The TALES you probably never heard about

WALTER CORRY

Niagara Falls Village

[Welland Tribune, 4 February 1898]

Walter Corry, whose death occurred at Satmford on Friday last, was the victim of congestion of the brain. His illness was very short, congestion of the lungs being quickly followed by that of the brain. All was done for the severe case that was humanly possible, and Drs. Dee and Emes were unflagging in their efforts to save the patient, but without avail. Deceased was born in Stamford and was well known and higly esteemed. He leaves a young widow, (sister of James E. Jones) and a daughter about twelve years of age to mourn the death of an affectionate husband and father. The funeral took place from his late residence on Monday afternoon, Rev. Canon Bull officiating, a large number of relatives and sympathizing friends attending. The TRIBUNE joins in the expressions of condolence for the sorrowing widow and daughter.
