Miss O’Brien, matron of the hospital, is at present on holiday. A Sydney Press Association telegram announces the death of Mr Oeorge Watson Holdship, recently inspector for the New Zealand Insurance Co. The death of All Stephen Furness, M.P. for Hartlepool since 1910, is reported from London. He had large interests in numerous shipping and ship-building companies and iron and steel works.

Relatives in Stratford received news last week from Tasmania of the death of Mr John Low, only surviving brother of the late Mrs A. S. Hobbs, of Warwick Road. The late Mr Low spent six or eight weeks in the beginning ol 1910, with his sister in Stratford, whom he had not seen for many years. By his cheery, genial nature he made quite a number of friend* in Stratford, especially on the bowling green, members of which will regret to hear of his sudden death through heart failure.
