Lighthall, W. D. (William Douw), 1857-1954 : William Douw Lighthall, born in Hamilton, Ontario, was educated at McGill University. He practised law until 1944. Lighthall was mayor of the Town of Westmount from 1900 to 1902, founded the Union of Canadian Municipalities in 1901, served as school commissioner and as a trustee of the Montreal Public Library, and was a commissioner for the Metropolitan Parks Commission of Montreal. Lighthall was also a charter member and president of the Canadian Authors' Association, an originator of the Society of Canadian Literature, and a member of a number of other literary societies. In 1902, he was elected to the Royal Society, and served as its president, 1917-1918.

His non-fiction writings include historical sketches such as "Montreal After Two Hundred and Fifty Years" (1892), "An Account of the Battle of Chateauguay" (1889), and "Thomas Pownell - His Part in the Conquest of Canada" (1904), as well as philosophical works such as "Sketch of the New Utilitarianism" (1887), "Canada: A Modern Nation" (1904), and "Superpersonalism: The Outer Consciousness, A Biological Entity" (1926). As well, he also wrote historical romances. In addition to compiling a collection of his own verse "Old Measures", Lighthall contributed poems to several anthologies and edited two volumes of poetry.
