SUDDEN DEATH OF A BANK MANAGER.
[BY TMiEGBAPH.— PRESS AS3OOIATION.] Invhkoakqill, Tuesday. News has been received of the death, in Melbourne, of Mr. Watson, who was formerly manager for the Invercargill branch of the Bank of New Zealand. The deceased gentleman was a few month* ago appointed to the Melbourne managership, and recently left to fill that position.
The deceased gentleman was hardly put the prime of life, and till the other day was in the enjoyment of robust health: the new* of his death has therefore come with a shock to his many friends. Mr. Watton was quite recently appointed to the Melbourne management of the bank, having been for about a quarter of a century ite manager at Invercargill, where he whs held in universal respect And esteem. He woe, we believe, equally appreciated by his directors, who regarded him as at once a safe and enterprising manager, of good capacity, And eminently trustworthy.
