of the death of W.'_T. O'Neil, which
occurred near Ashburn, Ga, while en
route to his 'Inter home at Orlando.
Florida,. where he had been obliged
to spend his winters for some years
past owing to failing health. Mr.
O'Neil was accompanied by his wife
and Miss McTavish, nurse, and at the
next station, Valdosta,- they had the
body removed from the train, where
it was made ready for thereturn
journey. Mrs. O'Neil said that the
train officials, the people at the hotel
where they stayed at Valdosta, and
everyone with whoa, they came in
contact were unfailing' in their kind-
ness to them. in the trying ordeal.
Mr, O'Neil had not been nearly so
well the past summer as he usually
was on his return from this South and
it was seen that his strength was
failing, but his physicians .thought
that if he could get to the South, that
the balmy air and sunshine might
possiblyrevivehis failing strength
but he failed to stand the journey.
His heart gave out the second day and
be passed quietly away in the arms of
lois wife, who was supporting him at
the time.
The funeral was held from his late
residence, 'Ontario 'street, on Sunday

for some time. 'For some years
he worked for the late J. V. Irwin,

eight, years ago he started business
for himself and was `known as a very
herd worker and a good man' of busi-
ness. - Re built up a good trade; be-
ing assisted 'by his daughter, Miss
Winnifred, as soon as her education
was completed, and during the past
