Does anyone remember Bruce Rupert Taylor – years ago, he worked for the Montreal Herald and the Gazette under a by-line called Montreal-by-night? He also worked as a court reporter.
He would be approximately 85 years old today, and my father was wondering if he was still in Montreal as they were friends as children and young men. Thanks alot!
