llr. B. King Farrow, Iiho Was

Here Buying Army Horses in |9l6, Dies While Shaving.

Many relatives and friends in P. E.

Island will be very sorry to learn of the sudden death nt his home in Ot- tawa last Wednesday of Mr. R. King Farrow, a native of Bedeque in this Province. He dropped dead in the bath room of his residence, while in _the act of shaving. Mr. Farrow was 58 years of age, had been ailing with heart trouble for a considerable time alld ot’ late had sui’t’ered"acutely. He wlls in good spirits when he arose that morning and stated tllat he had it fillc nil:ht’s‘ rest. Being a member of the military exemption board Mr. Farrow was preparing to leave to attend to his duties when death came.

The late Mr. Farrow will be re-

membered by many here. He was one of a party of gentlemen who visit-nl P. E. Island in November. 1916. to purchase remounts for the French army, and while on the Island visited his native place at Bedellue, which he left 37 years before. or when he was only 18 years of ago. He made u pre- vious visit to the island 20 years ago. He has several cousins residing in Bedeque, and Mr. Frank Farrow. fur- merly of Charlottetown. no\v residing in Calgary, is another and Messrs. B. C.'Webs`ter. of Cornwall and Frank Webster of Cleveland are nephews. Tile Ottawa Journal says:

Few residents ot’ Ottawa, perhaps.

were more widely known than Mr. Farrow_ who was of zl. genial and kind- ly disposition. and wllo figured prom- inently in business circles i`or many years. He always \voro u sunny smile and hall a word for everybody. li" was an enthusiastic -supporter und active worker in the recent election for Union Government and was for many years a worker in the Conserva- tive Association. For the past few years ho had been in the real estate business and handled considerable property in Western Canada, as well as in Ottawa and district. He was it director oi’ the Britannia Highlands Realty Company. Previous to this. liir. Farrow was tho eastern represen- tative of the Massey-Harris Company for many years.

Mr. Farrow~ represented Wellington Ward in tho City Council for ll. num~. ber of years, and was always active in civic affairs. He was it member ol the Masonic Order and of the Odd Fellows, and also took an active in- terest in -sports. being al member of lawn bowling and curling cillbs of the Capital. As a member of the trustee boardoi’ St. Ptl.ul's Methodist Church he took an active interest in the work of that body. He was an enthusiastic motorist and a nlember of the Ottnwll' Motor Club.

Mrs. Farrow, one son and one

daughter survive. The son, Captain Earl Farrow, is at present ou ll visit to his uncle, J. S. Farrow, in Los Angeles, California. Capt. Farrow. who was In tho Royal Air Force, was overseas for some time and was later recalled as an instructor in aviation at the Dunwoody Institute in Minnea- polls.
