Read More	Entered into Rest: There passed peacefully away to his eternal rest on Sunday evening, Oct. 2nd. one of the township of Fitzroy's oldest and most highly respected citizens in the person of Mr. William Greene. Deceased who was in his 75th year, was born and spent his life on the third line of Fitzroy where he passed away. He was in religion a staunch Anglican and only a few days before his death the pastor of his church visited with him and administered his last Holy Communion. He was also a devout and energetic member and officer in L.O.L. No. 30, Antrim. Over 30 years ago he was married to Miss Mary Gourlay, daughter of the late Mr, and Mrs. William Gourlay, also of Fitzroy. Besides his sorrowing widow he is survived by three sons and one daughter, namely, Garnet and Clifford of Fitzroy, Merville and Miss Ruby at home; also one aged sister, Mrs. John Switzer of Pakenham, who is the only surviving member of the family of the deceased. The funeral on Monday was very largely attended by relatives, acquaintances and neighbors, as he was well and favorably known by a host of people. Service was held in St. John's Anglican Church, Antrim, where deceased formerly attended. Rev. Grant Jones, rector of the church, preached a very comforting sermon, during which he emphasized the uncertainty of the earthly life and the blessedness and peace of the future life. Hymns which were sung were "Forever with the Land," "A few more years shall roll" and "God he with you till we meet again," the latter being an especial favorite of deceased. A very lengthy cortege followed the remains to their last resting place in St. Mark's Anglican cemetery, Pakenham, where Rev. Burnet of Pakenham conducted the solemn burial service, after which the members of the L.O.L. Association conducted their service and gave the last farewell to one beloved by them all. The nephew members of the Association who acted as pallbearers were Messrs S. E. Baird, W. J. Greene, W. E. Baird, E Ross, J. G. Ledgerwood and J. Green. Very numerous and beautiful were the floral tributes as follows: Wreaths: Family, Greene Nephews of Eaganville, Mr. and Mrs. Fred A. Ross and family, Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Ledgerwood, Dist. L.O.L. No. 5, L.O.L. No 30 Antrim; Spray: Wilber Ritchie. The floral tributes were carried at the church and grave by members of the Orange Association, namely Messrs Samuel Owens, W. A. Bradley, Ivan Story, Thomas Halpenny and Lloyd Acres. Deep sympathy is extended from the surrounding community to the widow and family who mourn the loss of a kind and loving husband and father.
