Description : The passing of Mrs. David Mundy following a comparatively brief illness came as a shock to her family and friends. Mrs. Mundy first went to Newmarket hospital for observation and care and after two weeks in that institution was moved to Western Hospital, Toronto, for treatment. She was in the latter hospital only one week before her death on Sunday, March 23. The late Mrs. Mundy, whose maiden name was May Davison, was born in St. Louis, Michigan, 62 years ago but came to Holland Landing with her parents when a young child, where she attended school. In November 1908, she married David Mundy in Bradford and had since resided in this area. In St. Paul's Church, Coulson's Hill, Mrs. Mundy was a wonderful worker. In the W.A. she served untiringly as Dorcas secretary. She had also been a member of the executive branch and a faithful branch member with Coulson's Hill W.I. Since Mr. and Mrs. Mundy retired to Bradford a few years ago she attended Trinity Anglican Church and joined Bradford W.I. and Bradford Knitting Club. Of a kind and friendly disposition, Mrs. Mundy had many friends who sincerely mourn her death and sympathize with her husband and members of her family, namely, daughter, Mrs. Jack Lenton (Mildred) of Tecumseth Township; sons, Clarence of Newmarket, Norman at home, and Walter of Bradford; her father, Charles Davison of Holland Landing; and two sisters, Mrs. George Mundy of Keswick and Mrs. Duncan Bell of Holland Landing. The funeral was held on Wednesday from the T. Kilkenny and Son Funeral Home with interment in Mount Pleasant Cemetery. Rev. H.G. Blake conducted the services. The pallbearers were her three sons, Clarence, Norman and Walter Mundy; her son-in-law, Jack Lenton; and two nephews, Charlie Mundy and William Bell.

Description : The passing of Mrs. Isaac Coburn in Newmarket Hospital on Tuesday, May 24, came as a great shock to her family and friends. Nearly four weeks before her death she suffered a heart seizure but it was not regarded as very severe. A week later she was moved to the hospital where she appeared to be making satisfactory progress. On the morning of May 24 she had just been made ready to have her breakfast when she passed away. A daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Hosea Wilkinson of Bradford, Mrs. Coburn, whose maiden name was Grace Ethlyne Wilkinson, had resided here for all but a few years of her life. She attended Bradford schools and being exceptionally gifted in needlework she was a milliner and dressmaker before her marriage in Toronto on January 31, 1912, to Isaac Edgar Coburn. A few years later Mr. and Mrs. Coburn returned to Bradford where they established their home. Nearly eight years ago Mr. Coburn passed away and Mrs. Coburn remained in her home with her daughter, Miss Gwenyth. Mrs. Coburn was never idle, a quality to which her home and its surroundings gave evidence. In addition to being a homemaker she was an energetic worker in the Woman's Auxiliary of her church, Bradford Presbyterian, and in Bradford Women's Institute. Mrs. Coburn is survived by two daughters, Audrey (Mrs. Ken Keith) of Bracebridge and Miss Gwenyth at home, and one son Ross, of Dorset, Ontario. Three brothers also survive, namely Arthur, Earle and Chester Wilkinson of Toronto. A fourth brother, Fred Wilkinson, predeceased her. The funeral was held from her late residence on Thursday, May 26. The services were taken by the former minister of Bradford Presbyterian Church of which she was a member, Rev. Mr. McLarnon of Toronto. Interment was in Mount Pleasant Cemetery. The pallbearers were Messrs. Robt. McMaster, R. Magloughlen, Herb. Taylor, Harvey Curry, Lorne Fines and Percy Stephenson.
