Her father was the late W.H. Troop of Nictaux, N.S. For twenty-nine years she has been the widow of the late Avard Longley who for several years represented Annapolis County in the Local and Dominion Parliaments both before and after Confederation. Mrs. Longley was a strong character. Her intellectual qualities were rare for her day; her mind was well stored with knowledge culled from the choicest fields. This well cultivated mind never ceased to assimilate the best in literature even to the last. Having been shut in for years we began to think of her as belonging mostly to the past, but only a few weeks before her death, she surprised the Literary Society by sending a paper on “Lessons from nature, or Outdoor Religion.” This paper would have reflected credit on any of our younger and more highly favored generation had they written it. In her younger life she attained marked proficiency in music. To these qualifications were added an activity and resourcefulness that made her a leader of both old and young in her church and the community. Her personality was of such a dignified and yet modest character that, when in her society you instinctively felt yourself in the presence of royalty. Such exalted conceptions, such noble ideals, such purity of thought, aim and motive, made her a force in formulating the morals of the community. Of a family of six, four survive to mourn their loss, namely: Harry and Howard of Paradise, and Annie S. And Mrs. T.R. Wallace of Wolfville. Her funeral took place at the home of her son on March 1st. The services were conducted by Rev. S.D. MacLeod who took for his text Phil. IV, 3: Whose names are written in the book of life. He was assisted by Rev. A.M. McNintch and J.H. Balcom. The last respects were paid to the departed by a large gathering of sympathizing friends.”
