Melrose was among those who established the Winnipeg Real Estate Exchange.[1] In 1897 Thomson Beattie moved to Winnipeg and partnered with Waugh to open Haslam Land Co. Beattie would died on the sinking of the Titanic in 1912.[3][4] His municipal political career included serving on city council, chairing the city's Parks Board from 1904 to 1908, then as Winnipeg's Controller from 1909 to 1911 before his first term as Mayor in 1912. He especially called for the development of municipal playgrounds while mayor.[1] Waugh was particularly noted for his participation in curling and served as president of the Manitoba Curling Association and Winnipeg's Granite Curling Club.[1] Following the Treaty of Versailles, Waugh became a member of the commission which oversaw the Saarland region while its coal resources were shipped to France. Waugh resigned from the Saarland Commission due to his disagreements with the group's activities.[1] Today, his name is commemorated in Winnipeg as Waugh Road.[5] References1. ^1 2 3 4 {{cite web | title=Richard Deans Waugh (1868-1938) | url=http://www.mhs.mb.ca/docs/people/waugh_rd.shtml | publisher=Manitoba Historical Society | date=2008-05-02 | accessdate=2009-01-19 }} {{Mayor of Winnipeg}}{{Use dmy dates|date=September 2010}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Waugh, Richard Deans}}{{Manitoba-mayor-stub}}2. ^{{cite web | url=http://www.winnipeg.ca/Services/CityLife/HistoryOfWinnipeg/MayorsPastPresent.stm | publisher=City of Winnipeg | accessdate=2009-01-12 | title=City Government: Mayors, Past and Present | deadurl=yes | archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20081225130928/http://www.winnipeg.ca/Services/CityLife/HistoryOfWinnipeg/MayorsPastPresent.stm | archivedate=25 December 2008 | df=dmy-all }} 3. ^{{cite journal|title=Thomson Beattie - 16 Apr 1912, Tue • Page 1|journal=The Winnipeg Tribune|date=1912|page=1|url=https://www.newspapers.com/clip/14146640/the_winnipeg_tribune/|accessdate=2 October 2017}} 4. ^{{cite book|last1=Bumsted|first1=J.
