THE LATE ALFRED BOWlti
'The death took place in Exeter

land and came to this country as a
young m'aii most of his life having
been spent in thin community. • He

years was one of the bell-ringers of

meant much to. the town has chang-
ed 4/ands. The Ross -Taylor , Co.,
Limited, has sold out to three gentle-
men len frons Chatham and Wallace-
burg will) wi11 take, ,over' the plant
on February lith and in future the
business will be known o$ the Exe-
ter Lumber Company, limited, The
new proprietors 'are David .A.. Ger,
don,. hardware merchant and alder-
man of the city of Chatham, and
Edgerton C. and R. Claude ;Morse.
The Ross -Taylor Company has
been one of the thriving' industries
of Exeter. It was established in.
1876 by Messrs, ,Boss Bros. and Da-
vidson and one year later Mr. John
W. Taylor, of town, took the place
of Mr. Davidson, Twenty-five years
agothe company was' reorganized
as a ,joint stock company with Mr..
Taylor as the first president; the
late D. A. Ross, Secretary -Treasurer
and Mr. J., R. Hind. In 1908 when
Mr, Taylor retired Mr. Hind took
over the manageiriertt and has con-
tinued in that. capacity until the
present. For a number of years Mr.
J. G. ,Stanbury has been the presi-
dent of 'the company.
With the names of those already
mentioned should be linked up the
name. of IYfr. A, E. Fuke, who has
been identified . with the company
since its early 'days. To the ability
and integrity of Mr. Fuke has been
due in some 'measure the splendid
success that this company has en-'
joyed. During the past few years
Mr. Fuke, at times, has not enjoyed
the best of health, and he will now
take a well-earned rest. •
Members of the Ross -Taylor Com
parry have served the municipality
in litany capacities. For a number
of years, Mr. John W. Taylor served
on the council and was the reeve of
the town. Mr. Fuke has served the
town well, both on the Council
Beard and the Board of Education.
Mr. John R. Hind was also a mem
ber of the council and for year was
the chairman of the Pt olid Utilities
Commission and much of t]ie et:edit
