HEART FAILURE. ASHBURTON, July 13
Valentine Ellen, 75, married, died from heart failure while fighting a gorse fire that got beyond control on his holding at Staveley. A married daughter noticed the Maze, and going out, found Ellen dead. The clothing on the upper part of the body was slightly burned, but burns on the body were insufficient to cause death. Mr Ellen was Past Provincial Grand Master of the Manchester Unity of Oddfellows.
FARMERS’ UNION. WELLINGTON, July 13
