Death David Steeves is Mourned
The death in City Hospital yesterday morning [14 Jan 1948] of David Steeves removed one of Moncton's retired pioneer merchants, one who was among the early business men on St. George street and who had contributed a great deal to the upbuilding of the central and western section of that street as a mercantile area in the city. His passing came unexpectedly following complications which developed after a fall in his home in Norwood Avenue last week when he sustained a fractured bone in one foot.
David Steeves was a native of Indian Mountain, Westmorland County, being born on November 13, 1864, a son of the late Alfred and Annie (Maddison) Steeves. He was thus in his 83rd year.
