J. E. Hugill Will
Go To Florida
Jonathan E. Hugill, weIl-
known over a wide area in
Perth and Huron Counties for
the hundreds of concrete silos
'he has erected during the, past
30 years, is moving to Florida.
He said Wednesday he had
rented his Huron Road farm to
his son, Harold Hugill, and sold
his interest in th'e silo business
to his son, Wesley, of Zurich,
with whom he has been associ-
ated.
Mr. Hugill has purchased a
tourist home business in Day-
tona Beach, Florida, and leaves
here Tuesday. ,He spent sev-
eral weeks there during the
winter investigating several ac-
tivities before making a deci-
sion.
In renting the Hugill home-
stead—one of the show farms
on the Huron Road — Harold
Hugill will combine it with his
adjoining farm of 200 acres.
Referring to the years he has
spent in the area, Mr. Hugill
said the decision to move south
was prompted by a wish for a
little easier life. While he had
enjoyed every minute, -he
thought the time had come to
take things easier. He express -
'•ed appreciation to all who had
co-operated with him and with
whom he had done business
over so many years.
