OBITUARY: James Lemuel Dowe
Windsor, September 17 - A well-known Hantsport barber, James Lemuel Dowe of
William Street, Hantsport, died today at the Eastern Kings Memorial
Hospital, Wolfville, at the age of 74 years. The son of the late Samuel and
Matilda Dowe of Port Greville, Cumberland County, he lived there until 1933

of his life, he became a member in 1919 at Advocate Harbour, Cumberland
County. He was also a member of the Baptist Church at Port Greville. He
followed the barbering trade for over 40 years before retiring last year
from the business he established in Hantsport 20 odd years ago. Besides his

Conrad, Wolfville; and Lawrence, Oshawa, Ont. The remains are resting at
