The TALES you probably never heard about

WILLIAM CHAMBERS

[Welland Tribune, 22 April 1892]

A FATAL STROKE- Mr. William Chambers, an old and respected citizen who lived with Mr. Thos. Tuckey, died at one o’clock on Sunday morning last from paralysis. Mr. Chambers suffered the first stroke on Friday morning last-a very severe one-which was followed by another on Saturday. From that moment there was no hope, and life ebbed away slowly until Sunday morning, when death came to his relief. Deceased was a widower, his wife having died very suddenly some years ago. A son and daughter in Saginaw, Mich., and a son at Port Colborne, are the only members of the family left to mourn. The funeral took place on Tuesday; services at Holy Trinity by Rev. G. Johnstone, and interment at Doan’s Ridge.

Died: 17 April 1892
