The Belding Banner, Thursday, August 28, 1913


James Green was born in the village of Shorthampton, on the Lord Churchill 
estate, in Oxfordshire, England, on September 1st, 1831, died August 17th, 
1913, at the age of 81 years 11 months and 17 days.  He came to Canada in 
April 1857, where he was united in marriage to Maryam Sunley, in Guelph, in 
1861.  Seven children were born to this union.  Ada Calkins, of Belding, 
Joslin W. Green, of Chesley, Ontario; Reginald N. Green, Rachel E. Green, of 
Belding; Maggie A. Waldron, of Alberta, Canada; Charles J. Green of South 
Hampton, Ontario; and Joseph T. Green.  Reginald N. passed away August 28th, 
1905; Joseph T. passed away March 17th, 1900 and Maryam, his wife, passed away 
February 14th, 1901.  Since the loss of his wife, he has resided with his 
daughters in Belding.  He leaves to mourn his loss, three daughters, two sons 
and five grandchildren.

He was a member of the Church of England, until his removal from there and 
afterwards united with the same church in Canada.  He was stricken with 
paralysis, Saturday, August 2nd, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Ada 
Calkins, where he has lived for several years and where he passed away.

We marked the patience with which he bore his last sad hours of pain.  And 
though our hearts seem breaking now, we could not wish him back again.  Oh no, 
we could not, would not, ask Thee, Lord to give him back again.
