The funeral mass was celebrated in St. John’s church, Perth, Rev. Dean Hogan, officiating.

CONSITT BURIAL OF FRANK CONSITT – Funeral ? Last
Friday Attended by Large Number – The funeral of the late Mr. Francis (Frank)
Hugh Consitt, who met a sudden and untimely death in the Montreal Herald office
catastrophe on Monday, June 13th, was held from his father’s
residence, Scotch Line, on Friday morning, to St. John’s Roman Catholic church,
thence to this parish cemetery. The
remains were brought here on Wednesday evening last. Speaking of the removal of the remains from the morgue in
Montreal to the Windsor station of the C.P.R., the Montreal Herald says: With
feelings of the deepest sorrow the colleagues of the late Frank Consitt, whose
body was recovered from the debris of the fire on Tuesday, accompanied the
remains from the Morgue to the Windsor Street Railway Station for interment in
the burial ground of the family at Perth, Ont.
“Mr. Consitt, who was only 30 years of age and married, was the only
newsroom victim of the disaster. He was
employed as make-up man. The suddenness
of his death deeply affected his fellow-workers in that department, many of
whom had themselves narrow escapes from a fiery sepulchre, and were
consequently the more profound in their sympathy. In Mr. Consitt’s case, the victim had realized too late that the
floor on which he was at work was collapsing and he was hurled into the abyss
which opened up below. “Amongst those
who accompanied the remains to the station were the young widow and infant
child of the deceased, a little boy a year and a half old; the father, mother,
brother and sister of Mr. Consitt, who had come from Perth; Vice-President
Wilder, of the Typographical Union, and Recording Secretary Somerville, Messrs.
W.G. Taylor, foreman of the newsroom, W. Pearce, James Wilson, Charles Beattie,
Daniel Ryan, H. Friedlander, Henry Bateman, John Murphy, J.F. O’Callaghan,
W.Bowes, Percy Fynan?, J.C.E. Tardif, John Bradley, and some forty others. “The coffin was covered by floral tributes,
as it was borne to the funeral car, amongst them being a large wreath from his
fellow-workers in the Herald office.
Mr. William Pearce went to attend the funeral as a representative of the
Herald and Mr. Consitt’s fellow workers.”
The funeral on Friday morning was the largest ever held in this section
for one of deceased’s years. The
funeral procession was headed by three vanloads of Catholic Order of Foresters,
St. Edward’s Court. Then came the
pallbearers, who were Dr. E.H. Wilson, J. Enright, C. Cavanagh, H. T. Noonan,
P.J. Kehoe and Wm. Pennett. The
mourners followed the hearse, and a hundred vehicles conveyed sympathetic
friends. The COURIER office and Wampole
printing department in which deceased worked in Perth were represented, while
Mr. W.D. Peares represented the Herald office and newsroom employees. The elements added to the sadness of the
occasion. The sun shone brightly on a
delightful day in June. Nature’s
bounteous hand was discerned in the growing fields, and the birds sang merrily
along the fences and hedges. All these
spoke of a promising year, and to him who was borne in the funeral car, they
always appealed and were ever a delight.
Frank loved the old line and all its surroundings, but now he would know
them no more. The flag on the district
school house was half-mast out of respect to the memory of the deceased and to
his family. Sorrowing friends mourned
with the family and filled St. John’s Church, where the impressive service for
the dead was celebrated by Rev. Father Hogan, a life-long friend of the family,
and who was born and raised on the farm adjoining the Consitt homestead. A full choir was present and solos were
beautifully sung by Miss O’Loughlin.
Afterwards the procession wooded? Its way to the parish cemetery, where
the remains were interred in the family burying plot. Friends and relatives present from a distance were: Mrs. W.W.
Howe, Worcester, Mass.; Dr. E.C. Consitt,
Fargo, N.D.; Mr. Harry Consitt, Ottawa; Mr. and Mrs. John Carroll, Miss
Maggie Carroll and Mr. John Carroll, of Montreal; Miss Kathleen Hart, of
Prescott; Dr. Hogan, Smiths Falls; Mr. Patrick Hogan, Merchants Bank, of
Eganville, and Mr. and Mrs. Peter Noonan, Pakenham. The floral tributes covered the casket and were as follows:
wreath, from Herald office; wreath from Typo Union, Montreal; wreath from
COURIER office and staff, with figures 30 on it, printer’s sign “it is ended”;
wreath from Mr. Thos. Consitt; wreath from Miss Nellie Cornell, Montreal, and
wreath from employees in Rough’s?, Montreal. (24 Jun 1910 pg 2)

DEWITT MRS. MARGARET DEWITT – Mrs. Margaret Dewitt, died at her home in Bathurst (illegible), day, August 22nd, after a lengthy illness. She was in her 73rd year. Born in Bathurst in 1877, she was the daugher of James Noonan and Margaret Hogan. In 1907 she married William Dewitt, and lived all her married life at Dewitt’s Corners in the home she came to as a bride. One of her daughters, Sophia, predeceased her in 1930.

DEWITT The community of the third line of Bathurst was shook to its very marrow last Friday evening when it became known that its idol of young womanhood had been laid low in death with a suddenness that was startling. Many in Perth and in other sections of Bathurst felt the shock and their sorrow was intense. Mrs. Willie Dewitt, a happy bride for less than a year, a mother of a few hour’s interval, could not stand the trial and slept away in death through weakness. Events of a lifetime were crowded into the narrow space of eleven months. Although she had never been strong Mrs. Dewitt had not known any real sickness heretofore, and recently had been nursing her husband who had been confined to his bed with rheumatism. Friday morning she was delivered of a baby, which however only lived a few moments, and while her husband and father were away to town in the evening to procure a coffin to bury her first-born, the poor soul of deceased, wore out, winged its flight away. The news of the sad death was broken gently to Mr. Dewitt and Mr. Hogan as they were returning from Perth. It was a sad message to give them and a sadder message for them to receive. Mrs. Dewitt’s maiden name was Mary Ann Hogan, only daughter of Mr. Richard Hogan of the third line of Bathurst, and was married to her husband on June 17th of last year. The wedding proved a felicitous one, and their wedded life commenced under good auspices, but, alas! A cloud has entered their home, once so bright and sunshiny, and the bride, wife and mother is taken. The broken-hearted husband and the grief-crazed father have the sincere sympathy and sorrow of their friends and relatives. Mrs. Dewitt was cheerful in manner, prepossessing and very lovable in character. She was the apple of her father’s eye. The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon from the family residence to St. John’s Church, Perth, and thence to the Catholic Cemetery. The day was very wet, yet many went out from Perth, and hundreds drove to the saddened home from many miles around, to show in silence their sympathy. The funeral cortege numbered 175 carriages and took fifteen minutes to pass one spot. The pallbearers were Messrs. Thomas Dewitt, John Dewitt, Dan Noonan, Thomas Hogan, George Noonan and John Brady, relatives of deceased. Those present at the funeral from a distance were Miss Ida Dewitt, of Ottawa; Mr. and Mrs. Peter Jackman, Cobourg; Mr. and Mrs. Michael McCabe, of Almonte; Mr. D. Mitchell, of Smith’s Falls; Messrs. Richard and Thomas Hogan, of Westport, and Samuel Crawford, of Montreal. (20 May 1904 pg 8)
DEWITT The death took place at the family residence
at Elliott Tuesday evening of Mr. John DeWitt, a respected resident of
Bathurst. Mr. DeWitt was one of the
best known men of Bathurst. Born at
Elliot in 1837, he was thus 67 years old, and it may be said his whole life
time was lived at his birthplace. He
was the son of the late John DeWitt, of German descent, and U.E. Loyalist
stock. Deceased served his time at the
blacksmithing trade with Walter Hunter in the stand John Dittrick now occupies,
some fifty years ago. He ran a large
farm in Bathurst, established a smithy business of his own at Elliott, and opened
and managed a general store and post office for years. The “Comers” will always be associated with
the memory of deceased. His wife’s
maiden name was Mary Neil, and with her three sons and seven daughters mourn
for the loss of the husband and father.
The famiy are: John, Wemyss; William, Elliott; Mrs. Doyle, Wemyss; Mrs.
Noonan, Christie’s Lake; Miss Gertrude, Chicago; and Thomas, Sophia, Ida, Ethel
and Loreta at home. Mr. DeWitt had been
ill the past six months and had suffered six paralytic strokes. He was affected the last time just fourteen
weeks ago and its effects could not be shaken off. He was gradually growing weaker and was conscious till Sunday
night. Mr. DeWitt was a foremost man in
his district, and very industrious and a hard worker. In politics he was Conservative.
Two brothers and a sister survive: Zephaniah, in Plainview, Minn, and
Roderick, in Winnipeg. The funeral is
to take place Friday morning to St. Vincent de Paul’s Church thence to the
Catholic Cemetery in Perth. (23 Sep 1904 pg 4)

Miss Dowdall died at the Presbytery, in Eganville, on Monday, at the ripe age of 81 years.

KEHOE Wayside - We regret to learn of the death of
Miss Mary Kehoe, daughter of Mr. M. Kehoe, fifth line Drummond, and we extend
our sincerest sympathy to the bereaved family.
Deceased was a young girl of very endearing disposition, and was beloved
by all who knew her. While attending
school her gentle and kind disposition made her a favorite with all her schoolmates,
and since then she has gained many more friends. But this bright, promising life was brought to a close. She was in the best of health till a few
months ago, when she took a cold, which was so slight that she didn’t attend to
it at once, but after some time she found that it was more serious than she at
first thought, and about a month ago was confined to the house. During her illness the same sweet
disposition prevailed, never one murmur of complains escaping her. Although very weak, she was conscious to the
last, and on Wednesday morning called all of the family to her bedside, and
there one by one she bade them good-bye and said a parting word to each of
them. The funeral, which took place on
Friday the 23rd Nov., proceeded first to the R.C. church, and from
thence to the cemetery. It was very
largely attended. She was, only
nineteen years of age, and though we, as well as her friends, lament the loss
of one so dear to us, we trust that she has gone to a home more fitted for her
virtues and where she will be rewarded for all her goodness in this world. The family was all at home at the time of
her death except one brother, Henry, who is in Chicago, who was on account of
business transactions unable to come home.
(from another correspondence)
It was with feelings of deep sorrow that many
learned last Wednesday morning that Miss Mary Kehoe has passed away. She had been in delicate health for some
time, but lately her trouble assumed the form of acute consumption. Though the end was not unexpected, yet it
came with a shock. Mary was a young
lady of refinement, possessed of an amiable disposition, and with many shining
virtues. She was a daughter of Mr.
Michael Kehoe, and was in the 19th year of her age. The funeral took place on Friday last, and
the remains were followed to the grave by an immense concourse of friends.
We miss thee from our home, dear,
We miss thee from thy place,
A shadow o’er our life is cast,
We miss the sunshine of thy face.
We miss thy kind and willing
hand,
Thy fond and earnest care,
Our home is dark without thee—
We miss thee everywhere.
A Friend.
Drummond, Nov. 27th,
1894. (30 Nov 1894 pg 1)

In her death is also broken a link in the chain that bound the present day life of Perth and district with her late husband Mr. John Manion, of military fame. The cause of her death is ascribed to old age. Mrs. Manion was born in KilKenny, Ireland in the year 1822, Catherine Hogan being her maiden name, daughter of Daniel Hogan.

MANION DEATH OF MR. JOHN MANION – After a painful illness of some weeks, Mr. John Manion died at his old homestead residence, 3rd line of Bathurst, in the eighty-ninth year of his age. He was the son of an old soldier who fought under Wellington in the Peninsular war, and with his regiment, the 49th, took part in the battle of Crysler’s Farm, where British valor and discipline proved too much for the greatly numerical superiority of the United States forces in that conflict. The late Mr. Manion when a child of seven years witnessed this battle, and could tell to the last days of his life how he saw the U.S. ? melt away under the terrible fire of the British regulars, until horse, foot and artillery were driven from the fiend. In 1837, Mr. Manion enlisted as a volunteer in the Hon. Henry Granhant’s? company, Perth, and was one who took part in the battle of the Windmill at Prescott, where he was slightly wounded. He remained connected with the volunteer force of Canada and died a captain in the reserve militia. He learned the drill of a battery soldier in his younger days, and always took charge of the two small brass cannon in the Perth court-house yard when firing salutes on Queen’s birthday, Dominion day or other occasions of the kind. He became a Justice of the Peace years ago, was an excellent forest-ranger, and knew almost every foot of ground in the townships about here, and in the neighboring ones of Leeds, Frontenac and Addington. He was also an active worker for the County Agricultural Society, and latterly became inspector of pedlars’ licenses in the county. He was pre-eminently a hardy, vigerous man, and in the pride of his strength no doubt exposed himself too often to wet, cold and other privations in his travels around the back country, which in the end sapped his vital energies prematurely. He was born in Balinasloe?, Ireland, and leaves one brother yet living, in Sherbrooke. He was an unbending Conservative, though all the others of his brothers were staunch Liberals. His funeral took place on Sunday afternoon from his late home, near Glen Tay, to the Roman Catholic cemetery in Perth, and such a funeral never left Bathurst before. The cortege numbered about 170 vehicles, bended? By the two brass-bands and two fire companies in parade dress, from Perth, and the Perth volunteer company, and was increased on arrival in town by a large number of its citizens. The funeral service was conducted in St. John’s Church by Rev. Father Duffus, and ended at the grave by the usual religious observances; and when the earth finally closed up the grave of the old man, the volunteer company fired three volleys over the remains, and the two brass cannon he had so often captained on gala occasions, blazed forth their grim farewell to the veteran just committee, “dust to dust.

MCGOWAN Genuine regret was expressed on Saturday afternoon when it became known that D.A. (Fonzie) McGowan had died in Kingston. Five weeks ago the deceased young man was stricken while at study in Kingston with typhoid fever which was prevalent there. He was removed to the General Hospital, Kingston, and was given the best attention. His mother and his intended bride were with him in his illness and aided him to fight the ravaging work of fever. From time to time news reached his friends in town of the progress of his struggle, and there were many a fervent prayer that he would win. The typhus bacillus proved too much for our young citizen to fight successfully, and on Saturday last, in a hushed hospital chamber, in the presence of those whom he held most dear, the life spark of one who had already given promise of being a great factor in the future history of this country fluttered out – and he was no more. The remains were brought to Perth on Sunday morning express and were taken to the residence of his brother in law Mr. John Carroll, Caroline Village. Fonzie McGowan, as he was so popularly known, was born on the ninth line of Bathurst, about 24 years ago, the son of the late William McGowan, deceased some ten years. He took a common school education, and then came to Perth to learn the trade of cheesemaker. He hired with the Matheson factory, and his industriousness and stability won him his employers’ admiration. Mr. McGowan emerged from his apprenticeship as a cheesemaker whose services would be in demand. In the Matheson factory he met many farmers from all parts of the district, and with them he was a general favorite. On leaving Perth, he hired as cheesemaker for the Bathurst Mutual Factory, and his term served to further add to the excellent reputation he was making for himself. Last fall he took the Governor-General’s gold medal and a special cash prize of $25 for the best cheese. The competition, naturally, was keen, but the young cheesemaker whom we all mourn and who learned his trade in Perth had the pleasure of winnign the covered prize on his own merits. He was then working at a factory in Renfrew County. Mr. McGowan was a very industrious young man of more than ordinary ability and push. In his habits he was steady and exemplary, and very kind and courteous. He had a great ambition, and the lay reader not acquainted with him may gain some insight to it, when it is stated that when the cheese factory was closed, he spent the period in Queen’s University, fitting himself for a doctor. This was his second term, and death cut him off from a brilliant course in that hall of learning. For two sessions previous to his entry to Queen’s, he was assistant instructor at the Kingston Dairy School. Besides his mother he leaves three sisters and three brothers; Mrs. Carroll, Perth; Mrs. Peter Noonan, Pakenham; Mrs. J. Noonan, Montreal; Barney J. and John, Watertown, N.Y., and William H. of British Columbia. All were present at his funeral save the brother in the far West. The funeral took place on Monday morning to St. John’s Church where the services were held, and interment took place on Monday morning to St. John’s Church where the services were held, and interment took place in the Catholic burying ground. The pallbearers were six cousins of the deceased: Thomas Leonard, Dennis Noonan, Daniel Noonan, Peter Noonan, William Noonan and John McCann. The funeral was a very large one, and there were many citizens who walked in tribute to the young life that was cut off. The members of the Y.M.C.C. attended in a body. The floral tributes were beautiful and spoke silently the esteem in which the donors held their departed friend and relative. They included one from Queen’s “Meds” Class of 1906, the Young Men’s Catholic Club of Perth, Mr. P. Daly, of Kingston, and Mr. and Mrs. James Noonan, of Montreal. (3 Apr 1903 pg 8)

NOONAN DAN NOONAN KILLED AT HAYES SIDING – Fell
Under a Freight While Switching Early This Morning – POPULAR PERTH BOY – The
town was shocked on Thursday morning when the news came of the sudden and
tragic death at Hayes Pit. Between Mountain and Kemptville, of Mr. Dan Noonan,
son of Mr. James Noonan, sr. Dan was a
brakeman on the C.P.R. and while fixing a brake on a ballast car at Hayes Pit
about half past eight this morning, was struck by a telegraph pole. Three cars ran over him, death being
instantaneous. The remains will be
brought to Perth for interment. Deceased
was a popular young man in Perth and counted his friends by the score. When he lived here, he worked at the felt
mill, but gave this up a few years ago, to go braking on the C.P.R. Dan was a baseball player of renown, and his
old team associates here and in Smiths Falls deeply regret his sudden end. Sympathy goes out to his bereaved parents,
brothers and sisters in their hour of affliction. (23 Sep 1910 pg 1)

NOONAN LIKED WHILE LIVING RESPECTED AT DEATH
Remains of Late Daniel Noonan Followed to
Last Resting Place by Large Numbers
A RAILWAY FATALITY
The awful and tragic ending that overtook our
old friend Mr. Daniel Noonan, while at his daily work last Thursday morning is
but another evidence of that old saying “in the midst of life, we are in
death.” Dan, as his intimate friends
had the pleasure of calling him, was cut down in the full enjoyment of strong
and healthy manhood, being but thirty years of age. He had visited his home here on the Monday previous, had
performed a few odd chores about the house for his mother and promised he would
do more for her when he came back on Friday.
But this was not to be. Dan when
he left here on Monday had done his last work for his bereaved parents and had
passed the last word with his many old friends in town. His death is as sad as it is sudden. He was cut off without a moment’s warning,
and the life spark was snuffed out without a struggle. He met death while at work. On the fateful morning he was braking on the
gravel train in charge of Conductor Phillips.
The train was at Hayes’ gravel pit at the time, and the accident
occurred while coming out of the pit on to the main line. Dan was standing with one foot on the car
and the other on the step at the side fixing a brake, which was bent and out of
order, on the side of the car, when he was struck by a telegraph pole and
knocked under the cares. Three of the
cars passed over his body above the hips and when picked up he was dead. An Italian workman saw him before he came to
the fatal point and yelled at him but evidently Dan never heard him, for the
next moment the Italian saw him knocked off the side of the car, falling under
the train. The pole was only eight
inches from the track. It is explained
that as the pit was opened up, the track into it had been moved closer to the
diggings from time to time, and at the time of the accident lay within, eight
inches of the pole. The law states the
distance shall be six feet between pole and truck.
REMAINS BROUGHT HOME
When the accident was reported to the
trainman, the remains of deceased were removed to Mountain, and proper
authorities and friends were notified.
The Brotherhood of Trainmen at Smiths Falls, of which Dan was a member,
sent Conductors Jas. Douglas, Jas, Chalmers and V. Fuller, with undertaker
Mars, down to take care of the body.
They went down in the afternoon and the remains were brought to Smiths
Falls on a freight, and taken to Perth at midnight, and were in charge of
Messrs. J. Chalmers, J. Douglas and V. Fuller, for the trainmen, and Mr. Raoul
Jenner of the B of L.F & E, all of whom remained here till after the
funeral.
HE WAS A FAVORITE
The remains were taken to his parents’ home
on D’Arcy Street, and were viewed by hundreds, who called to see them for the
last time and to speak a word of sympathy to the bereaved. Dan was a favorite with all. Kind and good-natured, his friends never
knew him to be angry or annoyed. Faithful,
honest and industrious, he was a credit to the town. Above all he was kind and considerate to his mother, and she will
miss him the most, for the sun rose and set on Dan in her eyes. Others, too, will miss him, and many will
always cherish pleasant recollections of their associations with him. Particularly so, is this the case of his
baseball comrades both in Perth and Smiths Falls. He learned the game here with the old guard, and when it came his
turn to take charge he passed the ball science on to others. And Dan knew the game and played it
well. He lived here till the spring of
1907, giving up his employment at the felt mill, to engage as brakeman with the
C.P.R. with headquarters at Smiths Falls.
His sobriety was a strong trait in his character and it won for him the
confidence of his employers and fellow man.
While generous with his earnings he had made one or two good dividend
paying investments and of course carried insurance in each of the three societies
to which he belonged.
THE FUNERAL

St. John’s church and cemetery and was largely attended. The funeral cortege was headed by the

She attended the Separate School, and passed in succession through the Collegiate Institute and County Model School. She then taught school at Petawawa and Alice. Last summer she graduated from the Ottawa Normal School, and took charge of her school at Deux Rivieres at the first of the fall school term. Miss Noonan was very successful as a teacher, and kind to her pupils, who were endeared to her. She was a social favorite with all her larg circle of friends in town, who were attracted to her by her inestimable qualities. Mrs. Noonan and her family have the sympathy of all in their sudden sorrow. Mr. John Noonan, of Noonan & Horan, is a brother, and Miss Tessie, a teacher at Mackey’s Station is a sister. The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon to St. John’s Church, where service was held. Interment was in the Catholic Cemetery. The funeral was very largely attended, over a hundred young men walking.

After the death of her father the family moved to Montreal where they remained for several years before coming to Regina. Shortly after their arrival in the West, Mrs. Noonan died. Miss Noonan took her mother’s place and kept house for her brothers and sisters until they married, since which time she had made her home with Mrs. Peterkin.

The deceased, who was in her thirtieth year, was a young lady of most amiable disposition, and was but a few days ago, apparently, in the best of health, but early on Sunday morning she was seized with rheumatism of the heart, from which she never rallied? The funeral, which took place to St. John’s Church, Perth, on Wednesday afternoon, was one of the largest ever seen on the streets of Perth, bearing testimony to the love borne her by her large circle of friends and acquaintances.

NOONAN OBIT – We regret to have to record the death of Mr. James Noonan, of this town, which took place somewhat unexpectedly on Thursday morning. About a month ago Mr. Noonan had a knee dislocated, and was confined to bed during the healing. He had been troubled for something similar to asthma, but being a strong, healthy man, no serious results were entertained, so that his death was a surprise. Mr. Noonan was born in Bathurst, and lived until a few years ago on the homestead farm at Christie’s Lake when he removed? To town. He was a genial, whole-souled man, with the respect of the community. His age was between sixty and sixty five years. He was a Roman Catholic and a staunch Reformer always. (17 Nov 1893 pg 1)

NOONAN FATAL ACCIDENT – It becomes our painful duty to record the particulars of a dreadful accident which happened to a young lady named Amelia Noonan, daughter of Mr. Denis Noonan, a respectable farmer living in the Township of Bathurst, about six miles from Perth. On Monday evening last, Miss Noonan left town for home, in company with another young woman, and being offered seats in two lumber wagons which were going their way, they each accepted the offer and proceeded homewards by this convoyance. Miss Noonan was seated in the first wagon, between the driver and a man named Thomas Leonard, who it appears was at the time under the influence of liquor, while her companion was riding in the next one. The accident, by all accounts appears to have been caused in this wise. When the parties had nearly arrived at their destination, Leonard commenced taking improper liberties with the young woman, which she resisted as well as her situation would permit, and seeing this her companion called upon her to come to the wagon in which she was seated instead of the one she was then riding on. On requesting the driver, a man named Barber, to allow her to do this he slackened the pace of his team, but before the horses could be stopped, Miss Noonan frightened by the brutal actions of Leonard, jumped from the wagon, dragging Leonard with her, when sad to relate, the heavy hind wheel of the wagon glancing from his shoulder, struck her on the forehead, killing her instantly. Dr. Nichol was at once sent for, but of course nothing could be done for the poor girl. The feeling of the parents of the unfortunate young lade can be imagined when the news of the dreadful affair came to their ears, and the lifeless remains were carried home. The sad event cast quite a gloom over the neighbourhood as Miss Noonan was much respected and generally beloved by all who knew her. She was but 20 years of age at the time of her premature death. (22 Sep 1865 pg 2)
NOONAN THE DEATH OF MISS NOONAN – We have been informed by several parties that there was a mistake in the account of the manner in which the late Miss Noonan came to her death, which was published in last week’s Courier. We made very particular enquiries about the manner previous to publishing the account in question, but as everybody had a different story to tell, and as no official investigation had taken place, we were obliged to take the story from the best authorities we could get at the time. Even yet we do not know the exact truth of the matter, as no sworn deposition has been published by any person who witnessed the deplorable event, but as we have been requested to make a correction in our account of it, we cheerfully do so, on the authority of a member of the young lady’s family. When Barber tried to stop his horses in order to let Miss Noonan off the wagon, they jumped forward and Leonard fell from his seat. In trying to balance himself he grasped Miss Noonan by the arm and dragged her to the ground with him. The wagon wheel then rolled over his shoulder, striking the unfortunate young lady on the head, and killing her instantly, as stated. It is reported that a hotel keeper, from whose place Leonard started home, says that he was quite sober at the time, but as no hotel keeper has made such a statement in our presence, we cannot vouch for its truth, and publish it merely because some of the Leonard’s friends appear desirous of attaching importance to his state of sobriety at the time. However that may be, it does not alter the amount of praise of blame to be attached to his conduct in the unhappy occurrence, because drunkenness being a voluntary act, a man is justly held responsible both legally and morally for what he does whilst in the state as if he were sober. It does not appear that any direct blame can be attached to Leonard, as causing the death of Miss Noonan, but public opinion will attach a certain amount of moral responsibility to his conduct in rendering it necessary for her to leave the wagon, in the attempt to do which she lost her life, because it is to be presumed that if he had not annoyed her she would not have desired to leave the wagon, and consequently would have reached her home in safety. Some of Leonard’s friends appear to be in a state of violent excitement about the matter, not because death has been suddenly brought into a happy family in a dreadful manner, or because a fine young woman has been stricken down in the pride of youth and health, but because there was a mistake in the account of the accident, which was published in last week’s Courier. The cause of their trouble we must say is not creditable to their humanity. We endeavoured by every means in our power to gain true account of it, and if a mistake occurred, it was without any intention on our part of doing injustice to anyone. We have no interest in publishing anything but the truth, and as the statements we now publish, proves we were not materially wrong? Last week. If they still feel aggrieved, they should have the matter investigated before the Coroner, and then have the sworn statements of the parties who witnessed the occurrence, given to the public. Any other statements cannot be relied on as strictly correct, and Mr. Leonard’s friends must excuse us for declining to publish their consensical? Vaporings? about it. We are requested to state in connection with this melancholy occurrence, that no blame whatever can be attached to the teamster Barber, who is very respectable and steady young man.

NOONAN - LEONARD APOLOGY – I hereby beg to state that the letter I caused to be published in the Perth Courier of October 20th, was untrue, and that on the unfortunate occasion alluded to in said letter, I did, in some degree, misbehave towards Miss Noonan, but had no intention of causing serious consequences, and now express deep conitition? Ofr the lamentable accident, caused, perhaps, by the fully? of the moment. THOMAS LEONARD, Bathurst, November 1st, 1865. (3 Nov 1865 pg 3)

NOONAN DENNIS J. NOONAN PASSES AWAY – A great concourse of sorrowing friends and acquaintances gathered in Perth on Monday morning of this week to pay a last tribute to one Bathurst’s most prominent and popular native sons, Mr. Dennis J. Noonan, whose death the previous Friday August 7th, was universally regretted.
Few men were more widely known in Lanark County and none more highly respected. His genial Celtic wit, and humor made him a welcome guest in every circle, while his almost uncanny ability to read human nature made him a leader in his community. Born in Bathurst in 1853 he received his early education there and on March 13th, 1876, was married to Mary Josephine Lee, of the same place. For many years he lived on the 4th con. Of Bathurst and later moved to the 3rd line near Elliott. Always a successful farmer, he combined with this the business of a drover in which his natural shrewdness made for success. His abilities were recognized by his acquaintances and in 1890 he was elected to Bathurst Township Council and since then the history of Bathurst and of Mr. Noonan’s life have been linked together.
He served as Councillor from 1890 to 1894, as Deputy Reeve in 1895 and ’96, as Reeve in 1897 and ’98, and as County Commissioner in 1905, and 1906. In the latter year he was elected Warden of Lanark County, a position in which he did honor to himself and the municipality he represented. From 1919 to 1920 he was assessor of the Township filling that difficult position satisfactorily and after moving to Perth served in the same capacity for a year.
Municipal affairs was only one of the public enterprises in which he was interested. In 1903 he was elected to the Board of Directors of the Lanark County Farmers’ Mutual Fire Insurance Co., and had been on the Board ever since, first as director and for the last eleven years as President, a position which he held at the time of his death. His advice and guidance has been a very material factor in the growth of the Company from a comparatively small organization to one doing business over most of Eastern Ontario.
For the last twenty-seven years he had been salesman for the Bathurst Mutual Cheese Factory and for many years has acted as auctioneer on the Perth Cheese Board. In the latter capacity he pitted his wits against the shrewdest of business men and his ability to handle them resulted in Perth Cheese Board holding an enviable position for high prices among Canadian Boards.
For many years he had been connected with the Perth and Christy’s Lake Telephone Association, first as President and in the last six years as Secretary-Treasurer and Manager.
In politics Mr. Noonan was a staunch Liberal who lived to participate in a political contest and in religion a faithful member of the Roman Catholic Church.
The funeral took place on Monday morning from his late residence, on Drummond street, east, to St. John’s Church where solemn requiem mass was sung by Rev. Father Keeley, of Stanleyville, and interment was made in St. John’s cemetery.
The pallbearers were Messrs. H.A. O’Donnell, J.T. Conway, F.A. Robertson, R.J. Byrnes, Geo. Williams and Daniel J. Mitchell, while the honorary pallbearers were the directors and officials of the Lanark County Fire Insurance Company.
Beautiful floral tributes were received as follows: From the family, a pillow; from the Perth Cheese Board a wreath; from the Lanark County Insurance Co., a cross; and from the Bathurst Mutual Cheese factory a spray. Spiritual offerings were made by a wide circle of relatives and friends.
His death is the first break in a large and effectionate family circle of which he was the eldest member and he leaves to mourn his loss, his widow and six sons and seven daughters; Dennis and Dan, of Cadogan, Mt.; Lawrence, Granton, Ont.; Wm. J. on the homestead in Bathurst, Herbert in Perth, and Bernard, Huntington, L.I.N.Y.; Annie, Mrs. Mooney, Pakenham; Minnie, Mrs. J. DeWitt, Montreal; Gertrude, Mrs. Dan. Brady, Bathurst; Aggie, Mrs. Thos. Brady, Bathurst; Kathleen, Mrs. Wm. Brady, Bathurst; Madeline, Mrs. Phillip Egan, Carleton Place; and Olive at home, together with seventy-eight grandchildren.
He is also survived by five brothers and four sisters; Peter, of Pakenham; James, Detroit; Geo. A., Christy’s Lake; John, Saginaw, Mich.; Harry T., Perth; Mrs. Helen McKittrick, Saginaw, Mich; Mrs. Patrick McKnight, Bay City, Mich.; Mrs. Dan. McGowan, Alberta, and Mrs. Edward Lee, Perth.

Conway, of Perth, having arrived at his bed-side a few hours before his death. Deceased was born in Burgess, receiving his first education there, and then at the Perth Collegiate Institute. From the Collegiate Institute, he studied medicine at Queen’s University, Kingston, from which he graduated as a doctor last May at the early age of twenty-four years. He went to Bay City last July as interne in the Mercy Hospital, and in his short experience as a surgeon proved that he was exceptionally well cited for his chosen profession and that there was a bright future ahead of him, death however, cutting off his young and promising life. Dr. Noonan was of a quiet and likeable disposition and formed a great many close and admiring friends not only in the community where he was born, but during his years at the Collegiate Institute here, at Queen’s in Kingston and recently at Bay City.

NOONAN In the death of Mr. Peter Noonan, which took place at the family homestead on the ninth line of Bathurst on Friday last, the County of Lanark loses one of its best known and most honoured citizens. Mr. Noonan was the eldest son of the late James Noonan, who for many years was Reeve of the Township of Bathurst. From his mother Jane Rudsdale, he inherited the sturdiness, and solidity, and the integrity of the Anglo-Saxon, while from his father he derived the warm heart, the bright mind and the generous disposition of the Irishman. Educated in the best schools which Ontario possessed 60 years ago, and being of a studious turn of mind, Mr. Noonan became at an early age, one of the best informed men of his native county and lent his talents and ability to every movement which was for the good of his fellow-man. In 1858, Mr. Noonan married Miss Mary Manion, daughter of the late Thomas Manion, of Manion, who survives him. Twelve children were born to this union nine of whom are living, viz; James T., of Ottawa, inspector for the Northern Life Assurance Co. of Canada; Peter J., farmer of the 8th line Bathurst; Michael E. and William D., farmers of the ninth line of Bathurst; George A., principal of the Pendleton Public School; Mrs. G. Yack, of Harper; and Misses Jane A., Emily W. and Margaret J., at home. One son, William J. and two daughters Mary E. and Theresa M. preceded their father to the grave. The funeral which took place to St. John’s R.C. Church on Sunday afternoon was one of the largest which ever passed through the Town of Perth. Mr. Noonan was a servent Roman Catholic in religion, and a staunch Liberal in politics. Requieseat? in peace. (10 Jul 1903 pg 4)
