Newspaper Clippings
Young - Mr. R. H. Young - Car Inspector Killed,
Belfast Motor Accident, Tragic Death of Mr. R. H. Young, Arrest of Jarvey -
The death occurred early this morning under peculiarly distressing
circumstances of Mr. Robert H. Young, the well-known Belfast car inspector,
as a result of a collision near Greencastle between a motor car in which he
and four personal friends has made a run to Larne on Sunday afternoon, and
an outside car, driven by William McConnell, aged 19, Irish Quarter,
Carrickfergus, who was subsequently arrested on a charge of manslaughter.
The other occupants of the motor car were the owner, Mr. Fred Gray, dentist,
who carries on business at 385 Newtownards Road; Mr. William Aicken, 53
Upper Arthur Street; Mr. Hugh Bell, jun., who resides on the Ravenhill Road;
and Mr. Joseph McKinley, 22 Moorfield Street, off Ravenscroft Avenue. They
left Belfast shortly after two o'clock on Sunday afternoon, and proceeded to
Larne, where a stop was made to repair a puncture. The weather was almost
ideal for motoring, and the spin along the coast road in the car - a 12 h.p.
Sunbeam - was thoroughly enjoyed. The return journey from Larne was
commenced between nine and ten o'clock, and some time was lost through the
engine missing fire between Whitehead and Carrickfergus, necessitating a
stoppage while the defect was made right. The motor car then ran smoothly,
and all went well until about half-way between the tram terminus at
Greencastle and Fortwilliam Park, where the collision with the hackney car
took place. Mr. Fred Gray was driving the motor car which had the usual
lights, and the hackney car driver had also his lamps burning at the time.
The impact was very violent, and Mr. Young was struck a severe blow about
the region of the heart, collapsing immediately. The attention of Constable
J. W. Stratford, of Greencastle, who was on duty in the vicinity, was
attracted to the scene by a moan, and on going in the direction from which
the sound came he found Mr. Young sitting on the left side of the motor car,
in an unconscious condition, with his companions standing around. Realising
at once that the man's condition was very serious, the party motored with
all speed to the residence at Whitehouse of Dr. H. C. Manley, who expressed
the opinion that death had taken place. Dr. Manley accompanied the patient
to the Royal Victoria Hospital, where, after an examination in conjunction
with Dr. Harold Black, the surgeon in charge, it was definitely ascertained
that life was extinct. The other members of the party were terribly
distressed at the melancholy occurrence. Mr. McConnell, the driver of the
hackney car, who is in the employment of Mr. Edward Davey, Carrickfergus,
drove with the motor-car to Dr. Manley's house, and he was arrested by
Constable Stratford after the doctor's examination. The constable went to
the Royal Victoria Hospital with the deceased, while McConnell drove with a
couple of civilians to the Central Police Office in Chichester Street, where
he stated the circumstances of the occurrence and was lodged in the cells.
Happily the other members of the party were uninjured, but the motor-car was
considerably damaged. The body of the deceased is at present in the morgue
of the Royal Victoria Hospital. The circumstances of the regrettable
occurrence have been communicated to the City Coroner (Dr. James graham),
who has decided to hold the inquest at noon on Tuesday in the Old Recorder's
Court, Townhall Street. The late Mr. Young, who was about forty years of
age, resided at 76 Portallo Street. He was formerly in the employment of
Messrs. Workman, Clark and Co. Ltd., and about 13 years ago was appointed by
the City Corporation to the position of assistant car inspector. He was on
duty on the Donegall Quay on Sunday morning with the chief car inspector,
Mr. W. J. Adjey, for the arrival of the cross-channel steamers. A familiar
figure at all public functions in the city, he discharged his duties
tactfully and conscientiously, and was held in high esteem by all with whom
he came in contact. Deceased was closely identified with the Masonic Order,
being a well-known member of Lodge 373. Great sympathy has been expressed
with his wife in her tragic bereavement.
Police Court Proceedings, McConnell Remanded - In the Belfast Custody
Court, before Mr. Garrett Nagle, R.M., and Lieutenant-Colonel W. E. C.
McCammond, the young man Wm. McConnell, of Irish Quarter, Carrickfergus, was
charged with the manslaughter of Robert H. Young, at Greencastle, at 1-15
that morning. Mr. A. J. Lewis prosecuted, and accused was represented by Mr.
John S. Osborne and Mr. Wm. Tughan. Mr. A. A. Macaulay appeared for Mr. F.
Gray, the owner of the motor car. Constable J. W. Stratford said about 1-50
a.m. he was going along Shore Road, near Park Row, when his attention was
attracted by a moan. When witness got near he found a motor car drawn up
alongside the road. There were four men beside it. A man named Robert Young
was sitting in the motor and the others were standing alongside. Witness did
not see an outside car or any other vehicle there at the time. Witness
examined the injured man, who appeared to be in an unconscious condition. He
got into the car along with the others and took the man to Dr. Manley,
Whitehouse. In consequence of what the doctor said they took the man to the
Royal Victoria Hospital. Dr. Manley accompanied them. On arrival at the
Hospital the man was dead. On the way to Whitehouse they overtook the
prisoner's car. McConnell accompanied them to the doctor's, and after Mr.
Young had been examined by the doctor witness arrested the accused on the
charge of manslaughter. When cautioned he said, "I am sorry the accident
occurred." In reply to Mr. Osborne, witness said he could not say that he
heard any of the gentlemen in the motor say it was a pure accident. The
accused was perfectly sober. Both lamps on the hackney car were lighted. Mr.
Osborne - Do you know anything that would be more calculated to cause an
accident of the kind than two bull's-eye motor lamps? Mr. Lewis - Don't
answer that; it is pure argument. Further replying to Mr. Osborne, witness
said when they left for the hospital accused go ton his car, and,
accompanied by two civilians, drove to the police office at Chichester
Street. Mr. Tughan said the accused was only nineteen years of age, and had
never been in such a position before. He was a most respectable man, and he
(Mr. Tughan) asked their Worships to fix a reasonable bail. Prisoner was
remanded until Thursday, bail being fixed in two sureties of £20.
Shore Road Fatality. Inquest on Mr. Young. Accident Described by Motor
Driver. Verdict of the Jury. Sympathy with Bereaved Widow - To-day, at
noon, in the old Recorder's Court, the City Coroner (Dr. Graham) held an
inquest to inquire into the circumstances attending the death of Robert
Hamilton Young, a Belfast car inspector, who was the victim of the
lamentable motor accident which took place in the early hours of Monday
morning on the Shore Road, between Greencastle and Fortwilliam Park.

Burns, William - Church of St. John the Baptist,
Upper Falls - A meeting of the choir of this church was held in the
schoolroom on the 9th inst. The chair was occupied by Mr. C. J. Gould, who
introduced the business of the meeting, which was to make a presentation on
behalf of the choir to Mr. Wm. Burns, their late organist. Mr. T. Brown said
they were all extremely sorry to lose Mr. Burns' services. The presentation,
which consisted of a gold albert, was gracefully made by Miss McCance
(Suffolk House), who takes a deep interest in the choir. In the course of a
few appropriate remarks, she said, she regretted that owing to over-strain
Mr. Burns had felt unable to continue his good work in St. John's. Mr. Burns
thanked all present for their great kindness not only that night, but also
throughout their association together. He was glad to assure them that his
health was much improved. He reciprocated their good wishes, and heartedly
trusted that continued success would attend their voluntary labours in the
praise service of St. John's. The proceedings shortly afterwards terminated.

Shipcott - Telegraph 26th October 1914 - A
Fatal Leap - Volunteer's Sad Death While Going to Manoeuvres. An inquest was
held to-day, in the Royal Victoria Hospital, by the Belfast Coroner,
touching the death of William B. Shipcott (48), of 2 Lockview Road, which
occurred on Saturday afternoon from injuries received after jumping from a
motor char-a-banc which had got beyond control on the Upper Malone Road.
Evidence of identification was given, after which Stanley Northover, a
chauffeur in the employment of the Station Cab company, was called. He
stated that on Saturday afternoon he left the city with a party of 35 Ulster
Volunteers for Drumbeg, County Down. On the Malone Road, about half a mile
inside the city boundary, the hand-brake "binded" against the wheel, and the
car stopped. Witness took out the pin which connected the brake and
proceeded. While going up an incline beyond the "Dub" the driving chain
broke, and the car stopped, and then commenced to run backwards. The driving
chain breaking caused the footbrake to be ineffective, while he himself had
disconnected the hand-brake. They were about fifteen or twenty yards up the
hill when the chain broke. There was some disorder on the car, and witness
shouted to the party to sit still, but several of them jumped off. When the
brakes refused to act witness tried to "catch" the fence with the left front
wheel. Just as he got near the bank he noticed a man jump on to it, and then
slip and slide down. Witness turned the vehicle out on to the road again to
try and avoid the deceased, and so far as he could see the mudguard struck
him. In answer to Mr. M. H. Turnbull, representing the next-of-kin, witness
said after he had disconnected the hand-brake he had only the foot brake
left. The chain breaking prevented the latter from acting. If he had had the
hand-brake working he would have been able to stop the car, which had only
come out of Mr. Stringer's works on Friday, after being overhauled. He had
been driving for eight years, but had only been ten days in Mr. Stringer's
employment. He had not driven that particular char-a-banc before Saturday
morning. He thought deceased had jumped for the top if the bank and, missing
it, had slipped down. One of the men had helped witness to stop the car by
placing a plank under the rear wheels. Heard The Men Were Late. To Mr. C. J.
Jeerson, who represented the Station Cab Company - The reason he did not fix
the hand-brake when he stopped first on the Malone Road was because he knew
the men were late. They had only come down the hill two or three yards when
deceased jumped off. If the man had stopped on the car for another couple of
feet he would have been as safe as any of the others. To Mr. Turnbull - The
men did not tell him they were late. He heard them talking amongst
themselves. Alfred Dalzell, 27 Colenso Parade, stated that on Saturday he
was in charge of a party of thirty-five Ulster Volunteers, who left Cloraine?
(Chlorine?) Gardens about 2.15 p.m. by motor char-a-banc for Drumbeg, at Bladon Park, on
the Malone Road, the car stopped, and the driver did something to the
mechanism, after which the journey was resumed. After they passed the "Dub"
the car stopped on a hill, and began to move backwards. Witness got off, and
attempted to jam the rear wheel with a plank, but the latter was not of
sufficient thickness to be of much service. A number of the men jumped from
the car but witness did not see the deceased getting off. The car took a zig-zag course backwards and it was witness's impression that the driver was
attempting to prevent the vehicle from mounting either bank and thus
capsizing. When they went back to where deceased was lying they found that
he had been seriously injured. Replying to the Coroner, witness said he
thought the driver of the char-a-banc did everything he could to prevent a
fatality. He seemed to be in a hopeless position. D. Bradley, one of the
Volunteers, said he was sitting on the left of the driver, and when the car
commenced to slow down he spoke to Northover, who replied that something had
burst at the back. When the car started to go backwards witness got off at
the left hand side, and looking back, saw the deceased lying against the
ditch. The wheel of the car had not then touched him. Shipcott appeared
quite sensible, and when he saw the wheel coming in his direction bent his
legs to try and avoid it. The wheel appeared to crush his legs, and then the
car turned out on the road. Mr. Jefferson and Mr. Turnbull then addressed
the jury. Had Passed Trial Test. Mr. Arthur Stringer, Station Cab Co., said
that the car had been recently overhauled, and had passed a trial test on
Friday. On Saturday morning the char-a-banc had "done" a run to and from
Clandeboye with twenty persons, and there was no trouble with the brakes. He
could not understand why the bolt produced had snapped. If it had been
intact the hand-brake would have acted, and the car could have been stopped
at once. Dr. Greer described the injuries, and said that death was from
shock following fracture of the pelvis and rupture of the bladder. The jury
found in accordance with the medical evidence, and added that the injuries
were caused by the deceased being crushed by a wheel of the char-a-banc,
which through failure of the driving chain had got out of control, and
further that the occurrence was due to the deceased, through fear of
accident, jumping from the vehicle to the ground where he sustained the
injuries. They added a rider to the effect that in their opinion the driver
had done all in his power to save life.
Shipcott - Newsletter 28th October 1914 - An Ulster Volunteer's
Funeral - The funeral took place yesterday afternoon of the late Mr. William
Bradford Shipcott, 2 Lockview Road, Stranmillis, who was accidentally killed
under tragic circumstances on the Upper Malone Road on Saturday. Before the
removal of the remains a brief service was conducted in the house by Rev.

Graham, Lieutenant J. Lawson Graham, Tribute to
a Boardmills Officer - Particulars have now been received of the death in
action on 29th September of Lieutenant J. Lawson Graham, Royal Inniskilling
Fusiliers, son of Mr. S. Graham, Maple Vale, Boardmills, and nephew of Dr.
James Graham, city coroner. Writing to Mr. Graham, the Rev. W. G. Murphy,
C.F., says - "Your son fell in action on the morning of Sunday, 29th
September. We moved up to the attack, and it was as he was leading his
company forward very gallantly that he fell mortally wounded by a machine
gun bullet. He was one of the best among our officers, and a very good man
personally. We all loved him and feel a great sense of loss. His body was
sent back to be buried well behind our lines, which were pushing forward at
the time. He helped, and helped most signally (significantly?), to win an
advance that will be memorable in this division, and will do much to hasten
the end of the war." Lieut.-Colonel R. S. Knox, D.S.O. (Coleraine),
deceased's commanding officer, writes that Lieutenant Graham died the most
gallant death a soldier could die, leading his company in the forefront of
the advance. He was liked exceedingly by his men, with whom he was always on
the best of terms, and he had the rare gift of inspiring confidence in them.

Gordon Highlanders. Much sympathy is expressed with his parents in their
bereavement and also with the deceased soldier's wife and three little
children. At a meeting of the Ballybay Literary Club, held in the Masonic
Hall on Thursday, Rev. Canon Young, M.A., moved a vote of condolence with
Mr. Millar on the loss of his son. Mr. Wm. Mills, J.P., seconded the motion,
which was passed in silence. Mr. Millar has another son, Bertie, who has
been discharged as a result of severe wounds received on the western front

McFadzean, Private William Frederick - A
Young Citizen's Heroism (Newsletter 14th July 1916) Gave His Life for His
Comrades - Private W. McFadzean's Great Sacrifice :- The finest individual
deed yet recorded in connection with the great offensive movement which
began on the 1st July is to the credit of a gallant Belfast man, Private
William Frederick McFadzean, of the Royal Irish Rifles (Young Citizen
Volunteers), who sacrificed his life to save his comrades. The circumstances
under which Private McFadzean was killed are described by his company
officer, Captain James McKee, in the following letter to the young hero's
father, Mr. William McFadzean, Rubicon, Cregagh :- "I wish you to accept my
sincere sympathy in your great sorrow caused by the death of your son. You
will have great satisfaction in knowing that he died a hero's death. Our men
were in the assembly trenches, and bombs were being distributed. Your son
had a box passed to him, and in passing some bombs dropped out. In falling,
the safety pins fell out; and your son, realising the danger to his
comrades, flung himself on top of the bombs. He was killed, and two others
were slightly wounded. He saved the lives of a number of his comrades by his
action, and we are proud of him. His name has been sent forward to higher
authority, with recommendation for a decoration. I was not in the fight on
July 1st, as I was then at Army School. I am sorry I was not there, as I
believe our attack was magnificent. Our boys did exceptionally well."
Second-Lieutenant James Marshall, of the Royal Irish Rifles, South Antrim
Battalion, in a letter of sympathy to Mr. McFadzean, mentions that his
brother, Corporal Dave Marshall, of the Young Citizen Volunteers, "told me
to say that Willie fell just beside him, and by his heroic self-sacrifice
saved the lives of his comrades around him, earning their admiration and
gratitude which will never be forgotten by them. The late Private
McFadzean, who was in his 21st year, was formerly an apprentice in the
employment of Messrs. Spence, Bryson, & Co., Ltd., 41 Great Victoria Street,
and in this connection it may be mentioned that a member of the firm, Mr.
John B. Bryson, has written to the bereaved parents expressing his deep
sympathy with them in their great loss, and his appreciation of the
deceased's character. Private McFadzean enlisted on 22nd September, 1914,
and speedily gained the esteem and affectionate regard of his comrades, a
fact which is proved to demonstration by the numerous letters of regret at
his death written by those with whom he was serving. He was a bright young
man, of splendid physique, and it is to be hoped that his sorrowing parents
will have the consolation of seeing his great sacrifice officially
recognised.
(Newsletter 11th September 1916) Private William Frederick McFadzean, No.
14/18278, late Royal Irish Rifles - For most conspicuous bravery, While is a
concentration trench and opening a box of bombs for distribution prior to an
attack, the box slipped down into the trench, which was crowded with men,
and two of the safety pins fell out. Private McFadzean, instantly realising
the danger to his comrades, with heroic courage threw himself on top of the
bombs. The bombs exploded, blowing him to pieces, but only one other man was
injured. He well knew his danger, being himself a bomber; but without a
moment's hesitation he gave his life for his comrades. Born in Lurgan,
the late Private McFadzean, who was in his 21st year, was the eldest son of
Mr. and Mrs. William McFadzean, Rubicon, Cregagh, Belfast. He was
educated at Mountpottinger Boys' School, and the Trade Preparatory School of
the Municipal Technical Institute, and subsequently became an apprentice in
the firm of Spence, Bryson, & Co. Ltd., 41 Great Victoria Street. An
enthusiastic member of the Ulster Volunteer Force - No. 1 Battalion
(Ballynafeigh and Newtownbreda) East Belfast Regiment - he joined the Y.C.V.
Battalion of the Ulster Division on 22nd September, 1914, and shared without
complaint the hardships of Finner Camp during the bitter winter of 1914. He
was afterwards stationed at Randalstown, Seaford, and Liphook in the
Aldershot command, going overseas with his battalion in October, 1915. He
was about nine months in France when he made the supreme sacrifice under the
thrilling circumstances described. Manly, of splendid physique, and
possessed of a keen intelligence, he enjoyed the affectionate regard of his
friends and acquaintances at home, while letters from officers and men speak
eloquently of his popularity and efficiency as a soldier. Of his home life,
almost too sacred for public intrusion, it may be said that he was devotedly
attached to his parents, to whom he wrote with perfect regularity,
describing with a facile pen the scenes and incidents of life in the field.
Thoughtfulness for others was one of his outstanding characteristics, and in
this connection it is interesting to note that his appointment to the risky
position of bomber only came to the knowledge of his parents from an
indirect source. Since his death tributes to the memory of the gallant
dead have poured into the residence of Mr. and Mrs. McFadzean. Captain Jas.
McKee, his company officer, wrote: "You will have great satisfaction in
knowing that he died a hero's death. etc. (as above) Second-Lieutenant
W. R. Bell (Bangor), his platoon commander, concludes as appreciative letter
with the words: "I can only add that he was a splendid soldier - the life
and soul of his platoon, whether in billets or on the march - and he was in
the best of spirits when the thing occurred." These references may be
supplemented by a splendid tribute from Mr. John B. Bryson, a member of the
firm with which he had been serving his apprenticeship. "We all loved him,"
says his employer. "I never met a more even-tempered, obedient lad. He was
clever, quick, and had in him the making of a good man." The late
Private McFadzean was a member of the Central Presbyterian Association, and
the Governing Body of that organisation recently directed that a special
minute be recorded regarding his heroism. He was also a member of
Newtownbreda Presbyterian Church, where, at yesterday morning's service,
Rev. Dr. Workman made an appropriate reference to the gallant soldier who
gave his life for his comrades
Loughead - Sad Fatality at Bangor - A
distressing fatality occurred at Bangor railway station on Saturday night,

Saturday afternoon from his work, and subsequently travelled to Belfast by
the 4p.m. train to attend a meeting. After making some calls he left for
Bangor on the 10.15 p.m. train. About 11 o'clock that night he was found

was so badly injured that he died fifteen minutes after admission
Sullivan - (Telegraph, 19th December 1918) Irishman Last to Fall -
Mr. Beach Thomas's despatch, published on November 13th, contained a
reference to the last British soldier killed in the war - "a cyclist who had
served continuously since August, 1914." Letters received in London identify
the man as Private Edward Sullivan, of A. Co., 7th Corps, Cyclist Battalion,
son of Mr. D. Sullivan, of 10 Boleyn Road, East Ham - "Daily Mail"
McComb - Henry - Pretty Belfast Wedding -
(Telegraph, 29th December 1919) - Windsor Presbyterian Church was this

Henry, daughter of Mr. F. W. Henry, the well-known Belfast restaurateur, and
Mrs. Henry, 24 Adelaide Park, Belfast, was united in wedlock with Mr. C. H.
McComb, L.D.S., Edin., son of Mr. William McComb, and brother of Dr. S. W.

public. The service was conducted by the Rev. J. Irwin, D.D., and Rev. J.
McConaghie, D.D., with Mr. Kenny presiding with ability at the organ.
Miss Florence Henry, sister of the bride, acted as best man, the bride being
given away by her father. The bride's dress was of ivory satin and
brocade with a square train. She carried a bouquet of white chrysanthemums,
and wore a cluster of pearls, the gift of the bridegroom. The veil was of
fine white lace surmounted by a wreath of orange blossoms. The
bridesmaid was charmingly attired in flame-coloured georgette over gold
tissue, while her black hat was also trimmed with the latter material.
She carried a bouquet of yellow chrysanthemums, and wore a slave bangle, the
gift of the bridegroom. The bride's mother was dressed in mole
charmouse, with ivory lace and a gold panel, and she also carried a bouquet
of yellow chrysanthemums. After the ceremony a reception was held at
the residence of the bride's parents, when a large company were entertained.
The newly married couple left later on their honeymoon, which is to be spent
in Edinburgh. The bride's travelling dress was of nigger brown, with hat and
furs en suite.
Obituaries
Sloan - The deceased, Robert G. Sloan, jun., who
was a son of Mr. Robert G. Sloan, of the stationery department of Messrs. W.
& G. Baird, Ltd., was born in Belfast about thirty-seven years ago. Educated
at the Model School, he entered at an early age the same service as his
father, and was connected with the stationery end of the firm from then up
till the time of his demise - a period of over twenty years. In business
circles he won many staunch friendships, while in private life he was held
in the highest esteem by all who had an opportunity of appreciating his
upright and manly character, as well as his kind, generous, and deeply
sympathetic nature. In the realm of sport he was a well-known figure, being
a member of Cliftonville Football and Athletic Club, as well as being
identified with the Ulster Cricket Club and also the Ulster Bowling Club, in
whose matches he took an active part. He was connected with the Masonic
Order for many years, being a member of the City Temperance Lodge No. 481.
Although he did not identify himself prominently in the world of politics,
he was generally known to be a Unionist of the staunchest type. He was a
Presbyterian, and belonged to the congregation of the Great Victoria Street
Church, of which Rev. T. A. Smyth is minister. For a very considerable time
past his health had been far from satisfactory, and his illness having
latterly become more acute it was considered advisable that he should
undergo a course of treatment at Matlock. When in the Derbyshire resort his
condition, instead of improving, became rapidly worse, and, in deference to
his own expressed wish, he was brought back again to the city of his birth,
but alas! only to pass away on the very day of his arrival.
Moore - Mr. James Moore, Manager of Nomad's
Weekly - It is ever in times of deepest trouble that one experiences the
worth of true friendship, and so it would be unpardonable on my part if I
should not acknowledge -though I fear insufficiently- the expressions of
sympathy which have poured in on me in connection with the decease of my
father, who has been associated in the conduct of Nomad's Weekly since its
origin nigh on ten years ago. All who knew him knew one of the kindest
hearted and gentlest of men - one who never was known to utter a harsh word
against any individual. It is always sad to say "Farewell," and in this case
particularly sad to me so intimately associated both by kinship and business
ties. However, my grief and that of those he has left behind him in a home
where love and devotion ruled supreme is much alleviated by the hundreds of
kind and sympathetic messages of comfort tendered from all quarters of the
United Kingdom by readers, who thereby have shown themselves as friends. Now
resting far away from the busy haunts of the city, "After life's fitful
fever he sleeps well," though his memory will ever remain fresh with those
who claimed his acquaintanceship. Nomad
Anderson - Death of Mr. Adam Anderson, It is
with deep regret that we have to record the death of Mr. Adam Anderson,
which took place at his late residence, 8 Shaftesbury Square, after a
lingering illness. Mr. Anderson, who was well known in the southern part of
the city, was a gentleman of the highest character. His sterling qualities
and courteous disposition won for him a very large circle of friends,
amongst whom his death will be keenly felt. He was a member of the Church of
Ireland, and was warmly attached to the congregation of Christ Church, where
he was a worshipper for many years. He was a member of the select vestry,
both during the incumbency of the late Rev. Dr. Kane and of the present
rector, and was congregational treasurer for a number of years. In politics
Mr. Anderson was a staunch and devoted member of the Unionist party, and a
member of the Belfast Conservative Association. He was also a member of the
Orange Institution, and took a deep interest in everything pertaining to the
welfare of the Order, being one of the founders of the Star of Hope L.O.L.,
and for many years its treasurer. Mr. Anderson, who has passed away in the
prime of life, leaves a widow and two children, to whom much sympathy is
extended in their great loss.
Burns, William - The Late Mr. William Burns -
It is with feelings of regret that we have to announce the death of Mr.
William Burns, 18 Hutchinson Street, which occurred with startling
suddenness on the 4th inst. On that evening he attended a meeting of the
Grosvenor Unionist Club, of which he was president, in the Queen Victoria
Hall, Durham Street, and occupied the chair at the proceedings. While he was
seconding a vote of thanks to Dr. St. George, who had been one of the
speakers, he took suddenly ill, and although medical assistance was promptly
rendered by Dr. St. George and Dr. Alexander Burns, who was also called in,
he passed away while being taken home, the cause of death being haemorrhage
of the brain. Deceased, who was 75 years of age, had apparently been in his
usual state of health up to the time of the fatal seizure. He carried on
business for many years as a grocer, and was one of the most highly
respected members of the trade.
" " The
funeral took place yesterday afternoon of the late Mr. William Burns, of 18
Hutchinson Street, who died with startling suddenness on the 4th inst. A
short service was conducted in the house by Rev. L. P. Story, rector of
Christ Church, with which deceased had been so prominently identified, after
which the coffin was carried a short distance past the church in Durham
Street by the members of the select vestry, en route for the City Cemetery,
where a brief service was conducted by Rev. Mr. Story and Rev. N. E. Smith.
The chief mourners were Messrs. James M. Burns and Herbert Anderson,
grandsons; Robert Burns, brother; Isaac Pantridge (Dromore), Richard
Pantridge (Dromore), W. Livingstone (Lurgan), cousins; and Amaziah Gill
(Brookmount), brother-in-law. The ? was an exceedingly large and
representative one, and testified to the esteem in which Mr. Burns was held
by a wide acquaintanceship. The members of the Grosvenor Unionist Club, of
which the deceased was president, fell in as the cortege was leaving the
house, and there was a large attendance of representatives of the Orange
Order, with which he was very prominently identified; while the Grocers'
Association, of which he was a past president, was also represented. The
coffin was covered with a large number of beautiful wreaths, including those
from the select vestry of Christ Church, the West Belfast Unionist
Association, the president and members of the Board of Management of the
Belfast and north of Ireland Grocers' association, Grosvenor Unionist Club,
and the Grosvenor Road branch of the Women's Unionist Association. At the
men's class held yesterday afternoon in connection with the Church of
Ireland Young Men's Society, Mr. Samuel R. McKegney (assistant secretary)
spoke on "The Hope of the Resurrection," and in the course of his address
referred to the death of Mr. William Burns, who had been a member of the
society for almost forty years. It was in such events as this, he said, that
people could more fully realise the importance of the doctrine of the
resurrection, and apply it to their comfort and profit. The service in
Christ Church last evening was of a special nature, being partly a memorial
service in connection with the death of Mr. Burns. The anthem "And God shall
wipe away all tears from their eyes" was sweetly sung by the choir, and
other hymns of a suitable character were sung. Speaking from 1st
Thessalonians, iv., 13, the rector (Rev. L. P. Story) referred to the great
loss sustained by the church in the death of so faithful a member. He
emphasised the unwearied services, the loyal devotion, and the hearty
liberality of the late Mr. Burns. As a worker there were few to equal him,
filling the positions of Sunday school teacher, church warden, parochial
treasurer, and diocesan synods man. His love for God and His house was
always evident, and his love for his fellow-man and his King and country
never failed. In his removal their church had lost a father, each member has
lost a friend, their vestry had lost a wise counsellor, and their country a
true patriot. Summing up the preacher appealed for men to fill the vacant
place and prayed for grace to follow the Christlike example of him who had
gone before them a little way.
Wright - The Late Mr. Thomas Wright, formerly
Quartermaster-Sergeant of the Royal Irish Fusiliers, who died at his
residence 90 Oldpark Avenue, Cliftonville, yesterday. Deceased's period of
service in the Army extended over thirty-six years. He was actively engaged
in the Zulu War, for which he bore the medal, as well as one for meritorious
conduct. Not only did he give the best of his life in the cause of his
country but he had the unique distinction of sending four sons to serve in
the same corps, two being at present on the strength, one retired on
pension, and one died while in the line. That the martial spirit was not
confined to the make side of the late quartermaster's family has been proved
by the fact that one of his daughters is the wife of a member of her
father's regiment. Deceased, though for a considerable time ailing, had only
been confined to bed since Friday last, and his death came rather
unexpectedly. (Mabel Geraldine married Sergt. J. Ledley, R.I.F. 5th August

Graham, George - Death of Mr. George Graham.
Sincere sorrow will be evoked amongst a wide circle of friends at the
announcement of the death of Mr. George Graham, son of Mr. William Graham,
solicitor, 22 Lombard Street, Belfast, which, we regret to intimate, took
place at an early hour this morning. The late Mr. Graham, who assisted his
father in his professional work, had been laid aside for some past time with
pulmonary trouble. His condition was benefited considerably by residence at
Ballyholme in the summer, but unfortunately the winter season entailed a
set-back, and Mr. Graham passed away peacefully this morning at 3 Brooklyn
Villas, Ballyholme. The late gentleman, who was but 30 years of age, was
popular with his fellows to a degree, his urbanity of manner and geniality
of disposition making him a general favourite. For many years the family
resided at Donaghadee, and during that period the deceased took a leading
part in the sporting and athletic life of the town. He was secretary of the
Town Regatta Committee for several seasons, and was a prominent figure in
the local Rugby football organisation, which he captained one year and
assisted in a variety of other capacities. When the family returned to the
city to take up residence in the Belmont district. Mr. Graham became a
member of the Strandtown Unionist Club, in whose progress he was deeply
interested. His demise at so early an age has cut short a career of much
promise, and the sincerest sympathy will go out to the relatives in the
great loss which they have sustained. |
