MRS. VANDERBURG DEAD – HUSBAND CANNOT  RECOVER

             The hand of affliction has fallen heavily on the family of Marcus Vanderburg, contractor, West Main street. Ten days ago he met with an accident from which he still lies unconscious in the hospital with practically no hope of his ultimate recovery.

            On Saturday evening at 7.45 his wife, Sarah, passed away after some months’ illness. Whether her husbands accident hastened her end or not, it is difficult to say. In his present state Mr. Vanderburg cannot know of the death of his life partner.

            Mrs. Vanderburg was born at Grimsby, the daughter of the late Wm. Ware. She is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Cameron of Welland and one brother, Chas. Ware of Thorold Township. The funeral takes place at 1.30 today from the house to Fonthill cemetery.
