OBITUARY - MR. JOHN B. DIAMOND - an old and well known native resident of South Fredericksburgh, died at his residence near Parma, on Thursday, Sept 26th in the 71st year of his age, after a long and very painful sickness. Mr. Diamond was of UE Loyalist descent, a son of the late Baltus Diamond, one of the pioneers of the township of Fredericksburgh. He was a life long resident of the township, and spent many of his earlier years as a successful school teacher. He settled on the farm where he died some years ago. He was a man of intelligence and took much interest in the early history of our Province. He was for some time a member of the Ontario Historical Society. He was also actively interested in public affairs and was for some years a member of the South Fredericksburgh Township Council; he was also at one time, a member of our County Council. In politics he was a member of the Conservative party, and was well informed in the public affairs of our country. He was for years a member of the Methodist church and died in the full enjoyment of a Christian`s assurance. He married Miss Henderson, of Kingston, many years ago, who survives him, with their children, Maria, Herbert and Edward to whom our deep sympathies are extended in this their hour of great bereavement. The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon last at the Sillsville Methodist church, of which he was a member and was conducted by the pastor, Rev. Mr. Allin. It was largely attended.
