Obituary

Rathwell, Man.- Mrs. Catherine Scarrow, 81, widow of Irvine Scarrow, died March 17 and was buried March 20 from St. Paul's Anglican church to Woodlawn cemetery. Rev. W. McKinney officiated. Born in the Carp, Carleton County, Ont., Mrs. Scarrow came west with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Denis Cavanagh, in 1874, settling at Poplar Point. She married Mr. Scarrow in 1878 and they settled in the Treherne district, moving to Rathwell later. Mr. Scarrow died four years ago. Mrs. Scarrow was one of the first members of the W.A. of St. Paul's church. Her most noted journey was taken a few years ago when she returned to her native place to visit her sister, Mrs. Brown, whom she had not seen for over 50 years. Surviving are five of her eight children: Mrs. A Duncan, Mrs. L.G. Johnson and W.I. Scarrow, Rathwell; G.H. Scarrow, Henville, Man.; Mrs. M. Watson, Bindloss, Alta.; fifteen grandchildren; two brothers, J. and T. Cavanagh, Edgerton, Alta and two sisters, Mrs. Brown, in the Carp, and Mrs. Dier, Winnipeg.
