OBITUARY.
The death occurred at the Palmerston North hospital on Tuesday of Mi- C. F. Spiers, a well-known resident of Foxton for nearly 30 years and formerly of Karori, Wellington at the age of 56.

He was also a member of All Saints’ vestry and took a keen interest in the work of the church. He was a single man and is survived by both his parents, five brothers and one sister. His father is a native of New Zealand, being one of the first white children born in the Dominion. The funeral will take place to-morrow- (Friday) leaving the residence of deceased’s brother, Mr F. Spiers, Ravensworth Place at 1.30 p.m. for All Saints Church and thence to the Foxton cemetery.
