Great sympathy is'felt with Mr H. Burnand in the loss of his venerable mother. The deceased was 82 years of age, and until the last few weeks was most regular in her attendance at church, and was often to be seen walking 'down from her son’s residence to the township. A couple of weeks back, the old contracted a severe cold, and had to have medical advice. Dr Reekie was called in and did all in his power to alleviate her sufferings, but Mrs Handyside slowly sank and passed away on Tuesday morning about 4 o’clock. The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon, Rev. E. S. Wayne performing the last rites. The many friends of deceased followed the sad procession and the mill employees also turned out to show their respect. Mr H. Burnand, Miss Handyside, and Miss Burnand were the chief mourners.
