From Louise Hall:
John Minter Hall Jr. lost his savings in the 1910 collapse of the Charing Cross Bank. At that time my grandfather, John Chapman Hall had a choice between going to India as a tea planter or coming to Canada. He chose Canada because it was easier for John Minter to join him at a later date. Therefore, my grandfather sailed to Canada in 1911 on the Teutonic. He settled for a short time in Winnipeg, Manitoba before marrying and moving to the Toronto, Ontario area. I live in
