The Garden Island, Lihue, Kauai, Tues., 7-11-1911
LINDSAY, ISABEL nee BONNAR
"MOTHER" LINDSAY SUCCUMBS TO PNEUMONIA - PASSED PEACEFULLY AWAY SURROUNDED BY 
LOVING FRIENDS AND RELATIVES - FUNERAL FRIDAY.  The death of Mrs. Alexander 
Lindsay, better known as "Mother" Lindsay, occurred at her home in Waimea at 11 
o'clock last night, being caused from pneumonia. She was attended by her 
physician, Dr. Sandow, and as many of her children as was possible gather at her 
bedside. She was 75 years of age. Mrs. Lindsay was born in Dunnesmire, Scotland, 
her maiden name being Isabel Bonnar. She was married in Scotland and came to these 
islands about 30 years ago, with the exception of 8 years she had lived in Moloaa. 
"Mother" Lindsay's death came as a grievous surprise to her many friends and 
acquaintances. Though she had been ailing some time previous to her death, seeming 
improvement misled many who had expected her ultimate recovery. It is not often 
that a community loses a woman of "Mother" Lindsay's rare character and ability 
which combined the good Scotch qualities of thrift and energy with Stanch loyalty 
and high moral integrity. Her large family of girls and boys are a living 
testimonial to the noble qualities of their parents. A husband, seven children, 
namely Mr. Adam Lindsay of Hilo, Andrew B. Lindsay of Honolulu, Mrs. Ernest Flohr 
of Germany, Mrs. H. P. Faye of Waimea, now in Norway, Honorable Alexander Lindsay 
Junior, Mrs. John Hogg of Lihue, and Mrs. George Ewart of Makaweli; and 28 
grandchildren, survives. The body will be embalmed and held until the arrival of 
her children from Hawaii. The funeral will be held on Friday.
