STANLEY ALBERT FERDINAND CALISÉ

The funeral took place on Friday afternoon of the late Mr. Albert Ferdinand Calisé. Who died at his aunt's residence in Craven-road, at the early age of 22. The first part of the service was conducted at the Parish Church, where he had been choir-boy and server for a number of years, the Rector (Rev. Lionel Majendie) officiating. The mourners included the Misses Todd and Calisé (aunts), also two boys in uniform, one of whom was a corporal in Mr Calisé's ambulance squad, and the other a member of his Bible class, who were sent by the captain to represent the St. Andrew's Church Lads' Brigade, of which deceased was lieutenant during his residence at Uxbridge.

Many friends were present in church. The coffin was of polished elm, and a brass Calvary cross covered the lid. Among the wreaths contributed by relatives and friends were “His sorrowing loved ones,” Senora A. Albeniz, Rev. A.H. Newbold, Mr. and Mrs W. Burton, Mrs Bell and family, Nurse Roche, Mr. and Mrs Harris, Master Jack Russell, Teachers at West-street School, officers and lads of the Uxbridge Company of the L.D., C.L.B., Fellow assistants at Waterloo House, Old assistants at the Drapery Bazaar etc.

The deceased, after serving an apprenticeship at the Drapery Bazaar, took an engagement at Uxbridge, but pneumonia followed an attack of influenza, he went to Mount Vernon Hospital, Hampstead, for open-air treatment. He was brought home early in November, but he gradually sank and died, being very patient under severe suffering. He was a worthy young fellow, and death at such an early age caused much sorrow among relatives and a large circle of friends.
