Noble, Detroit, another dearly beloved pioneeer of this city was called to her Eternal reward. The late Mrs. Merritt was the daughter of Robert and Barbara McCubbin, early settlers of Chatham Township. She was 86 years of age and until the death of her husband her entire life had been spent in the county of Kent. For many years the family resided on Queen Street and by the older residents in particular she will be remembered for the many womanly qualities which she possessed. She was a member of Victoria Avenue United Church and in her younger days was an active worker in the various church societies. Some years after the death of her husband Mrs. Merritt went to Detroit where she has been making her home with her daughter Mrs. Noble of 44 Callifornia Avenue. It was there she passed away early Friday morning, following a severe stroke which she suffered about four weeks ago. Surviving besides Mrs. Noble is another daughter Miss Ida of Detroit and one son George Merritt of Mitchell's Bay. The remains, upon their arrival in the city at noon today, were conveyed to Campbell's Funeral Home from where the funeral services will be held at two o'clock on Sunday afternon with Rev. G.W. Henderson D.D. officiating. Burial will be made in the Maple Leaf Cemetery, Chatham
