THE LATE MRS CHIVERS
The death occurred on Monday last of Mrs Eva Chivers, of 63 Cheap Street. She was the window of Mr Arthur James Chivers, who died in 1897. He was a successful builder, and had much to do with the development of the West Fields suburb. Since his death, the business has been carried on by Mrs Chivers, latterly in conjunction with her son. In the autumn of 1919, her health began to fail, and during the later part of the present year she has been quite an invalid. The funeral takes place at the Old Cemetery today (Thursday) at 2.30 pm a service being previously held at the private residence
