ROBERT BEATTY (BEATTIE)
[Welland-Port Colborne Evening Tribune, 19 March 1947]
Robert Beatty, 65, veteran, Ontario hotelman, who ran hotels at Welland, Fort Erie and other points during his long career, died suddenly there yesterday at his home 245 Phipps street. Mr. Beatty who operated the Dexter House in Welland for a number of years, came to Fort Erie thirty years ago, to purchase the Barnea House.
He had retired from active work about five years ago, due to his health. Death was due to heart failure. Mr. Beatty, native of Seaforth, Ont., was prominent in athletic activities, having been president of the Fort Erie Baseball Association on several occasions. He was an ardent fan known in many Niagara District centres, and took a very serious interest in the Niagara District Senior baseball league. His wife survives.
