    Oliver Rutherford

    Harvey, Oct 17 -- There occurred at Greenville Junction, Me. the death of Oliver J. Rutherford, oldest son of James and Sarah Rutherford, of Tweedside, on Monday, the 9th October, aged 33 years. Only two weeks ago, he visited his parents, seemingly in fairly good health.   Returning to his work, he was stricken with tumour of the brain, and died very suddenly.   The sad news of his death has cast a gloom over this place, where he was well and favourably known.   He leaves a widow, who was formerly Miss Horsman, of Fredericton, and also a little daughter, four years old.   For the last five years he had been employed by the B. & A. Railway Company as car inspector and round house foreman, a position he filled with credit to himself and to the entire satisfaction of the railroad company.   He was a member of the I.O.O.F., also of the Encampment.   He was a young man of sterling character, loved and respected by all who knew him.

 

    Deceased leaves to mourn their loss a sorrowing widow and little daughter, his parents, four brothers and two sisters.   The brothers are Thomas, Norman, Cecil, and Vincent; the sisters are Mrs Wilbert Swan and Isabel at home.

 

    Much sympathy is expressed for the widow and relatives of the deceased, this being the first break of the family.   The remains were brought to his former home in Tweedside, from where the funeral was held on Thursday, Oct 12 and was very largely attended.   The funeral service was conducted by the Rev. J. F. MacKay, interment being made in the Harvey Cemetery.

 

    He married Della Horsman, 9 Sep 1908 in Sunbury Co., NB . Born 26 Oct 1888. Died Sep 1974.

    They had the following children:

  201   i.   Dorothy R. Rutherford
