He is a jeweler by trade and one of the most respected citizens of the town. Outside of it his twgLSqns are probably more famous than he has been hitherto, as they are well known players of the champion lacrosse team of Canada. Mi\T5lfford has the record of never having been defeated in any contest and has done gocd s.-rvice as an alderman and trustee. He has been repeatedly asked to run as mayor of the city and is recognized as an invaluable man of business on committees and in the council. As regards the interests of the constituency the people of the city are all satisfied that a wise choice has been made. Socially Mr. Gifford is intencely popular. Of all social gatherings iu connection with the Presbyterian church of which he is an active member and other organizations, he is the very life and soul. In manner he is direct and unassuming.
