  	ISAAK MASTER The Registrar of Waterloo County died on Thursday morning at 11a.m. at his residence on Ahrens Street. His health had not been satisfactory for several years, and for 2 months, he had been seriously ill and wasn't able to leave the house. His burial took place on Saturday in Blenheim, after a funeral service had been held in Trinity Church. The deceased was born on March 19, 1835 in Wilmot, where he attended a country school, and acquired more than satisfactory education through diligent application to his books. He was interested in public works and took part in politics. He was a member of the Liberal party. After he had served his township for several years as a councillor and deputy reeve, he was elected the representative for South Waterloo to the provincial legislature in 1877 and an additional 2 times. In October 1893, he was named Registrar and moved to Berlin. Up until then, he had lived on his farm, west of New Dundee. He was a friendly, agreeable man, and had many friends.
