Mark McGARVEY (1874-1911)
In Memory Of Mark McGarvey Died Sep. 23, 1911 Age 37 Yrs. At Rest1 |
Mark McGarvey has a story for "Mathew [sic] was killed in Shellbrook crossing the railway with team and sleigh."2 And I would love to read more, especially a newspaper report, but of course 1911 is the year before the town of Shellbrook's newspaper was established in 1912!

That which we call Rozilee / by any other name would sound as sweet
What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
