Whitman HAINES died yesterday at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Trueman BURTT, St. Mary's Ferry. The deceased was born at Keswick 27th May 1805 and therefore was in the 91st year of his age. He was the oldest of a family of eleven, six of whom are still living and the youngest of whom is 70 years of age. One of the sisters, Mrs. George BOONE, is now living with her son at Canterbury Station and is 87 years old. The other brothers and sisters are living in different parts of the States. Mr. Haines lumbered in Madawaska for a time and for a long time acted as surveyor to the prominent lumbermen of the province. He moved to St. Mary's 44 years ago and has lived there ever since. He was a bridge contractor for over 20 years and erected structures all over the province. For the past ten years he has been leading a quiet life on his farm in St. Mary's.
