    . 1894 Obituary
    Another pioneer has gone to his reward in the person of the late John Willson who died last Tuesday in his 90th year, at the homestead on Lot 25, in the 3rd Con. of the Township of Whitchurch.
    Deceased has been long & favorably known in this town & neighbourhood, having lived on the farm where he died for over 80 years. He was the last of the family of 11 children who, with their parents, moved to Canada from the Province of New Brunswick in the year 1811 & all of whom reached a ripe old age, one sister being over 100 years at the time of her demise.
    Our friend not only lived, but helped to build up & make out of the wilderness, homes famed for their hospitality & comfort.
    He was ever ready to help the needy & aid the afflicted. He leaves many friends & relatives, besides a family of 7 children, 3 sons & 4 daughters, to mourn his departure.
    For some time he had been afflicted with cancer, & although all was done that tender nursing & loving care could do to relieve his suffering, now his patient spirit has gone to meet with loved ones in that brighter & better sphere where pain & sickness can never mar the joys of a heavenly home. The funeral service, which was largely attended, took place at his late residence yesterday & the remains placed in the family plot in the Newmarket Cemetery.

    SUDDEN DEATH - A very sudden death took place in Aurora on the night of the 28th last, Mr. Moses Willson, a retired gentleman, who has been living alone for some time past, was found dead in his house on Wednesday. Dr. Hillary, as Coroner, was notified; but concluding death had been caused by apoplexy, did not consider an inquest necessary.

    . 1902 Jan 31, 50 Years Ago
    Moses Wilson had a general store & kept a post office called Pine Orchard, over in the corner of the 6th Concession. Moses Wilson was sometimes odd in his ways, & at one time, when advertising his wares in the "Era" told the people he "was not Moses in the bullrushes; but Moses of Pine Orchard." He was a great talker, & his store served as a convenient rendezvous for the neighbours to assemble for local gossip, discuss politics, or express fee opinions respecting the doings of the municipal council.

Indian who might pass & by chance find himself in a country section to his state is new bought under an excellent state of cultivation & a beautiful sample of wheat raised thereon & from its height? & confluence appearance will command 5¢ more per bushel than anything enters Toronto Marsh?
    From 15 to 25 is very value for its lumber than any other thing else. Its soil being light & sandy the timber hey mostly piece.
    From 25 to 35 is entered broken by swamps & creeks a middling soil but rather high for sloped produce that being fall but a small produce to the acre.

    Biography
    . Lardner Bostwick was born in Toronto, Ont., June 20, 1815, & was married March 6, 1843, to Eliza Kennedy. They had 4 children, 2 of whom are now living, Mrs. F. G. O'Brien of Minneapolis, & Mrs. H. A. Nott of Chicago.

    . Judge Bostwick died April 13, 1897, age 82 years, leaving a wife, the 2 daughters above mentioned, also a grandson, Edward J. O'Brien, a granddaughter, Mrs. W. O. Wolf, daughter of Mrs. Nott.

    . 1843 judge Bostwick moved from Toronto to Chicago, & from thence to St. Anthony Falls in 1850.

    He served his first term as justice of the peace in 1852. He was also the fourth judge of probate of Hennepin County; also court commissioner. He served as assessor of internal revenue from 1862 to 1866.

    Judge Wm. Lochren, in an article some years ago, on reminiscences of the first lawyers in Hennepin county, says- "Lardner Bostwick was a man of unusual mental power, good literary attainments, & knowledge of the law, & Withal of spotless integrity & commanding dignity in court, while very genial & companionable in his intercourse with members of the bar & others. He was a most efficient magistrate, at a time when, owing to the rough manners of a pioneer community, such a man was needed to preserve order & respect for law."

    . Obituary: The Late Joshua Wilson
    There passed away at the age of 85, on Thursday, Jan 13th, in the person of Mr. Joshua Wilson, one of the oldest & most widely known of the old time yeomen of Whitchurch Township, where he was widely known for 60 years as a progressive & successful farmer.
    Mr Wilson born on May 31st, 1831, was the second son of the late Joshua Wilson, Sr., one of a family of 11 children, who with their father, a New Brunswick, Shipbuilder, & their mother emigrated from that province to Whitchurch Township in 1811.
    Young Joshua, following the vocation of his father, & commencing on the homestead farm, ultimately added to his holding the 200 acres on the opposite side of Union Street, where he erected the substantial residence & farm buildings now owned by Mr. Mordecai Starr.
    Mr Wilson married in 1861 Miss Mary Walks of Whitby, who with his sons, James Albert of Toronto, Edgar of Roblin, Man., & Mrs. Ella M. McConochie of Aurora, survive to mourn the loss of a kind & ever thoughtful husband & parent. Another son, Arthur E., met with a tragic death by lightning in 1903, while working in a field on the homestead.
    Mr Wilson whilst never holding or aspiring to any municipal office, showed much interest in public affairs, & was one of the first members of the North York Liberal Association, in whose interest he was indefatigable worker, being always known as a staunch & unswerving Liberal & an untiring worker throughout each & every party campaign.
    Coming to reside in Newmarket some 12 years ago [1904], our aged & esteemed friend owes his death evidently to a fall on one of our icy pavements in December last.
    We have seldom had, as a resident, an citizen whose unostentatious liberality was more generally acknowledged than the late Mr. Wilson. Appeals for charity, education & Red Cross purposes always elicited from him instant & invariably a liberal contributor.
    The funeral service on Saturday afternoon last, from his late residence, Huron St., was conducted by his late Pastor, Rev. A. Young of the Friends Church & remains placed in Newmarket Cemetery.
