  • Notes 
    • Dilman Kinsey Erb, who represents South Perth in the new Parliament, is of Pennsylvania- Dutch descent and was born in the County of Waterloo, Ont., in 1857. He was educated at the Public Schools of his native place, and taught school eight years. He has been School Trustee for nine years, and has always taken a lively interest in the promotion of education within the sphere of his influence. For four years he was President of the Sebringville Flax Co., Ltd., and took much interest in the development of the growth of that crop in the district. He was Township Councillor for two years and Deputy Reeve for three years. He is highly respected for his business ability and straightforwardness in all his transactions, and has always been a thorough-going Liberal in politics, and will always be found ready to support every measure which commends itself to his judgment as being for the best interests of the country. He was elected to the Dominion House at the last general elections for the first time. A Liberal. Sebringville, O.
