    • DOUGLAS LILLICO

      Prominent Blenheim Farmer Passes Away Tuesday Night After Brief Illness


      The death occurred on Tuesday evening at 8.30 o'clock of a well-known and highly-esteemed resident of Blenheim township in the person of Douglas Lillico, 10th concession, in his 67th year. Deceased was taken ill on Friday night with heart trouble and other complications, and his condition gradually grew more serious until death intervened.


      He was born on the farm on which he died, known as the Lillico homestead, being the youngest son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Robert Lillico. He took an active interest in all matters pertaining to the betterment of the community and was known as a successful and progressive farmer. In May, 1909, shortly after its organization, he was elected a director of the Ayr Rural Telephone Company, a position which he had held ever since.

      Deceased was a valued member of Knox United Church and for the past eleven years was a member of the board of trustees. Previous to that time, he had served on the board of managers. Fraternally, he was a member of Dolman Lodge, I.O.O.F. Mr. Lillico was a good citizen, of exemplary habits, and his many fine qualities won him the respect and esteem of a host of friends and acquaintances. Deceased is survived by the following four daughters, his wife having predeceased him nine years ago: Mrs. Andrew C. Hall, Blenheim; Mrs. Deans Cochrane, North Dumfries; Mrs. Robert McRuer, Blenheim, and Mrs, Robert G. Brown, North Dumfries. Also surviving are one sister, Elizabeth Lillico, and one brother, Murdo Lillico, both of Blenheim. The funeral will take place on Friday afternoon at 2.30 o'clock to the Ayr Cemetery.
