| 4 | In the passing of Victor Begg on Sunday, May 18, this community loses one of its oldest and most highly respected residents, a man of many parts, who was a hearty supporter of every movement that had for its aim the betterment of humanity. Born on Jun 4, 1849, on the old Begg homestead, the lot just east of the home Mr. Begg built up for himself and family, he throughout his long life endeavored to set an example of integrity and industry to all. His interests were not confined to his own door, as he was a keen follower of the affairs of church and state, and gave freely of his time and money to the furtherance of any good cause. He was a staunch Presbyterian, and an elder of Knox Church, Moose Creek for forty years, in which he labored with all the ardor of an honest Scot, whose zeal and intelligence was far above the average. On February 14, 1872, he married Martha Blair, she passing away on October 6, 1924, and of this marriage was born four sons and four daughters, as follows, according to age - Wilbert, Cyril, Walter, Laura, (Mrs Boyd Johnston), Mary, Melvin, Nellie, (Mrs Murnie Empey), and Cecila. Of the above family three are deceased - Wilbert, Mary and Cecila. Cyril and Walter are interested in the firm of Charles Collins & Co., New York City; Laura is in the old Boyd Johnston home, Moose Creek; Nellie is at Finch, and Melvin on the homestead, where he is successfully carrying on the Ayrshire cattle breeding business, the foundation of which was so carefully built by his father. The funeral was conducted by Rev. Dr. McLean in the church, interment being made in Roxborough cemetery, a very large number of citizens being present to pay their last tribute of respect to a man who so long was identified with the life and welfare of the community. All that was noble in his life may we who come after endeavor to copy. | Begg, Alexander Victor (I547)
