Transciption:	JOSEPH COLEBROOK THE LATE MR COLEBROOK An old tradesman has passed away in the person of Mr. Colebrook, who for many years successfully carried on the leather cutting business in Northbrook Street, to which his son-in-law, Mr. G.M. Knight succeeded on his retirement some years since. About eight years ago Mr. Colebrook was knocked down by a passing bicycle; ever since he has been invalided, paralysis indeed following, which for two years has confined him to his room. Mr. Colebrook was especially genial, and many of his poorer neighbours will remember him for his frequent unobtrusive acts of kindness. Newbury Weekly News 20 Nov 1884
