Mr. James Coulter, Sr., one of the oldest residents of Lanark County, passed away at the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. John Gemmell, Almonte, on Tuesday morning at the advanced age of 85 years. Mr. Coulter was a native of County Sligo, Ireland and emigrated to this country in 1821 and settled in Clayton or Bellamy’s Mills as the place was then called in those days. He traded with the Indians in the vicinity for a number of years buying furs and later started a hotel in the village which he conducted for a long period. He also kept a store in the same village as well as a branch of the same business in Douglas, the late Thomas Coulter being a partner in the enterprise. About 14 years ago he had a paralytic stroke, from the effects of which he remained almost a helpless invalid to the time of his death. He leaves a large number of descendants among them being Mrs. John Gemmell and James Coulter of Almonte and Mrs. J. Banning and Mr. Young Coulter of Clayton besides a host of relatives of later generations. Mr. Coulter was a staunch Conservative in politics and when opportunity offered itself he always sought to advance by all honorable means the interests of Conservatism. His funeral will take place today (Thursday) at 11:00 am to St. George’s Church Cemetery (Boland’s) by way of Union Hall. Almonte Times | Coulter, James Price (I04454)

Ritchie-Drowned, in the Bonnechere River at Douglas on the 24th Dec., Robert (Ritchie), son of Mr. James Ritchie, aged 9.
A sad accident occurred at Douglas, Co. Renfrew, on the 24th Dec., when Robert Ritchie, son of Mr. James Ritchie, blacksmith, was drowned in the Bonnechere River. He was with two other boys who had come to the river to skate. The ice was bad and he broke through. One of his companions got in and was trying to assist him but got out again at once. The other boy ran home and gave the alarm. The boy was still clinging to the ice when they returned and though every exertion was made by the few who were on time, the ice broke up and the little fellow sank and was drowned. Great sympathy is felt for the family. | Ritchie, Robert Henry (I01009)

Phyl's family includes her three daughters: Jan Cadman, Lee (Bill) Wertzler and Lorrie (Rick) Bauer and her two sons: Kent (Janice) Cadman and Patrick (Chris) Cadman. Phyl has been blessed with 11 grandchildren and a great grandson. Phyl lived a very long and fulfilling life. She saw many changes from her first job as a telephone switchboard operator, to the box office manager at what was then called the Centennial Auditorium to her last position before retirement as accountant with Miller's Flowers in Saskatoon. Through it all Phyl remained very positive and full of questions and you could often find her listening attentively to CBC radio talk shows. One of her regrets was that she had become blind just when the internet was being popularized she would have loved to be online. Phyl was also very creative and busy with her gardens and with her hands. She continued to knit throughout the years even in blindness and her rows seldom strayed. This is an inscription from a plaque that was written for Phyl's 75th birthday by her son Kent; we include this to give you a sense of how we feel about our Phrivolous Phyl. What's in a name? P is for your positive attitude h and y stand for young at heart The double ls represent love and laughter i means incredible patience and last but not least, sis for silly The immediate family will hold a private celebration of Phyl's life. Phyl's family and friends will miss her dearly.

The death of James D. McClelland was a shock not only to his relatives, but to his friends, and all who knew him were his friends. He was so strong, so full of life and health, none could think of his dying as he did, after five days of illness. Accustomed to exposure to all weathers, he did not think it necessary to change his wet clothing before he went to bed on the Friday night before his death; yet this was apparently the cause of his fatal illness. The next day he was attacked with cholera morbus. He was work for his brother William at Racquette Falls, and far from medical aid. They did all they could for him, but neither he nor they knew how terrible was the disease that fastened upon him. On Wednesday, as he got no better, he decided to go to his father's at Saranac Lake. They made a bed in the boat and carried him to it. He would not allow his brother to go with him, as he knew he could be ill spared from home just then; and insisted that young Farmer would do just as well, and started for home. When they got Wardner's, at Stony Creek Pond, he could bear no more, and two men assisted him to the house. There everything possible was done for him and a physician from Wawbeek Lodge attended him, but too late; even then his case was hopeless. Late that night word reached his father that his son was very ill at Wardner's and a dispatch soon after told the same thing. But no thought of the desperate nature of his illness was entertained, and the night was suffered to pass without action. James had heard that his sister from New York was at home, and he sent word for her to come and take care of him. The next morning, getting what things seemed needful, the father and sister started for their dear sufferer, and reached him three hours before he died. He was so glad and grateful to see them and seemed to be content, though he had called for his mother through the night. His sister gave him medicine to relieve the dreadful pain, which had for many hours been all in his heart, and he thanked her with a smile, saying he knew she could do him some good, and he conversed clearly and lovingly with father and sister until the end came. Once he seemed to wander a little, and begged his father to set him back, he did not want to cross the river, he wanted to go up stream. The father replied brokenly that he was afraid his dear boy must cross the river that time, and he seemed to understand, and smiled. His last words were, kiss me father, and he returned the kiss so sweetly and fell asleep. Meantime dispatches had been sent the mother who had hastened to him, but met them returning just before she reached McCoy's. From the Bartlett place a dispatch was sent to the family to be ready, and the sad procession started down the lake. Two men kindly volunteered to come with them, and at ten o'clock PM they reached the landing, where were men with teams and lanterns to meet them. Arriving at home they were met by many of their neighbors, who had heard of their loss, and had made all needful preparations. Until the last sad rites were over the kindness and thoughtfulness of the neighbors could not be expressed. Each one seemed anxious to do all in their power to show their respect for the dead, and sympathy for the living. How grateful the parents and family are, words cannot express. May the dear Lord reward them, for we cannot. But whenever the thought of our bitter trial arises, the thought of their loving kindness will also arise. Distant friends were telegraphed for and Thos. Johnson and wife, of Ellenburgh Depot, and G.W. Walton and daughter from Keene, came in time for the funeral. The parents have only pleasant memories of him who has gone. He was a good and loving son, but we can only say, "God's will be done." -- M.E. | McClelland, James D. (I00694)
