Tm.: death of Mrs. Hammond Johnston
was heard with profound regret through~
out our city. = For some years
past the had been a great sufferer, and
the many friends who frequently visited
her bedside would marvel at tile sweet,
gentle spirit, the unseltlsh disposition
and thcinterest she always took in the
`welfare of others. Mrs. Johnson wasa
_lady of rare culture, deep spiritua'ity
and a friend of unswerving loyalty. She
is gone but the memory of a jsainted life
will ever remain asa perpetual inspir-
ation to those that are left. Mrs.
Johnson was a daughter of the late
Thomas Dawson and widow of the late
Dr. Hammond Johnston at one time the
most prominent physician in this city.
There now survive her, one son, Dr.
Henry D. Johnson, two daughters,
Frances and Mary and one~b1-other, Dr.
Thomas Dawson" all of Charlottetown.
To the bereaved relatives the sincere
‘sympathy of the community will by
