Obituary:
"The telephone on Monday morning conveyed the startling intelligence that Dr. McCrea, of Warkworth, was dead, the sad event occurring at 10:30 the previous night. He had been ill but a few days, and the report of his death was therefore all the more startling. The deceased gentleman was born in Merrickville, Grenville County, Ontario, in 1819, and was therefore at the time of his death nearly 72 years of age. In early life he saw a little military service, during the exciting days of '37, serving as a lieutenant in his father's (the late Colonel McCrea) regiment and taking part in the battle of the "Windmill". In religion the deceased gentleman was a Presbyterian, and in politics a Reformer. He received his medical education at Victoria College, Coburg, commencing the practice of his profession at Roseneath, from whence after a five years; residence he removed to Warkworth, where he enjoyed a large and lucrative practice, which he relinquished to his son-in-law, Dr. Richards, on moving to Campbellford in 1892. Two years ago he retired from active practice and returned to Warkworth. He leaves a widow and one daughter, the latter being Mrs. Dr. Richards, who have the warmest sympathy of the whole county in their sad bereavement. The funeral took place yesterday."
