CAN-ONT-WENTWORTH-L: Dr.James Ross M.D.,Surgeon Lt.Col.,Dundas,ON
The Hamilton Spectator, Wednesday May 22 1907


Dundas Loses a Valued Citizen: Dr. Ross Falls a Victim to Dread
Pneumonia with Complications: He was One of the Best Known Men of the
Valley City and Highly Respected.

Dundas, May 22. Dr. James Ross died at his home, King street, at 3:30
yesterday afternoon, after an illness of less than two weeks' duration,
death being due to pneumonia. Although deceased was known to be
critically ill for the past few days it was generally thought he would
rally when the critical time arrived, and his death was learned of with
profound regret, not only to the profession in this vicinity, but
generally throughout the country, where he had a large practice. Dr.
Ross was born in Dewittville, near Huntingdon, Quebec, in 1854, and was
in his 53rd year. He received his early education at Ormstown, Quebec,
and commenced his academic course at Huntingdon, where he won the medal
in 1874. After attending McGill for four years he graduated with honors
in 1878, taking the Prince of Wales medal for philosophy. He then
entered medicine in McGill, graduated in 1881, winning the Holmes medal
(the aggregate medal in medicine); that same year he won a place in the
Wimbledon team, and while in London he took his licentiate degree.
Returning home to Canada about Christmas of that year, he was advised by
Dr. Wm. Osler, regis prof., Oxford, who was then attending McGill, to go
to Dundas and take over the practice of Dr. Inksetter, who was then
located where Dr. Ross's residence and surgery is, and who was leaving
for the south. In 1881 deceased located in Dundas, where he has lived
for the past 26 years and built up a large practice. Notwithstanding
his strict attention to his profession, by his devotion to which he had
earned an enviable reputation, he was fond of outdoor amusements. As a
rifle shot he enjoyed a world-wide reputation, winning innumerable
prizes in competitions, as well as becoming eligible for positions from
time to time in the Bisley team. He was also surgeon lieutenant-colonel
77th regiment, as well as secretary of the rifle association, and was
one of the staff officials of the O.R.A. In curling circles deceased
was one of the most adept in this vicinity, and was known as a strong
competitor in many famous games. He was president of the local curling
club. His love for wholesome outdoor sports date back to his early
boyhood, when living at home on his father's farm, he won prizes in
plowing competitions in Chateauguay Co., Quebec. Dr. Ross married in
1884 Beatrice Dudgeon Graham, cousing of H. Graham, of the Montreal
Star, at Huntingdon, Quebec, who with her family of four mourn his loss
-- Lillian Isabella and Stanley Graham, both of whom are attending
McGill, and Beatric Mary and James Hargrave Drummond Ross, at home.
Three brothers and four sisters survive, viz., William on the homestead
in Dewittville, and Andrew, of Ormstown, Quebec, and Dr. J.J. Ross, of
Montreal; Mrs. David Pringle, Huntingdon; Mrs. Jas. Roy, Montreal; Mrs.
A.E. Smaill, Ottawa; and Miss Jennett Ross, Montreal. Deceased's father
died some few years ago, with the same ailment that carried off Dr.
Ross, but his mother, though in her 78th year, still lives and resides
in Quebec. Dr. Ross was chairman of the finance committee of the board
of education, where he always took an active part. On account of his
demise the program of sports which was arranged for Victoria day has
been indefinitely postponed. The funeral arrangements are being
completed and interment will take place Thursday afternoon, and will
likely be with military honors.


The Hamilton Spectator Saturday May 25 1907.

All the Honors for the Lost One: Impressive Military Funeral for
Lieut-Col Ross, of the 77th, Dundas: Many Hamilton Officers
Attended--Other News of the Valley City.

Dundas, May 25. The funeral of Dr. James Ross, surgeon
lieutenant-colonel of the Seventy-seventh regiment, took place with
military honors Thursday afternoon and was largely attended by the
military as well as a large number of civilians. The hour was set for
2:30, but owing to a delay in getting the gun carriage from the Hamilton
Field battery, which bore the remains from his residence on King street
to Grove cemetery it was about 3:15 before the procession started. The
procession reached from his late home to the corner of King and York
streets. The order was as follows: Firing party, consisting of seventy
men and officers of No. 1 company, 77th regiment and signal corps.
Seventy-seventh Regiment band. Gun carriage, bearing the remains. High
school cadets and junior officers. Deceased officer's (Lieut-Col. Ross)
horse. Cabs bearing mourners. Visiting officers and non-coms,
privates, non-com. officers. Military bearers, Brig.-Col. Bertram, Col.
Gwyn, Col. Grafton, Col. Moore, commanding officer 13th regiment,
Hamilton; Col. Logie, 91st Hamilton; Col. Rennie, Col. Griffin,
Hamilton, and Col. Tidswell, of the Hamilton Field battery.
Pallbearers, citizens and friends of the deceased, Dr. Malloch and Dr.
Olmstead, Hamilton; Dr. T.A. Bertram, Messrs. J.J. Steele, W.S. Wilson
James Somerville, Hon. Thos. Bain and F.D. Sutter, Dundas. The
procession, as the band played the dead march, moved off slowly and both
sides of King street were literally lined with onlookers. The carriage
bearing the floral offerings was inadequate to carry all the tokens so
generously tendered by friends of the deceased. After the carriages of
the mourners and their friends came the members of the town council,
board of education, Dundas Curling club, representatives of the board of
health and citizens generally. Rev. Mr. Gray officiated at the house,
and Rev. E.A. Irving read the services at the grave, after which
followed the firing of three volleys by No. 1 company, 77th regiment
over the grave. In carriages were Rev. S. H. Gray, Graham Ross,
Drummond Ross and John Ross, Mr. Roy, Reginald Graham, Rev. M. Cooke and
Mr. Cameron.
