JOHN ROSE


  A celebrity died in the Workhouse on Thursday, in the person of John Rose,  He was better known as "Johnto" but why and wherefore is not clear.

"Johnto" carried a precarious living in former years by carrying a baked potato-can or hawking fish and fruit. "Johnto" sought refuge in the Workhouse when he grew too old to work hard, and found delight in a little mild speculation at dominoes for imaginary sums.

 

Occasionally he would come down town, not always to his own benefit or the pleasure of well-meaning friends. The well-ordered diet and discipline of the Workhouse enabled him to live to the age of 72.
