4881 Obituary - "Christian Guardian", Toronto, 10 Oct 1877 - Henry Brett
The subject of this notice was born in the County of Sligo, Ireland, in the year 1791, and departed this life March 1877. At an early age he was brought under the influence of Wesleyan Methodism, and when the hymn was being given out, commencing "While quiet in my house I sit" the Spirit carried conviction to his heart. He was led to class meeting by two of his sisters, and through their example and prayer, he was enabled by faith to rest on Christ for salvation. At the age of seventeen he united with the Wesleyan Methodist Church, of which he remained a member until the day of his death.
In the year 1850 he and his family emigrated to Canada, and settled in the Township of Mono near Rosemont. He joined the church at what was called Thompson's appointment. Afterwards he moved to Tossorontio, but still retained his connection with the church. Getting well stricken in years he retired from farming and went to live with his son-in-law, Brother John Dixon, an esteemed local preacher at Lavender on the Hornings Mills Mission. Here he received all the kindness and care that could be bestowed on him by a daughter and loving grandchildren until the last battle was fought and the last victory claimed.
A few Sundays before his decease, his experience in class was marked by a more than ordinary depth and richness. He glories in his unclouded prospect for home.
On the 20th of March when asked how he felt, he said, "I am weak in body and will not be long here; but I feel the promises sustain me." I don't think I have ever witnessed a more peaceful and happy Christian. Though eight-six years of age he could read fine print without the aid of glasses. His end was certainly one of great peace; only a fulfillment of the old saying, "Our people die well." He has left behind a large family and an aged widow who is peacefully waiting to join him who has obtained the prize.

4882 Obituary - 13 April 1911 - The late Mr. Thomas Polk Willsallen passed away full of years at his Sydney residence, Uig Lodge, Point Piper, at the ripe age of seventy-six years on the 8th March last. He came out to Australia seventy-two years ago with his mother and step-father, having been born at Ballina, Ireland, and his first experience of pastoral life was gained forty years ago, when he went into partnership with his step-brother, the late Mr. E. G. Higgins, of Kickerbell, Quirindi, who died a few months ago. Mr. Willsallen was certainly one of the pioneers of the Liverpool Plains, where he first settled some forty years ago on Gunnible Station, about four miles out of Gunnedah. Later on he acquired Rangari Station, about twenty miles from Gunnible, and Toolebuc Station in the Winton district, Northern Queensland. He also at one time owned Kercargo Station, in the Walgett district, and Mundowey and Cuerindi Stations, in the Manilla district, but these he sold some years before his death. He leaves a widow and three sons (Messrs. Edwin Herbert, T. L., and P. S. Willsallen) and two daughters (Mrs. J. M. Antill and Miss Daisy Willsallen). All his sons are interested in pastoral pursuits.
Mr. Willsallen always took a keen interest in the growth and welfare of Gunnedah and district, and was generally noted for his generous disposition and gifts to all charitable institutions. He was for many years (until ill-health compelled him to retire from all active pursuits, and live at his Sydney residence) president of the P.A. and H. Society, Gunnedah, and the Gunnedah Hospital, for which latter institution he built a fine brick women's ward, now known as the Willsallen ward. His remains were conveyed to Gunnedah, and interred in the family vault there, and the cortege at the funeral was a lengthy one and fully representative of the district. The deceased gentleman had been ailing for the last two years, and the end was not unexpected. His death is much regretted by a wide circle of friends. http://oa.anu.edu.au/obituary/willsallen-thomas-polk-1048

4883 Obituary - a Mount Forest newspaper
A member of a pioneer family of Arthur Township and Mount Forest, Rube Allen Sr died in Florida on October 20th. The following obituary was taken from a Florida paper and received by Mrs Alf Hutchinson, a sister. He was born at Riverstown, a son of Mr and Mrs Alex Allen, 81 years ago.

Mr Allyn founded the Sarasota Sun and the Florida Fisherman. He was a colourful figure in the newspaper and outdoor fields, but had lived for the past few years in retirement at Ruskin. He was the father of Rube Allyn, fishing editor of the St Petersburg Times and of G Wayne Allyn, of the Times composing room. To daughters and his wife also survive.

Well known in politics in the 1920s, he began his career as a tramp printer, working all over the United States. He graduated from a school of dramatics and oratory in Philadelphia and travelled for a year as a humorist on the Chautauqua circuit, appearing on the same platform with James Whitcomb Riley and Bill Nye. He tried his hand in dramatic roles on the vaudeville stage in New York city for about a year and finally came to Florida in 1906, settling in Sarasota. In 1913, he founded the Sarasota Sun but discontinued the publication of the weekly to take a position in the Hog Island shipyards, Philadelphia, during World War 1. He later represented the employees there in Congress.

Returning to Florida he bought a newspaper plant and began publication of the Florida Fisherman, in which he advocated the conservation of Wild Life. He was active in the Isaac Walton league. Mr Allyn built a home in the Big Bayou section of St Petersburg, but of recent years lived in retirement in Ruskin Inlet.

Mr Allyn passed away at Riverside Hospital, Bradenton, after an illness of several weeks.

4890 Obituary - from the North Hastings Review, June 1881 -
SUDDEN DEATH - Mr Robert Burnside, township road surveyor, died very suddenly at his residence in the township of Madoc on Saturday last. The deceased had been complaining for some time previously of a slight illness, but as he was not confined to his bed it was not considered at all serious. He retired as usual on Friday night, and was apparently well the next morning, but towards noon he was seized, it is thought, by a stroke of partial paralysis, and in a few moments expired. The funeral on Monday was one of the largest that has ever been seen in the township.

4893 Obituary - https://www.legacy.com/ca/obituaries/muskokaregion/name/iris-bandy-obituary?pid=199502512
It is with deep sadness that we announce the passing of our Mom, Iris Bandy, on July 13, 2021, at Granite Ridge Retirement Residence (Gravenhurst, Ontario).

Born at home in a small farming community, Alma Heights, near Thessalon, Ontario, she was the middle child of Mildred and Stirling Proud. She was predeceased by her brothers Ken and Dale Proud. She will forever be remembered as the loving mother of Susan Murdoch (Ken) and Sherry Smith (Rick). Iris was a doting grandmother and will be sorely missed by Bryan and Jeff (Hollie) Murdoch, Carly Smith, Kristi (Peter) MacDonald and Lainie Smith (Ben). Great grandchildren Scout (Lemieux), Edie Iris (MacDonald), Paisley and Brynnley (Murdoch) who are too young to understand how much they were loved by a woman who treasured family.

Iris was the cherished and adored wife of Willard Bandy for 60 years. In retirement, they enjoyed travel, winters in Florida, curling, playing bridge and golf. Iris volunteered, made endless egg salad sandwiches for church functions and tended to their beautiful home and garden.

Iris was encouraged to train as a teacher and will be fondly remembered by those whose hearts and minds she touched. A teacher never really knows how far their influence extends. Her kindness, humour and love will never be forgotten. Mom made us realize our self-worth and made us feel important and worthy of her unconditional love. We never, for a moment, felt otherwise. Mom loved fashion, always had perfect hair and kept an immaculately clean house. She and Dad had wonderful friends, enjoyed parties and many "happy hours". They loved to dance and were very skilled! It was a privilege, a joy and a blessing to have Iris as our Mom. We are close as a family because of her. Her Legacy will live on in each of her grandchildren.

We would like to thank the entire staff of Granite Ridge Retirement Residence for the compassionate care shown to Mom. In lieu of flowers we request that donations be made in Iris's name to The Imagination Library, Muskoka Chapter, in support of childhood literacy. This pairs well with Iris's love and passion for teaching children.

Throughout the week his condition was not considered serious and at 8.45 last evening he was bright, and conversed freely with his daughter who had come to see him, telling her to go home and not to stay out too late. The end came shortly after she had gone, failure of the heart being the immediate cause of death.

When still a young man he came ta Canada and settled in Weston, Ontario. The discovery of gold in Australia, led Mr. Allen to venture to that land of promise and together with a friend, set out for the gold fields.

Coming hack to Canada, Mr. Allen again went to Weston* [Artesmia Twp, Grey Co] and later moved to Owen Sound in, 1857. He went into a mercantile business on Union Street and later was a member of the firm of Allen and Scully in the Parker block on Poulette St. He retired from business some years ago and for several years has been Clerk of the Division Court. Mr. Allen was for three or four years a member of the town council and for one term represented North Grey as Liberal member In the House of Commons.

He took an active part in bringing the G. T. R. [Grand Trunk Railway] in here and the station, Ben Allen, was named in his honor. He was also interested in the Meaford railway proposition and was secretary of the Simcoe, Grey and Bruce Railway Company.

Mr. Allen was an active worker in the Methodist Church, especially in Sunday School work and for about twenty years was Superintendent of Scrope St. Methodist Sunday School. He was also a member of the Board of Trustees.

Besides his widow, he is survived by two sons, Will, of Rochester and James of Toronto, and one daughter, Miss Kate, of New York. Arrangements for the funeral have not as yet been completed.
