Josephine Alberta Dundas

Mrs. Arthur DUNDAS. After a long and painful illness Mrs. Arthur DUNDAS was

deceased at her residence, Dufferin street, at an early hour last Tuesday

morning. Coming to Alliston some eighteen years ago from Essa Mrs. DUNDAS

was not altogether unknown here but her most amiable nature and her facility

for rendering assistance when help was needed in the home of a friend soon

endeared her to a host of friends who in turn rendered her many kindnesses

during her long and fatal illness. Mrs. DUNDAS was formerly Josephine

Alberta SELBY, third daughter of the late Britton SELBY and Eliza BELL SELBY

his wife. She was born on the second concession of the township of Essa

nearly sixty years ago and continued to live on the farm on which she was

born till she moved to Alliston [with] her husband, Mr. Arthur DUNDAS,

taking the place on the demise of her father. Twenty five years were spent

on this place by Mr. and Mrs. DUNDAS before they retired. To mourn her loss

are her husband whose health is precarious at the present time, one son,

Benson, four sisters and one brother -- Mrs. James AGAR of Lucknow, Mrs.

Jake REED of Dungannon, Mrs. John McMANN of Alliston, Mrs. Alexander AGAR of

Toronto and Mr. W. B. SELBY of Sharon. The funeral was held Thursday

afternoon when many friends gathered and many tributes were paid to the

kindly demeanor of Mrs. DUNDAS who was always solicitous of the happiness

and comfort of others and ever ready to shed the sunny rays of inspiration

where doubt had taken hold. As a consoler where trouble had brought the

dark clouds Mrs. DUNDAS was truly a remarkable woman. A private service was

held at the home followed by a service in the Anglican church of which Mrs.

DUNDAS was a faithful and consistent member. Rev. P. N. KNIGHT who

conducted the service paid tribute to the remarkable characteristics of this

woman. Interment was made in the Union cemetery the pall bearers being

Robert ADDIS, John CUNNINGHAM, James McMANN, Daniel JOHNSTON, Edgar TUER

and James A. KERR.
