Henry George Clarke, sail-
or, soldier, beachcomber, then
CPR Express Company employee
until his retirement 29 years
ago, observed his 92nd birthday
quietly last Monday at the Vil-
lage Nursing Home, Fordwich.
When asked for his recipe for
longevity Mr. Clarke com-
mented: "Hard work didn't kill
anyone."
Mr. Clarke, who enjoys
fishing and stands firm in his
belief that Canada is the best
country in the world, said "Can-
ada has been good to me."
Born in Seaford, Sussex, a
channel coast town in the south
of England, he first came to
Canada in 1891. He went back
to England and discovered his
move had been a mistake. He
returned to Canada, coming to
Toronto in 1912, where he was
employed by the CPR Express
Company. In the meantime he
had been married to the former
Susan Gibbs in England.
The couple sailed from
Southampton one week before
the Titanic left on her fateful
voyage.
Among his recollections is
that of knowing Lady Churchill,
wife of the late Sir Winston
Churchill when she was a little
girl in Sussex, and her mother,
Madame Blanche Osier.
He served overseas with the
Canadian Army from 1915 to
1918 and during that time was
transferred to the Army Service
Corps.
Eight of his ten children are
still living. Two of his daugh-
ters died. His youngest son,
Vernon, is employed as a fore-
man with Berry Door; sons
George and William live in
Toronto and another son, James
is employed with the Depart-
ment of Highways of Ontario, at
Wroxeter.
His daughters are Mrs. Wil-
liam (Doris) Skelton and Mrs.
Fred (Annie) Brown of Toronto;
Mrs. Gordon (Betty) Rickard of
Leaside and Mrs. Ivan (Marg-
aret) Brothers of Fort Lee, N.J.
lie has 18 grandchildren and
26 great-grandchildren.
He is a member of the
Church of England.
Following his retirement
from the CPR in Toronto 29
years ago he moved to Listowel,
staying there a few years, then
moved to Wroxeter where he
built the bungalow which is his
present home,
Mr. Clarke has a lively
sense of humor, an excellent
memory and a surprising alert-
ness for one of his years.

WHITECHURCH—On Tues-
day evening of last week 16 lot

the Langside Cemetery met at
the home of Mr. and Mrs.Chas.
Tiffin. Mr. Tiffin presided.
Jamieson Pettypiece and
Mrs. Victor Emerson, who had
attended a meeting of the town-
ship council, reported that
council will not be taking on
the responsibility of the ceme-
tery and the group must now ap-
point three trustees as outlined
in the Cemetery Act.
It was decided that Mr. Pet-
typiece should advertise ameet-
ing for the purpose of appoint-
ing trustees during the week of
Sept. 15 to 22 and that elec-
tion take place on Sept. 29, at
the home of Charles Tiffin.

1872 the cemetery was called
Langside and in 1920 it was
called Tiffin's. A motion car-
ried that henceforth the ceme-
tery be known as Langside Cem-
etery. Mrs. Emerson will paint
the cemetery posts green and
arrangements were made for
lawn mowing.
Names of those paying for
perpetual care were read. The
secretary was given a list of
those owning lots and half lots,
and was instructed to prepare a

pay, if possible, $40.00 for a
half lot and $00.00 per lot for
perpetual care, If this cannot
be done a contribution would
he gratefully accepted.
