HUBBARDS, October 8 - A more than usually sad drowning accident took place on the west side of St. Margaret's Bay this morning, when Leslie COOLEN returning with his cousin Asaph COOLEN from their trawls, was drowned by the capsizing of their boat. The wind was squally and the water rough. The accident took place between the bell buoy and Fox Point. Leslie was unable to swim and although clinging to an oar soon became exhausted and sank. Asaph could swim, and with the aid of the other oar kept afloat until a boat put off from the shore. The deceased was twenty-nine years of age, an intelligent, respected and industrious fisherman, and the youngest son of John Joseph COOLEN, Sr. He leaves a widow and two children. A large party were this afternoon grappling for the body, but without success.

The death occurred rather suddenly yesterday afternoon, at his residence, 111 Maitland street, of John T. EDWARDS, one of the best known and most highly respected residents of the north end. Mr. EDWARDS was for a number of years employed in the customs department, his record therein being one of faithfulness and efficiency. He has, however, been a confirmed invalid for the past six years, and has for that period been confined to his house, suffering intensely at times.
Mr. EDWARDS was twice married, his first wife having been a Miss ALLAN. Two children of this marriage survive - Harry A., manager of the Halifax office of G. J. Hamilton & Sons, Pictou, and Charlotte, living in the States. Mr. EDWARDS' second wife was Miss Bella MacDONALD, of Mabou, Cape Breton.
Mrs. Lewis L. HAMILTON and Miss Florence EDWARDS, of Upper Sackville, are sisters of the deceased.
Mr. EDWARDS enjoyed the respect and hearty liking of all who knew him and much sympathy is expressed for the members of the family in their bereavement. The funeral will take place on Friday afternoon at half-past three o'clock to St. John's cemetery.
The Evening Mail, Saturday, 23 March 1907, p. 16, col. 3:
The funeral of John T. EDWARDS, which took place yesterday afternoon from 111 Maitland street, was largely attended. The Rev. Thomas FOWLER, of St. Matthew's church, and the Rev. M.A. MacKINNON, conducted the service at the house, the Rev. N. LeMOINE, rector of St. Mark's, officiating at the grave. Both services were very impressive. H.A.

Thomas EDWARDS, who passed away yesterday at the Victoria general hospital, Halifax, was one of the best known men in Eastern Passage and Devil's Island. He was the oldest resident of the latter settlement where he was respected by everybody. Mr. EDWARDS was one of the early settlers on the island, and his life was one of adventure, such as only a hardy fisherman knows. In his island home he brought up a large family, most of whom are well-known in Halifax and Dartmouth. Hospitable and kind to all who came his way, Thomas EDWARDS will long be missed by those who were thrown in contact with him. The funeral takes place at the Eastern Passage at one o'clock tomorrow.
The Evening Mail, Saturday, 24 March 1900, p. 5:
One of the largest funerals that has ever been seen in Eastern Passage took place yesterday afternoon (23rd) when the last marks of respect were paid to the remains of the late Thomas EDWARDS, of Devil's Island. The funeral took place from his daughter's (Mrs. Andrew CLEARY) and proceeded to the Catholic church, were the Rev. Father UNDERWOOD performed the funeral service. He spoke for some time on the qualities of the deceased, having been intimately acquainted with him for the past fifteen years. He knew no man for whom he had more respect - a man of his word, a man that edified the community in which he moved. After the service the remains were interred in the family lot in the cemetery.
Mr. EDWARDS was the oldest resident on Devil's Island, having settled there about 60 years ago. He was one of the first that built there. During the years he lived there, he endeared himself to those about him and often braved wind and waves to save human life and to give happiness to others.
