About a week prior to his death he was stricken with apoplexy but to all appearances recovered. On Friday night after attending to his duties about the barn her retired to his room at the usual time apparently in good health. About 3 a.m. Mrs. Sexsmith was awakened by his heavy breathing and called the other members of the family and at 5 o'clock he passed away without speaking a word. Deceased, who was in his seventy-fifth year, leaves a sorrowing widow and a large family of grown up children to mourn his sad death. His funeral, hwich was held on Tuesday afternoon, was one of the largest seen in the township for a long time. The funeral service was conducted in St. James church, Tweed, by Rev. C. T. Lewis, after which his remains were placed in the vault."
