      MR. C. M. WALLACE

      The sudden death yesterday afternoon of Mr. Charles Martin Wallace at the residence of his son, Mr. B. Wallace, 795 Childers road, came as a shock to his many friends. Born at Wanganui 65 years ago, Mr. Wallace was the son of one of the earliest settlers of the Wanganui district, Mr. Joseph Wallace, who survives his son, being now 98 years of age. Throughout his life Mr. Wallace was a clerical worker, his occupation being interrupted by the 1914-18 war when he went overseas with the ninth reinforcements.

      At the age of 24 Mr. Wallace married Miss Cathrine Anne Irwin at Wellington, and 14 years ago the couple came to Gisborne to settle. Mr. Wallace was engaged in the taxi business as a bookkeeper in Gisborne but had not enjoyed the best of health during the past 12 months.

      To mourn his loss Mr. Wallace leaves his wife, two sons and two daughters. They are Mrs. V. Chamberlain, Wellington, Mrs. T. Mosen, Wanganui, and Messrs. B. Wallace, Gisborne, and E. Wallace, Frankton Junction. There are also 10 grand-children.

      A service is to be held in Cochrane's chapel, William street, at 3 o'clock on Monday afternoon, after which the funeral will leave for the Taruheru cemetery.
