    Obituary

    The death occurred at 2:15 o'clock Thursday morning, at his home, Maccan, of Jeptha Harrison, one of the oldest residents of the community, being 85 years of age. He was in Amherst on the 15th ult. and on his return stepped off the train at Maccan while it was still in motion. He was taken to his home and medical aid was immediately summoned. At first, it was thought there was nothing serious, but later his injuries developed and he gradually grew worse until his death.
    Mr Harrison was a son of the late Jessie Harrison and Elizabeth Hoeg, his wife, both of Maccan. He was twice married, his first wife being Miss Ella Atkinson, by whom there was a large family. The second wife was Mrs Francis Oxley of River Phillip, by whom there was no issue.
    The following members of the family survive, Lloyd, Skagway, Alaska, Maude, Baptist Missionary at Parlakimedi, India, who is visiting her sister, Mary (Mrs. Herbert Taylor, of Hoquam, Washington) enroute to India, after a lengthy furlough spent at home, Verne J., on the homestead Maccan, Dr. Laurie Harrison, of Halifax, Mrs. Gillespie, Halifax, also one brother Herbert J. McCann, and two sisters - Mrs. John Roach, and Mrs. Thomas Higgins, Maccan.
    Mr Harrison was for many years Crown Land Surveyor, a Justice of the Peace and served on the Municipal Council. He was regarded as a man of superior judgment and stood high in his community as an honest and upright man.
    The funeral was held from the home Sunday afternoon, and was very largely attended by people from Maccan and from districts of considerable distance away. Following a prayer at the house by Rev. Hubley, pastor of the River Hebert Church, the funeral cortege proceeded to the Baptist Church where a service was held. Mr. Hubley conducted the service and was assisted by Rev. Dr. Steele, a life long friend of Mr. Harrison, who gave the address, in which he paid very high tribute to the deceased as a citizen. He referred to the fact that for over thirty years he had been associated with him as a member of the Municipal School Commission, and stated that he was a man of sound judgment, upright and honorable in all his dealings and a man for whom he dad the highest regard. The choir of the Church very finely rendered to the following hymns: "Peace Perfect Peace," "Lead Kindly Light," and "I do not Ask." A male quartette consisting of W.W. Wood, J. Richmond, V.N. Hoeg, and J. Bishop, beautifully rendered "Nearer My God to Thee." The pall bearers were Jeptha Baird, James Baird, Herbert Blenkhorn, Herbert Atkinson, Jesse Harrison of Wakefield, Mass. and Arnold Harrison all nephews of the deceased.
    There were a number of very beautiful floral offerings testifying to the esteem in which the deceased was held by his many friends and acquaintances.
