One of the "grand old men" of Canadian Engineering and a leading figure in Canada's sport, finance and industry, Herrick Duggan died instantly of injuries received in a three-car accident near St. Jerome, Que., yesterday.

The family home was in Windsor street, then a private street, a fashionable area overlooking the harbour and enclosed by iron gates. The Duggans came to York shortly after Simcoe founded it, and had an estate up Yonge street, below Thornhill, with a mill and salmon fishery, ere the 18th century ended.

Toronto Evening Telegram, 1946
[deatails of the fatal car accident]
Herrick Duggan's figure stands high on Canada's horizon. Born in Toronto, and great grandson of that Col. Duggan whose venerable figure is seen in the early photograph of the last muster of Toronto veterans of the War of 1812, he did more for this country than even his valiant ancestor.
