Death of Mr E. Beamiss

It is with much regret that we record the death of Mr E. Beamiss, of Cottered. 

The deceased, who was working at Ealing, left his work as usual on 4th February, but collapsed in the road. He was at once removed to hospital, where his condition became worse, and he died within a few hours of being admitted.

The deceased was 52 years of age. The remains were brought to his home at Cottered on February 6th, and the funeral took place at the Parish Church on February 8th, when a number of relatives and friends were present.

Much sympathy is extended to his family in their sad loss.

Whist Drive and Dance

On Wednesday, January 27th, a whist drive and dance was held in the school. About 60 were present, and all seemed to thoroughly enjoy the whist.

Prizes were won by: Ladies - 1 Mrs Hull, 2 Miss Mean.

Gents - 1 Mr J. Gravestock, 2 Mr Hills.

A prize for the highest score at the interval was won by Mrs Sheppard. Mrs Sanders presented the prizes.

During refreshments, a mat, made chiefly by the Guild children, was raffled and won by Mr J. Gravestock. Dancing began about 10 p.m. and was brought to a close by a waltz at 12.

After defraying expenses, part of the proceeds are to be handed over to the treasurer of the Cottered Cricket Club.
