- ↑ Obit (5 Jun) The Late Mrs RUNCIMAN. The body of the late Mrs R., relict to the late Mr Thomas R., Drury, whose death, as observed in our obituary columns, of Thursday, took place the previous evening, at Marsh Meadows, near Hamilton, the residence of her son Capt James R, was taken to the Hamilton Junction Railway Station yesterday afternoon, and on to Drury by the mid-day train. After the procession reached the Railway Station, the coffin was placed in a van and the Rev Mr Evans, Presb. Minister, of Cambridge, offered up a prayer, impressing upon the company the need of preparation for death, and dismissed them with the Benediction. The funeral cortege was very largely attended, most of the leading settlers of the neighbourhood being present in carriages and on horseback. The principal stores, hotels, and places of business in Hamilton were closed while the funeral procession passed through the Borough. The Body will be interred this afternoon in the Drury Burial Ground. The lamented deceased lady was 81 years, and had been a resident in the Provincial District since the earliest days of the Colony. Verily of her it may be written that she has seen her children's children growing up around her, and has gained for herself a goodly heritage."
