  	Obituary George R. Anderson, of Halifax, died in London, England on the 1st inst., of paralysis. He was a native of Halifax, but so well known and intimately connected in Woodstock that his death will be deeply felt here. He had a stroke of paralysis at Halifax last winter, from which he so far recovered as to enable him, accompanied by Mrs. and Miss Anderson , to take a trip to England, hoping by a season in another climate, and with the best possible medical advice, to be still further restored. Though apparently doing as well as he could expect, he was stricken again on Tuesday, August 31st, and died the next day. In October, 1852, he married Harriet, daughter of the late Jeremiah Connell, M. P.; she died in 1862, leaving four children-Minnie, John, Katie and Ida. On July 24th 1866, he married Susan Helen, eldest daughter of the late Hon. Charles Connell. In his painful bereavement in a distant land, she and his children have the deep sympathy of a wide circle of friends
