Obituary for James Rogers " . . . the late James Rogers, of Eversley, Township of King, who departed this life on the 5th instant., in the 57th year of his age, the circumstances attending this sad and painful bereavement are peculiarly distressing to relatives and more intimate friends. A short time ago, a son of some 29 years, was brought home from the city suffering from malignant typhoid, and not long after succumbed to the disease. The contagion seized a daughter of about 21 years, and she, too fell a victim, and now the father of the family has been called away, while the mother and another daughter are seriously ill with the same disease - the affliction being doubly painful in consequence of the irreparable loss they have sustained."
