Mrs. W.B. McLELLAN, Tatamagouche received a telegram telling of the sudden death of her cousin, Mrs. ISABELL SUTHERLAND at her home in Oakland, Calif., on April 24th after an illness of one hour of neuralgia of the heart.

It being her wish that she should be buried in her Canadian home, beside her husband, the late KENNETH SUTHERLAND, her son KENNETH started on his sad journey on April 26th and arrived at Tatamagouche, May 2nd. The funeral service was held in the Presbyterian Church by the Rev. R.L.
