MRS. A. MATHER ASQUITH.
ASQUITH.— The death of Mrs. Andrew Mather removed from the district one of Its oldest and most highly respected pioneers. The service held In the United Church was conducted by Rev. R.,W, Reid, assisted by Rev. J. Baxter of the Baptist Church. Burial was made in the Asquith Cemetery beside her late husband, who died in 1927.
Jennet Ainslie was born in Peterboro, Ontario, on February 25, 1855, where later she married Andrew Mather. After a few years they moved west to homestead eight miles north of the town of Morden, Manitoba. In 1904 they settled on a farm near Asquith, being among the first settlers to rush ahead of the railroad, which had at that time reached Saskatoon. Mr. Mather had purchased C.P.R. land on which the town of Asquith now stands. When the railroad came through they moved into town and opened up a general store which they operated until 1916.
The late Mrs. Mather had given many years of service in church and community work, and had continued to attend service until failing health forced her to give up her long association as a teacher in the Sunday school. She was a life member of the women's missionary society, a charter member of the Laura Secord Chapter I.O.D.E., and had held the office of standard bearer since the organization of the chapter.
