Of a generous, kind-hearted disposition, he was highly esteemed by many friends and his early ? regretted. He was a valued member of Dolman Lodge, I. 0. 0. F., and took a leading part in the social activities of that organization. He was also a member of Knox United Church. Besides his widow, whose maiden name was Margaret McCloy, he is survived by one son, Norman, aged 2 years; also by his mother, Mrs. Mary Nickerson, and one brother, Laidlaw, of London.
