HANNAH KELLY PRICE
[People’s Press. 17 April 1900]
Hannah Kelly, widow of the late Peter B. Price, died at her late residence in Thorold township, just west of the town of Welland, on Tuesday last, April 10th, at the advanced age of 83 years. Her husband preceded her in death by about ten years. Deceased was the daughter of Isaac and Mathilda Kelly of Beaverdams, of a well-known pioneer family of that section. She was a sister of late John Kelly of Thorold township and also had two sisters, the younger of whom, Miss E.J. Kelly, still survives her, and has given her every attention the past year, during which she has been an invalid. Though often very weak, she had never been confined to her bed, and at last passed away unexpectedly.
Mrs. Price was the second wife of her late husband, and having no children of her own, gave her whole attention to taking care of the three step-children, especially the youngest, Emma C. Price, who was with her in her late illness and to whom she was a most devoted mother. The other children are married, the daughter, Mrs. A.W. Augustine, residing in Arkona, Middlesex county, and the son, A. Price, in Messina, California.
For sixty years Mrs. Price had been a faithful and zealous member of the Methodist church, enjoying the respect and esteem of all who knew her, and the deep affection of a large circle of more intimate friends. “Blessed are the dead who die in the Lord.”
