[The Welland Tribune and Telegraph, 25 January 1921]
A life-long resident of Welland passed away at the Welland Hospital Saturday last in the person of Mr. James Anderson in the 53rd year of his age. The deceased was born at the Junction (now Welland South) and where he has continued to reside until his death. Mr. Anderson had not been in the best of health for some time, but was around the city until last Tuesday when he was taken to the Welland Hospital for an operation of the stomach. The operation was performed on the Wednesday following, and hopes were entertained for his recovery, but his constitution was such that it could not stand the shock, and he past away on Saturday last. He was the son of Mr. James Anderson, Sr., who was in the employ of the M.C.R. at Tillsonburg for a number of years, but now residing with his daughter, Mrs. Leonard Mathews of Welland. Deceased mother died some ago. By his big heartedness and social position, the deceased made many friends by whom he will be greatly missed. He leaves to mourn a wife, father, two brothers, Fred of Buffalo and Joe of British Columbia and three sisters.
The funeral will be held on Tuesday January 25th, from his late home, 16 Seeley Street to Woodlawn cemetery.
