  	Hourigan. Died, at the residence of her uncle, Mr. Thomas Moran, Huntley, at 3:00 on Saturday, 24th March, Mary Ann (Hourigan), eldest daughter of Mr. Thomas Hourigan. The deceased was a most affectionate and exemplary young girl, dearly beloved by all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance. Gentle kindness and a high sense of morality were among the many good qualities which characterized her during her life and a disposition so entertaining and cheerful as to endear her to every one of her circle of friends and relations. Called away so suddenly at the early age of 24 while yet in the morning of her life, she will be greatly missed from the circle. Up to her last hour she evinced a perfect reconciliation and Christian resignation to Divine Will and the meekness and fortitude with which she bore her painful malady were highly edifying. The funeral, which took place on the 27th inst., was one of the largest ever seen in the township. Upwards of 100 sleighs followed the remains to their last resting place. She was buried in the cemetery of the R.C. Church at March. The Rev. Father Molloy, of Ottawa, officiated at the church ceremonies.
