He complained on arriving of not feeling well, and Mr McLean, seeing that he was in pain, got him to lie down, and fetched a doctor, but by the time the latter arrived Mr Neilson was feeling better. The Dr., however, advised him to keep himself quiet, and he would write out a prescription, and the deceased asked him, to add the instructions for taking it also, as his memory was getting bad. The Dr. seated himself at the table and commenced writing, but shortly after turned round to speak to his patient, when he found that he had ceased to breathe. The deceased was the brother of Messrs Matthew and James Neilson, of the 11th line of Ramsay, and was related by marriage to many of the residents of that neighbourhood, who heard of his sudden end with deep regret. Mr Neilson up to about two or three years ago lived on the town line between Ramsay and Huntley, and then he sold his place and went to live in Pakenham to be near his daughter. The deceased was well known as a great reader and a man of more than ordinary intelligence, profiting by what he read. To a very large number of friends who high respected him the intelligence of his death was a source of great grief, and all bear testimony to the virtues of the deceased.
