WARDEN served in Oxford politics for quarter century
By John TAPLEY, Sun Media, Thurs., January 17, 2008
Ingersoll -- Oxford County will bid farewell today to a longtime
politician, businessperson and war veteran.
Former mayor Jack
WARDEN died Sunday at Parkwood Hospital in
London. He was 87.
"He was a very caring person," said Ted
HUNT who served with
WARDEN on Ingersoll town council during the late 1960s. "If he
had an issue, he would stand firm with it. He was easy to work
with, congenial and willing to listen."
WARDEN was a good businessperson who always had Ingersoll at
heart and was interested in people, says
HUNT, a former Ingersoll
chief administrative officer.
WARDEN was a flight lieutenant with the Royal Air Force in the
Second World War and a life member of Royal Canadian Legion Branch 119,
helping organize Ingersoll's annual Battle of Britain Parade
and Remembrance Day services.
For years, he operated
WARDEN
Appliances in downtown Ingersoll.
A former mayor of Ingersoll and a county councillor, he was involved
in municipal politics for 25 years. The council chamber at the
Town Centre is named in his honour.
Included in a long list of community involvement are terms on
both public and separate school boards, Alexandra hospital board,
Ingersoll Chamber of Commerce, the Business Improvement Area
and the town's police services board.
Former mayor Michael
HENNESSY, a councillor when
WARDEN was mayor,
says WARDEN always followed his beliefs.
"He was a good man,"
Predeceased by his wife, Bernadette,
WARDEN is survived by six
children, nine grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
A funeral mass will be held at Sacred Heart Roman Catholic Church
in Ingersoll today at 11 a.m.

WARDROBE o@ca.on.york_county.toronto.globe_and_mail 2008-07-11 published
Accidental mining engineer replaced his pickax with a pen
Told by his father to study mining, he became devoted to it and
became publisher of The Northern Miner, where he suffered undeserved
criticism during the Windfall scandal of 1964
By Gay ABBATE,
Page S8
Toronto -- Maurice (Mort)
BROWN was tricked into a career in
mining. He had been accepted to study forestry at the University
of Toronto - or so he thought. Unbeknownst to him, his father
had changed the application form to mining engineering, which
he thought would provide a better future. He didn't tell his
son until five minutes before he was to hop on the train for
the long trip south from his home in Port Arthur.
"I screamed and hollered and was in tears, but there was nothing
I could do," recalled Mr.
BROWN, whose career in mining spanned
more than five decades, taking him from the mines of Northern
Ontario to the office towers of downtown Toronto and beyond.
In the process, he replaced the pickax with a pen, chronicling
major developments in the mining industry and the people who
mattered in it.
He quickly came to love everything about mining, becoming the
industry's biggest booster. "He had great enthusiasm for all
things mining and all the people in it," said Stan
HAWKINS, a
friend for more than 40 years.
Mr. BROWN's greatest legacy to the industry may be the creation
of the Canadian Mining Hall of Fame, in 1988, to honour those
who contribute to and promote mining. The United States had its
own hall of fame, and Mr.
BROWN was anxious to establish one
in Canada. It took many years of perseverance in the face of
skepticism, but he realized his dream. The hall is located in
the mining building at the University of Toronto, and Mr.
BROWN
served as the hall's chairman for its first four years. The night
he himself was inducted as a member in 1993, he described mining
as a "dirty, nasty industry that demands hard work" - but he
would do it all over again if he could.
The low point of his career took place decades earlier, at the
time of the so-called Windfall scandal. On the day the scandal
broke and he discovered that several people whom he had trusted
had betrayed him, "his hair turned white literally overnight,"
said his daughter, Sandra
PULEY. "He was devastated. It was a
horrible, horrible time."
It was the summer of 1964, and Mr.
BROWN, then an assistant editor
at the weekly Northern Miner, wrote a favourable article about
a potential discovery in a mine owned by Viola and George
MacMILLAN,
a couple he considered good Friends. The
MacMILLANs had drilled
holes on property near Timmins, Ontario, near a site where a
rich lode of copper had been discovered by another company the
previous year. Rumours of another lode drove the stock of Windfall
Oil and Mines Ltd. from 56 cents to $5.70 in a matter of weeks.
But while the company's value continued to rise, purely on speculation,
the MacMILLANs refused to announce their test results. The bubble
burst when they finally disclosed that there were no metal deposits
on the site. Thousands of investors lost everything.
The
Ontario government called a royal commission and Mr.
BROWN,
among others, was called to testify. He told the inquiry that
his positive article was based in part on an interview with Ontario's
minister of mines, George
WARDROBE, who tried to shift the blame
onto Mr. BROWN when he took the stand.
Mr. BROWN described his numerous unsuccessful attempts to get
a straight answer about the test results from both the mines
minister and Mrs.
MacMILLAN, a leader in the mining industry.
Mr. BROWN was accused of profiting from buying Windfall stock.
He did make $4,471, but told the inquiry that he also lost $5,578
trading stocks in other
MacMILLAN-owned companies. And there
was no policy at The Northern Miner forbidding him from buying
shares in companies on which the paper reported. "They expect
us to use discretion. They would take a dim view of any heavy
trading," he told the inquiry.
Maurice BROWN, known as Mort, was the fourth of six children
to William and Georgia
BROWN of Port Arthur, now Thunder Bay.
William BROWN worked on ships and was on the Noronic, a tour
ship that sailed the Great Lakes, when it caught fire in Toronto
Harbour on September 17, 1949. One hundred and eighteen of the
525 passengers perished. William
BROWN saved countless lives
by spraying people with water so they could run through the flames
to safety.
After graduating from university in 1938, Mort
BROWN went to
work as an engineer at a gold mine near Geraldton, north of Lake
Superior. He worked at other facilities, eventually becoming
a mine manager. A year after graduation, he married Margaret
GREEN, a young woman he had met one summer when she was a teenager.
In 1947, Mr.
BROWN was hired as mining instructor at Lakehead
Technical Institute in Thunder Bay to develop its mining curriculum.
He was still an undergraduate when his interest was first piqued
by The Northern Miner. He became fascinated by a major find at
the Little Long Lac gold mine in Geraldton, and spent hours reading
accounts of it. His interest in the paper would forever change
his career path.
In his final year at university, Mr.
BROWN, as president of the
university's mining and metallurgical society, invited one of
the paper's writers to address the students. Mr.
BROWN was so
excited by the speaker that he informed him he intended to join
the paper's editorial staff one day. While working after graduation,
Mr. BROWN submitted many articles to the Miner, each one accompanied
by a job request. He finally received the call in 1949 and moved
his young family to Toronto, the paper's headquarters. He worked
his way up to assistant editor and then, on his 65th birthday,
was named editor. He became publisher in 1985 and publisher emeritus
two years later, not retiring until his 80th birthday in 1992.
During his 43 years at the paper, Mr.
BROWN visited every mine
in Canada and many others around the world, including the United
States, Finland, the Caribbean and South America. In August,
1973, during a trip to Costa Rica to visit an old gold mine,
he became deathly ill with a lung infection. Upon his return
to Toronto, doctors diagnosed histoplasmosis, an infection caused
by fungi from bat dung. He was placed in an oxygen tent. "We
almost lost him," said son Russell
BROWN.
With his lungs permanently
damaged, he was given a pension. However, he returned to his
job at the paper and never allowed the disability to get in his
way, his son said.
What finally did slow him down, however, was the death of his
wife in 1998. They had been married for 59 years.
Otherwise, Mr.
BROWN was renowned for his enthusiasm for life,
which occasionally went too far. "He was foolhardy and reckless
at times," said his daughter. "He always went with his heart
instead of his head. He went feet first into situations." Such
as the time, in his 70s, when he climbed a tree with a running
chainsaw. He fell and broke his arm. Or the time he went camping
with a brand-new car, a new tent and new stove. He set up camp
next to a dead tree, which he thought would make a good fire.
He cut the tree and, of course, it fell on the stove, the tent
and the car roof. There was also the time he went into the car
wash with all the windows open. But he was always able to laugh
at himself because he knew it was his own fault, said Nean
ALLMAN,
a former colleague and now co-ordinator of the Canadian Mining
Hall of Fame.
Ms. ALLMAN has her own story. She arrived at work one Monday
morning to find a brown bag on her desk. Inside was a headless
duck Mr. BROWN had shot on his latest hunting trip. "I knew you
liked a challenge. I thought you'd like to pluck it and cook
it," he told her with a twinkle in his eye. She did as he suggested.
It was a very tasty meal, she said.
Maurice (Mort)
BROWN was born November 11, 1912, in Port Arthur
(Thunder Bay), Ontario He died June 24, 2008, of cancer at Freeport
Hospital in Kitchener, Ontario He was 95. He is survived by son
Russell, daughter Sandra
PULEY, three grandchildren and four
great-grandchildren. He is also survived by brother Burton and
sister Audrey.

Doug▼"
Peacefully at his home in Dartmouth, Nova Scotia on Tuesday,
January 15, 2008. Doug Markle in his 74th year. Loving husband
of Joan MARKLE (née
WARK,) beloved father of Jane (Rick
WEBER,)
Gary and Paula. Cherished grandfather of Keelan
WEBER. Dear brother
of Wendy MARKLE and Sue
MOGELIN.
Doug▼ was always ready to hike,
bike, canoe, sail, wind surf, ski, photograph, paint or otherwise
engage in the natural world. He experienced profound joy by recreating
in it, encouraging others to share with him in the experience.
Among his fondest memories were the summers he spent at Young
Men's Christian Association Camp Pine Crest, in Muskoka, Ontario.
The experience instilled in him a lifelong passion for the environment,
and constant desire to join with others to speak as one voice
in support of it. He will be greatly missed by his many Friends
and fellow naturalists. If desired, donations may be made to
the Ecology Action Centre, 1568 Argyle Street, Halifax, Nova Scotia
B3J 2B3. According to Doug's wishes a memorial service will be
held this summer in Ontario.
