John Allen, who came from New Jersey to Nova Scotia many years ago with the Empire Royalists and settled, afterwards coming to Kingsclear. His mother before marriage was Miss Lydia Vail. Deceased was twice married, his first wife being Miss Alida Frink, who passed away some years ago, and his second wife, Miss Isabelle McKay, who also predeceased him. He is survived by three sons, William deLancy and John B., at home, and Frank P.; four daughters, Miss Maude St. J. Allen, at home; Mrs John D. Churchill, Mrs W. Ward Earl and Miss Mary deLancy Allen of Boston, now at home; and one sister, Miss Sarah Allen, of this city.

The funeral will take place fom his late home tomorrow afternoon, with service at St. Peter's church, Springhill, at 2:30 o'clock by Rev. W. J. Wilkinson, and interment in the churchyard adjoining.
