WINDHAM CENTRE

It is with regret that we record the death of one of our oldest citizens in the person of Mr. A. Mercel Sr. on Saturday night last. Mr. Mercel has lived in this vicinity many years and was one of the most highly respected men in the place. The funeral took place on Tuesday to Vanessa.

This is the second of our oldest residents to pass away within the last week. Only one week ago last Tuesday, James McKnight was buried, and in the the death of these two the Presbyterian church in this place loses two of its most devoted members.
