During the many years that he has served the City of Halifax he has endeared himself to all with whom he came in contact, and the present high stand which we hold in the transit industry in this country is due in great part of gentlemen of his calibre.
  The above newspaper article has his middle initial as "G." while in fact is was "C." for Clarence. Also his first name is spelled as "Louis" where it should be spelled as "Lewis" which is on his gravestone. The use of the spelling his first name as "Louis" may have come from his wife who was Acadian and may have used the French spelling. (James A. Hubley, grandson)
