    Notes:

    Edmund Snell, Esq.

    Few of our citizens have done more to build up Galt's reputation than Mr. Snell. An Englishman by birth, bringing with him the dominant qualities of "push, pluck and tact," which for more than 35 years has made him one of the most successful exporters of cattle, sheep, &c., in Ontario. During 1896 some 8,000 cattle and 8,000 sheep were shipped to the European markets. As a citizen Mr. Snell enjoys the confidence and esteem of his fellows in a high degree.
