William Bennett

From Memorials of Liverpool....second edition, revised, with additions.

In September of this year (1885) died Mr. William Bennett, who, as Councillor and afterwards as Alderman, had been a member of the Liverpool Council for many years. During the controversy of Pike- v. Well-water he was the stoutest and most preserving of the sandstone party. His was one of those pertinacious natures who never know when they are beaten. That, however, did not prevent his being, in private life, one of the kindest and genial of companions.
