At least it is to be hoped that the Mark- ham results will prove to he a little better than Vaughan Town- ship results. We were sorry to hear of the sudden death of Mr. George Wil- liams, candidate for School Trus- tee of Markham School Area 1, and sympathy is extended to his family. As a result of Mr. Will- iams' death, the voting for the school trustees has been delayed until a further nomination meet- ing can be planned.
