Obituary

MR. WILLIAM MARTINI, SPRINGFIELD. The news of the death of Mr. William Martini, which occurred at his residence, Springfield, on Sunday, the 10th ult., aroused sincere and wide-spread regret in the district and on the West Coast, where he was born (writes a correspondent). The deceased was the second son of Mr. and Mrs. F. Martini, of Stafford, West-land, and was only 27 years of age. His untimely death comes as a great bereavement to them and their seven daughters and two sons—one sister of deceased being a religious (Sister Marie St. Enda) of the Sisters of the Missions, Opunake. The late Mr. Martini is survived by his wife and one young daughter. During his illness he was attended by Rev. Father Hanrahan, of Darfield. The funeral was largely attended, the remains being interred in the Karoro Cemetery, Greymoutli, Rev. Father McMonagle officiating at the graveside.—R.l.P. —i 00-V
