Exeter Undertaker
Exeter’s grand old man, Ro
bert N. Rowe, passed away Tues
day while working in his garden,
a place where he delighted to
spend part of his time. He was
nearing his ninetieth birthday
and appeared to be in excellent
health. The day before his death
he enjoyed a car ride around
the town, _
homes that have been erected
and the business'places that have
been improved and he took a
great interest and delight in
seeing the many improvements.
For 58 years Mr. Rowe had
been in business in Exeter as a
furniture dealer and under
taker. In 1945 he disposed of
his business to his grandson,
Robert Dinney. In
years funerals were conducted
with spanking black ponies
covered with a black netting and
drawing a high funeral coach.'
Particularly in winter when
roads were piled high with snow
or pitch-holes were frequent, the
work of an undertaker was not
always a pleasant duty. The
possession of his first motor
coach was an event in his career.
Mr. Rowe was born in Stephen
township and was one of four
teen children, two of whom died
in infancy. When he started his
career in the furniture business
; he worked at Lucan for a couple
of years, his wages being $4.50
a week and he paid $2.50 for
■board.
He was a member or Lebanon
Forest Lodge, A.F. & A.M.; the
Oddfellow’s lodge and the Can
adian Order of Foresters. For a
number of years he served on
the Board of Education; was an
official

Mrs. Rowe predeceased
December 19 43.
Surviving are three daughters,
Miss Vera, at home; Mrs. Idl
Dinney and Mrs. James Smith,
both of Exeter; also one sister,
Mrs. Windsor, of Brown City,
Mich., now in her ninety-third
year, three grandchildren aiid
six great grandchildren.
The funeral Friday afternoon
at 2:30 will be held from the
R. C. Dinney funeral home under
Masonic auspices with Rev. H. J.
Snell officiating.
