N. R 'death has removed a popular figure 'in William O'Brien, whose death oe- 'eurred in Detroit on Saturday after. ,noon. It is just a little more than six years since Mr. O'Brien retired from the active life of the railway to enter, upon a more quiet life made happy by the knowledge of tasks well done, The Deceased' was a true son 6f- Stratford, having been born here and spending the greater part of his life i here. In Octob of 1876 he entered © the service of the old Grand Trunk" Railway asa cleaner and machinists helper. He spent three years in the ;roundhouse at that work and in Oc: |tober of 1879 won promotion to fire 1 man on the run between here and Point Edward. In 1880 the old wood- burning engines gave way to coal burners and Mr. O'Brien continued as \fireman out of Stratford until 1888. In that year, he took up his position at -- 'the throttle of a freight engine. For the next nine years he guided freight and passenger trains before being as signed to a regular passenger run in- 1907. For many years, he was the po- pular engineer on the "Stratford-Buff alo run. During his years of service on the road, Mr. O'Brien took a keen interest © 'in brotherhood work among rail workers, so it was only natural that upon his retirement from active ser- vice, he took a leading part in the or- ganization of the Stratford C. N. R. : Veterans' Association. In religion, he - was a devout Roman Catholic, a mem- ber of Immaculate Conception Church and identified with Kilroy Council, Knights of Columbus.
