Mrs. W J McNaughton Dies At Lancaster, nee isabel EdgarLancaster lost one of its oldest and most highly esteemed residents in the death on Wednesday, Sept. 9th of Mrs. W. J. McNaughton. The deceased who was formerly Miss Isabel Edgar, was born in the second concession of Lancaster on Oct. 23rd 1859 and was the last member of that family. In August 1941 she met with an accident at her home on Oak Street, which necessitated her removal to Cornwall General Hospital suffering with a fractured hip. Returning to Lancaster the following month she was taken to the home of her son Robert and Mrs. McNaughton where she received every attention in the months that followed and had recovered nicely . About six weeks ago she went to visit her daughter Mrs. J. R. McLachlan and Mr. McLachlan and was apparently enjoying good health until Sunday when she suffered a stroke from which she never regained consciousness. She was a women of many beautiful traits of character. She had a kind and affectionate disposition with a cherry greeting for her friends on all occasions and will be sadly missed by all. She was a diligent church worker and was an honorary president in both The Ladies Aid and Women's Missionary Society of St. Andrew's Church. Her home was always open to members of these societies and their friends, and many pleasant memories will be cherished of gatherings held in her home. The funeral which was largely attended was held on Friday afternoon from the residence of J. R. McLachlan to St. Andrew's Church where the service was conducted by Rev. J. A. Smith assisted by Rev. G.E. Evans of Knox Church. Interment took place on the family plot in second concession cemetery. The pallbearers were six nephews, Robert Edgar, E. L . McNaughton, R. D. McNaughton, Alex F. McLennan, Lorne McBain, Thomas Ross. The casket was surrounded by beautiful flowers, a silent token of love from family and friends. Many messages of sympathy wee received by the family.

Lancaster native Rev. Lloyd Fourney qualifies in both respects and received an d honourary doctorate from his alma mater the Presbyterian College in Montreal at its graduation last week. "I was dumb founded, amazed," said Fourney, who is now minister at the First Presbyterian Church in Edmonton but is still well known in "the area through his parents Eileen and John Fourney, For Lloyd Fourney, recognition isn't what draws him to the ministry, it's helping others that touches his heart. "In the church, you meet a lot of wonderful people, said Fourney. From weddings, to funerals to sickness, Fourney is able to instinctively connect with and comfort people. "You're privileged to be in private parts of their life, " he explained. Seeing that relationship as a privilege is what draws Fourney close to his congregation and to the numerous homeless and refugees he helps. His church in Edmonton is a corner stone in the city foodbank and has sponsored refugees from as far away as the Sudan, Iraq, Zaire, Rhwanda and Ethiopia. Caption under photo reads;Rev Lloyd Fourney preached at St. Andrews in Lancaster commemorating his 30th anniversary of ordination.
This effort to go one step beyond duty is what prompted the college to offer him the
doctorate. (June 27, 1999, R. R.) updatesee p.170 under (5) 1.1.2.3.3 Harriet maria Morrison M625, 419, FThe News, February 6, 1914, pg. 4, col. 2, Glen Nevis Mrs. John L. MorrisonThe Sudden demise of Hattie Maria Morrison, wife of John L.
