MacDonald – At St. Martha’s Hospital, Monday, Nov. 24, 1930, after a few days’ illness, in the seventieth year of her age, Margaret, beloved wife of Capt. Angus MacDonald of Ballantynes Cove.  She was a daughter of the late Angus J. MacNeil of Livingstone’s Cove.  Of a kind and cheerful disposition, her simplicity and charity endeared her to all who had the pleasure of her acquaintance.  Consoled by the last sacrament, and prayers of several of the clergy, she died as she lived, fully reconciled to God’s holy will.  Besides a disconsolate husband she leaves to mourn their loss, three daughters and three sons, three other children having predeceased her.  Those who survive are Mrs. James F. MacEachern, Ballantynes Cove, Sr. Mary Austin  of the order of St. Martha’s , Little Bras D’Or, Colin F, Ballantyne’s Cove, Angus and Catherine at home, also an adopted daughter Jane in Massachusetts.  She is also survived by two sisters, Bella of Boston and Mrs. Malcolm MacEachern of Ballantyne’s Cove.
