  	LAID TO REST Mr. Merrill V. Strang Amherst, Nov. 15 - The largely attended funeral of the late Merrill V. Strang, son of the late Calvin G. and Annie T. Strang, was held on Saturday afternoon from the United Church, Tidnish Bridge, N.B. Mr. Strang was born in Tidnish 44 years ago, his father being a prominent business man there. His sudden passing came as a severe shock to his relatives and many friends. Rev. Aubrey Moore, of Port Elgin, minister of the church, officiated and spoke very impressively from the 14th Chapter of John. The Choir sang, "In The Garden" and "Safe In the Arms of Jesus." The deceased is survived by a wife, son and daughter and two sisters, Mrs. Arthur MacCallum of Amherst and Mrs. T.H. Lambert of Saint John, N.B. The floral tributes from friends and relatives were many and beautiful and included a wreath from the firm of J.A. and W.A. Tingley. The pallbearers were Gordon MacCallum, Arthur MacCallum, Jr., Richard Strang, Eddie Davidson, Edgar Oulton and Willard Weaver. Burial was in the family plot in the rural cemetery at Tidnish Bridge. (From the Sackville Tribune Newspaper, Monday, 20 November 1944, pg 4.)
