James Martin, a well known and
highlye-esteemed resident of Sea -
forth, which occurred at his resi-
dence on Sunday, Jan. 17th, after a
few day's illness from pneumonia,
came as a shock to his friends in
the community, many of whom .were
not aware that he was ill, as he had
been around as . usual attending to
his business on Wednesday. ; The
deceased, who was a son of the late
James. Alexander Martin, was born
on the 2nd concession of Tucker -
smith. He was married in 1891 to
Miss Mary Ann Oke, daughter'of
the late ,Hugh. Oke, of�• Constance.
After,spending several years in that
locality they moved to Exeter for a
few months when Mr.Martin • pur-
chased Mr. John Hannah's farm on
the 2nd concession of Tnckersmith,
where they resided until the'death
of I'Jrs. , Martin in 1913, when he
moved with his son to Seaforth,
where he represented the Interna-
tional Harvester Co. In 1918 . Mr.
Martin was married the second time
to Miss Roselle Searle, of Blyth'and
has lived in Seaford' ever since:
He was a member to nber of the Indepen-
dent Order pf Forresters, a support-
er of the United church and a
