She had apparently been in her accustomed good health up to the time of the unexpected illness with which she was stricken. Born and brought up near Almonte, the daughter of the late Mr and Mrs James McCann of Ramsay Township, she was married to Mr Lawrie in 1899. They lived for some time in Ramsay Township and on Mr Lawrie's retiring from active work he purchased the fine residence on Mitcheson street, Almonte, where the family have since resided. In her own home she was a devoted wife and mother and always an inspiration for good and her kindly presence will be missed by a large circle of friends. The surviving relatives to mourn her loss besides her husband are two daughters, Mary V. (Mrs Roy Gibbons of Ottawa), and Anne at home, Three sisters, Mrs Wm Armstrong, Ramsay; Mrs Robert McIntosh, Toronto, and Mrs Wm Allison, Winnipeg. The funeral, at which sincere tribute was paid in a very large attendance, took place on Thursday afternoon at 2.30, from the family residence, Mitcheson street, to the Auld Kirk cemetery.

McIntosh, Toronto; Jos Crawford, Carleton Place; Roy Gibbons, Ottawa; R. Burnside and W.C. Pollock. The many beautiful floral tributes and the many letters and messages of sympathy testified to the high esteem in which Mrs Lawrie was held by her many friends and acquaintances, and the deepest sympathy of the entire community goes out to the bereaved husband and family.
