MI’. MscLeod remained with this firm for twelve years. aaquu- ing a thorough knowleqe of the business. On nusry l, i898, he and anothenclark, Mr. George M. Moore. bought out the firm in which they were employed and founded their own establishment of Moors and MacLeod on the same preznises. In the following year Messrs. W, A. Stewart and J. P. Gordon were admitted as partners. As noted above, Mr. Maclieodb death has been one first break in this business re- iutionship which continued unin- terruptedly for "fifty-four years. During that time the business has continued to expand and the firm occupies a. leading place among tnc dry goods establishments of the Msritimes.

Many Activities

Zaq sasoclmd with the Che:-

lot ii "Board of Trade, llr. lifacLeod was one of its ablest and most active ‘members. He was a past president of the organization, and was instrumental in obtain- ing many improvemcnta in trans- portation and other service: for the City and Province. He was s‘ successful delegate w Ottawa. on many occasions. notab- ly when he accompanied the lath Messrs. Nelson Rattenbury and 5. A. MacDonald, Judge Arsenault. Senator Sinclair and the late R. H. Jenkins, M.P.. for the purpose of obtaining s ONE. hotel for Char- lottetown, and later in pressing for settlement for t/wo steamers of the Northumberland Ferries. Ltd, which had been requisitfoned by the Dominion Government during the war. ‘

Up to the time of his death Mr. MacLeod was a member of tile board of directors of the YM.C.A., and chairman of its building com- mlttee. Always keenly interested in this institution. he used to take pleasure in recalling how, s: a youth in frail health, he built up a vigorous constitution by regular attendance at the “Y" gymnasium, which was the first of its kind 0n the Island. In later years he de- voted himseif wholeheartedly w “Y" campaigns for recreational and other facilities.

Hospital, Etc.

In the same spirit Mr. MacLeoll served the interests of the Prince Edward Island Hospital, being for eighteen yesrsa. member of the board of trustees, and board chat.- man during the three years‘ per-- iod ulhich sarw the present magni- ficent hospital building construct- ed. He wok an active part in estab- lishing the Tourist Association here, serving as chairman of its fin-ance committee for sev:rai years. He ulaa also a. director of the old Charlottetown Hotel Com- pany, and later of the North Shore Hotel Company and of Northumberland Ferries, Ltd.

The Protestant Orphanage was another institution which benefit- ed by Mr. Maouod’: experienise. lie and the late Mr. W. K. Rogers being responsible for organizing the drive which resulted in paying of! a debt of some $00,000 on that institution.

A lifelong L-iibcral in politics. Mr. Maclseod never sought po- litloiu honors for himself but was l. tower of strength to the party and its leaders. He was for some years president of the Queen's

hi: wise counsel and organising ability had much to do with Lib- eral successes "in the County over a period of years.

Unassuming in manner, pleasant and courteous at all times, he made friends among s11 classes and had the complete confidence of everyone who was piivileged to lmow him intimately. Advancing years seamed to have little cfieot on his constitution, whatever on his enterprising spir- it.

Veteran Traveller

In ills younger days Mr. Mac- Leod was accustomed to make two trips annually across the Atlan- tic as s buyer of good: for his firm. Usually he visited both Lon»- don and Paris on these occasions. gs was the common practice among leading merchants at that time. In ‘Maren, 1899, along with sever- ai other local buyers he left Hali- fax on the S. B. Inbrador and was shipwrecked on the northwest coast of Scotland. All the pas- senger: wm saved, but the boat went to pieces and the passengers were stranded for three days in skerryvore lighthouse.

Mr. MacLeod was bwice ma:- ricd. the first time in 195 to Miss Frances Perkins, by whom he had two children, Frances and Wil- fred Charles. Mrs. MacLeod died following their twin births. In 1913 he married Miss Elizabeth Ronda‘. Wyatt. who passed avvsy in Jan- uary. 1947.

A faithful member of the eon- gregation of Bt. James Presbyter- ian Church, Mr. Manhood at the time of his death was a member of the trustee board of the church. and also of the! session.

Ks is survived by hi: demhtsl. Mrs. H. C. Bourke, and son Wil- fred, s director of the firm cf Moore and Maelnod, to whom sincere sympathy i: attended. As announced elsewhere. the fun- eral service is bill‘ held this afternoon tom 8t. Jame: Church.
