 Mr Dunlop was forced to retire due to ill health. On September 4th 1878, Mr Dunlop was married to the former Miss Agnes Lindsay Gilmour, daughter of the late Mr and Mrs James Gilmour at the home of her parents on the 8th line of Ramsay, by the late Rev Mr. Lougheed In 1936 Mr and Mrs Dunlop came to visit with their sonin- law and daughter, Mr and Mrs W.J. Porterfield, and were only here a short time when Mrs Dunlop passed away, since which time Mr Dunlop has made his home in Carleton Place.
An Old Citizen
The late Mr Dunlop was one of Almonte's oldest and best known citizens and since coming to reside in this town had made a host of friends. He was well read and kept close contact with current events through his daily newspaper. The death of his young grandson, Flying Officer Andrew Porterfield, overseas, was an almost overwhelming blow from which Mr Dunlop never seemed to recover. As husband and father he had all the vicissitudes of the years with a brave heart and cheerful courage and it was always more natural of him to think of others than of himself. Mr Dunlop lived a full and well rounded life wit an abundance of philosophy and good humour that enabled him to endure a great deal and he leaves behind him a good name and the inspiration of a friendship that will be cherished by those who knew it.
Prominent Mason
During his long years of residence in Almonte, Mr. 'Dunlop was active in many of the town's affairs. He was a member of Bethany United Church and was deeply interested in its welfare. He was a member of Mississippi Lodge, A.F. & A.M. No. 147, Almonte, for 67 years and some time ago was given the 50-year veteran jewel and the Past Master's 50-year medal and was the oldest living member at the time of his death. Left to mourn are five daughters (Ethel) Mrs W.J. Porterfield, Carleton Place, (Gertrude) Mrs Harry Reynolds, Calgary, (Inez) Mrs Charles Lay, Toronto, (Olga) Mrs Arthur T. Roberts, Desplain, Ill., U.S.A., (Roberta) Mrs Gordon Brown, Toronto, also two sons Mr Frank Dunlop, Ottawa and Mr. Russell Dunlop, of Calgary, and one brother, Mr David Dunlop, North Adams, Mass., and one sister, Miss Tena Dunlop of Almonte.

Obit. ? Delcie Dunlop
The sympathy for Mr and Mrs Andrew Dunlop aroused by the serious illness of their daughter, Delice Bennett, was deepened when she succumbed to the disease and passed away on Friday of last week. She had been taken ill but two weeks before with a malignant brain trouble, and though everything possible was done for her the progress of the disease could not be stayed, and the end came. The deceased was the sixth daughter of Mr and Mrs Dunlop, and was almost seventeen years of age. She was of a bright and happy disposition and was a favourite with a very many, all of whom sincerely regret such a sudden termination of so promising a young life. The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon, and was one of the largest seen in Almonte for some time. Besides her father and mother there are six sisters and two brothers left to mourn her demise. These are Mrs L. Thompson of Fort William; Mrs H. Reynolds and Mrs Hobbs Ley of Calgary; Mrs W. Porterfield of Carleton Place; Misses Olga and Roberta at home, and Messrs Frank at Hartford, Conn., and Russell at Edmonton,
