In 1906, Mr. Gordin offered him the appointment of deputy treasurer, which position he has ever since filled to the great delight of his chief and to the entire satisfactoin of all who have business in the office of the county treasurer. Mr. Burnham is married and with his wife resides in London. He is regarded as among the promising young men of the city, affable, popular, energetic; enjoying the confidence and esteem of all, his future is indeed bright.
