Funeral
Mrs. Lorinda Crooks
CODDLES HARBOUR, June 4 -
Our community was again saddened on Friday
June 23,
when Mrs. Lorinda (Conrad) Crooks, widow of the late John H.
Crooks,
passed peacefully away in her sleep.
She was 79 years old on June 6,
and was born at Voglar's Cove, Lunenburg

Emma, Mrs. J. Gillis, East Bay; also a
large number of nephews and nieces.

Rindie, as she was so often called,
was of a pleasant disposition, and
had a jolly word for everyone.

at 2 p.m., service
conducted by Rev. John Benson, assisted by Rev. Robert Currie.
Hymns sung were "Just Inside the Eastern Gate"
and "Out of My Bondage."
