1870 and IMO was couucillor. In 1000
he was again chosen as chief executive
officer of the village. In business
matters as regards Lucan, Me. O'Nei
first went into the grain business.
Next in partnership with Messrs. Thos
Dight and B. Stanley, he built the
flouring and oatmeal mill destroyed by
fire in April 1809, and for the next. 1,5
years he was actively identified with
tills important commercial interest.
On Sept, 27th, 1876, elr O'Neil sold ont
his interest in the grain business and
established a private bank, under the
name of R. H. O'Neil & Son. Business
was first carried on in a frame build-
ing, and in August, iet.83, the present
handsome brick building was erected.
After M years of saccessful and
honorable career as a banker, Mr.
O'Neil retired from business, to he
succeeded by The Merchants' Bank of
Canada. The educational interests of
Lucan have alwa,ys had an active
sponsor in Mr. O'Neil. As far back as
1869 he was elected public settee' true -
tee, and in 1876we find his name again
mentionod in that capacity. and for
some years was a member of the
latean High School' Board. During
the years of trouble through which
Lucan passed, Mr. O'Neil seems to
have been able to keep the good will
of the entire community. In politics
be bas always been a staunch Conser-
vative and has done a great deal of
good work for the party. 'Although
given the opportimity at times, he
never chose to enter' the arena of
political strife, preferring to remain a
quiet but loyal' adherent to his party
principles. In religious belief he was
'a consistent and earnest member of
the Anglican church, and assisted by

THE DEATH OP Joule HALL. -One
by one the pioneers of this township
are passing away and in the natural
order of events the time must soon
come when all will be gone. The last
one to pass off the stage of action in
this vicinity was John Halls who died
at his residence in. this village on Sun-
day morning March 21th 1001 aged 74
years. Deceased was born m the
county of Devon, England, and emi-
grated to this country when quite a
young man. His ancestors for gener-
ations were masons and followed the
same trade, working for several years
in the neighborhood of London during
the working seasons and being a keen
sportsman, he spent the winters hunt-
ing. During the early years of settle-
ment in this township he purchased
the north half of lot 11 concession 7
where he resided most of time until
one year ago whenihe removed to the
village. For maity years he enjoyed
a large business as contractor and
builder and many farm hoeses
stand to -day as monuments ot his
industry. He was a first class' brick-
layer, a staunch eonservative and pro-
bably the best read man in the town-
ship, who during a long life had only
read one book of fiction and that a
work of Charles Dickens. A man of
more than ordinary ability of high
principle and strict integrity has gone
and his mortal remains were follewed
bysympathizing friendsto the Elinaville
cemetery on Monday afternoon. and
there interred. Deceased leaves one
daughter and four sons to mourn his
departure,
