OBITUARY

: MR. HENRY LAVERY, WELLINGTON. On Sunday, October 11, there passed away at his daughter's residence, Wellington, Mr. Henry Lavery, late of Charleston, West Coast. The deceased was a native of Tarbert, County Kerry. As a young man he worked on the goldfields of Victoria and New South Wales, and in 1866 came to Charleston, where he remained till within a few weeks of his death. He was a staunch Hibernian and a thoroughly practical Catholic, and took an active interest in all Church matters. He leaves a sorrowing wife and grown-up family of twelve to mourn their loss. On his deathbed he had the consolation of receiving the last rites of the Church at the hands of Rev. Father Hickson, S.M. The remains,' followed by numbers of mourners, were interred in the Karori Cemetery, Rev. Father Hickson again officiating.—R.l.P.
