A SUDDEN CALL. • Many in this vicinity will read with sorrowful interest the following taken from Tho London Free Press of Fri- day last, Mr. McRoberts as a young man taught school in No. 9, Goder- ich township and Holmesville and he was well-known and highly es- teemed by many hereabouts. His wife was formerly Miss Flossie Pickard of Helmesville. "Stricken with an attack of heart trouble while making an inspection of Monck school near Braeebridge Wed- nesday, John H. McRoberts, a former well-known member of the Londen mobile school and later the collegiate teaching staff, passed away suddenly before medical aid could be summoned, Mr. McRoberts complained of feeling unwell and stepped • outside the school. One of the teachers went out to see if he could aid the stricken in- spector in any way; but he found 'life extinct, . • Tho late Mr. •McRoberts was born in London, township and spent his early clays in this city and district. After graduating ..from Normal School he was appointed in 1905 to Grand Avenue public school;, in this city. In 1907 he became principal of Aberdeen- school, a position he held until 1909 when he retired to become public librarian. In the year 1911 he accepted a position •on the teaching' staff of the old Collegiate institute and he're- maitxed there for she next five years, leaving in 1916'to go to Port Arthur where he had been offered the posi- tion of suepivising ! principal of schools. In 1924 this 'position was,. abolished and Mr. McRoberts again took up collegiate teaching at the high school in Port Arthur, • - •Wen J. C. Stothers, at, present publib school inspector here; resigned his position at•Bracebridge, Mr. -Mc,. Roberts was named to fill the vadan- cy and he had only taken up his duties there seine seven months- ago. He was declared by those inthis city who new him ;to be an exceptionally moble member of the teaching pro- fession •both in the primary and secondary schools and his death will mean a distinct loss to Ontario edu- cational circles."` Mr. McRoberts' -death was- due to an internal hemorrhage, rather than a heart attack, His remains were brought. to his old bone at Grantor, where a brother still ` re- sides, and the funeral took place` on ;Saturday afternoon to the cemetery a't' Birr.
