Summerside paper, from PEI Ancestry:
Mrs. L. R. Allen left on Monday, for Tofield, Atla., where she will visit her brother, Mr. George Brace, who recently was quite ill. (1922) Word was received in Summerside on Friday, that Mr. Geo. Brace, formerly of this town, had undergone a successful operation for appendicitis in Edmonton on Friday. (1922). The guardian newspaper had several social notes about George's visits to PEI.
One source said that George was the Mayor of Tofield, and in the history for that area he was named as a Councillor. There was one note in the Guardian where he was identified as Mayor.
