Here he took an active part in everything for its betterment. If anyone ever personified a Christian gentleman, it was he, The concern of people in geed was always uppermost in his mind and where a helping hand was needed, he was there to help. It was a great privi- lege and inspiration to have him as a neighbor, The welfare of the village and township was of great inter- est to him, He spent many hours helping improve and maintain our community park to make it a very popular and beautiful meeting place, This year he was one of the most active members of the Howick Centennial Committee and on the day of our celebra- tion conducted the registration booth for visitors at the Ford- wich fair grounds. Before moving to Gorrie ov- er 20 years ago, he farmed on Con. 9, where he had one of Western Ontario's better herds of Yorkshire swine. He had been on the Howick Township Agri- cultural Society Board for many years. His service and know- ledge will be greatly missed. A few years ago he compil- ed and edited a most concise history of Howick Township. This accurate history will al- ways be a living memory of his great knowledge of the town- ship. He was also a member of Huron Historical Society. The L.O.L. and Masonic lodges have lost a most faith- ful member. The large num- ber of people who came to pay tribute to him prior to and at the funeral gave some indica- tion of the high esteem in which he was held. He is gone from us. His pleasing personality and wisdom will be greatly missed. He set an example of service to the church, the village and the township. If this vacuum caus- ed by his death is to be filled, it will be necessary for those of us who remain to follow his ex- ample of helping others and making this community a bet- ter place in which to live, The locusts of the plagues are also called shorthorn grass- hoppers.
