fully 400 persons.

Wingham Chronicle and Manning River Observer 19 March 1898
Mr. Lobban was 60 years of age. He
has been engaged in agricultural and
pastoral pursuits in the Manning dis
trict for many years, and successfully,
too, until the time of the great depres
sion that so materially affected property
holders, banks, and business generally.
Intelligent perseverance was bettering
the position when Mr. Lobban was
struck down by illness. He leaves a
widow and 8 children to mourn their
loss, besides many other relatives.
His brother, Mr. A. Lobban, Inspector
of Schools, for the Clarence River

ningites. A daughter of the late Mr.
D. J. Lobban is assistant teacher at
the Wingham Public School ; another
daughter is in the Telegraph Office,
another daughter is married to Mr. J.
W. Hodgins, Post and Telegraph Mas

married to Mr. J. C. Duff, of Somer
set (Woodside). The family of Mr.
Lobban are connected by marriage
with several of the most respected
families in the district. The funeral
took place at the Bight Cemetery on
Thursday afternoon. There was a very
large attendance. The Revs. S, P.
Stewart and J. H. Terras were pre
sent. Mr. Terras read portion of
