In November 1896, when William McIlwraith's partnership with S. W. Hartley ended, John Blair became joint proprietor of The Morning Bulletin with McIlwraith. When Blair died, the Dunn family, headed by Andrew Dunn (Snr) bought a controlling interest in the paper. Dunn installed his eldest son, Andrew Dunn (Jnr) as editor, and third son William Dunn as chief-of-staff. After WWII, Dunn's second son, James McIntyre Dunn became business manager.
