The TALES you probably never heard about

HENRY MAXWELL ROOT

[Welland Telegraph, 29 March 1907]

The tragic death of Fonthill’s esteemed merchant and townsman, Max Root, has cast a gloom over our village, as Max was well and favourably known to us all. Apparently the bacilli of self-destruction had advanced to that stage where death was the only possible means to rid life of the disease. The funeral on Monday was largely attended and the solely bereaved family have the heartfelt sympathy of the whole township.
