The late Mrs Bryson, whose maiden name was Janet Carswell, was born in Paisley, Scotland, and came to Canada when she was fifteen years of age. Her father settled in the township of Huntley, and here she had her home until she was married to Mr Robt Bryson about sixty-six years ago, when she came with him to Ramsay and lived for many years on the farm on the eleventh line now owned by Mr John Neilson. Mr and Mrs Bryson had no family, but an adopted daughter lived with them until she was married to Mr Thos Bamford, then a resident of Almonte. As the years passed, Mr and Mrs Bryson prospered, and a number of years ago they moved to Almonte, where they enjoyed respite from their labours. Mr Bryson died fourteen years ago, Mrs Bryson continued a resident of Almonte until about four years ago, when she went to the Rosamond Memorial Hospital, but afterwards moved to the Perley Home at Ottawa, but for the past two years she was with her nephew, Mr Allan Carswell, at Campbell's Bay. Here she enjoyed good health, notwithstanding that she was in her 89th year, until six weeks ago she was stricken with paralysis, but was recovering when there was a recurrence of the trouble and she passed away on Saturday morning. The late Mrs Bryson was a bright woman and was possessed of a memory that was almost encyclopaedic in its ability to retain an accurate record of passing events, more especially insofar as dates were concerned. As a consequence, she was a most interesting conversationalist and time spent in her company was both interesting and educative. On more than one occasion the Gazette was indebted to her for the verification of dates and facts not otherwise attainable. She saw many changes take place in her 74 years in Canada, and in the early days had her share in the transforming of the almost unbroken forest into fields of varied products. Deceased leaves one brother, Mr George Carswell of Calumet Island. The late Mrs Bryson was a sister-in-law of the late Hon George Bryson of Fort Coulonge.
