Death of Mr F. Ballard

We much regret to record the death of Mr Frederick Ballard, of Buntingford, which occurred at Royston early on Wednesday last.

Mr Ballard, who was a son of the late Mr and Mrs W. Ballard, of the Railway Hotel, has farmed lands in Layston and Aspenden parishes for several years.

He retired from the publican's business over two years ago, and lived in one of his houses on the London Road. He was a man of quiet disposition.

He was a Guardian and District Councillor for the parish of Aspenden in 1904, and has filled the post of Parish Councillor and Overseer.

His death, at the age of 62, came as a surprise to his many old friends in Buntingford.
