Read More	Mrs. O.T. Pruyn. Elizabeth R. Dorland, relict of the late Sherriff Oliver Thatford Pruyn, died on Sunday morning at the residence of her son, Thomas Dorland Pruyn, ex-Mayor of Napanee, at the advanced age of 82 years. She was a native of Adolphustown, and she lived in this county all her life and was well known to many of the old readers of the Beaver. Her grandfather, John Dorland, was one of the pioneer settlers of Adolphustown. He was a prominent Quaker and it was on his farm in the third concession of Adolphustown, on the shores of Hay Bay, that the first Quaker meeting house in Upper Canada was built and the first burying ground of that society was established. Her father, Thos. I. Dorland, was also a well-known and prominent Quaker and inherited the family homestead, where he lived and died in 1869. He married Betsey Trumpour also an early native of the same township. They had six children of whom Deborah, the subject of these notes was the youngest child. She married Oliver Thatford Pruyn, then a young farmer residing on the front of South Fredericksburgh, just west of the boundary line of Ernesttown, where all their married days were spent. Mr. Pruyn was a prominent and much-respected man and was appointed Sheriff of this county at the time of its separation, a position which he held until the time of his death, a little over six years ago. He was much attached to his farm, however, and never left it to take personal charge of the Sheriff's office, which was first filled by his brother, the late Matthew W. Pruyn, and later on by his only son, Thomas Dorland Pruyn. Sheriff Hawley succeeded to the office at the time of Mr. Pruyn's death. Since her husband's death, the deceased has lived with her son at Napanee. He is just now absent at Victoria British Columbia - too far away to reach home for her funeral, which took place on Tuesday forenoon. Like her husband, she was a member of the Church of England, and they now have their last resting place, side by side, in St. Paul's churchyard at Sandhurst - a church of which they were regular attendants for many years. She enjoyed fairly good health until a few months ago, when she slipped and fell on the icy ground near her own door and fractured the bone of her thigh. She so far recovered from that accident as to be able to walk about some again. As the result of that accident, and of her last sickness, she suffered a good deal of pain, and no doubt, it was a relief to be at last at rest - a happy change to enjoy that rest which remaineth to the people of God. ******************** Died at Napanee - Mrs. Pruyn Passes Away Napanee, June 25 - Mrs. O.T. Pruyn, mother of T.D. Pruyn, passed away on Saturday night at the advanced age of eighty-two years. She was the youngest daughter of the late Thomas D. Dorland, one of the oldest settlers in the bay district, and was one of a large family, all of whom have now passed away. The funeral will take place today, the interment in the family plot at Sandhurst.
