Thomas Charlton and his wife Leita Chariton, the vietims of the tragic shooting and suicide which oc- curred at Zealand, in Oso Township, on Friday morning last, were both buried from the home of Mr, and Mrs. Robert Hawlsy, the parents of Mrs. Charlton, in the village of Shar- bot Lake. The funeral of the hus and of the wife on Sunday morning. Both funerals were conducted by Rev. R. 8. Bagleson, and both were very largely. attended. Interment of the body of Thomas Charlton was made at the Chariton family plot in the cemetery at Zealand while Leita Chariton was buried at Oconto. The service held on Saturday at- ternoon was a very brief one, as the relativés and immediate friends ot the deceased man were so bowed down with sorrow by the tragic af- fair that Rev. R. S. Eagleson of the Sharbot Lake United Church did not think it wise to dwell unduly on what bad happened. A hymn or two were sung, and the minister read portions from Scripture and closed with a few words of comfort to the friends and relatives. Mrs. Butteril of Smith's Falls, a sister of the deceased, was the chief mourner. "God is our refuge and strength," was the text chosen by Rev. Mr. Ea- gleson for his remarks at the funeral of Mrs. Charlton. His entire dis- course was dirécted toward trying to alleviate the suffering of the parents, brothers and sisters and particularly of the orphaned children. "The tragic circumstances which have cal us together to-day have shaken Ahe\ whole community and awakenséd in all our hearts feelings of sorrow and deepest sympathy for the families and friends who have been 80 sorely and suddenly hereav- ed" sald the minister speaking on Saturday afternoon at Thomas Charlton's funeral. "Mers human words are empty and entirely in. adequate therefore in speaking words of comfort to the sorrowing. I point you to One who is above us who alone can comfort and sustain.' Speaking on Sunday 'at Mrs. Charlton's funeral Rev. Mr. Eagle- son said it was hard to concentrate the mind on any iother subject than the one which for the past two days had filled the hearts of evefyone present. For the comfort of the bereaved he referred to that. por- tion of the scripture found in Psalm 486, verse 1: "God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble." Inquest Is Held. At the request of Crown-Attorney Rigney an inquest into the shooting Of Mrs. Leita Chariton and the pois- oning of Thomas Chariton, her hus- band)-which occurred at their home at Zealand in Oso Township, was held in Sharbot Lake on Saturday night. A considerrable number of witnesses were heard and after deli- beration the jury brought in two ver- diets. In the case of Leita Charlton, the verdict was death from gunshot wounds inflicted by a gun in the bands of Thomas Charlton. The ver- dict in the case of Thomas Charlton was suicide from strychnine polson- ing. A large crowd attended the in- quest and listened with close atten- tion to the evidences as related by Maude, the little-ten-year-old daugh- ter, who witnessed the shooting, and the others who 'testified. | | | | band was held on Saturday afternoon |' l CATARAQUT CEMETERY Kingston Oddfellows Hold an! Impressive Ceremony on Sunday Morning. 2 ---- The purpose of this service is not that we can do any good to the dead but to stimulate the Hving," said Mr. R. J. Dia¢k, PG. speaking at the memorial. service held. by the sub- ordinate lodges of Kingston of -the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, at Cataraqui metery on Sunday morning, w potted plants were placed on the graves of nearly 300 Odd Fellows and Rebekahs. _ Delegations from 'each. of the Kingston lodges and the general pub- lc "attended the service which was carried out with reverence and sim- plicity, the Canton parading in full regalia. Brig.-Gen. A. E. Ross, Pro- vincial Grand Master of the order, addressed the assembly and spoke of man's position in the universe; man's function; and the relation of the order of Odd Fellows to both his position and function. The invocation was pronounced by Mr. William Harkness, P.G., and the service concluded with a prayer by the chaplain, Mr. W. Harkness, P.G. A quartette composed of Messrs, W. Eva, T. Donnelly, J, Saunders and W. J. Christmas sang a couple of selections and led in the hymns. Mr. R. J. Diack, P.G., acted as; chair- man, The chairman in his remarks at the opening of the service, spoke par- ticularly of the aims and aspirations of men in this life. Some were mere- ly working for wages and existing while othérs had a higher purpose and labored for the love of their work. Young people had high am- ions but all were not ipermitted to attain to greatness and emminence. Those who did reach the high places in life howevér were only enabled to do so through the combined efforts of many other people in humble cir- cumstances. With these thoughts in mind the speaker's message was that each one should live with friendship toward their fellowman, and he adjured his listeners not to put off doing a good deed, for the opportunity might never be theirs again. In speak- ing later at the Odd Fellows plot Mr, Diack referred to the project to build & monument there at some future date, in memory of all buried there, and also of the Odd Fellows buried in other parts of the cemetery and of the members of the Kingston lodges who died overseas. About twenty per cent. of the cost of the monument had already been raised, he said. Grand Master Dr. Ross referred to the fact that members of the Odd Fellows' Order all over Ontario ware al the same hour carrying out the decoration ceremony. He then dealt with his subject under the three headings mentioned in a previous paragraph. ' Man, thé highest type of life In the world, only had to examine his ows hand with its intrigue system of muscles, nerves and blood vessels to conceive that there must be a Divine and intelligent Crestor, sald the speaker. No man could be an sgnos- tic or.an atheist and still subscribe to the beliefs of Odd Fellows' Order. As to the function of man, he is not an individual but his whotk lite i= bound up with the lives of his'fel- lowmen. That was the teaching of the order, said Dr, Ross. The order was teaching men these truths in its own way. It eight be a sentimental way but it has produced great _re- sults. The people who Were being fonored by the memorial service had all been citizens of the highest re- spectability.
