He was for some years keeper of the Karori Asylum, and subsequently joined the lighthouse service, in which he had been engaged for 16 years—first at Pencarrow and Mana, and subsequently, for the la3t three years, at Cape Campbell. He emphatically died at his post. He hurried up the stairs for the purpose of lighting his lamps, and on reaching the top, sank down and died almost immediately from heart disease."
