G. Stanbury, K, C„ had been appointed County Judge of Lin­ coln, with headquarters at S'. Catn- erines. While the announcement was one for congratulation for Mr. Stanbury and his family it was ting­ ed with regiet in that Exeter is to lose a worthy citizen and a highly respected family. Following his graduation from Osgoode Hall in 189 9 after a double couise in Political Economy and Moderns at th© University of Toron­ to where he secured his Arts degree, Judge Stanbury came to Exetei- as a young man and from the very first he has taken an active interest in the affairs of the municipality. For eight years he was a member of the Boaid of Education and it was dur­ ing that time that the school was raised from a continuation to the status of a high school and fifth form work was introduced.

G. s. stanbury, k. c„ Sixteen years ago when the Exe­ ter Horticultural Society was form­ ed Mr. Stanbury was elected secre­ tary-treasurer and he had held that position ever since. A lover of flow­ ers he had taken a great pride in them, particularly roses. Years ago when the Gladiolus was not grown as generally as it is now Mr. Stan­ bury took many prizes at the larger fairs, particularly the Canadian Na­ tion Exhibition, Toronto. Exeter owes much to the work of the Hor­ ticultural Society and its officers. In politics Mr. Stanbury has taken an active part. He is at. present the President of the Huron Liberal As­ sociation. Since coming to Exeter he has been a member of the execu­ tive in various capacities and In the various election campaign he had made many addresses throughout the riding in the interest of Liber­ alism. But it is in Caven Presbyterian church that perhaps he will be miss­ ed the greatest. For years he has been superintendent of the Sunday School and a member of the Session and his untiring efforts and wise counsel in the interests of his church will be greatly missed. Mrs. Stan­ bury and the family have been as­ sociated in an active way in the various branches of the church and their places will be hard to fill. In all matters that have pertain­ ed to the welfare of the municipal­ ity Judge Stanbury has been an ar- ent advocate. He -was president of the Ross-Taylor Company, Limited and of ths Times Printing Company, Limited. He has been a successful solicitor and his ability as a coun­ sel in the courts has long been re­ cognized. During the latte'.r part of last year he was appointed King’s Counsel. Following his appointment as Judge he has received many congra­ tulatory messages but perhaps the most outstanding message of them all was a marconigrain from Prem­ ier W. L. McKenzie King, who is at present attending the League of Na­ tions at Geneva, in which he sent heartiest congratulations. Judge Stanbury and his family will be leaving Exeter in the future but as yet their plans not been definitely settled, best wishes of many friends town and district will follow to their new home. In 1903 the partnership of Gladman & Stanbury was formed and with the. 'retirement of Mr. Stanbury Mr. Gladman will the bugin ess.
