- REUBEN GILES
Reuben Giles, a retired railroader, died on Thursday, October 22. He was in his 86th year and was born at Union Hall and resided there for some twenty-five years. He then moved to Blakeney where he lived until his wife; the former Bertha McArthur died some twenty-two months ago. He then moved to Almonte to live with his daughter and son-in-law. While in Blakeney he made many friends where he was known as a good neighbour. He suffered failing eyesight for some twenty years, which became an increasing handicap. Mr. Giles was one of a family of four, one of whom survives, namely Robert Giles of Almonte. There are also four half-sisters, Mrs. Eva Rankin, Ottawa; Mrs. Ada Traill, Smiths Falls; Mrs. Margaret Corrigan, Spruce Lake, Sask., and Mrs. Minnie Elliott, Sonningdale, Sask. Two half-brothers are deceased. Though Mr. Giles had been in failing health for some time the end came suddenly, and unexpectedly. The funeral was held from the Comba Funeral Home, Almonte, on Saturday afternoon at 2 p.m. to the Auld Kirk. Cemetery. The pallbearers were Messrs. George Arthur, James Bingham, George Robertson, Stewart Paterson, Lloyd Giles and Orville Giles.
