MR. THOMAS CORR, DUNEDIN.

Thej) benzine explosion which '"occurred on board . the s.s. ,Moana at Port Chalmers a few weeks ago has had the effect of cutting short the career of .a very; promising young man, MivThomas Corr, who succumbed last week to the injuries he had received on that occasion (writes a correspondent)." The late Mr. Corr was a marine engineer in the service of the Union Steam Ship Company. • He was an earnest, practical Catholic, ths occasional difficulties of attending to religious duties which a. seafaring life brings with it having in his case the effect of making him all the more assiduous in the practices of religion whenever opportunities presented themselves He was the possessor of ' a thoughtful and kindly, nature, which drew to him many -friends, who will regret his -untimely erd He was attended during his last moments bj Rev. Father Corcoran, who also officiated .at' the graveside. — R.I. P. ? <w
