_ In Memoriam

MR. JOSEPH H. GALLANT

It was with much regretthatthe people of the Colville Road and the surrounding districts learned that Joseph H. Gallant had passed away at his home on Dec. 17th last. Of recent years, owing to an impaired condition of the heart, the deceas- ed was compelled to restrict his activities and to conserve his failing strength; and all hoped that, by thus following the regimen laid down by his family doctor he might enjo much longer the results of a llfethne of labor. But during the latter part of 1939, his condition became worse, complication set in, and on the above-mentioned {date he passed away, after having been administered the lest rltcs 0i’ the Catholic Church by his pastor, Rev. AL. Herreli. The late Mr. Gallant was born in South Rustic on April 17, 1869, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Leo Gel- lant, and was one of a family of eight children. As s. young man he moved to the New Glasgow Road to engage in farming and in 1884 he married Annie Wickham of that place. Seven years later. with his wife and family he went to the Colville Road to settle on what was known as the Dixon property, and here by unremitting toil he soon proved himself to be one of the most progressive ferm- crs of the community. It can truly be said that his two most outstanding traits were frank- ness and hospltableness: In dealing with his fellow-men, whether in business or otherwlse.he was always open and above-board. for deceit- iufness had no place in his char- acter. His jovial nature and cheery outlook on life, apparent at any

time, were most noticeable 1n the enjoyment he derived from me company of others and in the uuirm welcome he extended to visitors in his home. Besides his sci-rowing widow he will be mourned by one son and one daughter, John W., at home and Mrs. Anthony Clarkln of North Wiltshtre; and by one brother and one sister, John of Hartford. Conn. and Mrs. Peter Doucette of Cym- bria, this province. Another son, James, died eight years ago. i-Ie will also be greatly missed by his ten grandchildren. 0f these, six spent their chlldhool with ivui, and the memory of his companion- ship and understanding will tn- doubtedl be one of the fondcst recollectlbns of their younger (luvs.

May he rest in peace.
