Tax included AS HE WAS KNOWN. The curtain for one who loved and was loved has at lest rolled down; and seventy-seven years made a very long act.. Yet this was the thne allotted to Mr, Edward McFaul to know and to be known. Recalling over -two-score of them-- remembering hem—remembering that thirty-seven of them were spent in !Seaforth, remindful that these years were fraught with busi- ness activities and perplexities ••realiz- ing the radically changed conditions of life and living that have taken place during the interval, the writer 'cannot but dwell in thought on a personality so magnetic, on a relationship so dear as his was. Iu business he 'believed it possible to find in the world true -hearted, leal and faithful dealing :between man and man; and in the possession of this be- lief he he'd one 0f life's precious gifts: In 'the wells of a nature such as Inc selfishness •wo'ul'd drown. IHe believed in the nobler relationship of linking himself to others. He had joy in the knowledge that' he +was something to others and' -others were everything to him. He had many staunch and faithful friends because his unselfish standards -expended the love which is necessary to procure such. It is a pleasant 'task to 'follow in the footprints of d•loyal friend. 'Believing this, after he retired from business .and had more tuns 'than formerly at his disposal, he shrave to follow in the path'of 'tris greatest Friend, He who set the noblest example to mankind.: Every week he did what he could in an unpretentious way 'to make effec tive some Biblical sness'age. 'Two of the churches in St. Thomas, also the Y.M1C.A.'of that city' will bear testi- mony of 'this fact for years to come. On the walls of these buildings hang. numerous, suitably framed mottoes, beautifully executed by his 'brush and And numerous friends far and pen. A d tient-, have in their ,possession some t P motto or verse of 'Scripture, written and embellished' by'him inc such a way that he hoped it would. effect a Tasting impression for good. At +Christmas time the members of the Y. M. CA., St. Thomas, and the train -crew of +the L &P.'S, Railway. were always remembered by him in. some tangible way. The passing of Mr, MoFaul brings to mind the fol - towing beautiful stanzas: "Not weaker now our chain, but stronger In ail our loss and all our ill We now shall look a little longer At ev'ry star above the hill And think of him, and have him still. Whatever vales we yet may wander; w , What sorrow come, what tempest blow, •We .have a'friend, a friend :otityonder, To greet us when we' have to. go- Out yonder someone that we know.
