Notes |
Obituary.MR THOMAS BROUGH.It is with sincere regret that we have to chronicle the sudden demise of Mr Thomas Brough. Although a recent arrival in Kawhia he was well known and highly respected. On Saturday last, whilst working on the wharf road, he was seized with a paralytic stroke, and died 16 hours later from cerebral hemorrhage.
A native of Wanganui, he was educated and brought up in Akaroa, where he entered into farming pursuits. He was well known there as one of the best oarsmen on the harbour and won many races in conjunction with his late brother-in-law, Mr Luke Perham. Some years later he migrated to Taranaki, and was known there as a successful road contractor. At one time he was licensee of tho Waipuku Hotel. While there be became a member of the Midhirst Masonic Lodge (Hinemoa 786 S.G.) The opening up of the Kawhia district attracted him here some months ago, and he was endeavoring to develops the fishing industry. A widow and fourteen children (the youngest being only five years of age) have been left to mourn their loss.
The funeral took place on Monday, a large number of residents following the cortege. The service at the graveside was conducted by the Rev. B. Mitchell.
