Death, George
Evening Post 19 September 1919
There passed away at Eltham recently Mrs. Samuel Death at the age of 78 years. Born in 1841 on the ship Thomas Sparks, just before reaching Wellington Heads, Mrs. Death settled at Petone with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Riddler. Mrs. Death was married in 1863, and was therefore within four years of her diamond wedding. After living forty years in the Hutt Valley, where their family were all born and brought up, Mr. and Mrs. Death went to Taranaki. Mr. and Mrs. Death both passed through the vicissitudes of the early settler''s life, Mr. Death having served in the Militia in the troubles with the Maoris. She leaves a husband and family of nine, eight sons — Messrs. Arthur (Levin), George (Thames Valley), Henry Frank, William, Thomas, Norman, and Sidney (all of Fraser-road, Eltham), and one daughter, Mrs. T. Hudson (Palmerston North).

MR. BUCKRIDGE''S APPLICATION.
In reference to the above application, Mr. Inspector Atcheson informed the Bench that there was an objection to renewing Mr. Robert Buckridge''s license for a public-house, known as the Albion Hotel, in the Upper Hutt, on the grounds that he was under a judgment of the Supreme Court for a breach of the peace.
Mr. Ludlam said that at a recent Licensing Meeting an application for the transfer of the license to Mr. Buckridge''s son-in-law had been refused, and that it was then considered that Mr. Buckridge himself should not have his licence renewed, but to show that the Bench did not wish to cause him any pecuniary loss, he thought that if anyone, not belonging to the family, wished the license transferred to him it might be done. After some further discussion, it was decided that the case should be adjourned for a fortnight.

Mr. David Hughey''s Application.
The application of Mr. David Hughey for a license to sell spirituous liquor at his store in the Upper Hutt (sic), which he was desirous of converting into a public house, was refused.
