    John W. Taylor

    Harvey Station, York Co., June 16 -- This community was grieved to hear of the death on June 10 at Saint John of John W. Taylor, a life-long resident of Harvey Station.   Mr Taylor was 67 years of age and had been in failing health for a number of years.   For over three years, he was a hospital patient at Saint John.   Two sisters survive, Mrs Thomas J. Walthall, San Antonio, Texas, and Mrs David G. Taylor, of San Antonio and Harvey Station.

    Mr Taylor was a member of St. Andrew's United Church, being an elder up to the time of his illness, also clerk of the Session for many years.   He was a staunch supporter of the church in all its activities.   He was also an official of St. James' United Church, Harvey Station, for 30 years or more.

    The body was brought from Saint John on Sunday afternoon to Harvey Station, where service was held in St. James' United Church.   Rev. J. F. MacKay, McAdam, conducted the service, assisted by Rev. G. Knight.   Messrs. Coburn, Dorcas, Cougle and Robison sang as a quartette "We Are Going Down the Valley One by One."

    The pallbearers were Andrew Herbert, Andrew McCulloch, Matthew Lister, Edward and Fred Atchison and Wilmot Tracey.   The floral tributes were numerous and beautiful.   Interment was in the Harvey cemetery.   Relatives from outside points attending were Mr and Mrs Edward Atchison, Mr and Mrs Fred Atchison and Mrs Elmer Weston and son, all of Houlton, Me.
