Notes for RICHARD SHEATHER:
31st January 1902
Mr. Richard Sheather, who
had been ailing for the past few months, joined the silent majority
on
Tuesday. His remains were
interred in the Woodburn cemetery on Wednesday. At noon work
in
the quarry was suspended,
and all who could possibly get away joined the mournful
procession
to the
grave.
The steamer "Magnet" was
secured and conveyed a large number of mourners while several
rode or drove. It was truly a
sorrowing sight to view the funeral cortege passing through the
township
to the
wharf. A last glimpse at the coffin, and one could say unto himself, "A good
and true man
has
gone to his long rest." For the family sympathy is felt on all hands. The
deceased, through
sheer
hard work and untiring energy, forced his way through the world, but
hard luck overtakes
all of
us at one time or another.
The deceased had a big
heart, and after a reverse would make another effort and come to the
front. Men of that stamp have made
the country what it is at the present time, viz, prosperous.
Referring
to the
time when the deceased owned the steamer "Magnet," many and many a "hard
up" had cause for remembering him.
One had but to say "I am broke" and the reply, in hearty
tones, was,
"Jump
on board, old man - it's all right."
