PIONEER SETTLER DIES AT VANCOUVER

Mrs. Charles Bambrick, one of the

original settlers in the Big Creek

district. whose son Walter still re-
sides here, passed away in Vancou-

ver January Ist at the age of 72.

Mrs. Bambrick was a pioneer resi-
dent, coming to Big Creek with her
husband about 1895. After her hus-

band’s death in 1932 she moved to

Williams Lake and later to Vancou-

ver where she resided until the time
of her death.

Mrs. Bambrick leaves a large fam-

ily to Mourn her passing. Six daugh-
ters, Mrs. C. Paxton, Prince George;
Mrs. H. Wales, Revelstoke; Mrs.
G. Jakel, Clinton; Mrs. G. Ste-
vens, Bralorne; Mrs. E. Passenger,
Squamish, and Mrs. D. Curtis, Van-
couver: four sons, Walter, Big
Creek; Eddy and Arthur, Williams
Lake and Frank, Vancouver; twenty-
three grandchildren and. three great
grandchildren.

IT WAS with deep regret also that
we learned of the bereavement in
Murray Taylor's family. Death came
to his father, Robert Taylor, on New
Year's Eve, at his aome in Bramp-
ton, Ont.

DUE TO recurring nosebleeds,

‘Norah Wilson was obliged to spend

Christmas Day away from her home
and family. After a few days in Wil-
liams Lake Hospital her husband
took her on to Kamloops to consult
a nose specialist.

A WELL has been dug at the
school. Wm. Maxted completed the
job Saturday.

LARRY HENRY suffered a loss of
blood Friday when he stumbled
down the stairs, cutting his head on
the sharp edge of a board. His par-
ents took him to the Outpost Hos-
pital at Alexis Creek, and were ad-
vised by the nurse there to go on to
Williams Lake for a doctor’s examin-
ation. Nothing was seriously wrong,
however, and Larry is feeling as
lively as ever.

ROSALIE CHURCH left for school
at Three Hills, Alberta, again Decem-
ber 26, after spending Christmas at
home with her family and friends.
Johnny was also home for the Yule-
tide, leaving again for Penticton on
January 2.

A PARTY to usher in the New
Year was put on at Breckness Ranch
by Phyllis and Bruce Watt.

WALT BLISS returned home on
Wednesday after riding with Duane
Witte through the week.

MISS GWEN FLETCHER arrived
back to take over her duties here on
January 4. Too late to catch the
stage or visiting residents, Miss finishing touches at a-wax works tact
for sale.

Fletcher was obliged to hire a taxi
to make the trip from Williams Lake, |) ————————__—__
