Fonthill News

[Welland Tribune, 12 March 1897]

We regret to record this week the demise of Victoria, wife of Oscar Burch, who sank to her rest on Tuesday morning, 9th inst. Deceased had been on the decline for the past two years with consumption. Everything possible was resorted to to keep the formidable foe at bay, but the destroyer finally predominated. Mrs. Burch bore the lingering illness with remarkable patience. She leaves a husband and an only child to mourn her departure. The funeral took place on Thursday, services conducted by the pastor Rev. St. Dalmas.
