The death
occurred in the Toronto General Hospital on Monday, 16 Sep 1940 of Oscar
L. Sovereign of Huttonville, following a long illness.
Mr. Sovereign was
very well known in this district, being born at Windham Centre, a son of
the late Mr. and Mrs. William Sovereign. He lived there until about
1919, when he moved to Mildmay, later to Huttonville.
He married Miss
Emma Granger of Waterford, who survives, along with two sons, Arthur and
Herbert of Toronto, and two daughters, Misses Edith of Toronto and
Laurel at home.
The funeral
service was held from his late residence at Huttonville on Wednesday
afternoon, at 1.30, thence to Greenwood Cemetery, Waterford, where a
short service was conducted by his nephew, Rev. W. K. Roberts of
First Baptist Church, Brantford, followed by interment in the family
plot there.
