He belonged to the older generation of Welland business men and he held in an unusual degree the respect and confidence of the communrty. For Some years his health had been failing and last year his condition was such Hutt he was in the hospital for some time. However, he improved and gave promise of a full return to his old self. But it was not to be, He was man who found muoh to interogt him outside of business activities and the day's work. Music was with him a passion. He was especially gifted as a leader and in the years in which he directed the Welland Methodist Church choir, he brought it to a high state of perfection not alone because of his technical qualifications for the work.. but as well because of his faithfulness and devotion ttnd, too, because of a tact and kindliness that never failed to produce a cordial good will and a hearty co-operation, In the years fol- lowing his retirement from business Mr. Lawrence devoted himself fu two hobbies—painting and the making of children's furniture in both of which he had unusual skill and good taste. I•le was one of the stalwart figures of the Methodist church, and for many years a member of the Trustee Board and Quarterly Board. A man of stain- less reputation and unimpeachable character his name stands for honor and integrity in all responsibilities of life Mr.' Lawrence was born in Atist- wish Yorkshire, England, on December 17, 187,I,' and was thus in his 7 is( year.
