DEATH OF MR. M. PRICE.
With deep regret it becomes our painful task to record the death of Mr. Matthew Price, our late R.M, who died at five o’clock on Thursday, July 20, at the residence of his daughter, Mrs. Matthew \ wife of Mr, Matthews, manager of the Gisborne branch of the Bank of New Zealand, after a long and painful illness. Sterling honesty, integrity and justice characterised his whole life both public and private, May our great loss be his glorious gain. The funeral took place yesterday afternoon, the hearse being followed by a number of vehicles and equeatriams. C’a arrival at the cemetery some slight delay occurred on account of the grave not being completed. The bad state of the roads prevented many from accompanying the body to its final resting place.
