James MacDonald (McDonald) Obituary 1913
« on: Thursday 22 October 15 11:51 BST (UK) »
Hi,

Wondering if some kind person would have access to old "Oban Times" newspapers.  I'm after an Obituary written for James (McDonald) MacDonald. 
James died on the 16th Oct 1913 in Fort William.  The Obit was apparently written by the Minister of Kilmonivaig, Rev. John Walker MacIntyre.

Thanks so much in advance.  Dee  :D (Australia).
