Although in failing health for the past 17 years, Mr. Robertson had maintained a vital intere st in both church and municipal affairs.
He was a lifelong member of the Church of England and at various times served as both rector' s and people's warden of Trinity Anglican Church.

The service end of the business was taken care (of) by Robert Burns in the b uilding recently vacated by Langley Cleaners on Third street West.
The business was originally carried on under the name of A.C. Robertson, but was reorganize d later under its present name so that those associated with and employed in the business mig ht have a more definite interest in it.
The late Walter L. Rombough became a partner in the business and others of the staff a financ ial interest.
In order to enter the RAF in World War I, Mr. Robertson sold his business to the late H.B. Fe tterly, a former school teacher and later Dundas public school inspector. On his return fro m overseas, Mr. Robertson took over his former business and retained control until his heath.
