Barrette, superintendent of the Preston Light and Water Commission, died at his home, yesterday morning, at 10.45 o'clock. He was in his 52nd year. Generally known around Preston as the 24-hour man, Mr. Barrette was a familiar figure in municipal circles and his tragic passing came as a distinct shock to his fellow employees and to citizens. Born in Peterborough, Ont., the late superintendent came to Preston some years ago and has largely been responsible for developing the water and hydro utilities to the high degree of efficiency, they have attained today. In an advisory capacity to the commission on matters pertaining to the local plant the deceaded was invaluable.
