The late Mr. Bristow was born at Rob Koy in the County of Grey on .September 12, 1866. There he lived until the year I'JOO, when he moved with his family to u farm near Okofoks, Alta., where he farmed foi ten years. He then was in the posi' tion where he secured more lan<l in order to settle his family near him. He was one of the first to take land in the Frog Lake district, where he lived continuously until death came. He was a hard working man and en- countered the hardships usually met with in pioneering irt a new country. He had been very successful and had built up a beautiful home and home surroundings, of which he was always fond. His sons and daugh- ters, who are married, ar^ settled on farms of their own quite near the parental home. This was his ambi- I tion and just at the time when he j could take life easier apd enjoy the ' fruit of his labors, the dread disease of cancer of the liver set in. He was a faithful friend and neighbor and his death will be deeply mourned by all who knew him. ',1 Landau - $10.45 All Price* F.O.B. Oshawa. Taxes iind Freight Extra D.
