On Tuesday, 28th Nov., one of Pakenham's oldest and best known residents passed to his eternal rest, in the person of James Waddell, sen., at the good old age of 98. He saw one century come in and another almost go out. Without moan, or struggle, or sickness, calmly as a sleeping child he passed from earth to heaven, mourned by many children, grandchildren and great grandchildren, who yet are comforted by the thought of the promise fulfilled, "Mark thou the perfect and behold the man uprightness, because that surely of this man the latter end is peace." The late Mr Waddell was born ten miles from Glasgow (near Airdie), Scotland, in the year 1796. He came to Canada with his wife and four small children in 1831, and hewed room for a cabin in the forest on the farm on which he since lived, and on which he died. Before leaving the old land he provided himself with many little things he thought he would need in the new, among them being a large grindstone, quarried and dressed by his own hand, and still in use. In religion deceased was a Covenanter (now better known as Reformed Presbyterians). In politics he had no part, refusing to take part in the government of a nation he considered had dethroned his Lord and King. The funeral took place last Thursday, and was largely attended.
