BX October 16, 1919

A returned soldier, who came to Brantford about four months ago and opened a grocery store on Rawdon Street, passed away yesterday at the hospital very suddenly of heart failure, in the person of Thomas William Graham, who moved to Brantford from New Brunswick. He was a young man, only 46 years of age, and the sad part of his death lies in the fact that he leaves a wife and five small children to mourn his loss. The funeral will be held on Thursday from his residence, 330 Rawdon Street, to Mount Hope cemetery.
