There were about twenty-five
friends present to spend a pleasant
social evening during which con
tests were engaged in, but underly-
irig the apparent gaiety rihere was.
doubtless a touch of sadness, for.
Miss Carrick has many friends' who
regret that Lucknow is no longer

Sixty-three .years, ago,. Mr. Mac-
Lean was born on the homestead in
Ashfield.- After receiving his high
school education in Goderich, he
took a Model School. coufse a arid
taught fob three years at the, 2nd
Concession school ,in Kinloss and
then for two years, at his home
school at . Lothian. ■
A clever student and ambitious,
Mr. McLean entered Toronto Uni
versity and graduated with his fi.A.
degree im? 1962, and ■, for a time
faugh school in Illinois.
Mr. MacLean then performed the
unusual feat of attending at the
same time, thd Chicago Medical
College and the College of Osteopa
thy, graduating , after strenuous
years of • study, with his degree in
both professions. For upward^ to
afWerjty-five years he has practised
in Chicago, with his home in Evan
ston, a suburb of the city.
Nineteen years ago he married
Willena Grant of Detreit, who with,
a family of six. children, mourns
the early passing of a loving hus-
bf Hilliers Crossing, Vancouver Is/hand and father.-
Dr. MacLean was |evotqd to his
profession for the good he could do,
and could claim that. he never re
fused to administer to the needs of
any patient although many cases
Jhd knew full well were charity
cases. HiS friends pay.tribute to his
sterling character^and the upright-,
ness of one who was an exemplary
.citizen. " ,
This fact is evident in the eulogy
■paid- the departed by Rev. gilsley
at the funeral service held in Evan
