      Death of Mrs. Haddy.

      It was with sincere regrets that a wide circle of friends heard' of the death of Mrs. Lavinia Ellen Augusta 'Haddy, wife of Mr. Steve Haddy, of Durlacher Street, Geraldton, which occurred on- Tues day evening. The deceased lady, who was 72 years of age, had a serious illness some years ago,but of late had enjoyed reasonably good health, and was able to supervise the management of the household duties.

      During the evening meal on Tuesday her husband and daughter (Miss Lorna Haddy) realized that she was not so well and she retired to her room. A doctor was called in, but she gradually grew worse and passed peacefully away.

      Born in Geraldton, the deceased was a daughter of the late Mr. Alfred Pead, who in the early days of Geraldton conducted a butchering business in the town. In her younger days she was a fearless horsewoman. Of a kindly disposition she was greatly esteemed by her friends.

      In addition to her husband she leaves a son (Mr. Alfred Haddy), who is at Albany, and two daughters Mrs. Grace Chrystal, of Malaya, and Miss Lorna Haddy. Geraldton. She is also survived by two brothers (Messrs. C. A. Pead and H. E. Pead, of Perth) and four sisters (Mesdames Enright A. W. Haigh Ottaway and Molloy, of Perth). The funeral took place yesterday afternoon in the Anglican Cemetery Utakarra, the service being con ducted by the Rev. K. B. Halley. The pall hearers were Messrs. A. Meadowcroft , L.' J. Chapman, A. P. Stirling and H B Pass.
