Died at Eventide.

Mrs. William Gedye died at her
home in the Barreltown community
on Wednesday, August 23d, 1899, at
6:30 p. M, of pneumonia, aged 76
years.
Deceased had recently returned
from Chicago, where she had spent
some time visiting and enjoying the
company of her daughters who re-
side there. Her death was as peace
ful as her life, and when she bid her
sorrowing children goodbye, it was
with a smile upon her lips, giving
assurance that all was well with her
and her God. Her last illness was
softened by all that loving and tend
er hands could do. Surviving are
two sons and four daughters to mourn
the loss of IA beloved mother, and in
the home where she has presided
for forty years her place cannot be
filed. Mr.. Gedye preceded his wife
in that last long sleep by just 26 yrs.
on the 9TH of September next.
The funeral took place on Satur-
day morning, August 26th, and was
solemnized by high mass at St.
Paul's Catholic church. Relatives
in attendance from out of town were
Mrs. r. II. Wilkinson with little son,
Mrs. Freligh and son, Miss Margaret
Gedye, the ladies being daugters Of
the deceased, and Miss Bessie Gedye,
a grand-d daughter, all of Chicago.

Monday afternoon, the team Owned
by Ed. Engels) broke into mad run
without any cause or warning. In
spite Of the efforts of these two strong
men the horses could not be con-
trolled and had not gone far before
the buggy was upset and its occu-
pants dumped out. Mr.. Brandt held
onto the lines for a brief time after
being thrown to the ground and in
consequence had his clothes torn
and received some scratches. The
team then turned to the left and
plunged through a wire fence, where
it became detached from the buggy.
Inside the enclosure the horses
scampered wildly about until they
ran into "suekerholeh about ten
feet deep. They We're taken out as
quickly as possible, but not before
the under horse was dead from suf-
focation. The buggy Is much the
worse for the run, and considering
the grade and side slope where the
horses started the men in the buggy
are indeed lucky not to have met
with serious results to themselves.
