He left immediately and arrived in time to see her before she passed away. Mrs. Fitzjohn has been in failing health for some time, but able to attend to her work about the house. She very much desired to attend the camp meeting at Manton believing that she would derive benefit by the change. The Master called for her and she passed peacefully away Sunday about noon with her husband and sister, Mrs. Alice Ralph; her pastor, Rev. J. Fred Iulg, and many sympathizing friends at her bedside. Her remains were brought here Monday and the funeral was held at the Free Methodist church Tuesday at 2:30 o’clock, attended by a very large number of old neighbors and friends, and the wealth of flowers and floral offerings attested the respect and sympathy of many who shared in the bereavement of the sadly stricken husband and children. Rev. Iulg was assisted in the service by her former pastor, Rev. Hudnutt, of Sault Ste. Marie. Mrs. Fitzjohn leaves, beside her husband, two sons and a daughter, Leonard and Merrill, and Beulah, who are now bereft of a loving wife and mother’s care. The burial took place in the cemetery at Green’s church.
