Transciption: | CHARLES CAMP DEATH OF MR. CHARLES CAMP A GENIAL PERSONALITY We regret to record the death of Mr. Charles Camp, which occurred on Friday at his residence in Northbrook street, Newbury. Mr. Camp who would have been 86 years of age next month, had a most genial disposition. He was liked by all and had not a single enemy in the world. He was always the same, with a beaming smile and a cheery word for everyone. Mr. Camp, who was born in Devonshire, like is brother, the late Mr. Alfred Camp, had all the charm and great-hearted qualities traditionally associated with the men of the West country. As a young man he was a fine athlete. He trained to the hilt, and in addition to becoming an expert gymnast at tight rope walking. He was about to represent his country in athletic competitions with Germany, when his health gave way, and with his wife he went to Australia to recuperate. Upon returning to his native country, he opened a drapery business in South Devon, and 32 years ago joined his brother at the Drapery Bazaar, Northbrook-street, remaining in active harness until his last illness. He was married 51 years ago, and is survived by his wife and two sons, one of whom is in America. The funeral took place on Monday afternoon at the Newtown-road Cemetery, the Rev. John Wilding, B.A., Congregational Minister, officiating. The family mourners were Mr. Arthur Camp (son), Mr. H. Camp and Mr. S. Paddison (nephews), Mr. F.C. Hopson, Mr. J.L. Ward, Mr. Paul Hopson, Mr. D.F. Laine, Miss Tennant, Messrs George Wintle, G. Johns, H. Beasley, C. Withers, J. Potter and R. A. Boden.
