Obituary
Tyrrell and surrounding
neighborhood are mourning the loss of one of its brightst [sic]
and most cheerful young men in the person of Ross Misener, who was
called home on 2 Sep 1910, after a very short illness, and the age
of 26.
Ross was converted in Mt.
Zion church at the age of 16, his conversion being very clear and
bright. He attended the young men's prayer meeting at the same
church under the leadership of Mr. Elias Hyde, and was also a
regular attendant at Tyrrell Baptist Church.
When asked by those
attending him if he was trusting in Jesus, he answered
"Yes" and a little later he said to his mother "I
feel good" and again he exclaimed "I feel happy, Jesus
is with me." He passed away very easy, death being caused by
pneumonia.
Deceased was a great lover
of music, and often his neighbors have been cheered by the sound
of his cornet or violin as it was wafted to them on the evening
breeze.
He leaves a mother and two
brothers to mourn their loss, his father and sister predeceasing
him to a Better Land by some four years.
The many beautiful flowers
that were placed on the casket, and the large number of friends
who followed him to the grave, bore evidence of the high esteem in
which the departed was held.
He was a member of Tyrrell
Lodges C.O.F. and O.C.H.C., holding high offices in each lodge.
