Thomas George Gaunt, who
had been in failing health for
over two years, died on Sun-
day, March 22 at the Brook-
haven Nursing glome, where he

SUM n1at,
11e was born in Kinloss
Township SO years ago and was
a son of the late James Gaunt
.ind Elizabeth Mirehouse. He
was the last survivor of the
family. A brother Edwin, of
Whitechurch and a sister, Mrs.
Albert (Jane) Green of Tees -
water predeceased him.
Mr. Gaunt married Eliza-
beth McKenzie of Kinloss on
January 29, 1902. His surviv-
ors by this marriage are John
James of Whitechurch, Earl
Russel, Kinloss Twp., Mrs.
Merle Casemore of London and
a step -daughter, Mrs. Joseph
Stephenson, London. A son,
George Stanley died in 1907
and a daughter, Mrs. Norman

There are ten grandchildren

"Wingham," he said, "can
be one of the finest towns in
the country. Two things are
required: money and effort:'
WEEKLY COLLECTION
The chairman introduced the
subject of a weekly collection
from association members to
finance the various promotions.
Several of those present spoke
on the proposal, some indicat-
ing that if worthwhile results
are to be obtained a highercon-
tribution will be needed.
The treasurer, Warren Callan
reviewed the financial state-
ment, which revealed a def-
icit of $374.00, and explained
that at least a portion of this
amount had resulted from the
unexpectedly large demand for
draw tickets in the "Lucky
Bucks" promotion before Christ-
mas. He said that one dollara
week from each member is a
bare minimum if successful pro-
motions are to be carried out
and suggested two dollars would
be more realistic.
John Mckibbon expressed
his belief that the association
should provide some type of
attraction such as band concerts
or ball games for Friday night
shoppers. Several others ag-
reed.
The chairman asked each
man present to voice his opin-
ion about a weekly collection
and opinion appearedtobe 1005,
in favor of a collection of at
least $1.00 per week and many'
said they would contribute more
if necessary. A few said they
would prefer to give post-dated
cheques rather than weekly
fees.
Jack Walker moved that the
weekly contribution be $2.00
except for such businesses as do
not benefit directly from pro-
motions; in which case the ex -
years and will long be remem-
bered as a good neighbor and
friend.
As a member of the Cana-
dian Order of Foresters' for
over 00 years, Mr. Gaunt re-
ceived a 00 year pin a couple
of years ago. Mr, Gaunt was
a member of St. Andrew's
Presbyterian Church, Wingham,
but had been active in church
work at Whitechurch in his
earlier years.
The funeral was on 'I'ttesday
afternoon at the R. A. Currie
Sons funeral home. Rev. G.
Fish and Rev. D. Sinclair con-
ducted the service and inter-
ment was in the Wingham ce-
metery.
Pallbearers were three
grandsons, James, Donald and
Harold Gaunt, and Jack Lloyd,
Wilfred henry and Mervyn
Templeman.
Marley and Beth Gaunt,
Alex McKenzie and James Mc-
Intosh were the flower bearers,
