PORT DOVER
While on a visit to
relatives at Cayuga, Frank Sweetmore contracted influenza, from
the effect of which he died Saturday morning, 16 May 1919, in his
36th year.
The body was brought to
this village Monday morning and was met at the station by a large
number of his former brethren of Norfolk Lodge, No. 225, I.O.O.F.,
who conducted the impressive funeral service of the order at the
Port Dover cemetery, where internment was made.
Deceased leaves his wife,
two daughters and one son to mourn his untimely passing away. We
understand that the older girl and the son are seriously ill owing
to having contracted influenza.
Mr. Sweetmore had been a
resident of the village for several years and was universally
liked for his genial good nature.
