Mrs Henderson and Mrs Seaman, neighbours, kindly came at once to render assistance, and Dr (’rnickahank came from town. Unfortu-
nately, however, nothing could he do ie, as Mrs Marshall had passed away, being evidently dead when her husband fit st returned to her ro.im. The matter was reported to the ponce. Mrs Marshall will be better remembered in town as Miss Richard, having lived for a number of years with Mrs D. Henderson, of Mill Road.
