"Farewell, "From your unworthy friend, "WM.BLACK."Policene Gore's mother had a more than ordinarily eventful life.Her grandson Edward writes:
"My grandmother was born in the United States, then the New England colonies.Her first husband was Captain Ward; their home was near the garrison on Grattan Heights.Captain Ward arrived home from sea with his vessel the day before Arnold made his attack on the garrison, and, joining in the defence, was fatally shot.Mrs.Ward's next husband was my grandfather Gore, who was also a sea-captain.Some years after they were married Captain Gore took his wife to Fort Lawrence, Nova Scotia, where they had friends, and her husband returned with his vessel to make another voyage, but was never heard from after.It was supposed the vessel was lost with all on board."After living some years in widowhood, Mrs.Gore married a Mr.Foster, a school-teacher.They lived for a time in a house on the school lands in Jolicure.The schoolmaster did not live long to enjoy his married life.
His successor was a Mr.Trites, of Salisbury.He only lived a few months after marriage.Mrs.Trites' fifth and last husband was a Mr.
Siddall, of Westmoreland Point.After his death Mrs.Siddall lived with her daughter, Mrs.Trueman, where, in the words of her grandson, "she lived eighteen years, a happy old woman and a blessing in the family."She was in her eighty-fourth year at the time of her death.
