Donald Thomson.

Donald Thomson was born in Mark
ham, Ont. Jan 18th. 1886, and died at
Harlowtown, Mont, Feb. 18th. 1912 He
first moved from Canada to New York
in 1861 and went back to Canada in 1885;
them from there he moved to Hensel in
this county where he farmed for num-
Der of years. He was later elected audi
tor of Penn blna county and lived in Penn
bina during his term of Office He then
moved to Westhope, Bottineau county,
and later to Harlowtown, Mont, where
he died. His body was brought to Cry
stall for burial and was accompanied by
the bereaved wife, bis daughter Mrs.
Boifeullet, and his son DR.. Percy Thorn
son. A memorial service was conducted
by Rev. Dr.. Moore, district superintend-
ent and former pastor. when living in
this city.
THESE few lines indicate some of the
events of the life of a man whose deeds
were not those which are preserved in
history. He was one of the many rather
than one of the few. And yet among
those who knew him best, among his
own neighbors and friends, he held an
exalted place for he was a man whose
heart was without guile. Kindly, SYM
pathetic, friendly, genial. unselfish, were
his most pro ninent characteristics.
Friendly to all he had therefore many
friends
Being we'll read and with good edu-
cation, he was often selected by his
friends to positions of honor and trust
and was faithful servant to the people
when thus given public Office.
He has Joined that increasing number
of Pembina county pioneers who have
passed or are passing SO rapidly to that
other country which is the last to which
they shall emigrate. While his name
may not be inscribed on the rolls of
fame, yet his influence for good among
his neighbors, in his home locality and
in this county will last forever. He had
been faithful member Of the Method
list church for more than forty years.
The immediate members Of the family
returned to Harlowtown on Monday.
Many Of the old Pembina friends learn
ed Of the death of their former friend
and neighbor with genuine lsorrow and
express the most profoundi sympathy
with the bereaved widow and children.
