Knowlesville (Carleton Co.) Dec. 3 - Charles CRAWFORD, son of the first settlers of the parish, died at his home in Argyle, Friday, 23rd, at the advanced age of 84 years. Mr. Crawford came to this parish in the year 1861 from South Richmond, the year after the land was laid our for settlement. There were no roads except sled roads when he first came here. Supplies were carried a part of the way on horse back or men's shoulders. He was not a man to get discouraged at trifles. He was a hard working man with more than average intelligence. He read a great deal and remembered what he read. He lived to see a large farm cleared, one of the largest in the parish. He leaves a wife and one son, ex-councillor John CRAWFORD and two daughters.
