		Timothy Eaton is never really treated here as a rounded personality and such important concerns as his family life and his religious beliefs are surprisingly neglected.
		On the contribution of Timothy Eaton as an ''entrepreneur,' Santink is equally unforthcoming, offering only such circuitous comments as ''by his decisions and his actions, he set in motion a chain of events that actively combined with and took advantage of other forces emerging in the market-place" (254).
		Because Dr Santink seems wedded to the idea that Eaton's was ''his' department store, she neglects the fact that Timothy Eaton was, by the early-1890s, clearly withdrawing from a business that had simply outgrown him.

		Timothy instilled a pride in his employees, although he was quick to fire anyone who drank, swore, or smoked on duty.

		(Eaton had converted to Methodism in 1858.) However, any hopes for expansion in St Marys were restricted by limited growth in a centre served by numerous general stores, and in December 1868 the Eaton brothers’ partnership was dissolved.
		Although Eaton strongly opposed trade unions, and he faced strikes on different occasions in his departments, it seems likely that the growth of these organizations during the 1880s and the expressed concern of the provincial government about working conditions also influenced company policy.
		Since Eaton was wholly occupied in the operation of his store, he seldom participated in other commercial activities, though he was elected a director of the Dominion Bank in 1899.
