It was- tboughtt he was recovering but a relapse caste and he only lived a few days. One ciicuiustance , which made his death doubly hard was the fact that his mother, who was ill when he was taken sick, -was in the hospital when he died, and although she was able to see him :a'few times, was unable to be with him as she would haveliked to be. Muth sympathy is felt for his parents in their bereavement. The funeral' 'took place from the family home, Victoria street, en Sat- urday afternoon. The services were conducted by the Rev. A. A.

GEORGE HAM PASSES ON At his home in Montreal on Friday last George Henry Ram, one of Can- ada's best -!mown men, passed away in his seventy-seventh year. Mr. Ham, who for thirty-five years had been head of the 'C. P. R, Public- ity Department, had occupied a unique position. To him fell theeluty, among others, and well he fulfilled it, of con- ducting parties across - the country over the company's road. In this way he came into contact with almost every distinguished person or party ' which ever toured Canada. And a kindlier friend it would be hard to find than the same George Hant, Jovial, witty, a man who never forgot a friend`nnd who seemed to have nn enemies, .his presence added zest to any gathering, He, had tried his hand at soldiering in his young days and for a number of year's was ' en- gaged in newspaper work. Ito never lost his interest int journalism and never, perhaps, did he enjoy himself" so we]1 ae. when with a party of news- paper men. He was honorarya dent of the Ottawa Press Calleryrand o also of the Canadian Women's Press Club, which was originally formed a under his kindly direction and with c his assistance I -Ie was a man of h wonderful personality and anyone who ever came under the charm of George Ham's personality never for- d got hhn. P The remains were brought to Whit- by, his boyhood hone, for interment a and at the funeral were gathered to- d gather not only friends and relatives, h but scores of railway men from Mont- h real and Toronto and newspaper men and women from the sante cities and other places. t The tate Ilii,•. Ram was a first ° cousin of Mee. Henry Pltinsteel of b Clinton. Mrs, Plumsteel spent her girlhood with ]ter uncle, growing up ° in the hone with her cousin. He had .P on more than one occasion visited his ° cousin here. t • linton 1..926 .P g S r�iu- ' Fair A uccess.
