Death of Mr. F. O. Clarke.

| Transciption: | The distressing bereavement sustained by the Rev. F. W. and Mrs. Clarke, in the death of their only son, Mr. Frederick Owen Clarke, in South America, who has succumbed to an attack of typhoid fever, has awakened sincere and sorrowful sympathy in the town. The deceased, who was an electrical engineer, went out to manage newly installed machinery at a sugar refinery near Valparaiso, and was married to a Dublin young lady about six months later. The circumstances of the bereavement are therefore rendered the more pathetic and distressing. At present the only information to hand is that contained in the cablegram, and particulars are awaited by the next mail. In order to relieve Mr Clarke, the deacons of the Congregational Church made other arrangements for the services on Sunday last, which were taken by Mr Haile, a student from Mansfield College, Oxford. |
