He was a hard worker having charge of many town activities such as street work, excavation for new waterworks mains, the condition of the pumps at the wells which he had to visit every night and even the job of weed inspector was wished on him. In 1921 he married Hilda Dorothy Webb of Vernon, British Columbia where they lived for a short time before coming to Almonte. He leaves to mourn his loss besides his wife, three sons, namely, Ronald, Barry and Edgar also two brothers, Albert of Carleton Place and Peter of Ramsay; also two sisters, Mrs H.
