SUDDEN DEATH.
"While digging potatoes in a paddock behind his house yesterday at mid-day, a farmer, Thomas Breen, of 113 Garden road, Feudalton, dropped dead.' His wife, who was working with him at the time, stated that, beyond remarking on the heat, deceased gave no indication that anything was wrong. Ho was strong and healthy, ;.nd had not been to a doctor for two years. Dr. Brown was called, but found life extinct, death being due, apparently, to heart failure. Whether or not an inquest will be held is undecided.
