At the very early age
of 29 years, Dr. Howard York, formerly resident surgeon at the Toronto
Western Hospital, died at the home of his father, Lieut.-Col.
I. E.
York, Waterford, on Sunday, October 22nd.
The
late Dr. York graduated in medicine at the Toronto University, attended
McGill University, Montreal, and served one year at Toronto Western
Hospital. He afterwards
graduated from the medical department of Columbia University, New York,
and was engaged in post-graduate work in New York hospitals when he
became the victim of heart trouble.
His
father went to New York a short time ago and brought Howard home and
everything possible was done to bring about a recovery, but of no avail.
The
doctor was a brilliant student and possessed a very bright and amiable
disposition, and consequently was very much beloved by many friends.
The
funeral, under Masonic auspices, took place Wednesday at 2 p.m. The
sorrowing parents and one brother, Gordon, of Chicago, have the
heartfelt sympathy of their many friends.
