In Memoriam
Died, at his home on Alice
Street, Waterford, on Sunday night, 13 Nov 1921, William Caldwell,
aged 68 years.
Mr. Caldwell was born at
Lakefield, Ontario, and for a time lived at Kinmount. Coming to
Waterford in 1903, he commenced in business as proprietor of the
Caldwell House where he has been at home in a very real way to his

homelike character. Gracious, kind, quiet and genial to stranger,
friend and loved one, he will long remain a cherished memory to all
who knew him.
