    Notes:

    SUDDEN DEATH OF MR. T. SAUNDERS.

    The citizens of our village were shocked on Monday morning to hear of the death of Mr. Thos. Saunders, who has been spending the winter with his son, A. J. Saunders, druggist.

    The sad event happened during the absence of the latter, who was in Toronto on a short business trip.

    Deceased, who was apparently in good health on the day previous, failed to put in an appearance at the store on Monday morning, and as time passed and he had not been seen to leave the house, an entrance was effected, and the old gentleman found in bed, life apparently having been extinct for some time. The doctor was immediately summoned and expressed the opinion that he had passed away in his sleep during the night, heart disease being the cause of death. He had suffered lately from several attacks of heart weakness, though his appearance suggested nothing but the most robust health. The remains were conveyed to the old home town of Roxeter [sic], Huron county, on Tuesday evening, for interment the following day.

    During the past few months deceased had become a well-known and revered figure on our village streets, his youthful activity and upright bearing attracting general admiration. He had ever a cheerful word for all with whom he came in contact, and his genial face will be greatly.

    Wellesley Maple Leaf, April 23, 1908

    The remains of the late Thomas B. Saunders, Esq., who expired suddenly in this village Monday morning of last week were taken to Milverton on Tuesday evening, and forwarded to Wroxeter where interment took place on Wednesday. The deceased gentleman was born in Galt where he learned the harness-making trade. In early life he established himself in Wroxeter, building up a large harness business which he conducted successfully for many years. He was connected with public affairs in Wroxeter, being reeve of that village for many years and a prominent member of the Huron County Council. On the death of his wife a few years ago, he sold his business to his elder son, since which time he has lived a retired life, spending his time with his children at Sault Ste. Marie, Toronto and here in Wellesley. His character was one of sterling integrity and strict up rightness and was widely known in Huron County. In politics he was a staunch Liberal and had he chosen a political life could have been the representative of East Huron in parliament.

    Notes:

    David Saunders, Saddlery and Harness, Main Street - The house whose name heads this article has earned the distinction of being an energetic, reliable and conscientious concern for manufacturing first-class harness, etc., the policy being conducted in accordance with the old maxim, that "what is worth doing at all is worth doing well," and as a consequence has built up a trade that not only includes the town of Galt, but the surrounding country as well. The business was founded eight years ago, and since its inception it has steadily increased in reputation and extent, until to0day it has an enviable name for the high quality of goods manufactured. The premises occupied are 22x50 feet in dimensions and two stories in height. Five skilled workmen are given employment in turning out the very best description of single and double harness and saddles, which for elegance, style and lightness, durability and general excellence, are not to be excelled here or elsewhere. In addition to manufacturing, Mr. Saunders carries in stock a full assortment of whips, horse blankets, curry-combs, brushes, and all other necessary stable accessories. Mr. Saunders is a native of Scotland, and has resided in this country for 43 years, and is an energetic, enterprising and persevering business man, and one held in high esteem in the community for his many excellent social and business qualities.
