HALLOCK WEEKLY NEWS
Hallock, Kittson County, Minnesota
Saturday, September 9, 1911
p. 5, col. 2.

"Last Monday afternoon, Aug. 28th, the funeral of the late Mrs. W. L. Gordon took place from her home in Brandon, Man. The deceased had been seriously ill for several months and she breathed her last, Saturday, Aug. 26th, in spite of all that the best of medical skill could do for her at the Brandon hospital. She leaves to mourn her loss a husband, three daughters and three sons. Mrs. Gordon is a sister of Mrs. Walter Kinshella of this city and lived here about 12 years ago on the old Mathieson farm three miles south of Hallock."

Mrs W. L. Gordon was Grace Jean Mathieson. From census returns (Canada 1891-1911), it appears that W. L. Gordon's first name was Winchell, born Ontario, about 1867, of Scottish parents, but I can find no other census records for him before or after this period.
