Robert WINTERS died last eve. at his home on Brunswick Street in the 73rd year of his age. Deceased was born in Maugerville (Sunbury Co.) and came to Fredericton when he was 12 years old, and with the exception of about a year's absence in the States, he has lived here ever since. At an early age he learned the trade of cabinet making with the late Hugh WILEY, who ran a shop of Brunswick Street. He worked with Mr. Wiley for a number of years and finally went into partnership with Chas. H. BIRCH, now a piano maker in Boston, opening up a cabinet business on the corner of Westmorland and King Streets, where in addition to cabinet work they made banjos, violins, guitars and other musical instruments. After doing business at this stand about two years they were burned out and lost everything. After a year's absence Mr. Winters returned and began work as a painter, which business he followed up to the time of his death. Deceased was married twice, his first wife being a niece of the late Edwin BOOTH, the famous actor. By this marriage he had seven children, five of whom survive him, viz. Fred WINTERS, Harry WINTERS and Mrs. C.C. GILL of this city, Mrs. W.H. HARTFORD, Toronto and Mrs. ELLSWORTH, Auburn. One son and one daughter, Robert and Eva WINTERS, survive him by the second marriage. Until a few weeks ago he was able to walk about the streets and take moderate exercise. About a fortnight ago he took to his bed never to rise again. The funeral will take place tomorrow afternoon 2:30 from his residence on Brunswick Street to the Rural Cemetery. Undertakers Adams and Price will have charge of the arrangements.
