To the Editor of the Rideau Record (Record News)
Sir – Will you kindly allow me space in your paper to correct an error which appeared in your last issue respecting the funeral of the late Samuel Begley at Easton’s Corners, on Sunday, November 25th. Your correspondent there states that the Methodist meeting house was placed at my disposal for the occasion, and also leads your readers to infer that the service was conducted in it. I therefore wish to correct the error, as no such unseemly offer was made, and the service took place in St. Anne’s church of which the deceased was a member.
Yours Truly,
T. J. Stiles, Incumbent

Whatever may be the opinion of various people as to the origin, or cause of this seemingly mysterious light, we have indisputable evidence that the light was there and seen by several a short time before the final dissolution.

-A most melancholy affair took place here on the 11th
inst. by the death of Mrs. Orsa Bissell, who died from the effects of a dose of
strychnine taken with the view of committing suicide. Mr. Bissell had buried his mother only two days before this
most melancholy affair took place, and the relatives from a distance had little
more than got home before a telegram of the above nature was to hand acquainting
them with the above facts. The
facts received by your correspondent are these: Mr. Bissell and his wife had
retired to rest on the night of the 11th inst. at about half-past
ten, she retiring with two small children to her room, while Mr. Bissell took an
adjoining room. At about 2
o’clock in the morning Mr. Bissell was awakened by his wife calling him to her
room, and there acquainting him with the fact that she had taken poison, which
at first he could not believe, but while he was talking to her she began to show

as soon as they could returned to the house.

mile distant, but before the doctor could get there she was dead.
