Amanda Bertha Collins (Felker) d. 1911.

. Obituary 19 Aug, 1911 Guelph Weekly Newspaper:
THE LATE MRS COLLINS, the many friends of Mrs. Amanda Felker, wife of Mr. Joseph B Collins, were shocked last evening to hear of her death which occurred at the General Hospital, following doubt 6 weeks' serious illness. The late Mrs. Collins was the youngest daughter of the late Wm. Felker, one of the pioneers of Garafraxa & come to Guelph with her parents about 28 year ago [1883]. Twenty-two years ago last April she married Mr. Collins who is one of the oldest employees of the Raymond Company. In addition to her husband 4 children survive. The are Misses Viola & Jessie & masters Frank & Roswell, all at home. 3 sister & 1 brother also survive. They are Mrs. Dobbin of Minneapolis; Mrs. Messner of Morre, Montana; Mrs. E L Lindsay, of Duluth, Minn; & Mr. Wm. Felker, located in Western Canada.

Deceased had been a consistent member of the Norfolk St. Methodist Church for many years, but owing to ill health she was prevented fro taking an active part in the church work for the past few years. She was a devoted wife & mother & her interests were centred chiefly in her home. There her loss will be most keenly felt, although there is also a large circle of friends who feel that they have also sustained a personal loss in her removal from their midst.

Owing to the death of Mrs. Collins, the GMS Band, of which Mr. Collins is secretary & manger, held no concert last evening. The members of the Woodmen of the World of which he is also secretary, dispensed with business other than arranging for a delegation to attend the funeral, which will be held on Monday afternoon, there being a private service at the residence, 59 Strange Street at 3:30 & interment taking place at the Union Cemetery at 4 o'clock. - - -

The bearer Mr. Valentine Harden, a farmer in New Brunswick, has been induced from the encouragement given to his neighbors, Ness. Thomson & Jarvis, to visit this Country with a view of settling in it.
May I therefore beg leave through you to state to His Excellency Lt. Governor Gore, that I know Mr. Harden from his infancy till I removed from NB to this Country, that he always bore the character of a loyal, industrious & peaceable subject.
His father was employed in carrying dispatches & on several hazardous expeditions during the Revolutionary War, he removed with his family to NB at the peace, whence the bearer has resided ever since. His object is not to obtain an immediate grant of waste l&, but to het some assurance that he would meet with encouragement from the Governor & Council should he return to this Country as an actual settler. I have the honor to be Sir, your most obedient numb. servant, Jos. Ryerson, to Wm. Halton, York.
