| | Guardian | John Edward Taylor, owner and editor, dies |
 | | It is not merely a personal loss which we today lament in the death of Mr John Edward Taylor, the honoured head of this paper. |
 | | So much we may perhaps be allowed to say, not in self-praise, for it may well be that performance has not kept pace with promise, but in justice to one who in life was content to ask for no public recognition, but who in death should not be denied his due. |
 | | Mr Taylor's influence upon his paper was, it is true, mainly indirect, but it was none the less constant and real. |
