DEATH INFORMATION: Obituary from The Globe (Toronto, York County, Ontario, Canada) Friday, December 3, 1926, page 17: J. J. WHITE. Orangeville, Dec 2, - *Special.) - An outstanding citizen of this town in the person of J. J. White passed suddenly away this morning at his residence on Forest Street. For some time he had been a sufferer from heart trouble. Yesterday, while engaged in electioneering he collapsed on Broadway, falling into the arms of Telford S. Parkinson. Removed to his residence he rallied, and it was thought he would recover, but a second attack this morning proved fatal. The late Mr. White was born in Albion Township, near here 63 years ago, being a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. John White, who were among the first settlers of the district. The family moved to Mono Township when Mr. White was an infant and after he attained manhood he farmed until 1889, when he came to this town as an agent for Massey Harris Company. In 1898 he was appointed a general agent and removed to Guelph. Severing his connection with that company in 1908, he returned to Orangeville. He saw the great opportunities of Western Canada and entered the real estate business when the boom was on. Since his return here he had been a moving spirit in any movement that would benefit the town , and served many years in the local Counel as Councillor, Deputy Reeve and Reeve. In politics, he was a staunch Conservative, and in religion an adherent of St. Andrew's United Church. Much of his time was devoted to fraternal societies, he being a member of L.O.L., No. 2931 Royal Black Knights of Ireland, I.O.O.F. and Harris Lodge, No. 216, A. F. and A. M.
