The Village Overseer will make the rounds of the Village during the early weeks of the month of May next. His passing at this time of year when an early summer has all the beauty and promise of God’s land, seems to symbolize the h0pe and strength he imparted to all about him. At the funeral service held on 'Monday afternoon from All Saints Church, the largest attendance ever witnessed here paid tribute. ‘ Please be ready with the re- quired amount when he calls. To Dr. Lockhart the medical pro- fession was a sacred trust and in the fulfilment of that trust he spar- ed himself nothing. Out of the rich- ness of his high ideals and frOm his great understanding heal-t, his in- fluence has become deeply rooted in the minds and hearts of the people. This influence is an institution, as it were, founded upon a roek which cannot be destroyed. The Doctor was born in Sydenham, near Kingston and received his degree at Queen’s University. In London, England he graduated from two hospitals an;r also took a special course in a hos- pital in Vienna, Austria. He was leader of the North York Conserva- tive Association for 25 years until a. few years ago; he was a Medical Health Officer for King- Township for many years; a member of the Masonic and Oddlfellow Orders, and he was a member and fonmer ward- en of All Saints’.Anglican Church at King. The Doetor was always an inspired and! loyal Britisher. The Union Jack draped the casket as one of his last requests. His love of nature and flowers afforded him many restful moments, as the beauty of the grounds surrounding his home give evidence. 7 The amount of tax is as fol- lows:â€" Dogs kept by the same individâ€" ual, one male dog . . .. $2.00 Each additional male dog $4.00 One female dog . . . . . . . . $5.00 Each additional female dog . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . $8.00 Richmond Hill, Apr. 24, 1941.
