We sincerely regret to chronicle the death of Ella Kestle, who passed away on Saturday last, June 10, after a long period of intense suffering.

The remains were taken on Monday to the station at Windham Centre, and from thence were conveyed by 
rail to Exeter, Huron Co., for interment.

A large concourse of people assembled at the station to witness the departure of the remains, accompanied by 
the sorrowing parents.

At the parsonage, however, before leaving, a short service was conducted by the Rev. Mr. Sabine, of Otterville.

At present with the exception of the pastor and wife, the different members of the family are all home, including 
Mr. Asa Kestle of Ohio, and Mr. Luther Kestle of Toronto, having arrived on Sunday and Monday respectively.

The community at large deeply sympathize with the grief stricken family in this their time of sore bereavement.
