LANGTON

It was with much regret that the residents of this village learned of the death of Lewis Boughner on Monday morning, 7 Apr 1919.

Mr. Boughner had not been well for some time, but went to the barn on Monday morning to do his chores. Feeling ill, he returned to the house, and a few minutes later passed away.

He had lived on the farm on the 13th Concession of Walsingham all his life, and was much respected in the the community.

He was the youngest son of the late David Wade and Elizabeth Boughner, and the last of a family of six children.

Besides his sorrowing widow, he leaves to mourn his loss four daughters: Mrs. George Brownlee of Carholme, Leota of Moose Jaw, Helen and Marian at home, and two sons, Colonel, now overseas, and Harold of Langton. The late S. M. Boughner of Delhi was a brother.

The funeral took place from his late residence on Friday, 11 Apr 1919, interment taking place in Langton Cemetery.
