Mr. Rainey Armstrong passed peacefully away on February 13th, having reached the good old age of 81 years. He was a native of County, Antrim, Ireland. He and his wife emigrated to this country and 1852. She predeceased him about eleven years ago. They settled on a farm on the Goshen line, Stanley, 47 years ago, and where he continued to reside until his death. It was then all woods, but by perseverance and industry, he soon converted it into a comfortable home. He was a remarkable robust man, and few could stand so well the hardship and privations of pioneer life. He was a sociable, genial man and a good neighbor. He was a constant member of the Presbyterian Church, and a lifelong and active Conservative in politics, and a worthy Orangemen. He was reputed to be one of the best fifers in Ontario, and was very proud of his accomplishment. A family of six sons are left to mourn the loss of a kind and affectionate father. Mr. Armstrong was in every respect a good and worthy man, and was of a kind and friendly disposition. He had borne the burden and heat of the day a long time. We have reason to believe that he is gone to the home of the blessed, there to sit down with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; full of years and beloved by all who knew him.
