Hopewell Hill (Albert Co.) Dec. 24 - The death occurred yesterday at Riverside of George WALTON, who had been ill for some time past of chronic stomach trouble. Mr. Walton was one of the most widely known millmen in this county. In his earlier years he engaged extensively in lumbering and milling operations at various points along the north shore of the bay and later had control of the mills at the Hill, now owned by Kinnie & Co. on Sawmill Creek. He was considered one of the most expert millers in this section. The deceased was about 60 years of age and leaves a widow, one daughter and five sons, two of the latter now residing on the Pacific coast.
