August 15, 1852 ---- October 12, 1895

A very sad death was that of Mrs. John Lord which occurred Saturday evening from heart trouble, leaving a little child a trifle over three weeks old. The services were conducted by Rev. Martin at the church Monday at 11:00 a.m., and as one of the largest funerals ever held here. Mr. and Mrs. Lord were among the very earliest settlers here, consequently had a wide acquaintanceship. The sorely bereaved family has the deep sympathy of numerous friends. The remains were interred in the Belmond cemetery.

*****
The Democrat is exceedingly pained in being called upon to note the death of Mrs. John Lord, who resided some three miles southwest of Galt. The deceased after a severe illness of three months, succumbed to the monster, heart disease, and passed from this terrestrial sphere to her celestial home. The funeral ceremony took place at Galt, after which the remains were removed to Belmond for interment, Rev. Martin, of Rowan, officiating.
