Chatham (North. Co.) - Our townsman A.J. LOGGIE, having been in failing health for some months, had been advised to go to the sunny south in order that he might regain his health. He left here last October and for a time after he arrived at Los Angeles, reports were of a cheerful nature. However, our town was much surprised March 4th when a telegram was received that he had died at the residence of his brother, James LOGGIE, San Francisco, California., Miss Nellie LOGGIE, his sister, also being at his bedside when he passed away. His body was embalmed in a beautiful casket with Masonic trimmings and forwarded to his family by express. It arrived at Chatham Tuesday morn. T.G. LOGGIE, Fredericton, brother of the deceased, met the remains and accompanied them to Chatham. The funeral took place the same afternoon at 4 o'clock under the direction of the Miramichi Lodge of Free Masons of which deceased was a past master. The procession was headed by the band of the 73rd battalion. The services at the house were conducted by Rev. Jos. McCoy, Presbyterian and Rev. Thos. Marshall, Methodist. Mr. Loggie was the head of a large dry goods establishment known as A.J. Loggie & Co.
