    Obituary

    The Angel of Death entered the home of Mr. Burleigh Owen, Malpeque, on March 4th and took for its own the Mother, Mrs. Barbara Owen, in her 58th year. Deceased had been ill just three days, with that ravaging disease the “flu.” All that tender nursing and medical skill could do, was done, but of no avail. She had always been a sufferer from bronchial trouble and asthma and there seemed no hope, when the disease started. Mrs. Owen was a devoted Christian wife and mother, and was held in the highest esteem by all who knew her. The funeral service was held on Friday March 9th, the Rev. J. M. Murchison, officiating.
    She leaves to mourn her loss, Miss Minnie of Brooklyn, Mass., Miss Maggie, of Syracuse, N.Y., who were summoned home in their mother’s illness; Montgomery Owen, Manager of the Bank of Nova Scotia, Toronto, who arrived home on Wednesday; Benjamin, of Charlottetown; Claude and Burleigh of Malpeque; Mrs. Bryon Stewart of Hamilton; also Miss Clara at home. Interment took place in Princetown Cemetery beside her husband who predeceased her three years ago.
