C.
C. Whalen Dead
Mr. C. C. Whalen, an
organizer of the High Court for Central Ontario of Independent Order
of Foresters, and former resident of Waterford, died at Grace
Hospital in Toronto, Tuesday morning.
He was stricken with
paralysis at Owen Sound a few days ago while addressing a court of
the order in that town. Last week he was brought to Toronto and
taken to Grace Hospital. The shock deprived him of the power of
speech, and from the first his condition was regarded as hopeless.
Everything possible was done to restore him, but medical efforts
were in vain. His wife and daughter were at his bedside when he
passed away.
Mr. Whalen was 48 years of
age. For several years past he had been engaged in organization work
with the Independent Order of Foresters, and his labors were
[marked] with success. His service as organizer were in almost
constant demand and his success was in no small degree due to his
untiring energy and enthusiasm. His loss will be deeply felt by
Foresters.
